SALE OF HISTORIC RACE TRACK
Special Dispatch to Evening Capital

Baltimore, Md, April l2.-This is
the date set by the court for the sale
at public auction of the famous Pim-
lico race track, and unless the Mary
land Jockey Club succeeds i'll saving
the property by bidding it in the
land will probably be cut up into
building lots. This will not interfere,
however, with the approaching spring
meeting of the jockey club. The sale
of Pimlico marks the passing OF one
of the most famous race courses in
the East. Pimlico's most memorable
contest was the great race during the
fall meeting of 1877, i'll which Pierre
Lorillard's celebrated horse Parole
was the winner. The race was a two
mile and half three cornered event,
with Parole, Ten Broeck and Tom
Ochiltree as contestants. To witness
the race in which such celebrated en-
tries were scheduled people from all
over the United States fiocked TO Bal
timore, and so great was the interest
in the affair that Congress adjourned
to allow its members to attend.

A CURIOUS HOUSE BOAT
Used as Laborer's Cabin at Tne
Naval Academy.

Annapolis and the Naval Academy
are becoming famous through Leslie's
Weekly. and the artistic photographs
of Mrs. Charles r. Miller, of Balm
more. If in no other way. Scarcely
an edition of Leslie's is published that
does not contain some attractive
views or pictures of people aud things
around Annapolis.
The latest-is in this weeks edition.
April 13. The picture is one of the
curious looking houseboat at the Ma
val Academy, showing comfortable
cabin built on an old scow and used
as a boarding place by laborers employ
ed in sinking artesian wells on the
Naval Academy grounds. In her story
Mrs. Miller says:
lone of the most unique houseb0ats
in existence has recently been built at
the Naval Academy at Annapolis.
This odd-looking water craft is not for
the use of the future officers of Uncle
Sans new navy, but is a home for
several workmen who are sinking arte-
sian wells on the grounds The work
of sinking these wells does not permit
the wearing of fine clothes during
working hours, and the labor is of
such a character that the men are
tired when the day is done and do not
care to fix up.
They asked permission to build a
shanty near their work in which they
might live and avoid boarding out in
the town. This was refused by the
authorities at the naval school, and
the company who had the contract in
charge had an old scow towed up the
Severn and house erected upon it..
The structure is built of wood covered
with heavy black building paper put
on with brass nails which glisten in
the sunlight like myraids of stars
The men do their own cooking and
are very good housekeepers. A foot
bridge about 30 feet long leads from
the shore, ending just in front of the
refrigerator. which is kept on deck for
lack of space inside. The whole make
up Of the houseboat is complete in
every way, and the men say that they
sleep like children, undisturbed by
the noises of a town boarding house. "

FEASTED GUESTS ROYALTY.
PAINTERS CELEBRATE AN
NIVERSARY OF UNION.
Give a Smoker And Pleasing Lit
erary And Musical Program
to Their Many
Friends.

In celebrating the second anniver-
sary OF the organization of the local
union No 9SS of Painters, Paperhang-
ers and Decorators last night the mem
bers of the local did themselves proud
They provided an evening of the great
est enjoyment to the large number of
members and invited guests who took
advantage of the pressing invitations
which were sent out.
IL was an exceptionally ENJOYABLE
occasion and the entertainment COM
mittee composed of Fred HarbeCk,
chairman; w. j., Syms, 60. =. Ever.
son, J. ~ Elder and III. III. Miller,
were warmly congratulated ON the
able manner i'm which they had ar
ranged details. All other members
of the union also became part of the
committee and gave their guests the
time of their lives
The affair was supposed TO be a
smoker, but the evenings entertain
ment included many other features
than the wooing of the Lady..N icotine.
\ large spiced ham, in which the
spices formed the number of the local.
was "A feature of the gastronomical
end OF the entertainments and TO which
all did full Justice. 1t was the offer
chin and as result he has become an
oracle on hams.
While the smoker proper was in full
blast and each guest was doing his
best 90 color the high art, clay pipes
which had been furnished, together
with large quantities of tobacco to
each guest, the room was as London
fog. The musical and literary por-
tion of the program provided for the
entertainment of those present was of
most pleasing nature
The speakers were introduced by
Mr.. Fred Harbeck, who made n few
remarks anent the occasion. The first
speaker was Mr.. Hugh Il. Ri ley, and
he was followed by Mr.. James French
Strange, AS representing the employ
ing painters. Mr.. MoGuissel spoke
IN behalf of the electrical workers and
delivered two selections in German
dialect, followed by a song entitled,
"When Man Falls in Love. ("
Mr.. Harry III. Miller made several
remarks in behalf of the painters, in
the course OF which he stated that the
Painters Union was organized in
1915. Roland Brown spoke in behalf
OF the steam engineers, and Mr.. Aaron
l.. Goodman for the business interests.
A very pleasing violin solo was rem
dered by MIR. Simon Goodman, ac-
companied by Mr. Purlitz. Solomon
Burtis, president of the Sharks Club,
was present with his phonograph and
| several pleasing selections were rem
| dered.
Mr.. Randall Jones tickled the worries
and the Kelley brothers did their in
imitable stunt on violin and guitar
Pleasing was the solo by Mr.. Merrel
Stone. Taken altogether the evening
was very pleasantly spent and it is
assured that the enjoyment afforded
those present will long remain in their
memory.

given to whining, and somebody is al
ways stepping ON "their feelings, in
deed they keep their feelings spread
out everywhere.
The lecturer deplored sensational
preaching, which produces lamentable
iciness in the pulpit. Preaching on
things that have no connection with
the Gospel. He described that sad.
damp and chilly object-the swell in
the pulpit, especially the swelled head.
The scolding preacher, the clerical
dude, the preacher that lacks common
sense were touched upon. Prolixity
puts ice in the pulpit. He described
the preacher who never knows when
to stop. He breaches the sermon into
you, then out of you, aud has fifteen
thly,a finally" then "just one word
more and lastly and the man who
gets up and goes ont thinks it is lever
lastingly. He strikes the nail on
the head, sends it clear in, splits the
plank, then strikes his thumb before
he will stop, and often begins all over
again.
DIR. Flippo said church music of
the high -falutin, operatio, theatrical
choir puts ice into the pulpit. 1t has
a grating, terrific, excruciating effect.
Chanting, congeals and stops the
souls flow when improperly done.
The highest type of music of today
is often the lowest type of melody.
He illustrated by the ridiculous way
choirs sing Solomon in All His
Glory Was Not Arrayed, - etc. Often
the word 'arrayed' is repeated seven
teen times. After the soprano, alto,
tenor, base and all have sung "Was
Not Arrayed, Was Not Arrayed, " in
definitely, an old deacon exclaims
'Well / hope they'll have Solomon
dressed after awhile. I" 1t is equally
ludicrous the way 1.-THE Oil Ran
Down Aarons Beard is sung.
DR.. Flippo's illustrations of this
was most humorous. He closed his
lecture with saying that Christ Cruel
fed should be the theme of the pulpit
and said the most thrilling scene is
a saved man telling his fellow men the
story of the cross. He said if your
pastor is icy thaw him out for sympa-
thy and kindness will melt him. The
