Admiral Sands said the instructions in
boxing nave nothing to do with any pre-"
disposition to nghtlng at the academy,
and that hereafter there will be no fist

Chesapeake Beach.

The hotels at Chesapeake Beach are do
ing a rush business. All of them are full
and most of their prospective guests are
being turned away for want of accommo-
dations. The permanent colony is having
the time of its life, for no season has ever
been more attractive. The men come up
to the city each morning to business and
the other members of the family spend the
whole time gaining health and strength
and enjoying the recreations the Beach
offers. Fishing grabbing and sailing take
up most of their waking hours. The daily
visitors, OF course. are far more numerous
and appearances indicate they have more
exciting If not more enjoyable time They
like to crab, as the crowds on the pier tes-
tify, and to dance. as the pavilion always
shows while the band is playing. The
carrousel swings a laughing crowd In a
gay circle and from the scenic railway
come feminine shrieks and cries of delight
The theater draws another crowd and the
bathing beach, where the only salt water
bathing around Washington is obtainable,
is always filed.
