COMPARTMENT OF FIT. McHENRY.

With the intention of making the
bombardment of Fort McHenry dur
ing Old Home Week the most spec
tacular affair ever witnessed, the
Maryland Homecoming Association is
arranging for warships and men to
participate in the great pyrotechn1c
exhibition that is to form the second
of the two big features of Tuesday OF
the week Of celebration.
It is believed there will be no diff
ficulty in having warships ordered
here for the occasion, and these Will
be reinforced by the vessel OF the
naval militia and such others as may
be available for the purpose. The
soldiers that are sent here by the
government will constitute the garrl-
son of Fort McHenry, in CONJUNCTION
with the state military forces, which
are to be ordered out for the occasion
in their entirety. The battle that
will be waged between the attacking
fleet and the garrison will be a noisy
but harmless one. 1t will be accom-
panied by all the excitement of real
engagement, but will spend twice the
powder, make twice as much noise,
be Illuminated by ten times as much
fire and be productive of an endless
amount of smoke.
1t will begin well before dusk and
continue we'll into the night. Thous-
and and tens of thousands of spcctat-
ors may witness it from the shores OF
the river, and thousands more will
make the trip to the scene OF action
on the excursion boats, that will make
the occasion one of special trips to the
vicinity of the fort.
AS soon as the line of the big mill
tary parade early in the day is broken
the sailors from the various ships will
proceed by launches to their respect
i've vessels and the soldiers will go to
the fort. There will be short re-
spite from military duty while the
men are at a well-earned mess and
then hostilities are to begin.
Police boats are to keep excursion
boats with their crowds of sightseers
out of the line of action, but there
will be ample anchorage at points OF
vantage for the ships that carry the
festival throngs to the vicinity OF the
mimic war. Thousands will also
have an opportunity to view the bat
tie from the extensive waterfront with,
out betaking themselves to boats.

The Kiss.

A kiss is peculiar proposition--of no
use to one, yet absolutely bliss to two.
The small boy gets it for nothing, the
young man has to steal it and the old
man has to buy it. The baby's right, the
lovers privilege, the hypocrite's mask.
To young girl, faith; to married wom-
an, hope; and to an old maid charity.
The bliss of the kiss however, is frequent
ly lessened, or lost entirely on account of
offensive breath, of one or both of the
participants caused by indigestion or dys-
pepsia. There is no occasion for this con-
dition though for the reason that Rydale's
Stomach Tablets will soon correct the
stomach trouble and do away with the
bad breath. They 1.-THE Stomach Tablets
not the kiss] are guaranteed by DR..
James X. Waters. Directions: Take two
boxes Rydale's Stomach Tablets and fol-
low up with the kiss as often as conven-
lent.

Policeman Roughly Handled.

On Sunday afternoon last at Penmar
park, policeman Buck saw man on one
of the horses of the merry-go-round
smoking pipe, and as he passed by
knocked the pipe from the mans mouth.
After the circuit had been made the man
dismounted and went to the policeman
for an explanation. After some words
the policeman was invited outside of the
building. He accepted and as soon as he
stepped out was knocked down and beat
and kicked about the head and face by
the man who smoked the pipe. Buck
was taken to Baltimore on the Fast Mail
his face terribly disfgured and carrying
his left arm in sling. The arm was re-
ported broken.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(rRoM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT


WASHINGTON, D. c., AUGUST 24TH.
Interest naturally has been center
ed for the week on Secretary Taft's
speech, which was looked for
to give the keynote of his president
ial campaign. 1t did this very effect
ually, and told the politicians what
they feared already, that the program
of Mr.. Taft, if nominated and elected,
and there is very little doubt OF the
election if he secures the nomination,
would be practically that OF President
Roosevelt in the seven years OF his
incumbency, OF course, the reloin-
der of Senator Foraker to the speech
of Mr.. Taft showed that there is a
serious danger of Republican split
in the next campaign. But it is safe
to say that when the time comes,
Republicans of all shades of opinion
will be found working shoulder to
shoulder, and it will be the only
story over the Democrats getting into
big internecine row just at the mo-
ment the Republicans are getting out
of one.
The matter of coal for the trans
port fleet is a serious one. The most
of the coal is bought in Japan because
it car, be had there cheaper, and the
transports bring back enough in bal
last to last them for the return trip.
Also it is cheaper to coal in Japan
than it is in the United States. But
there is never any telling when the
ports of Japan might be closed to us
for coaling, and for this reason the
government is very anxious to estab-
lish a good coal base on this side OF
the Pacific, and would even better
like to get some device for coaling at
sea so that in case of necessity the
GOLFERS could meet the transports at
sea and supply them there. The
navy has tried lot of the sea coaling
contrivances, and has one now that
is used in case Of urgent necessity.
But there has never been anything
entirely satisfactory for the purpose
produced up to date.
The government clerks, OF whom
there are some 25, 1000 in Washington,
have been feeling the pinch of in
creased living expenses, and have
made vain efforts in the past to get
their salaries raised. That has prov
cd unavailing, and now they have ar
ranged to start cooperative store
after the manner of the Army and
Navy stores" in London. The gist
of this plan is to buy at wholesale
prices and sell to the members at
cost after adding just enough profit
to pay running expenses. There has
already been enrolled a membership
of 5000 government clerks and the
store is scheduled to open for business
in about ninety days. If it succeeds
it will be an object lesson in cooper
alton for the whole country.

THE DIAMOND
NEW LONDONS
 ARE LEMONS
Waterbury Went to Sleep and Woke Up With a Victory :
 Other Results.

Dan 0'Neil handed out rain checks
 yesterday afternoon up in Springfield,
 stating that the game was so poor, even though 1t had gone nine innings, that it would be a shame to take the
 money which was certainly the case in this city when Waterbury defeat ed New London by the score of g to 5. The New London manager for yesterday, whoever he may be, Sam
 Kennedy was down in Philadelphia looking up players, should have re- turned his share of the gate receipts to Manager Durant. The game was
 the farciest of farce comedies and Ii
 the home team cared to, 1t would
 have won by the score of about 20 to

 in the hole, if Waterbury exerted it.
 self, the Whalers would be about "steen" under the board. They are
 an awful aggregation in their pres
 ent condition, and it is miracle how
 they win game. The 400 fans who braved the cold weather and the
 chance of witnessing game with
 the ''punky" scent about it could not
 enthuse, and the only human being
 or any other thing that woke up the
 sleepers was when Red" Rorty,
 who has come back to the bush,
 walked on the field in the third
 inning to relieve Raub and Me-
 Craine who were doing the umpiring.
 The rooters were tickled to see The
 Roaring One and were not slow in
 making him realize It.. The game
 took on little more life then; any
 game becomes uninteresting when
 the umpiring is done by players but
 just imagine game with New Lon-
 don being played that way. If the
 players had stayed umpiring, the
 fans in the stand who were a trihe cold might have fallen asleep anu frozen to death. The magnates of this Bush organization may think the are wise ones, but the crowds in those cities where New London plays do not agree with them. In the first five innings Waterbury made
 (only) eight runs on nine hits and few errors by the visitors Every body was taking whack at the ball and the infielders were kept running around like group of school boys. First it was Mickey" Finn who was beating it, then O'Neill would get a shacker and just to let Rankin know the game was not over, he would be sent on a merry chase. Up until the eighth inning the New London come- dians had pounded Eddie Farley for two hits. But in this round some one said circus day was not far off and just to give the spectators run for their money New London made a few hits and Waterbury contributed with couple of errors. A quintet of hits including a double and triple were clipped of Farley and totaled | five runs. But it was the last gasp of the victims, and no one really | thought they had a chance to win. Waterbury chalked up another in the | eighth and and few minutes later the lambs were filing out the gate. | The score:
