A Heavy Frost.

This section was visited by heavy
frost last night and almost unprece-
dented low temperature for this sea-
son. Ice formed in various places in
the vicinity and there is no doubt
that serious injuries were Inflicted
upon the peach crop and other fruit
tree buds. Fruit growers of conser-
vative judgment are unanimous tina
great injury was done the buds and
that there is little likelihood of a
yield of any size during the coming
season.
1t was stated that the continued cold
weather of the last two weeks had al
ready done serious damage, but that
the injury last night was graver rs
the frost followed rain and the buds
contained moisture which froze. This,
it was stated, is almost sure TO do SER
ious damage.

NAVY VS.. ARMY.
Coming Regatta a Most interesting Event
Between The Academies.

The entry OF a Naval Academy
eight in the regatta on the Hudson on
June 26. is admitted 10 be one Of the
most interesting events in college
sport OF recent years. The doings OF
Uncle Sam naval and military wards
never fail 10 excite interest, whether
il is in the line of hazing. class fights
or athletics and the success OF the
mishipmen in securing the consent
OF the Secretary of the Navy 10 n
trip from Annapolis 10 meet other in
stitutions in an athletic competition,
is an absolut IL unique event and
we'll calculated TO arise more than n
passing interest.
1t cannot be denied that the work
Of Annapolis and West Poi IT in va
rious lines during the past few years
has been OF "A kind which would at
tract attention merely from an athletic
standpoint had the Institution no spec
ial claim upon the public interest.
In rowing the midshipmen have eer-
tainly done WORK in the past two sea-
sons which entitlo them TO be consid-
cred among the big rowing colleges
and make their entry ut Poughkeepsie
a source Of distinct additional inter
est.
eOf the eleven last races rowed by
the Naval Academy crew extending
over the seasons oc 1905 and 1906 and
the race with Georgetown this year,
the Navy has won ten. Georgetown
has been defeated three times, Yale,
Colubmia, and the Ariels of Balti-
more, twice each and the University
of Pennsylvania once and the only
defeat was administered by the latter
crew.
During the larger part of the week
the crew has been arranged by Coach
Glendon as follows: Bow, Davis;
?, Bagg; 8, Prichard; 4, White; .,
Leighton: 6, Rockwell; z, Mckee;
stroke, Capt. ingram; cONswain, Rob-
erts. There are some changes from the
arrangement of the crew in the race
against Georgetown. leighton has
been moved from bow to take Mont
gomery's place at !, while Davis,
who rowed Z, has gone to bow. Nc
kee, a veteran of last season, who was
unwell on the day Of the Georgetown
race, has resumed his old place at Z.
The arrangement has put more
weight in the body of the boat and
somewhat increased the general aver.
age of the crew. Leighton weighs
10 DOuluS anu - II ntdNy Ilatit AOt
bow, while Davis is IL pounds
lighter. Mckee is a little heavier
than Montgomery, whom he replaces,
and has more strength and exper-
fence.
The second crew has been rowing
during the week as fol lows: Bow,
Parker; ?, Kinkaid; 3, Richardson
4, Stoer: 8, Magruder; 9, Montgom-
cry; 2, Friedell stroke, Stevenson
coxswain, Williams. The average of
this crew is about five pounds below
that of the first crew. With one ex-
ception, all of the members had ex-
perience under Coach Glendon' S coach
ing in Que of the minor crews last sea-
son.
1t is claimed that the Navy has a
wonderful crew, or that it is sure of q
high place in the big event, but there
is no doubt that the prospects of
strong crew are good and there is a
general realization that the Academy
has the best opportunity TO make
place for itself in aquatics that it has
ever been given.

New Musical Comedy al The Academy Of
Music Next Week.


On Monday evening next, at the
Academy, of Music, Baltimore, the
Lee Rod Amusement Company, Inc,
will present fer the first time on any
stage, the musical fantasy Noah S
Ark whose author is Clare Kum-
mer, a young woman who has long
been known to the public as a writer
of popular and successful songs,
among them the notable favorite-
'sDearie.
The very title of this piece gives
hint of something new and interest
ing in stage offerings, and it takes
no great stretch of the Imagination
to people the theme with dozens of the
attractive figures of childhood days
Noah, the ark, the animals, Noah S
sons, Shem, Ham and Japhet, and
even their wives. 1t is said that Mrs.
Hummer, with the license allowed to
dramatists, has introduced many other
characters into the story, among them
one "Bill," the bo'sun of the Ark,
who has all the work TO do and will
be impersonated by the well-Known
comedian, Harry Bulger, who has al
ready been identified in a most impor-
tant way with some of the leading
musical successes of recent times.
The musical numbers are decided
ly novel and beautiful, it is said, in
Guiding one entitled merry Co
Round which introduces carrousel
ON the stage also for the first time.
Maurice j. Lehmayer, manager of the
Academy of Music, is president of
the Lee-Rod Amusement Company,
the producers of the piece, and in the
company which supports Harry Bal
ger. the star comedian, he has placed
his protege, Miss MAZDA Snyder. in
the role of the soubrette, Tess, -
which is believed to be that of a
dainty, fun-loving lass who goes hand
