TAKEN DARE OF.

Under the head OF "Alexandrla Hos

pidity" the Bait more Sun Of this morn
ing prints the following
DR.. ID. P. Curtis, well known physi-
clan of Annapolis, So years old, was
taken to police headquarters this evening
In Alexandra, under the impression OF
the authorities of that place that be was
not able to take care OF himself. Lstsr
In the evening, upon his insistence oil
his responsibility, he was accompanied
BY the authorities Of Alexandra TO 40
electric train, which he boarded 81 ~
o'clock for Washington ca route 10 MS
home In Annapolis. A..
After he had been taken TO The Alex
aadris headquarters the police OF tnal
Mace telephoned to the central ofhce IN
Washington asking the detective cniei
here 10 communicate with the AnnaP-
oils authorities. Inssmuch as the care
vss outside the District Jurisdiction, the
Alexandra police were advised to COM
muuicste directly with the chiefof police
of annapolis, with whom DR.. Curtis
claimed to be we'll acquainted. This wfs
done, and the Annapolis chief replied:
al know DR.. Curtis very well. lie is
an estimable gentleman"
DR.. Curtis gave his address as ITO
West g. rect, Annapolis. He was searched
BY the Alexandria police and WIS found
to have $40 pinned inside one OF his
stockings. The telephone message to
Annapolis cost 80 cents, which was de-
Quoted from bis funds, and when he was
placed aboard car he possessed 5O
cents less than when the police OF Alex
andria took charge Of him.
The facts in the case are these: Inc
gentleman In question was wandering
simlessly about King street claiming he
was rich and had on his person $500.
He was followed by some people, who II
such had been the case, would have re-
lieyed him of what money he had. He
did not seem to know who he was at
frat, when stopped In front of prom
inent business house on King street by
several citizens. The man was we'll
dressed and excited the curiosity OF men
who we're anxious to know who he was.
Just as he was proclaiming about bis
riches Chief Goods of the police depart
ment came along and asked him who ne
was. He did not say, but the chief, not
knowing whether he had money or not
took him to the ststlon and placed him
in his own room, and then 1t was sscer-
tanned that he had two $40 bills pinned
to his underwear. 1t was then learned
that the man was a citizen OF Annapolis
and he was placed aboard the electric
train for Washington. The writer of the

THE RACES YESTERDAY.

The races of yesterday between the
motor boats of Washington, between
that city and Marshall Hall, was very
tame affair. Not only we're the boats Of
an inferior quality but not more than q
bali dozen took part. The accident
which happened to the Augusta, owned
by Admiral Gaines, precluded that ost
fIom taking part in the races of the
Alexandrisns yesterday. Several men,
bers of the racing feet of this city made
the journey from here, when the other
boats passed this city, aud reached
Marshall Hall long before the
Wsshingtonians. AS has been men
toned before the yschtsmen OF this city
are exceedingly anxious to have speed
boats from other cities come here and
test their speed qualities. The local
yachtsmen claim that they have the
sw fest boats 10 this section Of the
country. 1t is regarded as more than
probable that sn effort will be made in
The near future for race OF some kind,
if it has to be among the owners them
selves.
