THE TOTAL LOSS ABOUT $1,000
City Fire Engine Wouldn't Work Brigade of Midshipmer
Called Out With Naval Apparatus -Mulhall Property
Destroyed at City Dock-Carpenter Smith
Loses Everything Crowd at Scene

! fire alarm system here is badly need
ed and should be provided at once.
The police department does its duty
to the best of its advantages, but
these are few and meagre. They can
not break in houses and stores to gain
access to a phone to turn in fire
alarm. Officer Jacobs turned in an
alarm from Water Witch Hook and
Ladder Company, the nearest place to
the scene of the fire.
1t is understood the matter of the
frequent fires here of late, and the
probable firebug at large, has been
brought before State Fire Marshal
Ewell, of Baltimore, and active
measures are being taken. In the
meantime ten or twSlve gentlemen
from each of the three wards will
patrol their respective wards from
II p. m. to a. m. for two or
three weeks, and will stop any one
found on the street during that
time, inquire what their business is
out at that hour and if they cannot
give satisfactory account of them
selves, will have them committed to
the lookup for the night. In this
way there will be no "firebug" at
large for many more nights or early
mornings.
Great CONSERVATION is felt here
since the four mysterious fires, and
while no valuable property has been
destroyed to any great extent, and
no lives lost, yet there is no telling
where this thing is going to stop.
One of the oldest citizens, Mr..
Thomas S. Basil, said today to Capt.
tai representative that during the
Civil War there was just such SER
les of mysterious fires as those of the
last week, and the townspeople form
ed vigilance committees of the best
citizens, patroled the streets in
squads, and soon put stop to the
fires.
During the fire last night ladies
who live in the vicinity made hot
coffee (acting on The Capitals sug-
gestion and served 1t to the volun-
teer fremen and Midshipmen. Speak
ing of the Middies they do say who
went to the fire it was the "'Sockless
Company, those turned out were
sent so quickly they hadn't time to
don hose, except the fire hose.
The question is being asked through
out the town today by anxious ones
Where will the fire break out to-
night?' The anxious ones-and these
are most of the town are sleepless.
This afternoon it was announced by
| Officer LOwman and Officer Jacobs
that the first to see the fire was
Charles Stalfp, barber, who was re-
turning from the hospital, where he
had been to see his sick father, and
was returning to his home al Mr..
| Nason's.
These officers contradict the story
/ that appeared in the Baltimore pa
pers this morning that man was seen
coming from the direction Of the
| fire, and declare no man was seen By
them. Officer Smith, however, main
tains that he saw colored man act
/ ing in a suspicious manner near the
Market, as stated in the foregoing.

A meeting of more than usual in
terest has been called by the Annap
oils branch of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals for
Tuesday. January g, at p. m, to be
held in the room of the Annapolis
Chamber of Commerce.
This meeting is for the interest of
the general public, especially for all
those who love dumb animals and de
sire to aid in bettering their condi-
tions and prevent cruelty to them. 1t
is impossible for the secretary to ask
individually all those who are inter-
ested in this great work to be pres
ent and this is to be general invi-
tatlon for everyone.
This association knows no class and
is composed throughout the country
of public spirited citizens, including
the wealthy, the poor, the high and
the low, in fact its supporters come
from every walk of life. Attend this
meeting and be enrolled as a member,
the dues are small and the benefit
great.

BOOK PLAY A WINNER
The Firing Line Best Show
Seen Here For Many Moons
Clever Company
A NEW DRAMATIZATION
Excellent Presentation Pleases Represen.
tative Audience Though Small One
Review OF The PIay

1t has been a long time since ar
| Annapolis theatre audience has been
/ treated to such delightful acting as
| that afforded the small, but represen-
! tative audience who witnessed last
night The Firing Line" a dra-
matization of Robert W Chambers
novel of the same name.
The play is in prologue and
three acts. In all details the play
is strictly first-class production, and
the players are refined, dignifed in
their several characters, and above
the average in ability and capability.
The scenes are laid in Palm Beach,
Flori1a, New York city and the Adj
rondack Mountains, and the action of
the piece closely follows the events
as described in the book, portraying
as Only Mr.. Chambers can, the in
trigues of society at the same time
injecting an element Of romance that
holds his auditors from beginning to
end.
The play deals with beautiful
young girl, Shiela Cardross, who is
supposed to be the daughter of Ne
Vile Cardross, one of Americas lead
ing financiers, and a man of vast
wealth. Shiela is, however, a waif
adopted by the Cardross family from
some public institution and whose
origin is unknown, but for whom,
Cardross and his entire family, have
developed deep and lasting affection.
She, herself, is unaware of the fact
that she is not of the blood of Car
dross, and, when, in her eighteenth
year, she ascertains unexpectedly the
true state of affairs, it comes as a
great shock to her.
A companion of her youthful days is
one Louis Malcourt. a oodloking
magnetic young chap, and a ward of
Neville Cardross. On the spur of
the moment she takes Malcourt into
her confidence, and, persuaded by
him, agrees to hurried and secret
marriage, which would at least, en-
dow her with a name and the protec-
tion of a husband. 1t is decided be-
tween them. however, that it would
be uaWise to announce the marriage
until the time of his graduation from
COliGBSs WuSil it VIII luBSlIb CUlSlu-
erabe property. Long before that
time arrives they each realize that
they have made grave mistake
and that they nave never really
loved each other, but simply acted
upon a youthful impulse. The sub
sequent falling in love of both of
them with others brings about com
plications which 60 to make an in
tensely interesting plot. Psychology
plays an important part in this play.
Communication with the dead forms
an uncanny element, which is only
subjugated by the romance of two
persons. 1t is so deftly introduced,
however, as to be really interesting
and not in the least offensive.
The part of Shiela Cardross is in the
capable hands of Miss Edith Shayne,
and that of Louis Malcourt is most
acceptablY acted by Frank Patton,
who showed finesse and played his
part convincingly to the climax when
he shoots himself to leave his wife
free to marry Garrett Hamil. The
play was presented by an excellent
company, every member of which
must be identified with only high
class productions, and the scenic
equipmet was perfect in every detail.
