The annual report of the Navy Ath-

1910 has been issued. 1t contains the
reports of the officers of the Associa-
tion and also of the officer in charge
of athletics and the officers detailed
to take charge of the different sports.
The report is of special interest in
view of the portions devoted to the
effort being made by the Academy au-
thorities to interest every midship-
man in some branch of competitive
athletics.
By the report of Lieut. II. n. Jen-
son, officer in charge of physical
training, it was shown that on Janu-
airy /, 719 midshipmen were enrolled
in the different athletic squads, the
number of midshipmen then at the
Academy being 750 This proportion
has been maintained through the
spring, there having been rarely more
than thirty midshipmen who did not
spend their recreation periods in some
active sport.
Football claimed the largest num-
Der, las, while baseball had ITO, field

The discussion of the financial side
of athletics at the Academy is Of
some inter st, inasmuch as IT, re are
no gate receipts and all money must
be obtained through the c4ntribu

The sum of $5,04138 was devoted
to baseball and $3,199.91 to rowing.
The other sports which draw upon

SERIOUS ACCIDENT
Narrow Escape OF Young Man-lIOrse
Seriously Injured.

Jack" the fine perchon horse of
Capt. p. J. Kelly, coal and wood deal
er of Eastport, met with serious
accident yesterday afternoon. The
horse was hitched to a cart and draw
ing wood to the mill, when it slipped
on the incline driveway and fell
against the rapidly revolving saw.
The saw had just been sharpened and
set in the morning, and its cruel
teeth sank deep into the horse, cutting
through flesh and bone as though it
were paper. The horse in slipping
carried Mr.. Kelly's son, Clausen,
down with it and threw him upon the
carriage with such force as to start it
toward the saw.
Young Kelly realized his danger but
was almost powerless, and as he was
being carried toward the saw by
superhuman effort sprang or rather
rolled to the ground and with pres
ence of mind stopped the engine.
There was about four inches of space
left between where he lay on the car
riage and instant death by being cut
in twain. His friends are congratu-
lating him on his miraculous escape
from terrible death.
A veterinary surgeon was imme-
diately called and everything possible
done for the animal, but still he is in
a precarious condition. In fact the
bones are so crushed and nangled that
the wound has to he kept open for
treatment. The horse is valued at
$3.50 and is fine specimen of horse
flesh, being about the largest horse in
the county.
