Salute

Admiral Togo sailed yesterday on
the Japanese liner Tamba Maru from
Seattle, Wash, homeward bound.
There was a large crowd of Japanese

went up the gangplank he was cheer
ed.
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning
the steamer moved Off down the har-
Dor with all the waterfront whistling
and footing in honor of the departing
visitor.
The cruisers West Virginia and
Colorado were waiting outside the
harbor as escorts for the little Ad-
miral's ship, and in addition to these
the japanese organizations in Seattle
had chartered boats to follow the
Tamba Maru until she passed out of
the sound
The cruisers followed the Tamba
Maru until she reached the high seas
| and then fired a parting salute, the
very last of many that have dinned in
Admiral Togo's ears since he stepped
ashore i'm New York.

ON TIGER FIELD
Army And Navy Game to Be Play
ed This Year AT Princeton
NOV. Is DATE FOR CONTEST
Important Gridiron Event Not On
Franklin Field Owing To
Difficulties

1t is stated on excellent authority
here that there is every prospect that
the Army-Navy game this season will
be played at Princeton and that the
date will be November %.
There would be no thought of leav-
ing Franklin Field. the grounds of the
University of Pennsylvania. upon
which the majority of the annual
games have been played, except that
both branches of the service felt that
1T was imperatively necessary to OBJ
tain more tickets than the Pennsvl-
vania authorities could see their way
clear to offer.
While it is not settled that Prince
ton will be the location of the big
game, yet indications now point that
way strongly. 1t is also thought
likely that the Navy will yield to the
Army as to the latter's desire to have
the game played on the Saturday be
fore Thanksgiving Day, rather than
the Saturday after. The Navy de-
sired the latter date, but it is notice.
able that it has not filled the earlier
date with any date to be played at
the Naval Academy.
The game. of 1905 was played at
Princeton, and conditions were unsat-
isfactory. The crowd was not hand
led by the railroads in an ADEQUATE
manner, and the game was so late
starting that it had to be called on ac-
count of darkness. Now, it is be-
lieved that conditions are much bet
ter, and that larger number OF seats
can be obtained from the Princeton
authorities.
Princeton completes its schedule on
November IS, so there is no reason
why the Army-Navy game cannot be
played on the Princeton grounds one
week later. The only difficulty is in
the way of railroad facilities of the
service athletics are not satisfied that
the crowd can be handled properly by
both the railroads and at Princeton.
AT any rate, it is very likely that the
experiment will be tried of holding
the game at Princeton at least one
more season.

PLANS ARMY NAVY GAME
Academy Thinks Annual Gridiron
Battle Is Assured
MIDDIES TO PLAY HOPKINS
Viii Open Season With University
Team Oct. Z Practice Scheduled
Tc Begin September %

Though there has been sonre :,~%set-
back in the plan for arranging the
annual fo1t ball game against the
Military Academy, there is not much
apprehension here that the game
will really not take place
On the contrary, everything will be
mapped out in order to develop the
strongest possible team to meet the
Army rivals. Reports from West
Point are to the effect that the SOL
diers also have small loss by grad
yates and will make the most des-
perate efforts to even up for last sea-
sons defeat.
Those who were lost -to-the Naval
Academy by graduation are Clay,
right halfback; Wright, left guard;
Loftin, right tackle, and King, Doug
las and Merring, who successfully
filled left tackle. Those of the regu-
lar team who remain are Captain Dali
ton, left halfback; Rodes, fullback;
Gilchrist, right end, and Hamilton,
left end.
While Clay was an experienced
back, and had a steady influence on
the whole back field, there should
be ne great difficulty in filling his
place McReavy, who had his first
years experience on the Navy team
last season, is bigger and stronger
than ever, and should develop into a
powerful man, willie Corchran is
good runner and excellent punter.
Both Rodes and Sowell should do bet
ter than ever this year, and Dalton,
who leads the team, has been the
main ground gamer of the Navy team
for several years.
Wakeman is the first choice for the
vacant place at guard, while Elmer,
Davis and baltimore are likely men
for the tackle positions. However,
all the positions on the team are open
to the men who show their ability to
win them.
There is probably no institution in
the country where it is made so clear
to the candidates that only ability to
help in the teams success counts for
anything in making a place. No
matter what any player has done for
the team in the past, ne will not stay
on the Naval Academy eleven a day if
he fails to make good. Consequently
every member of the squad feels that
he will be given a fair chance and
puts forth every effort.
The coaching of the team is entire
ly in the hands of young men this
year. Ensign Douglas L. Howard,
who was Navy end up to 1905, is
head coach, and Jonas H. Ingram,
who left the Academy year later,
after having won fame as a football
player and oarsman, is his assistant.
Frank Wheaton, who has been out of
Yale slightly over a year, is the field
coach.
The football squad will return to
the Naval Academy for practice on
September %. The first game is
against Johns Hopkins. of Baltimore,
a new name on the Academy schedule,
and is fixed for October z. The big
game of the local season is against
Princeton, on October 81. The last
game at the Academy is against
Pennsylvania State and will be play
ed on November is.
December 2 is open, and the Army
game will be played on that date, if
it is arranged The Army prefers
that date, and the Navy the Saturday
after Thanksgiving Day.

FIRST or" MONTH
The Oyster Has Its Innings Friday
September 1st.

Friday, September /, the oyster
season for tongers open and the oys-
termen are not over-jubilant at the
outlook.
Last season was the most disas-
trous, both to the tongers and pack
ers, that they have ever experienced.
During part of the season oysters
were selling for so low a price that
many tongers gave up in disgust, not
being able to earn a livelihood.
The oysters were very Indifferent
in quality and all were full of mus
sells. This year the outlook is much
brighter. The mussels seem to have
disappeared from the oysters in these
waters. and those who have caught
them this week to test them, say they
are in better condition than for some
years past.
1t is said that Thomas Hackett' s
and Greenberry Point bars are free of
mussels and if such is the case then
the tongers and packers should have
a good season. The heavy rains of
the last few weeks, it is thought, will
have disastrous effect on the oysters
on the upper bars on account of
freshetS.

Nominated For Senate By Democrats Yesterday

Mr.. Bells majority over Mr.. Brady
in Annapolis for the senatorial nomi-
nation was 1872, the former polling
40s votes to Mr.. Brady's ZIG. In the
county Mr.. Bells defeated his closest
opponent, Mr.. Brady, by 1,024 votes.
Another fight in which local interest
centered was that between ]. Carson
Boush, of West Annapolis and Clar-
ence w. Gould, of Annapolis, for the
office of county surveyor. In this
Mr.. Boush won out over his opponent
by between 1900 and 2, coo votes.
The fight of DR.. Gordon H. Claude
against the organization forced for
the nomination to the House of Dele
gatees, was also a losing one, DR..
Claude failing to carry a single pre-
cinctn the county, and being defeated
by the lowest other candidate by two
votes in his own precinct-the First
ward of Annapolis.
Mr.. James w. Owens, who was sup
porting Senator Lee for the guberna-
torial nomination, and who was him
self candidate for the senatorial
nomination from Anne Arundel, ran
way behind the other aspirants in the
county fight.
The fight in the Republican ranks
for management of the party affairs,
wherein the vote was on the members
of the County Central Committee, and
the delegates from Anne Arundel to
the State Convention, proved one
sided. The attack on the rule of Cap
tain John GLADDEN., present chairman
of the County Central Committed
proved unavailing and the "organiza-
ton" ticket carried through without
! hitch in the G. o. P. ranks.

The date for the sailing of the Pa
cifc feet, consisting of the California,
West Virginia, Colorado and South
Dakota, from San Francisco to Hawaii

Acting Secretary of the Navy Win
throp.
Some repairs which the South Da-
kota is now undergoing at the Mare
Island navy yard will not be COM
pleted in time for that vessel 70 sail

vers with the Pacific torpedo fleet at
that station. The Pacific fleet on its
cruise to Hawaii will be in command

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS
Practiced Daily By Drivers of Auto
mobiles

Many drivers of automobiles have
no regard for man or beast, and de-
termined to reach their objective
point and pursue their way regardless.
A man driving an auto out the
Camp Parole road yesterday afternoon
ran over and killed little dog, a pet
of one of the residents. The act was
apparently deliberate one, and after
running over the poor little animal,
the man ran his machine forty miles
an hour, never turning to see the re-
suit of his deliberate carlessness.
Agent O'Leary. for the Society for
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, at
tempted to get the machines number,
but failed to accomplish the end, and
the driver of the auto escaped unpun-
ished.
