FLEET ATTACKS CAPE COD BAY
BattIeships Expected To Use AerOplanes
In War Maneuvers.

Cape Cod Bay, Massachusetts, was
a theatre of mimic war last night for
the greatest collection of ships of war
ever gathered together under the
American flag. More than fifty war
ships participated in a theoretical at
tack on Cape Cod Bay and the port of
Provincetown.
The North Atlantic battleship fleet,
under command of Rear Admiral Hugo
Osterhaus, formed in line of battle
across the mouth of the bay as the de-
Tending forces and tried with their
searchlights to disclose the attacking
vessels of the Seventh and Eighth tor
pedo division and the submarines.
Last nights attack was the first of
the practical maneouvers to follow the
gathering of the feet there for it's
summer work. During the coming
fortnight there will be night and day
attacks by an aeroplane upon the bat
tleship fleet, it is expected, for the
first time in American navy history.

DEVOTED FRIEND TO JAPAN.
Col. Robert M. Thompson Tells A
Story Of Charitable Japanese.

Col. Robert NJ. Thompson. of New
York, a graduate of the Naval Acad-
envy. and well known in naval circles.
related an interesting anecdote at the
recent dinner given him by japanese
residents in New York at the Nip
pom Club.
Colonel Thompson told how some
forty years ago an American warship,
the corvette Oneida, with 265 OF her
crew, was sunk in the Bay of Toxic
through a collision with a British
steamer. The ship had remained I'M
der the sea fifteen years, when Japa-
nese fishermen accidentally discovered
the wreck They tried to recover the
remains of the crew, and finally sue
ceeded, and buried the bodies with
proper ceremony within the grounds of
a Japanese temple.
Colonel Thompson, during a visit to
Japan few years ago, paid visit to
the burial grounds and saw the monu-
men erected there. 1t bears the fol-
lowing inscription: Monument
Erected by the Japanese to the Mem
DRY of the Dead of the T. S. s.
Oneida. Here rest the remains of
265 officers and men of the u. S.
Corvette Oneida, sunk in collision
with the British Mail Steamer Bonn
bay Castle in March, 1870, and recov-
cred in May, 1885; and here inferred
by loving and charitable Japanese
hands"
Colonel Thompson declared that this
tender mark of friendship shown by
the Japanese fishermen to Americans
sufficed to make him a devoted friend
of Japan forever.

COMPLAINTS UNsUSTAINED.
Supervisors Fail To Find Grounds For
Removing Registration Officials
Today.

After hearing the complaints Of
James p. Bannon, who stated that he
was representing himself alone, and
was working for publication of the
election machinery, wherein he charg-
ed that some of the registration Off
cials were incompetent and otherwise
untitled for the duty, the Board of
Supervisors this morning failed to
find any valid reasons in the unsup-
ported evidence of Mr.. Bsnnon for re-
moving any of the officials.
Mr.. Bannon was given a hearing
against a number of the chief judges
and registration officers, and in add
tion to this the Board heard testi.
mony from a number of voters in
the accused officials precinct, all OF
whom gave evidence of the reliabili
ty and fitness in every way of the
men.
After hearing the case the BoarC
went into executive session and fol
lowing this administered the oatl

MENDED In SPOTS.
Eastport Bridge Gets Worse And
Worse.

Eastport bridge, the greatest thor
oughfare in the city, and the only out
let between Eastport and Annapolis
and that part of the county, has been
mended in spots. The bridge needs
and should have a general overhauling
and is greatly in need of repair
throughout the length and breadth of
it's whole structure.
Instead, there has been patch here
and patch there, and it lis like put
ting new wine into old bottles. If
the County Commissioners do not
soon take this matter of general re-
pairs to the bridge in hand they will
have an entire new bridge to build.
No bridge that cost as much as the
built one over Spa creek, but a few
years ago, should be in the present
dilapidated condition.

THE MODERN DRAMA TO BE
 DISCUSSED BY MRS. BEECHER

In these columns short time ago rel erence was made to subject that has been of vital moment to several of the Birmingham clubs this winter. the mod ern drama. In the Clionian club the aft ernoon of December IS the entire pro- gramme was given to a discussion of the general trend of the drama Its deteriora- tion and the causes leading to it. In the Cadmean Circle recently Mrs. Leonard Thurow Beecher gave a strong talk on the subject. telling of the Drama league. that splendid organization which has few members in the south, but which is doing much by its censorship of plays to elevate the standards in the large cities of the north. Growing out of these discussions a meeting of the Council of Women 8 Clubs was called and plans were formu- lated by which a lecture will be present. ed to the clubwomen of the city by Mrs. Beecher next Thursday afternoon, Feb- ruary 21, at the parish house. Church of the Advent The clubwomen of the city are expected to attend the lecture and their friends are cordially invited. Es- pecially the mothers, for to them the lecture is one of paramount importance, are invited to attend this meeting. A more

New Revenue Bill

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 When the Alabama legislature fixed the minimum ratio at which property should bo given in for taxation at 60 per cent of it's cash value, it was presumed that 1t had previously ascertained by investiga- ton that this ratio, when supplemented by the additional income to be derived from special license taxes, would afford sufficient revenue to meet the regular ex- penses of the state government
 Now, if I am not in error, the new rev enue law yet to be passed upon provides that no property owner in this state shall insure his property for greater amount than the assessed value he placed upon it when given In for taxes
 would ask, Is this fair to the taxpay- instances and unjustly so?
 If the state permits a sworn assessment of 60 per cent of the cash value of prop erty to stand unassailed. why should it resort to unfair means in order to force the taxpayer to place a still greater val uation on his property?
 The taxpayers of this state have so far shown a remarkable degree of forbear- ance under the heavy tax burdens being laid upon them. To say the least, 1t seems tt at our lawmakers are abusing their prerogatives when they thus presume to take away the private rights of the peo- pie. Let us hope this act will not be- come law. M. T.

MRS. WILLARD WILSON
 HOSTESS AT BRIDGE

One of the interesting events of yes- terday was the morning bridge party at which Mrs. Willard Wilson was the hos tess. She entertained in compliment to two visiting matrons, Mrs. Abbott of Wisconsin, who is the house guest of Mrs. Edwin Ball, and Mrs. Alex LeSour Hig don of Lampasas, Tex. who is visiting Mrs B. F. Tyler. The hospitality was limited to a very few of Mrs. Wilson's friends. and the congenial little coterie enjoyed a delightful morning of bridge, followed at o'clock with a luncheon of seven coNkses. Spring flowers were em- ployed by the hostess in the decorative scheme for both her luncheon table and in the adornment of other rooms in the residence. The score prize was hand some Dresden china dish of new design and to the two honorees Mrs. Wilson gave a dainty piece of lingerie. Mrs. Wilson is as gracious and attractive as a hos tess as she is in the role of guest, and her flower luncheon with bridge as an introductory feature was one of the most delightful affairs of the season.

At the attractive prices named by southern sellers and met by northern makers. the leading agricultural machin- cry interest has bought nearly 100, ,0Ot tons. A pipe company has also taken 50, ,- 900 tons of southern and valley iron. In some districts furnaces are definitely holding out for 25 to 50 cents advance.
 Al. the steel companies report large scale of operations, ranging in some cases from 75No 90 per cent of mill capacity.
