Governor |nspects Drum Point Route

Prince Frederick, Md, June IL. i
Governor Crothers and his inspec-
ton party are today going over the
route of the proposed Drum Point
Railroad and viewing the work on
the new State roads in Southern
Maryland. The party left here
shortly after 10 o'clock this morn
ing in two automobiles, after the
Governor had talked of the pro-
posed road with a large number of
prominent business men of this sec
ton.
logged out in busters and pre-
pared for strenuous day over the
bumpy roads of Southern Maryland,
the Governors party left Annapo-
lis in their cars before o'clock this
morning. Prince Frederick was
reached shortly before 10 o'clock,
and the conference with the men of
this county was speedily dispatched.
With the Governor are John NJ
Tucker, secretary of the State Roads
Commission; w. D. Uhler, assistant
roads engineer; Edwin l.. Quarles,
of the Greater Baltimore Committee,
and F. E. Jones, of Philadelphia, who

the road, who left Annapolis this
morning on the State steamer Gov
ernor McLane.
While the Governor is going over
the route of the proposed railroad,
Mr.. Tucker and the other road
makers are inspecting the State
roads, which in some places will
parallel the railroad and which will
cross it some 20 times.
The route will be gone over as
thoroughly as possible and the wind.

where in St. Mary's county-prob
ably at Solomon's Island.

YACHT CLUB GROWING.
Unusual Interest Being Displayed
Many Applicants For Member
ship-Club House Much Used
By Members.

The promoters of the Cambridge
Yacht Club probably had little idea
that the movement would become so
popular as it has in the short time
that the Club has been organized.
The membership has increased quite
rapidly and already the Club has
probably a larger membership than
many similar Clubs on the Chesa-
peake Bay, and what is still more
gratifying,the membership continues
to increase, there being a number
of applicants each week.
The Club House and grounds are
being greatly improved and many ia
vorable comments have been heard
about the improved appearance of
both. In the yard much of the
shrubbery has been removed, the
walks have been cleaned up, the
trees trimmed, flowers set out,
swings and hammocks have been
placed around in different places,
and tennis court is now being
laid out. During the next few
months the Club House will I'M
doubtedly be the scene of many in
teresting social events.
In the Club House the work Of
furnishing the rooms will now pro-
coed rapidly and by the time of the
Regatta, June 20, 81, the building
will be fitted up in becoming style.
During the past week Charles NJ.
Stieff, the well-known piano manu-
facturer of Baltimore, has installed
a beautiful pianola, which is being
thoroughly enjoyed by those mem
bers of the Club who are fond of
music. No action has been taken
in the matter of purchasing the
pianola, the subject not having as
yet been brought up.
At the meeting Wednesday night
OF this week a number of applica-
lions for membership will be pre-
scented to the Club, as well as much
other business. The members of
the different committees in connec-
ton with the Regatta will probably
make their reports, and from I'M
official sources, it is reported that
the outlook for this event is re-
markably favorable, there being
many entries, many cups, and inter-
est in abundance.

made by the owner. Mr.. G. c

the main building and the erection
OF two smaller brick buildings for
additional machinery. next week.
No new machinery has been ship

that shipments will begin within .

to Williamsburg and the new one
will be for the manufacture of rib

He will continue to manufacture
