| SOUTH RIVER REGATTA
To Be Held Friday And Saturday
By South River Boat
Club
INTERESTING SPORTS
Outline OF Coming Aquatic Sports
Racing Begins P. nj.
Each Day

| Probably the most interesting sport.
| ing event ever held in Anne Arundel
county, and in which its own residents
| will participate will be the first an
nual regatta of the Severn River Boat
Club. The event will be held on the
waters of South River, close to the
county bridge, in order that the larg-
est possible number of spectators may
have good positions from which to
witness the various contests.
Some very speedy boats from Anna
polls, Baltimore, Cambridge and else
where have been entered for the speed
boat class, and wonderful exhibition
is expected. This event should prove
wonderfully attractive as many per-
sons have never seen typical speed
boats in action at speed of that of
the average express train. In this
class Mr.. Charles Chance, Mr.. Benja-
min Searles and Mr.. William Boucher,
of Annapolis, have entered their boats
against three mysterious strangers
from Baltimore and Cambridge.
A large number of entries have
been received for the cruiser class for
boats which can be used for long dis
tance trips and are provided with
sleeping, cooking and other permanent
fixtures. The course for this class
will be thirty miles and as there are
several boats, the supremacy of which
have never been tried out, the contest
will be particularly interesting.
The canoe and workboat class also
has large number of entrants, and
the contest should be a good one.
This will be an elimination race of
three trials and final, each of the
trials being over five-mile course.
The class for small boats for which
no classification has been formed, is
well filled out and should prove very
interesting.
One of the largest events of the
meet will be the race for four-oared
shells between the Severns of Annapo-
lis and the Ariels and Arundels, of
Baltimore. This will be mile
straightaway and will be the first time
these well-known clubs have ever got
together in local waters.
The events will be novel and all
will be interesting. The regatta will
be held on Friday and Saturday OF this
week, beginning at l o'clock each af
ternoon right on the dot Persons at
tending in their own boats are request
ed to anchor on the south side of the
river and to keep clear of the race
course.
The large silver cups which go as
prizes in the many classes are on dis
play In Boessel's window, on Md. Ave
-, where they will remain until
Friday.
The regatta committee is composed
of A. S. J. Owens, John Schenkel,
James E. Steuart, T. S. Barrow,
Floyd T. Waggaman, J. M. d. Will
liams, Col. John Pitcher, L. A. Pal
mer, A. Schussler, Gould & Lee,

SECOND NOVITIATE
Young Priests Taking Post Graduate
Course AT St. Mary's

Since the weather is now cooler.
the young priests at st. Mary's
Church have settled down to real
work in the Second Novitiate, which
opened here on August 80. The real
serious work was greatly hampered by
the excessively hot weather.
The Second Novitiate is composed
of young priests who, according to
the rule of the Redemptorists, made
a Second Novitiate, corresponding to
postgraduate course.
After graduating in philosophical
and theological courses, the young
priests return to Annapolis to make
and prepare for their postgraduate
course, as Individual priests prepara-
tory for immediate work of the min
istry and mission work in the Par
ish as the Parish priest.
Those who are now taking their
Second Novitiate here are about elev.
en- young priests in all, and the work
is now well under way, having been
somewhat interrupted by the hot
weather.

RUN OVER BY WAGON
Ton And A Half Wagon Passes Over
Boy Viii Live

/ Alfred, the four-year old son of Mr.
I and Mrs. John Wheeler, of Severn
( avenue, Eastport, was run over by
the heavy. wagon Of the Red c Oil
Company and still lives. The boy was
on the wagon with his father, who is
the agent of the oil company, and his
father had Just mounted to the seat
of the wagon when the accident oc-
Cured.
As the father grasped the reins, the
little fellow attempted to strTke~ the
horses with the whip, and lost his
balance and fell and beforeShe horses
could be stopped both front and rear
wheels had passed over him. The
boy on striking the ground, grasped
the spokes of the front wheels and
held on till he raised himself to a sit
ting position, throwing his leg out
and the wheel passed over it. The
boy then released his hold and the rear
wheel passed over his stomach.
Mr.. Charles jefferson, who was an
eye witness to the accident, picked
the boy up and hurried to the office of
DR.. John Russell, of Eastport, who on
examining him, failed to discover any
broken bones. but the boy is thought
to have received serious internal in
juries. The boy was Immediately re-
moved to the Emergency Hospital,
where, it is said, he is doing as we'll
as can be expected under the circum-
stances.
1t seems that a strange fatality
has been following the Wheeler
family. About two years ago, while
the mother was rowing a boat across
the harbor one of the children waw
drowned. The child was seated in the
stern of the boat with a raised UNI
brella to protect it from the rays of
the sun when a sudden flaw of wind
caused the child TO lose it's balance
and fall overheard, and was drowned
before its mother could render any as
sistance.

BIG CROWD AT CARNIVAL
Last Night The Record Breaker al
Water Witch Street Fair

The largest crowd that has yet at
tended the carnival of the Water
Witch Hook and Ladder Company of
the Volunteer Fire Department, was
present last night. Numerically, it
was record-breaker. and everything
was sold out except the chickens.
1t will become necessary tonight to
lay in a fresh supply of cake, candy,
ice cream and salable articles at the
carnival. 1t is safe to say last night
was the only night since the carnival
started, August %, that they have
made any money, and the projectors
and those in charge of the carnival,
feel encouraged.
Go to the carnival tonight and enjoy
the fun and help the firemen.
