Fruit Exchange At Admiral.

Some years ago the enterprising
farmers in the locality of Ridgely, a
thriving town on the Eastern Shore o [
Maryland, organized fruit exchange
for the purpose Of establishing an ad-
vantageous plan of marketing their
produce. Their operations have been
very profitable to themselves and
beneficial to their town and commu-
nifty. With view to inaugurating a
similar enterprise at Admiral Station,
on the Washington, Baltimore and
Annapolis Electric Railway, Mr..
George 7. Melvin arranged a meeting
of prominent fruit and truck growers
of that part of the county and invited
Hon. Thomas A. Smith, of Ridgely,
to address them on the practicable
ity and advisability of organizing a
fruit exchange at Admiral.
Among the leading truck farmers
who attended the meeting were
Messrs. John Disney, S. C. Disney,
Arthur A. Downs, William T..
Downes, J. A. Wagner and H. E..
Wagner. Those who heard Mr.. Smith
were so favorably impressed that they
determined to organize at once and
make all necessary preparations for
opening business next season.

Classic Church Music.

Some very fine work was done by
the vested choir of men and boys at
St. Anne's Church yesterday. 1t was
an anthem which was sung for the
Introit at the morning service and re-
peated after the Third Collect at Even
ing Prayer. This anthem was writ
ten by Charles Steggall. Mus. Doc,
Cantab., for his choir in the chapel
of Lincoln's Inn, London, and is one
of the most exacting anthems of all
those published by NovelIo for church
purposes. 1t was sung with exquisite
taste and fine technique. 1t was
Remember Now Thy Creator in the
Days of Thy Youth.
In addition to the anthem the bass
solo, during the offertory (this was also
repeated in the afternoon) was such
few church choir soloists can sing.
1t is from Handel's Messiah, "Thus
Saith the Lord. " st. Anne's congre-
gtion is fortunate in having music of
this order chosen and so we'll render
ed. Perhaps neither the anthem nor
solo would meet with popular appro-
val, music of such an order rarely
does, but it is good for the people to
hear such music occasionally and learn
of the standards. 1t is good for
choirs to sing such music occasionally,
for it is only thus that they learn to
do simpler things we'll and to know
what is of merit and what is only
meretricious.

President Smiths Birthday.

The friends and neighbors of Mr..
James S. Smith, president of the
Board of County Commissioners, care
fully arranged and successfully car
ried out surprise birthday party at
President Smiths residence on Satur-
day evening, Sunday, November &c,
being the anniversary of his fiftieth
birthday. The party quietly assembled
at the residence of Mr.. Nelson Crom-
well, and promptly at O'Clock, noise
lessly marched to the Smith home
stead.
AT given signal the gathering
entered and were received with the
cordiality for which the Smiths are
noted. As members of the party ap-
preached Mr.. Smith they congratu.
lated him of the occasion of his birth
day and received pleasant salutations
in return. The evening was most
enjoyably spent in innocent games,
music and sumptuous refreshments.

team of fighters to victory" he said
1t was a case of the best in the
| country beating the second best. The
big men on the team, such as Brown
and Dalton. odd not make the team. il
was the little kids like Shaw (the
l35-pound substitute back) who show
ed the } cal spirit that made US win
victory.
But if there was one hero of the
game. he said. it was Gilchrst, the
man who drove the team.
He said that Gilchrist sustained a
badly bruised hip in the second half
that bothered him so he thought he
had better be out of the battle. but
he gamely continued to play when
told that il was the spirit he instilled
into the players that enabled them to
make their great fight. The injury
to Gilchrist by the way, together with
Dalton's bruised back, were the only
ones of any consequence sustained by
the Middies.
Lieutenant Douglas Rowad. the
head coach, complimented the play
ers. To use the expression of the
West Pointers, he said, 1--WE brought
the bacon home and we're going to
keep it here. We can lick 'em again
next year, the year after and every
year"
He urged the brigade to show loyal
spirit all the time, no matter whether
the team apparently takes a slump. as
was the case once or twice this sea
son, for he said this years team was
trained with one primary object, and
that was to accomplish the defeat of
the Army, even though the smallest
kind of a game might be lost. The
West Point coaches, he said, in com
menting on the game, said that il was
a case of the best team in the country
beating the second best team.
Coach Weymouth, a Yale man, also
addressed the Middies, as did several
players.

the hospital in the Academy ambu-
lance, but was dead when he got
there. He is survived by a wife and
three married daughters. On ac-
count of the lines of one of his
daughters at the family home on
East street, the body has beer Kept

A WILD CELEBRATION
Returned MILDLY Football Team
Given An Unrivaled Ovation
For Defeating The Army.
DOLLY" AND "GILLl" HEROES
DOughy Captain And Game Quarter
back The Big Factors In Downing
The Army Mule.

Seldom, if ever, has a bunch of
conquering heroes received so wildly
enthusiastic welcome on their re-
turn from the wars as was accorded
Captain Dolly Dalton and his gridiron
warriors, when these same battered
and lamed football players got back
to Annapolis from Franklin Field
last night after walloping the Army.
In Difference to the church-going
people of the town who in past years
have commented on the joyousness of
the Sunday night celebrations after
the Saturday football games, the real
celebration last night took place in
side the Academy enclosure.
1t was shortly after o'clock when
the second battalion, headed by Cadet
Lieutenant Commander "Gussie"
Wilbur marched to the West Street
Station, headed by the Academy col
ors, while the first battalion lined up
just inside the Maryland avenue en-
trance to the institution. While the
second battalion was waiting the in
coming train, the other crowd whiled
away the time with fun of all sorts
at the gate. Songs were sung and
yells given, while the much deco
rated Navy goat pranced about in
charge of Midshipman Conger, who
had been his caretaker on the trip
to Philly and during the game. A
diversion was given the crowd, when
the Army mule, presumably captured
on Franklin Field, was ri lden wildly
through the waiting crowd.
Presently the whistle of the incom-
ing train was heard and everything

After wait, while the horses were
being unhitched from the buses at
West street and the Middies of the
second battalion caught hold of these
same vehicles the march through
town was completed and the trium-
pkant heroes were seen coming down
Maryland avenue. At the head of
the column, supported on either side
by stalwart Middies, came fair little
maid of Providence, r. l., who is
visiting friends in the Academy.
With the aid of the Middies she was
wildly waving aloft the victorious
Blue and Gold, ard having the time of
her life. Under a frery arch of
burning brooms, the MILDLY team
came into its own and was almost
mobbed by its joyous and victory
maddened fellows. Headed by the
Academy band playing the old battle
hymn, Anchors Aweigh," the pa
rade wended its way down past the
Administration Building, the Chapel
and the Superintendent Quarters to
the front terrace of Bancroft Hall,
where the speechifying began.
A bonfire of waste baskets and every
thing else that the wild Middies could
beg, borrow or swipe from the inside
of the building was started and while
the brooms were cast on it and the
flames reached higher and lit up the
scene, cries of speech" rent the air.

A WALKING PLA|NSMAN
William H Chapman On Reaching
Annapolis Today Completed
A Five Thousand Mile Hike.
WALKING ON WAGER.
Although Sixty-TwO Years Old He Has
Gained Flesh Since Starting And
Does Not Look Age.

Hale and hearty and lean and hard
looking as an old greyhound, William
II. Chapman, a sixty-two year old
ranchman from far off Cheyenne, Wyo.
ming, reached Annapolis this morning.
completing the last lap of a five-
thousand mile hike, which was started
on bet.
Somewhere on the road between
Annapolis and Havre de Grace is an
automobile containing Mr.. Harry NJ.
Dickie, owner of the ranch on which
Chapman lives and who backed the
old plainsman to do a five-thousand
mile walk over any and all sorts of
old country highways within six
months. With Mr.. Dickie is DR..
James w. Wood, physician to the
party, and Charles H. Clark official
time-keeper for the trip.
They were forced to lay up at
Havre de Grace. because of a break
to their Overland" machine last
week, but are expected to reach An
napolis some time this afternoon,
when the formalities in connection
with the completion of the walk
will be attended to in the City Council
Chamber.
The walk of Chapman was stated
from Denver, Colo, on April 15,
with seven contestants, but all but
Chapman dropped out before crossing
the Colorado state lines. Since that
time the husky old plainsman, who
looks much nearer az than 62, has
hiked through Wyoming, Neb., Mis-
souri, and Illinois, and a month or so
ago came through Baltimore and
thence doubled back to Washington,
from where he turned north again
going up through Maine, and touch
ing part of, Canada before turning
back to Glenns Falls, New York, from
which point he came straight through
to Annapolis via Baltimore.
AS each city on the schedule was
passed, Chapman stopped to get GER
ticate of his passage under the munic-
ipal seal and over the signature of
the town clerk or Mayor The last of
these to be gotten was given in Bal
timore on Friday by Mayor Preston.
After resting in Baltimore over Sat-
urday, Chapman started for Annapo-
lis about dark last night and walking
all night, reached this city just about
daylight. He went at once to Carvel
Hall, where he took breakfast, and
then looked up Mayor Strange and re-
ported his arrival at the City Coun-
Gil Chamber.
