WELL PLAYED MUSIC.
Program Of Excellent Selections at
Presbyterian Recital.

Masterful rendition of music of a
high order and by the best composers
delighted large audience that filled
the lecture room in the Presbyterian
Church last night.
The recital was given by Miss Men
uez. pianist, and Miss Lee, cellist,
both skilled musicians, who have
given their life's work to the study
Of their chosen art. All numbers
were exquisitely played.
Miss Menuez opened the program
with Rubenstein's Barcarole in F
Minor a composition we'll known to
music-lovers. Miss Menuez has a
firm yet soft touch, and under her
fingers the keys respond as child to
its master. Her method is artistic
and her execution shows that tech
nique that marks the skilled musi-
clan.
She ran the whole gamut Of cIassi-
cal selections of varied style and tone,
from gay, 1.-THE, winsome and persua
sive music, to the more sombre, deep
and melancholy notes. Greig's Nor
wegian Bridal Procession was so
realistic. The music carried one off
in imagination to the scene in the
land Of the Norseman, where, in ma
tive costume, the bride and her at
tendants gathered at the church, the
organ pealed, the choir sang and all
was as merry as marriage bell.
The music was divine and dlvinely
played.
Miss Menuez played Dyork's HUI
moreske as few musicians can. 1t is
"a masterpiece, and beneath her touch
and execution one saw more in HUI
moreske" than ever before. She
closed the piano part of the program
with Polonaise in B Major by Pade-
rewski. "A wonderful composition by
wonderful composer, and all the
beauty in il was brought out by the
fair young pianist.
Miss Lee. the celIst, who assisted
with the recital, shows rare skill with
the cello for one so young. Her Can
tilena" was beautifully executed, and
her rendition of "Berceuse" from
Joycelyn, by GODDARD, was given in a
splendid manner. She makes the cello
respond to her touch until it is almost
akin to the human voice, so delicate,
SO musical, so vibrant are the notes,
yet with such feeling in the tone.
Both young ladies are students of
the Peabody Conservatory of Music,
Baltimore, and are worthy exponents
of that renowned school of music.

WANT GOOD ROADS.
ArunisIiaus Make Appeal Bsfore County
Commissioners.

No roads in the State are worse
than those between Eastport and An
napolis Neck and Arundel-on-the- Bay.
Petitioners to the number of several
hundred who use these roads present
ed petition this morning before the
County Commissioners making an
earnest plea for good reads. The petit
tion was read by Robert Moss, ESQ,
who made a plea on behalf of the Pc
titioners.
Mr.. w. II. Burns also made briet
speech in behalf of the needed i'm
proved roads in this section of the
county. The County Commissioners
gave careful attention to all details in
the case presented and appointed a
committee with Mr.. Julian Beard,
chairman, to go over and inspect the
roads.
Others on the committee are Com
missioner J. A. Walton and Mr.. John
Pettebone and the road engineers. The
road needs cutting and grading and
filing in. and the organized effort on
the part of Mr.. Martin H. Smith, of
Hilsmere," is expected to bring
about good results, the beginning of
which was this mornings work before
the County Commissioners.

BIRD-MEN GET DUCKED.
Lieutenant Rodgers And Ensign
Herbster Met With Slight Ac-
cident While Flying.

While trying one of the flying
machines of the Navy yesterday aft
ernoon, Lieut.. John G. Podgers and
Ensign Victor Herbster, the two
biplane specialists at the aviation
school across the river from the
Academy. had good ducking in the
Chesapeake that was for a time
considerably enlarged in the telling
when news of the occurrence reach
ed Annapolis.
The accident occurred late in the
afternoon when the machine was max
in rapid descent from flight. Meth
er was hurt, however; nor was the air
craft damaged to any extent. The ac-
cident occurred near Greenberry Point
lighthouse. The craft was at an alti-
tude of between 100 end 200 feet and
Lieutenant Rodgers started the ma
chine downward, with the object of
making a skid along the surface.
AS it neared the water itvseemed to
have a little too much speed and
failed to right itself A Naval Acad.
smy aunch went to the rescue.

MEMS MOVEMENT.
Important Gathering Last Night At
State House use-Inauguration OF Men
And Religion Forward Movement.

There occurred last night in the
| chamber of the House of Delegates a
| meeting. the Importance of which
/ it would be hard to overstate The
/ gathering was representative of the
men of the churches of our city, and
1 was held in the interest of the
advancement of religious life among
men. BY the inauguration of this
movement Annapolis will be brought
into line with the plans for the
| promotion of the cause throughout
the entire land.
The meeting was held last night at
| the call of the ministers of the city.
and was conducted by them. Rev.
Walter G. Mcneil. president of the
Ministers Union of Annapolis, pre-
! sided. Prayer was offered by Rev.
Thomas c. Bird, and the Scripture
lesson was read by Rev. Dr. Joseph
p. McComas. The benediction at the
close of the meeting was given bx
Chaplain Evan w Scott, Of the Ma
val Academy.
The movement in the interest of
which the gathering was held is pri-
marily a laymen's movement, and the
further conduct of it will be largely
in the hands of the laymen. Profess
sor White was last night chosen as
| secretary pro TEN and a committee
consisting of two laymen from each
church and the ministers of the
churches was appointed to effect a
permanent organization. This COM
mittee is to meet at the call of the
chairman OF last nights meeting.
The Men and Religion Forward
Movement was we'll presented by Mr..
Francis A. White and Mr.. w. C.
VanSant, both of Baltimore, and the
purposes of the organization were
clearly defined by them. Many ques-
tions were asked of them in an in
formal way, and the meeting took
the nature Of a conference. All of
the men present seemed interested
in the cause, and the speakers ap-
peared to be gratifed with the out
look
With the permanent organization
of the movement begun last night the
hope of the leaders for the State is
that the churches of Annapolis may
be greatly quickened. The reason
for undertaking such an enterprise
lies in the apparent fact that the men
of the chnrohes have not taken thoir
part in the work of the church, and il
is believed that some such enterprise
will accomplish this end. The results
in other places, according to the
speakers of last night, have been
very gratifying, and all who are in
terested in the welfare of our church
es here will hope for the same results.
The Capital will have pleasure in
keeping the public informed of the
progress of this great movement.
Doubtless there will be much of in
terest to record as the undertaking
develops.

A Large Delegation.

A large delegation was before the
County Commissioners this morning
in behalf of the Eastport and Bay
Ridge public road, which was backed
up by a long petition of signers.
This road which is a general thor
oughfare to residents in that portion
of the county, has been sorely
neglected, and the taxpayers in that
section are ANXIOUS to see some results
for the heavy road expenses that they
are called upon to pay every month.
This road, in some places, is a dis
grace to the county, and its corps of
professed road engineers.
