"MIDDIES PLAYING CARDS."
Swapping" Little Pink Tickets to Hops
And Taking Other Girls On Some
bOdy's Else Name.

The Rocking Chair Brigade is roll
ing a savory morsel under its tongue.
1t is bit of gossip relative to the
new regime at the Naval Academy,
and the stringent rules and regulations
surrounding and protecting the hops
given by the brigade of midshipmen.
1t doth appear that midshipmen
have already begun to "play cards"
with the little pink tickets issued to
young ladies for the season.
For instance, the midshipmen (some
of them) have sent the pink tickets
of admission for the series of hops to
Annapolis girls, and then asked the
girls to 'loan" the MILDLY the ticket
to take some other girl on the town
girls name.
what do you think of that?" said a
member of the Rocking Chair Brigade.
"Just suppose that other girl from
out of town did not conduct herself
properly, and was not desirable per-
son, what then? The town girl would
have to bear the blame.''
That swapping" cards of admis-
sion to the hop was done at the last
hop is rnmored to have occurred in sew.
eral instances. You have to go far
and search diligently to surpass the
wit and genius of the average MILDLY

NEW "RULE OF THREE. "
Excludes Niece OF U. S. Senator From
Middies Hop.

A niece of former United States
Senator Nelson w. Aldrich, of Rhode
Island, and several of her society
friends, who came here in n private
yacht, were excluded Saturday night
from Naval Academy hop by the new
''rule of three" or social code" reg
ulations.
This is the rule got up by the officers
of the Academy to limit the number
of invitations which a midshipman
may Issue each year to girls for hops
and other social entertainments on
the Academy grounds.
Miss Aldrich and another young
woman and their chaperon-all three
in ball gowns arrived with their es-
corts at the entrance to the gymna-
sium where the hop was to be held at
s p. m. They started to pass through
when a watchman said Your tick
cts please? >
Why" said one of the men, 1--WE
are to meet two midshipmen inside
and we have no tickets -
My name is Miss Frances Aldrich,
niece of the Senator of the same
name" said one of the young women.
Surely may go in to hop here
with my friends as the guest of mid
shipmen. | suppose the tickets slip
ped their memory"
'You cannot go in," said the watch
man. The party then hurried from
the yard. and, entering a carriage
they had left at the gate, were driven
away.

HOME RUN" BAKER
Gives Good Advice To American
BOys-Himself OF Abstemious
Habits.
SAYS DON'T DRINK OR SMOKE.
A Farmers Boy From Eappe Md.
Gives Interview To New York

Some good advice to American bows
is given by Home Run Baker" in ar
interview published Sunday in the
New York Tribune, and republished in
The Capital by request. The Tribune
says:
Home Run Baker, the star bat
ter of the Philadelphia Athletics. is
the most persistent and consistent
dodger of the limelight in the public
eye today. With the entire country
discussing his baseball achievements,
with writer's and artists searching
sea, earth and sky for quaint syno-
nyms for his very convenient name
and rhymsters of the press shattering
all precedent in the number of changes
they ring on both name and achieve
ment, Baker himself regards the entire
performance with a lack-lustre eye
and refuses to join in the enthusiasm
in any way.
It's gettin' to be a nuisance, >
Baker plaintively assured the writer
when requested to spare a little of his
plentiful time for an interview. 4
can't go away from the house for a
few minutes but what come back to
find lot of chaps camped in the par
Tor waiting to interview me. Then
the photographers are after me and
even sketch artists come bothering
around. This morning one of the
papers 'phoned while / was out and
rs good as gave orders that | was
to come down to the office and pose
tor pictures. / took no notice, and
they sent a photographer and made
me get out in the shed with a
broom in my hand, to look like a
picture of the bat. 1t makes me
tired. "
And if ever young man appeared
earnest and sincere, Baker was. The
calcium light doesn't interest him a
bit. He is of the shy retiring order.
He looks at strangers with the sus-
picion with which most of the big
leaguers regard the world at large.
If lie accepts the stage offers he is
said to have had he will be the despair
of the press agent of the show.
There is nothing of the Beau Brum-
nell about Baker in private life. He

form than in his street duds. He sits
in parlor chair in the same attitude
he assumes in the "dugout" on the
ball grounds, leaning forward, his
big, weatherbeaten but decidedly cap
able looking hands, hanging loosely
from the wrists, and rather more than
the usual length of large, bony arm,
unrelieved by any suspicion of a
white cuff, protruding from the
sleeves of his coat. He is without a
trace of self-consciousness calm eyed
and natural. He is decidedly out
spoken when he touches upon any
incident vital to the profession he
follows, as for instance when refer.
ring to the ungentle art of spiking,
as practiced by one Snodgrass. He
is very uncommunicative, however,
on the subject that several millions
of Americans are burn to knowing
about, the Baker that is not seer
on the diamond, the Baker of pri.
vate life.
