DON'T RATE COURT-MARrIALS
Midshipmen Lost in Norway Will Be
in The Hands of Winthrop

CASTOR L. Holmes, of Mississippi,
and Charles l.. Clifford, of Massa-
chusetts, the two midshipmen who on
the recent European cruise of the Ma
val Academy midshipmen disappeared
at Bergen, Norway, and afterward
turned up at Christiania, will not be
court-martialed, although they may be
found guilty of having violated the
navy regulations.
Acting Secretary of the Navy Win
throp has the papers in the case on
his desk and will look into them as
soon as he has an opportunity. They
consist of report from Commander
Coontz, who was in charge of the
cruise, and explanations from the two
midshipmen themselves.
1t is held at the Navy Department
that the midshipmen, not being COM
missioned officers in the navy, but
simply in charge of the Government,
are not subject to court-martial.
Their cases will be dealt with by the
Secretary of the Navy himself and if
any punishment is meted out he will
prescribe the course to be followed.

SIX TORPEDO BOATS ASHORE
Engineer Officer at Charleston Gets
SIS, 900 For Repairs on Yard

The storm that swept over the
south Atlantic coast Sunday night
washed six torpedo boats ashore and
did other damage at the Charleston,
S. c., navy yard.
Acting Secretary of the Navy Win
throp received a despatch yesterday
from Lieut.. Commander Mitchell, en-
gineer officer in charge at the yard,
saying that the big wind had played
havoc there.
The roofs of buildings had been
blown away and great damage done to
tracks and wharves and to the light
and power wiring. The velocity of
the wind was almost a hundred miles
an hour.
Commander Mitchell said he would
make an immediate report of the dam
age by mail, but requested an emer-
gency appropriation of $40, 600 to re-
pair the damage. Mr.. Winthrop
wired him authority to spend SIS, 600.
From all the advices received by the
Navy Department it is understood the
torpedo boats were not seriously dam
aged.

COMING SOON
The Robbins Circus Here Next
Month

1t is seldom two circuses come to
Annapolis in less than month. Rob-
bins Shows are to exhibit here in the
next few weeks. The Livingston
Tydings, of Howell, where the show
recently exhibited, has the following
comment:
Frank A. Robbins all speciality
shows exhibited in Howell last Fri
day, and more than satisfied everyone
who attended. Their program is at
tractive because it is so different.
There were the usual trapeZe, wire
and tumbling acts which were of a
very high standard. The balancing
on his head of one performer was
simpy marvellous in point of endur-
ance and skill. With no support ex-
cept his head balanced on the bar of
a trapeze, he ate, drank and smoked
He also went downstairs, jumping
along on his head.
The six performing stations knew
their game better than some people.
The trained horse, little dog and pig
cons act, was performed with these
animals by lady, was one of the
llHSst features, uellShtlHB everyone
who saw it. 1t combined skill and
beauty. The band concert which
opened the show, could have been con-
sidered well worth the price of admis-
sion if it had been given as a number
on the programme in the opera house.
Every member is musician of excel
lence. This was Mr.. Robbins first
visit to Howell. His shows would
crowd the town if they come again.

The Girl In The Taxi

The theatre has never offered q
more sensationally successful play
than 1.-THE Girl in The Taxi" which
is scheduled for an engagement at the
Colonial Theatre matinee and night,
Saturday, September 9. 1.-The Girl
in The Taxi" was written with the
sole purpose of making people laugh.
This it has done beyond the greatest
expectations. In Paris it created a
sensation and ran for one thousand
nights. In Berlin it scored an I'M
qualified success and broke records
with its popularity. In New York in
the Astor Theatre it repeated its
foreign triumphs. In Boston it cap
tivated public and press and played to
overlooking audiences at the Ire

BIG BOX KITE
Passes Over The City In Full View
Yesterday Afternoon

To those who were looking skyward
yesterday afternoon between the
hours of and $50 o'clock, there was
an unusual sight presented.
A large box kite built on the lines
of an aeroplane sailed gracefully over
the State House dome in full view of
the rubbernecks. At first it was
thought to be an airship, but with
field glasses it was seen to be a box
kite of unusual proportions.

HUMAN RACE is
DEGENERATlNG RAPIDLY
Indoor Life and Indulgence in intex.
icants Are Said to Be Causes
That Lead TO Destruction

Berlin, Jan. THE latest figures
gathered by the government show an
increasing number of physically "un-
fit throughout the empire. The in
quiries Of the French government
show the same situation in Gaul-a
growing tendency to physical degen-
Grafton. The figures from Italy and
also from England point the same
|ay. Alcoholism is blamed for this
dying out Of the race. Indoor life
too, bears part of the blame.
In Italy out of more than 100000
youths examined in the year, $4,000
were rejected as unfit. In Germany in
the twelve months more than $4,000
were rejected as positively below
standard and very much larger
number was put back" for further
development Two years ago in Italy
out of 378.000 young men who became
liable to military service only 103, ,000
were enrolled in the active army. OF
these $4,000 were put in the third
category" so that less than 100000
actually went into training The fig
ures for Germany tell the same story
The number Of young Germans who
reached in the year the age for mill
tary service was $4,000, of whom
only 257,000 were actually enrolled
in the army and navy, or less than
40 per cent.
