Mrs. Wilmer Entertains Candidates Of
Preparatory School.

Hallow Fen was observed last even
ing in very pleasing manner by a
beautiful Hallow Fen party given by
Mrs. Wilmer, wife of Prof. J. A.
Wilmer, at her home in Randall Place.
Mrs. Wilmer was assisted by Mrs.
John Chew and Professor Wilmer and
Professor Chew were also present.
The party was given in honor of the
candidates of the Naval Academy
Preparatory School taught by Profess
sors Wilmer and Chew.
The decorations were all suggestive
of Hallow Fen and the guests wore
masks. The table was lighted with
lanterns made of pumpkins and there
were weird and ghostly shapes rsed
in the decorations for the occasion.
The young ladies present included the
younger smart set of the town and
Naval Academy contingent. A delight
ful evening was enjoyed and at 11.3C
the guests said good night, voting Mrs
Wilmer a charming hostess.

WERNTZ WINS SUIT.
Case OF Long Standing Decided In
Baltimore Courts Yesterday-Verdict
After Four Years.

The suit Of Werntz against Field
meyer, which was begun in the courts
of Anne Arundel county, and later car
ried to the Baltimore courts, was de-
cided yesterday in favor of the former.
The case was heard by the court
and verdict for Mr.. Werntz was
rendered on the second day of the
trial, This verdict was given after a
contest lasting four years, which was
begun in 1907 by Mr.. Werntz to Sc
cure possession of the store. room
property on Maryland avenue now oc-
cupied by Mr.. Feldmeyer, and to COM
pei the latter to pay rent.
The property belongs to the old
Opera House Association, whose hold
ings were purchased in 1907 by Mr..
Werntz. 1t has been occupied for
thirtysix years without the return to
the owners, it is claimed, during all
that period, of dollar of rent.
1t was to secure possession of the
property, and to enforce the payment
of rent that legal proceedings were
started by Mr.. Werntz a short time
after he made purchase of it in 1907,
which proceedings at length resulted
in his favor. He was represented by
Mr.. Frank Stockett and Mr.. James
w. Owens, of the local bar, and by
Col. D. G. Macintosh, of the Balti-
more bar,

SECRET WORK BEGUN.
Navy Varsity Shows Big Improvement
In Attack Behind Closed Gates
Yesterday Afternoon.

With the beginning of secret prac-
tice for the squad, Navy's football
team showed big improvement in
yesterdays practice. Particularly
pleasing TO the coaches was the big
advance in the strength and vim of
the 'varsity's attack.
With the strongest scrub aggrega-
tion that could be got together
facing them. the regulars, during a
stiff S5-minute scrimmage, scored al
most at will. Three touchdowns were
scored by straight line plunging
football tactics, with occasional re-
sort to short forward passes, and in
addition, Dalton kicked two field goals
from placement. The showing of the
team was such as to greatly encour-
age all of its friends
The ball was carried about equally
by Sowell, McReavy and Rodes and
Dalton was not worked hard as the
coaches want to give him n chance to
get the muscle bruise on his upper
leg entirely healed. The playing was
nearly all straight football, varied
by an occasional short forward pass.
and the team work with force and vim
such as it has not previously shown
this season.
After the practice, Head Coach
Howard announced himself as much
pleased with it, and satisfied with the
state of the team at this time. Every
effort will be made to bring the team
to its top for the day of the Army
game

A HIGH OLD TIME.
Young Men Paint The Town A Ver-
million Hue-Celebrating Hallow
E'En.

That Hallow Fen comes but once 8
year is something most people in town
are thankful for this morning. A
number of young men, supposedly
candidates, painted the town a brill
liant vermillion hue last night and
tore things wide open.
The result was that two out of a
bunch of twenty of them spent the
night in the lookup at the Station
House. Steps were town down, signs
removed, gates taken from their
hinges, door bells pulled out of socket
and few other little depredations
done not worthy of mention. The
gates st. Anne's Chapel were taken
off and placed in such a position as
to menace the safety of any child
nearby.
A lady on East street had her door
steps taken away. although a sledge
hammer was required to remove
them. Door steps were removed from
all parts of town, especially Conduit
street, and many signs were hidden
and some have not been located as yet
AS usual. The Capitals bulletin board
shared similar fate to that of pre-
vious years, but was located this morn
ing on Conduit street. having been
left on front porch and kindly taken
inside for the night by the residents.
On Duke of Gloucester street lum-
Der was scattered far and near from
some new houses in course of build
ing, and the entire street blocked with
laths and boards. Had an automo-
bile come that way there would have
been serious accident 49,
Youthful enthusiasm is all right
when rightly placed, but when there
is a manifestation of such exuberant
spirits as last night, it shows a lack of
evenly balanced mind and does not re-
dect creditably upon the mentality of
the young men who commit these acts.
1t may be said in passing that the
two candidates locked up last night,
each paid fine of $375 when tried
this morning before Justice Davis.

FOLKLORE MUSICALE.
To Be Given AT Mcdowell Hall St.
Johns College On Wednesday
Evening Next November 8th.

A distinguished company of artists
fgm Boston, consisting of Mr..
Charles p. Scott, lecturer and pian-
ist Miss Alice Barnard Diaz, dancer,
and Mrs. Alexina Carter -Barrell,
mezz5 soprano, will give a musical
al St. Johns College on November 8.

hv Miss Diaz, who dances, wearing
the costumes Of the country she
represents, and by Mrs. Carter Bar
rell. who sings the folk songs, among
which may be specially noted such fa-
yorites as kitty Of Coleraine" and
the Scotch songs. MY Love is But a
Lassie Yet" and Annie Laurie"
A recent issue of a Boston paper has
said of Miss Diaz's dancing "Her
folk dances were particularly attrac-
tive. To see Miss Diaz in Schar-
wenka's Polish dance brings the
dreaminess and charm of a moonlight
in Venice Her Barcarolle and her
Pick-a-nnny dance were the features
of the programme If you do not
happen to catch the picture meaning
Of il, you can think to yourself that
after alI the delight Of the Isadora
Duncan School Of dancing is that it
tells you things plainly one minute
and puzzles YOU most tantalizingly the
next"
Mrs. Barreli is an easy singer, her
enuncation is clear and her voice of
fine tone. A repetition of this per-
iormance is to be given at the Pea
body Institute, Baltimore, on the
night following.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
GO-Cart With Baby Run Into By
Careless Driver.

On Sunday afternoon the little son
of Prof and Mrs. John Chew made a
narrow escape from serious injury
and possible death, and the nursemaid
was badly bruised about the body.
The maid was wheeling the go-cart
with the baby on the West Annapolis
road, when she saw a carriage coming
with a lady and gentleman. Realiz.
ing that the driver was not as car eful
as he might be. the maid attempted
to turn into the road at the Marine
Barracks, but the man driving ran
into the go-cart threw il over, ,tore off
two wheels, throwing the baby out,
and knocking the maid down in the
road.
The baby escaped by the providence
that watches over children, drunken
men and fools, but the go-cart was
demolished. The driver picked the
child up and gave the maid promise
that he would phone the parents and
be responsible for the damages. but
so far the promise has not been full
filled

SIZE UP GIRLS.
How The Middies Measure Attractive
ness OF "Femmes" According To
Academy Scale.

Attractive girls who visit the fleet
are likely to hear themselves referred
to by the younger officers in terms
which they may not understand. Gal
liant young midshipmen especially
have a method of their own for re-
cording feminine beauty, and they use
it on many occasions.
This is system of estimating the
attractiveness of visitor by slid
ing scale from g. to 5, which is the
system of marking at the Nava
Academy. One particularly attrac-
tive girl was walking along the deck
of the flagship yesterday when she
overheard two midshipmen say: "I'll
give her a 3.5 anyway. She comes
nearer to a than anything I've seen
yet"
Of course she did not understand
what this conversation was about.
If she had she would have felt right
fully fattered, as a 3.5 is an excel
lent mark and one rarely given. A
2.5 means passable. That is the
lowest mark that will pass at the
Academy. If a girl is attractive
and jolly, but without any particu.
larly striking beauty, she is put
down as a 2.5.
Before girl can be spoken of as
deserving 8, she must be very
pretty indeed. To merit a 3.5 hel
beauty must be striking. 1t is sci.
dom any girl, no matter how beau.
tiful or attractive, merits a 4. This
is the perfect mark, the very best
that can be obtained. 1t is seldom
given by midshipmen to more than one
girl in his whole career in the navy
