The baZaars of Cairo are very inter

MIDDIES TAKE A SWIM
IN THEIR DRESS UNIFORM

Annapolis, Md.-Midshipmen in full
uniform swimming by the score in the
Severn river off the academy wharf
was the unusual sight at the Naval
Academy the other morning.
The lads signalized the completion
of their annual examination by try
ing to get every member of the school
in the water. 1t was at first intended
to duck only the members of the sec
ond class, who completed the exami-
nation which practically made them
first class men. For this purpose
members of the other classes had
congregated at the entrance of the
academy building to capture the sec
ond class men and throw them off the
Maryland avenue wharf into the
river.
One second class man resisted Wig
orously and managed to get some of
the attacking party into the water.
In a short time class lines were
forgotten and the affair turned into
battle royal, each midshipman try
ing to 1et some other one into the
water.
Those who were thrown overheard
swan to the landing and rejoined the
melee, and soon there were only a
few dry uniforms left on the wharf.

to cause the elimination of both Taft
and Roosevelt from consideration by
the republican national convention
grew fast today. The obligation to the
party was declared by a hundred del
egates to be the paramount issue in
stead of loyalty to any individual. The
leaders were trying to stand pat but
there were evidences of weakness in
certain quarters. One of the promi-
ment Roosevelt leaders sent to Taft
representatives and asked if they
would pull the forces off the RooseA
welt bandwagon if the Taft man would
do the same. The Roosevelt leader
told them that it was impossible for
the association now in existence but
the refusal was not definite. The
Roosevelt leader was told to be pre-
pared to renew his offer later in the
day. Many men closest to Roose-
welt are willing to admit that the COM
promise idea appeared to be taking
definite form, these men admit if a
bolt is ordered Roosevelt will have
only a fraction of the solid state dele
cations for which he has been fight
ing his battles in the convention.

HOW TURNER HAD HIS WAY.

The late ]. M. w. Turner, one of
England's most famous artists, serv-

one day when he strobe into the pic

ciai artist of the name of Bird. Tur-
ner took it into his hands and exam
ined this way and that "a fine work,

and exhibited"
Impossible responded the other
members of the committee, "the walls
are full and the arrangements cam

WOMEN PROMINENT
IN MEAT BOYCOTT

New York.-Starting in Brooklyn,
the meat boycott has now spread all
over the city and many markets have
been forced to close their doors be-
cause of lack of patronage. Women
leaders Of the boycott movement de-
clare that there are at least 10000
women enrolled among those who
have promised not to patronize the
butchers until the prices are reduced,
Most of the boycotters are Jewesses
and the kosher shops have conse-
quently been the hardest hit. Scenes
Of violence have been enacted by the
infuriated anti-meat strikers in some
markets. Customers have been as
sailed and meat carried out and
thrown into the street. The meat
dealers say they are not responsible
for the high prices and declare that
the strike will be short lived.
