MANY ATTEND:OFFICERS' DANCE.
First Formal Function for Over a
Month Held in The Boat House
Last Night.

Perhaps because it was the first
formal social function that had been
given for several weeks, owing to
the memorial order out of the respect
for the late Vice President Jane s
S. Sherman, there was an unusually
large attendance at the hop given by
the officers at the Naval Academy
last night.
1t was the second function Jf the
kind arranged by the officers for the
winter season. The initial dance was
given early in November. but owing
to the memorial edict. it was strictly
informal, there being no receiving
party.
Last nights dance was held in the
boathouse, and the guests were re-
ceived by Mrs John II. Gibbons,
wife of the Superintendent, with
the assistance of Commodore George
w. Logan, commandant OF midship-
men.
A string orchestra of the Academy
band furnished the music. Refresh
ment were served during the even

TO HEAR MANDAMUS CASE.
Banks Of Allegany County Seeks Re-
lease Of Bonds and Securities BY
Treasurer Vandiver.

Although the petit jurors were dis
charged few days ago. with the dis
possl of all cases that demanded trial
before jury. the October term of
the Circuit Court has not closed. In
fact the Court will be more or less
busily engaged from now until Janu-
airy, when the regular january, or
non-jury term begins.
There are several civil suits 60
come before the Court in the near
future One of these is to be argued
before Judge Brashears on Tuesday.
II is = mandamus proceeding insti-
tuted by three banking institutions
of AllegaEy county. against State
Treasurer Murray Vandiver. to COM
pei that official to surrender the
stocks and secrities deposited by the
institutions under the provisions of
an old law.
1t is claimed that by recent act of
the Legislature the charters of the
banks were so amended that the pro-
visions of the old law are not aow ap-
plicable. Messrs. Albert A. Doub
and David l.. Sloan are solicitors for
the plaintiffs.

1t is unfortunate that on at least two
occasions at the Colonial Theatre plays
have been interrupted by the bad
manners of some in the audience.
Last night party of men was put
out of the theatre by Manager Irons
after being reprimanded by the Man
ager of the Manhattan Co. from the
stage. A night previous there was
great disorder in a box occupied by
men and women who were boisterous.
The conduct of these rejects on Anna
polls and the theatre management will
not endure it.
The Manhattan Company has been
giving good shows for the prices, far
better than some $l.00 shows that have
come here. and it is unbecoming
women and men in the audience to dis
turb the players. If they do not like
the play or players let them withdraw
No lady or gentleman will show bad
theatre manners any more than bad
drawing room manners.

DEFIANT AFTER REBUKE.
Governor Blease Of South Carolina De-
tends Convictions as 20 Lynching
Negroes.

The Governors Conference, in ses-
sion at Richmond, Va, unanimously
repudiated the recent utterances of
Governor Blease, of South Carolina,
concerning thu lynching of negroes.
By vote of ID to 4 it adopted a
resolution declaring against mob vio-
lence and for the impartial enforce
ment of the law. The four COVER
nors who opposed the resolution de-
claring themselves as strongly indors-
ing its purport. but voted mo be
eaue the thought the had no right t.
reprimand a colleague.
Governor Blease himself. target
of the attack, hotly defended his con-
victions, snapped his fingers in the
face of his colleagues, told them to
"go to it, declared he cared not a
whit what the conference said,
thought, did or did not do, an an
nounce tha: all the resolutions they
might ever adopt would neither keep
him from the Governors chair nor
from a seat in the United States Sen
ate in 1915 or earlier. Four times
witnil as many hours, he asserted,
his life had been threatened because
of his utterances, but this appealed
to him as little as the resolution.
Governor Goldsborcugh, of Mary
land, did not participate in the discus
sion of the Mann resolution condemn
ing the views of Governor Blease on
mob law, butin an interview said:
The Governors Conference stands
for the maintenance of principles as
against supposed courtesy and ques-
tions of law as against mob violence.
The conservative people of my State
always have, and do now, believe that
the dignity of the courts should be
maintained and that all criminals
should have a speedy and fair hearing
in the courts Of the State, and that
these courts for more than a genera
tion always upheld the majesty ef the
law and will continue to do so. For
these reasons voted, both from a
sense Of duty and with pleasure, for
the resolution of Governor Mann. of
Virginia.

FOR RELOCATION OF
NAVAL ACAOEMYDAIRY
Paymaster-GeneraI COwie Asks for
Special Appropriate on
OFFICIALS SAY NOTHING.
But Belief is General That Site Of
Present farm is Offensive to
Hospital.

According to dispatches sent out
from Washington, Paymaster-Gene
Thomas J. Cowie, Of the Navy. was
before the House Naval Committee
OF Congress yesterday and advocated
a special Appropriation of sl0O. 600
at this session of Congress for the
purchase Of land, and the erection Of
dairy for supplying milk for the
midshipmen at the Naval Academy.
The real import of this appropri-
alton is not known here. At least
the Naval Academy authorities stated
that they knew nothing of such re-
quest having been made. 1t is gen.
orally believed by many, however.
that the government officials are con-
fronted with the proposition of re :
locating the dairy that was establish
ed on the government reservation on
the old Government Farm property
several months ago.
There a group of thoroughly mod
ern buildings was erected, and suffi-
cient milk to meet the demands of
the naval school is supplied by herd
OF more than fifty Hola,ein cattle.
But from time to time, reports have
been circulated to the effect that the
move Of placing the dairy farm there,
was an unwise one; that it is in such
close proximity to the Naval General
Hospital. that the odors coming there
from cause a bad effect upon patients
in the hospital.
Not long ago when this report
first gained circulation. and that the
federal authorities were looking
around for another Suitable piece OF
denial of it was entered by
the lccal naval officials. But the re-
quest for the special appropriation
has led many to believe that such is
the situation that exists.
In fact has been stated in unoffi-
cial quarters that the government
contemplates purchasing farm
across the river from the Academy.

FOOTBALL MEN ARE
GUESTS At LUNCHEON
Mrs. John H. Gibbons Entertains
Warriors This Afternoon.
HOGE TO LEAD SOLDIERS.
Left End Of Army Eleven is Chosen
Captain Other Football Gossip
Of Interest.

Mrs. John H. Gibbons, wife Of the
superintendent of the Naval Acad-
emy, was the hostess this afternoon
at a luncheon given in honor of the
victorious Navy football team.
The luncheon was held at the Super
intendent's quarters, in Blake Row,
and the guests of honor numbered
fourteen. This number included the
rea ular eleven and the three substi-
tutes used in the course of the big
hattie a week ago. Mrs. Gibbons
also invited a number of the fair sex
of the Academy and Annapolis to
meet the football warriors.
The football men present were
Captain Rodes, Gilchrist, Ingram.
Hall, Ralston, Howe, Perry, Leon
ard, McReavy, Harrison, Redman,
Overesch and Vaughn
Benjamin F. Hoge, member of
the second class at the United States
Military Academy, West Point, has
been elected captain of the Army
football team for 1918.
Cadet Hoge is twenty-oI years
old. feet 10 inches in height. weighs
loo pounds and comes from Missouri.
His position is left end. Cadet Har-
old T. Loomis, of Connecticut was
elected manager. 1t is expected the
midshipmen will elect captain for
next season IN few days.
Reports from New Haven indicate
that Pennsylvania is likely to replace
the Army team on Yale's football
schedule next year The matter has
progressed so far, according to infor-
nation, that all that is necessary is
for the authorities of the two colleges
to come together and agree upon. ar
rangements.
1t is said on good authority that
Yale is through with West Point and
the fact that the football committees
at both Yale and Pennsylvania re-
fuse to deny this continued report is
considered nov as almost proof that
the game is to be arranged.

BEAUTlFYING ACADEMY GROUNDS
Several Dozen Austrian and Scotch
Pines, aud Norway Spruce Shrubs
Planted This Week.

As means Of further beautifvinp
the grounds of the Naval Academy
reservation, there has been set out at
various spots during the last few
days large number of young trees.
The varieties planted included the
Austrian AM Scotch pines and Nor
way Spruce. They were placed at
varying distances throughout the
grounds. the work being under the
supervision of Commander w. C.
Cole, officer in charge of buildings
and grounds.
Many Of the beautiful shade trees
within the government enclosure are
so old that they have been treated
from time to time by cement filings,
and the Academy officials take the
view that il is only a question of
time that number of these will have
to be taken down, and the opportu-
nifty Of setting out new growths is
ripe.
Several dozen of the little pines end
spruce shrubs have been planted. and
they are quite attractive.

Fuel Ships.

Both the fuel ships authorized by
Congress at its last session may be
built at the Mare Island, CAL, navy
yard.
The original plan was to have one
of these vessels constructed at the
navy yard at New York, and the
other at the Mare Island navy yard.
The bid of the Mare Island yard,
however, was so much lower than the
bid submitted by the New York yard
that the Department may conclude
to have both vessels built on the
