FOR GOUCHER
COLLEGE CAMPAIGN
Annapolis Comes to the Help Of
Great Institution.
TEAMS CANVASS THE TOWN.
And Yesterday Raised Over $40O
to Save School 10 Mary
land.

Pursuant to the call issued by Gov
ern9r Goldsborough, the committee
appointed by the meeting held Mon
day afternoon of this week. met yes
terday me rning in the Executive
Chamber at the State House.
Governor Goldsborough called the
meeting to order aud fittingly ex-
pressed his interest in the success of
the campaign. Being compelled by
an important engagement to leave
town, he requested Mr.. Daniel r. Ran
dali to serve as chairman of the meet
ing. There were present at the meet
ing besides repre- sentative citizens of
Annapolis, Rev Hugh Johnston, d.
D., Rev. Don S. Colt, d. D., and
Rev. C. L. Hubbard, all of Balti-
more.
These gentlemen came to repre-
sent the headquarters committee of
the Goucher campaign. Under their
le leadership three teams were organ
lied for canvass OF Annapolis in the
interest of the college.
The entire day was spent in going
from place to place. These teams OF
ministers and men and women of our
town were received cOurteously and
kindly wherever they went. At the
end of the day the returns were re-
ported to Rev. Hugh Johnston and
were by him reported to headquarters
in Baltimore.
The result of the days work in
the town was a subscri ptiJn list of
four hunored dollars, which list rep
resented the community from civic
point of view. Already there had
b zen reported to the Goucber fund
some four hundred dollars from the
two Methodist Episcopal churches of
the town, this being their contribu-
tion to the portion of the whole fund
which the Baltimore Conference of
the Methodist Episcopal Church is
raising.
All subscriptions being counted,
the entire sum that will go to the
Goucher campaign from Annapolis
will amount to about eight hundred
dollars. The morning papers report
that eighty thousand dollars need to
be raised to complete the million dol
lars, for which the campaign is aim
ing. Five hundred thousand dollars
of this amount is to cover indebted
ness and five hundred thousand to pro-
vide endowment that will prevent de-
felt in the maintenance of the college
for the future.
The people of Maryland have come
to recognize the value of this great
institution, so that they have deter
mined that it must be saved. Unless
the entire sum of one million dollars
is raised, all the subscriptions that
have been made will be returned to
those who have made them But one
more day remains to complete the
fund. All subscriptions must be in
the hands of the Baltimore commit
tee by Friday evening.
The subcommittee which canvassed
Annapolis yesterday authorized Rev.
Walter G. Mcneil, the pastor of the
First Methodist Episcopal Church, to
receive and forward subscriptions.
Persons desiring to aid in the final
roundup will send their subscrip-
tions to him.

ORDNANCE TRAINING.
Good Work Done 10 Department for
Midshipmen-Praclical as Well
as Academic.

The Naval Academy. the bureau OF
ordnance, and in fact, tbs entire
naval service have reason to conerat-
ulate themselves upon the exception
al work done la the training Of mid
shipmen at Annapolis in the ordnance
de partment.
While all officers in that depart
ent have rendered most efficient SER
vice, il is not unfair to any of them
to mention in particular the services
of Commander l.. NJ. Mutton. who is
the head of che department, and
Ii ,ut. w. r. Van Auken, one of his
assistants. These two officers as
sume their duties in the ordnance
department some three years ago.
During the time that they have bee n
on this duty the course of instruction
has heen revolutionized.
The training given has not been
purely academic. 1t has been made
unusually practical by combining ad-
vanced theory with modern practice,
by improving the methods o. instruc-
tion, both in theory and in practice,
and by establishing between the Off
GERS and midshipmen a relationship
that has made possible the rapid ad-
vancement of the latter Theore tical
work has been rendered easier ana
more perfect by simplifying and re-
vising the course of instruction.
Text books have been rewritten
with such good effect that some of
them have been made use of by the
Navy at large and by the Army.
Practical work has been so modern
lied, extended and improved as to
make the graduates of the Academy
very useful as soon as they report on
board the ships to which they are as
signed.
AS a result of the course of train
ing which they have been through at
the Naval Academy, these young me
are able at once efficiently to take
their places at the guns and fire
control stations and in the fghtin :
tops of battleships. New training
devices, appropriate for use on land,
have been invented, and these, to-
gether with such modern guns, train
ing devices and fire-control parapher-
MALTA as are now in use on board ship,
have been procured from the bureau
of ordnance, and the midshipmen have
been trained in their use and care
under the personal direction and sn-
pervision of the above-me ntioned { fiji
GERS and ohers who, by their previous
successes on board fighting ships,
have demonstrated their eminent fit
ness for this important work.
