NOISY WELCOME FOR BABY YEAR
COwbells. Horns, PistoI-Firing Etc.
Kept Up Racket Until Early
Morning Hours.

The spirit of the New Year holi
day is general all over Annapolis to.
day. All public buildings offices and
banks were closed for the day.
When they ceased operations yes.
terday afternoon, they closed their
doors to remain closed until Thursday
morning. Furthermore, nearly all OF
che merchants closed for all, or part
of the day and like Christmas the
day was quietly observed as holiday.
The day dawned bright and balmy
IS an early Spring morning, and the
prevailing conditions furnished all
that could be desired by society folks
for New Years Day as usual was one
of receiving and paying calls among
friends.
The air was as temperate and pleas
ant as mid-April day, and Old Sol
has been shedding it's rays brightly
all day iong. There were but few
public receptions, however, either in
the city or at the Naval Academy,
though a multitude of residents paid
informal call on friends.
The principal reception in the city
was that at the Executive Mansion.
Governor and Mrs. Goldsbrough
received the Office RS of the militia
of the State during the forenoon,
and for the rest of the day prac-
tically kept open house. Many resi-
dents Of the city called in the course
of the day and offered the seasons
greetings to the Chief Executive and
the mistress of the Mansion.
At the Naval Academy, Superin-
tendent and MRS. Gibbons had big
reception at their quarters in Blake
Row, between the hours of 8
o'clock They were assisted by the
wives of a number of officers on
duty at the Academy. In accord
ance with custom, the midshipmen of
the first class, paid their usual New
Years call on the Academy's chief.
The birth of the New Year was
welcomed with rip and a roar and
a zip and bang in the city. Ola
and young people paraded through the
streets from early last evening ultil
the wee sma' hours of the morning.
Horns, cowbells and various other
rackets added 20 the din of noise, as
the old year was drawing to a close,
and there was the usual firing of pis-
tolls and the changing of the church
and fire bells and blowing of whistles
from few minutes before until a
few minutes after the midnight hour.
This sensible form of the celebra-
tion was much the same as in former
years, but the rowdyism INDUCED in
on Main street and other sectors of
the city, referred to elsewhere in The
Capital, put a damper on it all.

FIRST PARCEL POST WILSON'S.
Package Delivered to President Elect
at 1907 A. M.

President-elect Wilson got the
first package sent through the parcels
post. 1t was delivered to him seven
minutes after the new year began.
The Princeton, IN. J.) postofice
was notified that the Woodrow Wilson
Club of that place waited to deliver
a box of fine New Jersey apples to
the Governo: and to get it to him by
parcels post before anybody else in
the country.
As the university clock announc ed
the death of the old year the package
was handed in to Postmaster Robin
son. Thirteen cents worth of stamps
were posted on with an insurance
stamp that cost an extra nickle and
insured its delivery. 1t was prompt
ly handed out to Carrier Rockefeller,
who made record time to Governor
Wilson's house and got there at 1907
a. m.
Mr.. Wilson had been Motif ID by tel
ephone that it was coming and one of
the servants at his hume was waiting
to receive it. The first package sent
out by parcels post in the United
States weighed eight pounds and
eight ounces and contained two dozen
apples.

EIGHT BELLS" SOUND
PASSING OF OLD YEAR
Happy ThrOng Dances New Year
in at the Naval Academy.
IN DARKNESS FOR INSTANT.
Lights Turned Out as Midnight Hour
Arrived, 0Dly to be Quickly
Flashed on Again.

Gliding gracefully over the gym
nasium floor, some several hundred
society folks of tnis city, Baltimore,
Washington and other nearby points,
| danced the Old Year out and the New
Year in, as guests of the midshipmen
at the Naval Academy at their an
nual New Years Eve ball.
The attendance was unusually
large and while the dancing began
shortly after o'clock, practically
everyone remained for the interesting
ceremony of ringing out the old and
ringing in the New Year when the
hour of midnight arrived.
Suggestive Of the holiday season,
the gymnasium was decorated with
sprigs of holly and other evergreens.
while the receiving stand at one
side of the room. was bower Of
palms, and other potted plants. Mrs
Christy, wife of Commander Howard
H. Christy, assisted by Midshipman
II. d. Skinner. of the first class,
received the guests. The dancers be-
gan to arrive early, though il was
well after 8 o'clock before tie receiv-
ing party retired from the receiving
booth to participate in the dancing.
Refreshments were served during
the evening.
AS the midnight hour drew nigh,
the lights were gradually dimmed,
and at the stroke of the hour they
were shut off entirely, while Miss
Grinnell, of Grand Rapids. Mich, who
is house guest of Superintendent
and Mrs. Gibbons. asceuded a plat
form, where stood large brass bell,
and tapped "eight BELLS" the nauti-
cal number of strokes of the midnight
hour, thus signalling the passing of
the old and the advent of the new
year.
Almost simultaneously the lights
were turned on again, and the dancers
glided about the floor TO the strains
of Home, Sweet Home" played by
a stringed orchestra Of the Academy
band. The new year spirit was ram
pant, and il was a happy throng
vending their way homeward at the
close of the ceremony.

DR.. WELLS FIRST TO
USE NEW PARCELSPOST
Package Consigned to a Friend Dis
patched From Local Office.
SERVICE In FULL EFFECT.
Eighteen Articles Make Up First
Shipment But None So Far Has
Been Received.

Pomptly after the hour of last mid
night, the parcels past system of dis
patching packages through the United
States mails, one of the most stupen-
dous postal undertakings OF the Gov
ernment was inaugurated at the local
postoffice, as we'll as throughout the
| country and Uncle Sans insular pos
sessions. 1t is the result of a half
century of agitation.
DR.. George Wells, the well-known
Democratic political leader of this
city and county, gained the distinction
of sending the first parcel through
the local postoffice. Early last night
he prepared package. consigned to
frie nd, and deposited it with the
officials at the Federal office, to be
dispatched as soon as the wheels of
the new system were set in action.
Postmaster Daniel K. Randall stated
this morning that something like
eighteen parcels made up the first
pouch of such matter sent out from
Annapolis. Tp to noon none destiIed
for local delivery had been received
at the office.
that all matter coming through the
parcels post system will be delivered
by the carriers as far as practicable,
but as the business increases it is
said, that extra carriers will be en-
ployed, or that delivery wagon will
be placed on the streets.
The strokes of the last hour of 1912
were dying away when the Postmas-
ter-General stepped up TO the window
under the newly painted inscription
Parcels Post Packages, at the
Washington office, and handed in the
official First package" At the same
moment the parcels post service was
opened for business in every post
office in the United States.
Postmaster-General Hitchcock's
package contained a silver loving cup
inclosed in a stout box. The package
was addressed to E. Nj. Morgan, post
master of the city of New York, and
after 1t has reached the end of its
journey it will be sent back to Wash
ington, to be engraved and preserved
in the National Museum to commem-
crate the inauguration of the service.
The Postmaster General paid 81
cents worth of stamps affixed to the
package, which weighed about two
pounds. OF this IL cents was for
regular postage and 10 cents for sim
surance," or registration. In the
regular course of the mails the pack
age would be placed on board a train
leaving Washington at 2:45 a. m.
Several postmasters have already
reported that large departms snt stores
and mail order houses ia the big cit
les, such as New York, Baltimore,
Chicago, Cincinnati. st. Louis and
Boston, have signified their intention
of using the parcels post for local de-
liveries to replace express companies
and private service.
This new service, which in effect
is a baby express" will directly
reach 20, OC0, 600 more persons than
are now reached by the private ex-
press companies. 1t will collect and
deliver packages of farm produce and
merchandise, weighing under IL
pounds and properly packed, at the
farmers door in the country and at
the consumers door in the city.
