MORE PATRONAGE OR
COMPETITION CEASES
Eastern Shore Steamer Line Makes
Statement of Facts.
APPEALS TO MERCHANTS.
Advantages Of The Shorter and Quicker
Route TO Shore Via AnnapO lis,
Fully Set Forth.

An appeal to the merchants and
persons travelling TO the Eastern Shore
is being made by the eastern Shore
Devel 1pment Steamship Company,
and unless this appeal has some effect
it locke as though the quick service
between Baltimore and points aero IS
the bay will have TO be discontinued.
1t is plainly stated that unless the
company secures the patronage of
those travelling to that section the
line will have to give up the service.
The mail and newspapers are carried
by this route, and, ss result get to
the Shore an hour or more quicker
than by any other steamboat COM
pany.
1t is generally regarded tn 1T should
the Eastern Shore Development
Steamship Company be compelled to
abandon the service il will be the
fault of the merchants of the several
cities concerned, failing to use the
line and the travelling public prefer
ring TO make the trip by another
route.
The Washington, Baltimore and
Annapolis Ele ctric Line saves a great
deal of time, and il is pointed out
that persons using the route, which
is now struggling to exist, may board
the cars at any point in Baltimore or
Washin gton touched by the cars. On
the other hand, the other route is en-
tirely by water and those taking it
must 90 TO the docks. This new route
was started about eighteen months
ago aud two daily trips are given the
public.
There are two routes to the East
ern Shore of Maryland, +" says the ap-
peal, which is being made by the COM
pany. Zone is the old. slow, long
water trip, leaving Baltimore from
down on the docks. For many years
only one round trip day was made
during nine months of the year and
no trip on Sunday
I'VE started new route eigh-
teen months ago and Immediately
gave two trips day, and have con-
tinued to do 40 ever since. We also
gave the early mail and newspaper
delivery TO the Eastern Shore.
This winter the old company
announced double service, and in
order to take the long trip down
the bay, it is necessary for che first
train to leave Claiborne an hour
and twenty minutes later than the
schedule of former wears.
This puts the Eastern Shore
further away from Baltimore than
ever, and means that the Philadel-
phia newspapers reach that territory
earlier than Baltimore.
1t is then pointed out by the
company that in going from Balti-
more an hour is saved and in the
return from one to two hours is the
saving in time.
If you wish a service that saves
time. said the appeal; ''if you wish
competition; II you wish this company
to continue, we need your patron
age.
The same company, via the W.,
B.& A, also operates to Patuxent
River points, Cambridge and Oxford

In such an emergency, a repro

the only medium through which the
mind may grasp adequately the mag

all standards of comparison are lost.

EXAMS FOR ACADEMY
ARE NOT TOO SEVERE
Navy Department Gets Replies
From High School Tutors.
NOT TO CHANGE SYSTEM.
Held That Criticisms Made in Congress
as To Character Of Questions Are
Not We'll Founded.

The Navy Department has received
replies of the representatives OF high
schools in all parts of the country to
whom were sent circular containing
extracts from the examination papers
tor admission TO the Naval Academy
with the reque st tht the recipients of
this information would inform the
Secretary of the Navy whe ther or not
this examination might be regarded
as excessive iD its requirements of
graduates of the schools and others
who We're destined to become candi-
dates for appointment to the position
of midshipman.
As expected, in many quarters, the
replies are as varied as is possible,
considering the source of the views
expressed. So far as has been possi-
BILE to determine, the expert opinion
is divided. with the larger portion
taking the position that the examina-
tion is not severe to the extent, as
has been claimed by some of the
critics in Congress. that worthy
young men are deprived of an oppor-
tunity to enter the institution or that
they are required to go to much ex-
pense and trouble in the way of ae-
quiring preliminary training and
knowledge in qualifying for sdmis-
sion.
1t has, therefore, been decided by
the Secretary of the Navy not to
make any radical change in the en-
trance examination at the Naval Acad-
emy II has been maintained by the
academic authorities that it would be
a great mistake to lower the standard
merely on account of the attack 8
which have been made on the system,
especially as it has been felt that the
criticism is not we'll founded and, in
addition, was directed against class
of questions, largely relating to
world history, which were eliminated
juring the former administration.

DEATH OF Mr.. EDGAR QUAD.
Young Man Passes Away After Long
Illness.

After a long illness during which
he suffered great deal, Mr.. James
Edgar Quaid died at an early hour
this morning at the home of his
parents on Conduit street.
The deceased is survived by a
widow and one child, young daugh-
ter. Besides his parents he is sur

F. Quaid and William Quaid, and his
sisters, Mrs. Atwell, Mrs. Horton,
wife of DR.. Horton, of Curtis Bay,

The deceased had been in failing
health or years. He was too am
bilious for his strength and entered
into too many lines of work. For
some years he was faithful and eff
cient clerk for the firm of Jones &
Franklin. At odd times he took up
photography and made a grea deal of
this work. Then be engaged in the
chicks business and was chicken
fancier, raising brood of fine strain
and making this an important work
in connection with the rest.
The work he engaged in was too
much for the frail body, the young
man being under stature and of deli
cate frame and constitution. He
gave way, his health was broken and
day by day he grew weaker, later
taking to his bed, from which he had
not risen for many months. Death
came as a relief to the great sufferer,
who is at rest and peace.
The deceased, though a young
man, as counted in years, was one
of our most useful and popular citi-
zens, having always been identified,
from his manhood until stricken with
the disease which eliminated in his
death, with the best interests of the
city. He was member of Metropo.
lis Lodge of Odd Fellows and Ches a
peake Tribe of Red Men, in both Of
which orders be was a consistent
and faithful worker, never allowin {
an opportunity to pass when By
his presence or other manner he
could relieve the distress or eass
the suffering of his feIlow-man.
The deceased received his eduea
tion in the public schools of An
napois, and for many years was il
the employ of the grocery firm o
Jones & Franklin.
The funeral will be attended b.
the members of Metropolis lodge o
Odd Fellows and Chesapeake Tribe

ceased was a member. The flag ol
