SNOW In THE AIR.
A Snow Storm Headed This Way So
''They Saw

Everybody who was out early this
morning shifted snow in the air, and
the weather bureau has the nerve
to say, after all the summer weather
we've been having, that snowstorm,
which was moving between Indianap-
oils and Pittsburg last nights sweep
ing toward this city.
The storm held up in the latter cicy
at late hour and Strengthened itself
out on the trail that leads to Balti-
more, thence to Annapolis. Accord
ing to the local prognosticator it is
only touching the high spots, and if
it run up to schedule, will arrive here
some time today. It is his firm be-
lief that it will blow in on time and
there was flake or two that fell this
morning.
However, a heavy rainstorm, which
has been lowering over Louisville for
the pase two days, started out from
that city last night to do a marathon
to this vicinity with the snowstorm.
The odds are in favor of the snow
storm. Zero weather was reported
last night throughout the Great Lake
Region.

EXECUTION FEE OF 5000
UNLAWFUL SAYS COURT
Judge Brashears Renders Opinion
in Injunction Case Today.
SHERIFF TO TAKE APPEAL.
If New Law is Stricken Down Then
Salary for Past Year Would be a
Record Breaker.

Judge Brashears in an opinion
handed down in the Circuit Court this
morning, holds that Sheriff George T.
Beasley is not entitled to the fee of
$500 for performing the execution of
murderer.
The decision was rendered in the
injunction suit Instituted by w. Ed
ward Cecil, a resident of the Fourth
district of the county, ia which ques-
tion was raised as to the salary of
the Sheriff, and certain alleged excess
fees allowed, together with the al
lowsnce of about SO. 800 for the pay
OF deputies.
In other words, the opinion of
Judge Brashears declares Chapter %
of the Acts of the Legislature of
1912 unconstitutional as far as the
fee for officiating at an execution is
concerned, but valid as pertains to
the other provisions.
A demurrer to the suit was enter
ed, and are uments were heard in open
Court few days ago. The petition
er, among other things, ,contended that
the allowance of the $500 fee for
execution is not only exorbitant, but
contrary to the provisions of the
Constitution.
This contention is supported in the
opinion of Judge Brashears, which
says in effect that the office of Sheriff
is ia the same category with other
officials whose compensation is regu-
lated thereby. The opinion further
comments that while the duty of tx-
ecuting the death sentence is an un-
pleasant one, yet Sheriff, upon TAX
ing office, realizes that that is one of
the duties he obligates himself TO.
The case was argued in Court by
w. Hallam Claude for the petitioner
and Ridgley P. Melvin and Robert
Moss for the county.
1t is understood that Sheriff Beas-
ley will carry the case to the Court
of Appeals for a final decision. 1t
was stated that, in the event of
the highest court striking down the
Act of 1919 entirely, it would mean
a reversion to the old law by which
the salary of the Sheriff was gov
erned entirely by the fee system,
and that the officials earnings for
the past year would amount TO at
least s15, 900. In Chis connection. it
is pointed out that the duties Of the
office in the year were the heaviest
ia the history of the county
There have been two executions
which would carry the $500 fee. viz,
that of Andrew Taylor, colored, in
August last, and James Jacobs, col
ored, on January 10.

AN APPEAL.
To Bring Comfort TO Last Days Of
Aged Widow Of Physician.

At the County Home of this county
Ia place which in our plain speech is
known as the Poor Rouse-the only
white inmate of the female ward is a
gentlewoman, eighty four years old.
the daughter and widow of physi-
clans.
Mrs. Wilkinson's father was the
late DR.. john Calhoun, and her hus-
band was Dr. Samuel Wilkinson, both
Of whom practised for many years in
Washington. Her husband has been
dead for twenty-five years and she
has no living relatives. Finding il
necessary, some years after her hus-
bands death, to support herself, she
took a position as housekeeper for
a Mr.. Clayton, at West River; and
after his death she lived with Mr..
and Mrs. Armstrong, also in this
county.
When they died she was too old to
earn her own living and had no re-
source but to apply for admission to
the Poor House. A few persons who
have learned the circumstances are
now making an effort to raise the few
hundred dollars required to place her
in a Home for old ladies. 1t is ear
nestly hoped that il may be possible
to bring comfort to the last days of
this woman, the daughter and the
wife of men whose profession required
them to render to humanity much
service for which they asked no pay
ment
The Evening Capital has opened
subscription list with the hope of
raising funds necessary to place the
old lady in the Home for Physicians
Widows in Baltimore. Any amount,
no matter how small, will be CRATE
fully received at this office. Every
physician in Annapolis and Anne
Arundel county, as well as other
people, are asked to subscribe and
may telephone their desire and
will be called upon later for their
onation. Who will start the list?

THE MORTON BALL.
Society Enjoys Hospitality Of Delightful
Hostess at Severn Heights.

That large portion of Annapolis and
Naval Academy society that enjoyed
the privilege of the hospitality dis
pensed meath the wine and fig tree"
of the "Ric Mortons" last night at
Severn Heights, are enthusiastic in
their praise of the jolly good time
everybody had at the Morton ball.
Mrs. Morton, at all times a charm
ing hostess, never appeared to better
advantage than on Ihis occasion and
was handsome in an elegant gown of
rose colored brocade, veiled with
exquisite lace. Her sister, Mrs
Mordeci, of Baltimore, who assisted
in receiving, was elegantly gowned
in tlack brocaGe, with sulplice waist
of rare old lace.
The guests were given hearty
welcome and throughout the evening
Mrs. Morton, the hostess, was untir-
ing in her efforts to see to the per-
sona comfort and welfare of each
individual guest. A mere thought
full, considerate and altogether charm
ing hostess than Mrs. Morton cannot
be found.
Dancing began almost immediate
ly upon the arrival of the guests.
All the furniture had been removed
from ths large conservatory and living
room, which was festooned with Flor
ida moss, and the lights were shaded
with pink-a lovely effect in color
ing of gray and pink tones. In the
library punch was served amid vases
of orchids and gardenias. In the din.
ing room the color scheme was green
and white and annunciation lilies and
ferns were used there effectively in
the decorations.
A delicious supper was served.
The menu, included crcquetts and
French peas. chicken salad, jellied
ham, French rolls, Maryland biscuit
olives and ices, cakes and bon bons all
served te.nptingly and appetizingly.
The dance was one of the most
pleasurable social events of the sea-
son. and when the guests said good
bye to their charming hostess it was
with earnest appreciation of her de-
lightful hospitality.

ColIegiaus and Score is 48 10 10.

Flushed with victories over Penn
sylvania Military College, at Chester
On Saturday, and Delaware College,
at Newark, on Friday, the basketball
team of st. Johns College put it all
over the quint of Virginia Military
Institute last night. The count was
4S to 10.
In spite Of the one-sided score. the
visitors put up an aggressive game
all the way, particularly in the lat.
ter part of the second half, when the ,
forced the local collegians to extend
themselves to the utmost. In the
early stages, however, st. Johns
managed to score quite easily.
The teams were evenly matched a $
far as weight is cone srned, but the
locals were not only faster in attack,
but their defense proved beyond mas
terry Of the Southerners. ST. Johns
jumped into the lead at the outset.
and when the first half closed had
rolled up 20 points against z fer the
Virginians. Many of st. Johns tai
lies were added in the early stages of
