HARD TO PASS MUSTER.
Standard Required for Navy Enlist
ments Excludes Many Applicants.

Though navy officials are said to be
anxious to bring the navy up to its full
enlisted strength, the severe require
ments, physical and mental. that can
didates have to meet are not being les
sened in the slightest.

Lieutenant Hill. the officer in charge
reported that thirty-three young men
presented themselves recently for en-
listment i'm the service. OF that num-
Der but eight measured up to the re-
quired standard and were allowed 10

4 SLEEPLESS TOWN
BECAUSE OF MOTOR BOATS.
Great Nuisance to Entire Community
Who Endure in Silence.


Possibly because what cannot be

ne residents of Annapolis and the
Naval Academy endure the motor boat
uisance at 2 a. m until daylight in
ilence. Certain il is that Annapolis
is fast becoming "Sleepless City,"
TOR no one can sleep with that endless
hug, chug of motor boats which be-
sins at o'clock every morning and
continues until the other noises of milk
wagons, ice carts, etc. etc, drown
ne chugging.
But this public nuisance can be cured.

he State authorities, and to the Fed

Saturday, October 30, is the annual
Donation Day at the Emergency Hos
pital 1t is urged that every house
keeper, every citizen, send donations
on the coming Saturday to the Emer-

If ever the hospital needed help it is
now. Owing to the deficit of 1,50O 600

Hospital has had its State appropria-
tion for the past two years cut off.
This has been a great hardship. as the
hospital treats so many patients free.

local institution this year by sending
generous donations of fruit, vegeta-
bles, cereal, canned goods preserves.

Please send donations TO the Emer-

MIDSEASON ClAMITY
DOESN'T SCARE MIDDIES
GridirOn Warriors Not Affected by
West Points III Luck.
THE HOWL FROM THE HUDSON.
Heard About This Time Every Year
Creates No Impression On Navy's
Team.

The usual midSeason calamity howl
from West Point is being given cut. but
its influence on the course of gridron
events AT the Naval Academy is not ap-
preciable. Every year. at about this
time, reports from the Hudson fll the
newspapers that all the best men on
the Army team are in the hospital that
the players upon which the team has
relied have gone To pieces. and that
nearly every player has suffered a re-
versal OF form SO serious that he would
hardly make a good croquet PLAYER.
This is the howl from the hudson
that appeared in the New York news
papers today: "Fumbling ia the

passer in the overhead plays and the
slipshod work of the varsity forwards,
especially on the defense. were very
noticeable Murrill. the varsity quar-
ter. was thrown four times for loss
when trying to launch forward pass

These reports do not create much
impression at the Naval Academy, or
convince anybody that they will have
weak team TO oppose when they meet
the Army
At the Academy yesterday work with
the forward pass continued with fair
success. The midshipmen are using "A

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS
CAUSES TWO ARRESTS
Local S. P. c. A. Doing Good Work in
the COunty---HOrse Starved,
Owner PAYS Fine.

The Society for Prevention of Cru
city to Animals is doing good work in
this city and county, and means TO
punish all offenders regardless of their
position in life or the money they may
possess.
Local Agent Luke Raley is kept busy
looking out for cases that occur. not
only in Annapolis, but far out into the
county, where owners of horses half
starve or treat them cruelty. This
week he has been called in TO assist
him the Baltimore agent, Mr.. Charles
Narcotic who came here yesterday on
a county case.
IL had been reported that Gustav r.
Schady. of near Winchester, had starv-
ed one of his horses, which was in such
a bad condition, having been down 1902
hours when seen by the agents, that
the animal had to be shot on Tues
day last TO end its suffering.
The horse had been so neglected that
its bones were protruding through its
skin. Yesterday II was again reported
that Schady was starving another
horse, and Agent Raley, for the local
S. p. c. A, and Agent Narcotic, for the
Baltimore Society, visited the farm
and found the other horse in half
starved condition, and fearfully neg
lected by the owner.
1t was alleged by Schady's family
that he had come to Annapolis to get
feed, but would return without it. and
the animal was suffering from want
of food and neglect. Schady was ar
rested by the agents and had hear
ing before Police Juctice William f.
Minick He was fined $1325 in each
case, which he paid
Yesterday, the local agent Journey

animal had to be shot kotzin was
seen driving this horse on the streets
OF Annapolis last Tuesday, and was
warned to suspend the animal from

AMERICANS GO
 DOWN IN SHIP SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS ARE THREATENED BETWEEN
 U. s. AND GERMANY.
WILSON TAXES 1T UP
CAPTAIN OF OIL TANK FER AMONGST THOSE LOST
 ON VESSEL.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-The most serious complications have now arisen between this country and Germany owing to the fact that when the American oil ship was sunk by a German submarine in the North sea yesterday the captain and two of the crew were lost. The matter is so grave that President Wilson himself has decided to take presonal charge of the investigations into it so that the affair might be treated with the seriousness and the care which are unquestionably necessary. The gray est feeling has arisen here in official and unofficial circles as the people generally understand that the loss of American lives is something that can not be overlooked. The act of the German submarine is looked upon as the most serious violation of the neutrality of the United States which has yet occurred as result of the great war. So important is the occur renee believed to be that an ominous silence is being maintained by the authorities until the full facts are ascertained.

REPORT MAIDOS
 NOW CAPTURED
KEY TO DARDANELLES SAID TO HAVE FALLEN INTO
 ALLIED HANDS.

LONDON, May At is reported here today that Maidos, which is re- garded as the key to the Dardanelles, has been captured by the allies. Maidos is on the Gallipoli peninsula north of the Dardanelles but not far from the sea. If the story is true it disproves the information sent out from Constantinople and Berlin to the effect that our troops suffered a severe reverse. The position is a strong one and should afford perfect base for our future operations in the attempt to capture the north shore ot the straits. No word has been pub lished here that would confirm the news from Constantinople that three allied ships were badly damaged nor has anything been said about the re-
 port from Athens of the French dis aster on the south of the Dardanelles.

GERMANS RENEW
 GREAT BATTLE
YPRES DISTRICT AGAIN SCENE OF FIERCE TEUTONIC
 ATTACKS.

LONDON. May 4.-The Germans have renewed the aggressive in the region of Ypres and once more the great battle which ragged so Savagely there some days ago is being waged with fierce bitterness in the German hope of reaching the French coast. The deadieSt attacks of the enemy are being levelled at our positions near St. Julien and particularly at Hill Sixty where the Allied forces are strongly entrenched From the meag- CT accounts coming of the new at tack 1t can be guessed that the enemy has now brought up still greater re- Inducements and that he is using the same determination that marked his former offensive in the same district. The Allies are stated in the bulletin to be at least holding their own in the battle so far as it has proceeded but further great lists of losses are looked for Later news of the fight is being awaited with interest and anxiety.
