The Capitals Birthday.

With the issue Of yesterday. another
chapter in the CAPITALS book Of
every day chronicle Of Annapolis life
and happenings, was finished; another
volume completed. and today we turn
over a new leaf, clean page and be-
gin new volume.
What is to be written thereon, of the
joys and SORROWS. the births, marriages,
deaths and funerals Of a people who
make this city their home will furnish
the subject matter for the new volume,
together with other items of local news
and interest, but what is 10 be written
on the margin of the pages Of this
local daily newspaper, will count for
even more.
May il continue to stand for that
which il right in this city, that which
is clean and holesome in news
paper life, that which even the child Of
the family may read. May it stand for
the city's best interest, for the people
as class and not for individuals !
We hope il may, intend it shall, and be-
lieve il will.
On May II. 1884, just thirty-one years
ago today, the EVENING CAPITAL
was established in this city. Thirty
one years ago today the modest little
paper made its first appearance, and
for thirty-one long years il has. day
by day. written the story of Annapo-
lis's life and chronicled the local daily
news happenings.
For thirty-one years it has come
into your homes, until now it is part
of the daily life of every family in this
city.
The CAPITAL has made history.
Indeed, it is the ONLY real history of
Annapolis, and its volumes are sought
almost daily for reference Of irlport-
ant events in the city's life for the past
thirty-one years.
This paper has been one of the few
manufactures of this city, and as a
manufactory it has been valuable as
set to the city's business interests.
Few local business houses have been
established 40 long without a change
Of firm. but the EVENING CAPITAL
has been conducted and managed by
the same firm, and has been in the
same family for the entire thirty-one
years of it's. existence. IL begins its
new year with a brighter outlook, n
tiNIc adsHiSluuS AutuES bhdn at tnS
beginning of any previous year in its
history. New equipment has been
added. new machinery installed. not
the least of which is an up.to-date
Mergenthaler Linotype machine, which,
when it's intricate mechanism has been
thoroughly mastered by the Office
force, we anticipate will enable US to
make our appearance daily in new
dress, of the neatest pattern and latest
style, and dress. even a newspaper
dress, counts for much these times.
AS we enter upon our new volume
today, il is with the intent and pur-
pose of giving better service the COM
ing year, and we hope for the earnest
support and cooperation of the people
of Annapolis. of friends and patrons
in the future, as we have had their
encouragement in the past.

TEA FOR MEN IN TRENCHES
EnqIishmen Believe French and Ger
man Soldiers May Form
Habit.

London.-Both the French and Ger
man troops are being supplied with
tea in the trenches. Tea is easier to
make and is a better thirst quencher
than coffee and it also keeps warm
longer. which is an important consid-
Grafton in the trenches.
1t is just possible that both the
French and Germans will get to like
tea, and both nations may become
large tea users after the war. At
present France and Germany, with a
combined population Of more than a
hundred millions, are negligible as
tea consumers.
1t is likely that Englishmen too
many learn some new tastes and new
habits when the British soldiers come
home. They may bring back a taste
for strong coffee. cheap wine and black
cigarettes. French soldiers brought
back from Algeria the taste of abb
sinthe, and English officers brought
from Egypt in 1885 the cigarette
habit.

drew his revolver instead, but the
Frenchman was quicker and shot him
dead.
The report was heard by the sentry
at the chateau and brought a strong
force of Germans on the run. The
French soldiers were waiting near by
to assist their chief, but one glance
was enough to see that they were
greatly outnumbered and all fed back
to the woods, not one being even
wounded.
A similar incident had occurred only
a few days before at Beauraing, ten
miles away, when a German captain
had beer killed, and the military au-
thorities %.hereupon decided to make a
thorough search of the forest to round
up the French troops. More than one
thousand e took part in the search,
but not a Frenchman was found.
Meanwhile the attacks have con
tinued and the Germans in the regions
of Houyet, Geduine, Saint-Hubert,
Beauraing and Givet are terrorized.
No officer dares venture out alone. no
stranger is allowed to pass. NJ. Speyer,
the Belgian senator, who has taken
charge of the feeding of the remain
ing inhabitants of these regions. has
been subjected to a close watch dur
ing all his visits, and he is practically
the only one tolerated in these towns.
The authority for this story saw the
French commander only two weeks
ago and succeeded in getting through
the German lines and back to Paris.
At that time the German military au-
thorities had posted throughout the
two Belgian provinces of Luxembourg
and Namur the following nnounc
ment addressed to the fugitive sol
diers:
French soldiers:
|, I'VE know where you are and have
full information regarding your
strength. In your own interest we ad-
wise you to surrender and promise
that your lives will be safe. If you re-
fuse every one of you will be shot,
On the following morning the Ger
mans were amazed to find written in a
bold hand across several of the post
ers the following line:
If you know where we are Why
don't you come and get u.s."
And underneath appeared the sigma
ture of the French commanding Off
Ger, with his full name and rank and
the number of his regiment.

SAVED FOR. PRINCES SAKE
Germans Spare Maubeuge, France, Be.
cause Of Treatment Given the
kaiser's Dying Nephew.

BoulOgne, France.-Because a young
French Red Cross nurse took interest
in an eighteen-year-old German lieu
tenant, who was brought unconscious
into the hospital at Maubeuge, and
died three days later, the city Of Maui
beuge has been favored by it's German
conquerors, and is enjoying a greater
degree Of freedom than any Of the
other French border towns in German
territory.
The wounded German was the prince
Of Saxe-Meiningen, nephew Of the en-
peror. He had suffered a fractured
skull and died without r%egaining con
seriousness.
At the suggestion of the nurse, the
local authorities gave the prince the
funeral honors due his rank, photo
graphed the body and coffin, and sent
the photographs. together with the
personal belongings Of the prince and
a detailed account Of his illness to his
family at Meiningen.
The young mans fathers the duke
Of Saxe-Meiningen, acknowledged the
courtesies in a letter expressing deep
est appreciation and later-when the
Germans entered Maubeuge - he
proved his gratitude by directing the
troops occupying the fortress town to
treat the inhabitants with the utmost
consideration. The nurse was given a
safe conduct through the German
lines.

LEARN TO DISCOUNT DANGER
British Medical Officer Studies the
Psychology of Courage Among
the Soldiers.

London.-A medical officer who has
osy of courage at the British front,
says that most men confess to a feel
ing of fear which only wears off after
several days in the trenches. But
One this physical instinct of terror
is conquered, there comes says the
which, while not despising danger, is
able to discount it. Under fire these
men find a self hitherto unsupported,
an elusive quality which for want of
a better title is called manhood"
The soldier learns first to control,
then to measure. his fear he says.
He learns tt discount possibilities
just as the ordinary railroad traveller
does. And the work in hand generally
engages and holds more and more of
his attention. Then comes a time
when he wants to go back to the fir
ing line, not because it is pleasant
there, but because staying away is
just impossible.
while the man who has not yet
been under fire cannot safely count
upon experiencing this or that
particular feeling when his hour
comes-this depending upon tempera-
ment and circumstances-he can l
believe, count upon soon achieving
the second courage, which is the price
less possession of the veteran. I'm
der fire he may lose every precon-
ceived notion he ever cherished or
stunned, but it is highly probable
that he will find himself"
