The Navy Department has received
a report Of a rescue by Frank James,
seaman on the Chattanooga, of a lady
and young girl who were in danger OF
being struck by an automobile at the
San Francisco Exposition on May 90.
1t appears that James rescued the cou-
pie at considerable risk to himself.
The Secretary of the Navy has com
municatod TO the commander-in-chief
of the Pacific fleet his admiration of the
prompt and efficient action of the per-
sonnel in bringing about the rescue OF
five occupants of a capsized sailboat
which capsized while one-half mile
away from the Colorado on the after
noon of August 18.The report shows
that within eight minutes after the sail
boat capsized all of the occupants had
been rescued from the water and were
safely aboard the motor barge al
though the distance covered was fully
half mile.

WHY is ANNAPOLIS FIRM.
Because Its Citizens Have Learned
the Truth.

After reading this generous and en-
couraging report from Mr.. White,
those who have the misfortune to
suffer, as he did. will naturally long
to get similar relief. But to get the
same good as Mr. White had, you should
get the same remedy. There are of
course, other kidney pills but there are
no other kidney pills the same as
Doan's. That is why Annapolis peo-
pie demand the genuine.
Joseph A. White, 81 Cornhill St.,
Annapolis, says: 81 had pains
through my back and shoulders, some
times extending into my fingers. My
hands were so stiff that could hardly
use them. The kidney secretions were
profuse and painful in passage and
contained sediment. Doan's Kidney
Pills helped me so after / began using
them and before long, the trouble was
removed. All the credit for this cure
belongs to Doan's kidney Pills. F"

EGGS MATCHED INSIDE SNAKE
KILL UNWILLING INCUBATOR.
Orphan Chicks Left by Egg-Stealing
Serpent Are MOthered by Can
tankerous Pussy Cut.

While there may be few people who
believe the stories of peculiarities OF
chickens and other dumb living things,
Mrs. Fraklin Watson, of Quaker Neck,
Nd, says she knows such things really
do happen, and narrated an experience
of her own to prove her contention
"We had a blacksnake that lived in
our meathouse and woodpile," she said,
"he kept us clear of mice and rats, but,
after they got scarce het urned his at
tention to the hen house and began
stealing eggs. One day we missed six
eggs from beneath a setting hen that
was about ready to hatch. wondered
where they went, as our snake seemed
too finicky TO want only fresh eggs.
saw the snake lying in the woodpile,
and he seemed TO be i'm misery and was
breathing hard. heard the peep OF
voung chicks, but could not find them.
] listened and decided the 'peeping' was
coming from the snakes mouth. l got
hatchet and knife,cu OFF his head and
ripped him open. Inside 1 found four
live chicks and two dead ones. The
dead ones were nearest the snakes tail.
The egg had hatched inside the snake
and two of the chicks had smothered.
| took the live ones TO the house, put
them in basket. They soon got lively
and our cat got to paying much at
tention to them.
"one morning looked into the bas-
ket and there was the cat smothering
the four orphan chickens. put them
out for exercise that day, and the cat
went with them. Every time the cat
would meow the chicks would run to
her.
But that isn't the worst, believe me.
for that cat would go out to the wood
pile and scratch for the little chicks
the same as an old hen would do Now
this really happened. and this is the
i reason I believe the stories in news
papers, and especially that one about
the hen eating chestnuts and Matching
chicks covered with chestnut burrs in
stead of feathers"

The General Assembly Has the Power
to Vote Amy Part Of the State TO
Baltimore Without the Consent Of
the People Living in the Locality
Connected to the City.
(CommunicatedJ

Communicated
Messrs. Editor:
A layman and a lawyer have, in
separate articles, in your journal
stated that the people of a locality,
proposed to be annexed to Baltimore
city. will have the right to vote on the
q-.estion.
That is incorrect. A large and valu-
able section was annexed to Baltimore
City out of Baltimore county against
the protests and votes of the members
of the Legislature from that county
and without the consent of the legal
voters of the locality annexed. An
appeal of the Court of Appeals insti-
tuted the constitutionality Of the Act,
because the Constitution of Maryland
provided that while changes in county
line of one part of county to another
could not be made without the con-
sent of the legal voters in the section
proposed to be changed it did not apply
to the City of Baltimore which subject
had been left to the discretion OF the
General Assembly. regret that a
long distance from copies of the Con-
stitution of Maryland and the reports
of the Maryland Court of Appeals pre-
vents me from quoting exact words
from the opinion and of giving the ref
erence to the decision.
Your lay and legal correspond
have company in that oversight. Not
so long since one of the luminaries of
journalism in Baltimore City itself
made thu same statement in an editor.
ial. A few months later, light hav-
ing evidently dawned on its legal in
tellect. the same newspaper in its
same editorial columns. published the
contrary fact and the actual law of the
question of metropolitan annexation,
but without any reference to its form
er almost objectionable journalistic
error, for beacon should never cover
its light to the people nor trumpet
give an uncertain sound.

Orders Name Stricken OFF MackIin's $
Book; Project May be Abandoned.

One OF Maryland's citizen soldiers
who enlisted for the encampment at
Saunders Range from September % to
October 2 apparently got cold feet and
has ordered his name stricken off the
enrolment list.
Monday being a holiday, there was
no one at the Baltimore Offices of the
Adjutant General to enroll the appli-
cants, although the rooms were open
and the enlistment book was spread
out on a desk in full view OF any would
be volunteer. However, up to noon on
that day no patriots had stepped to the
front for enlistment for the camp.
Adjutant General Macl1lin is in Cum
berland in the interest of his campaign
for Comptroller of the State His wife
said that the General was Informed that
three applicants had been filed at his
Office, Annapolis, which makes the army
twenty-five strong. Mrs. Macklin said
he General was much discouraged over
the lack of volunteers for the camp
HE fels that he has done all he could
to make the affair a success" said Mrs.
Macklin. "Of course, he cannot go out
and compel the people to take this inn
poratant military training"
Some of those interested in the en-
campment, notably Maryland League
for national defense. feel that there will
be a rush of applicants for the encamp-
ment after today. If that prediction
does not come true within the next day
or so, the indications are that General
Macklin will call the whole affair off
upon bis return from his present cam
paign tour.
