The Evening Capital owes Profess
sor GLADDEN., of st. Johns College an
apology. Among the names of the
professors at the college who were
awarded degrees at the commencement
exercises yesterday, that of Professor
Thomas l.. GLADDEN. was unintentional-
ly omitted.
1t is one of those omissions that
creep in. sometimes, unavoidably.
The exercises we're not over until
after one o'clock and in the rush to get
the copy in shape Cor the printer the
name of Prof. GLADDEN. was unfortu-
nately omitted.
Prof. Thos. L. GLADDEN. was given
the degree of Master of Arts amid
great applaus from his many friends
and the student body, among whom
he stands high as teacher in mathe-
matics.
1t may also be said of Prof. GLADDEN.
that he has just completed his manu-
script on Plane Geometry. of which
several publishing houses are consid-
eriDg contracts for publishing.
1t is a great honor. indeed, to add
to the photography of the science of
mathematics a reputable text.

A RUMOR NAILED
POSITIVE DENIAL.
Neither Machine Gun Company Nor
First Regiment Ordered to the
Front.

A rumor which gained considerable
credance around the streets this aft
ernoon that the Machine Gun Company
of the First Regiment or the entire
Regiment was ordered to the Mexican
border. was positively denied at the
headquarters of General Gather, over
the telephone late this afternoon.
So positive was the rumor that sew
eral automobile parties rushed to the
camp. One of these parties included
Mayor Strange, T. Kent Green, Frank
A. Munroe and John Hyde.
Even in the face of what could be
almost impossible, the rumor was SO
positively stated that there was much
doubt. 1t would be almost an impos-
sibility for this Company to be order
ed to the front at once as their equip
men is incomplete, as well as their
need of several days of training at
least. They are in no condition at
present to face active service and
such an order under the conditions
would he disastrous and impossible,
except in the very direst need.
In all probability il will be several
days if not weeks. before any orders
for moving will be given the First
Regiment although that Regiment, if
the conditions warrant it, will no
doubt. be one of the first to 60, as
they are the first to fill their compile.

A FORCIBLE REMINDER
OF ONE YEAR AGO.
Remarkable Hail Storm Of June FL
1915 When Hail Fell the Size Of
Baseballs and Oranges --Yester-
days Terrific Blow Out Calls to
Mind Similar Dark Clouds.

Yesterdays heavy black clouds tha,
enveloped the city in darkness and
covered it like pail before the flood
gates of heaven were opened and the
rain descended in binding sheets,call-
ed to mind the storm of one year ago
today.
On June %, 1915, one of the most
remarkable hail storms visited this
city and the surrounding county, and
yesterdays clouds portended hail of a
similar unique size, but only the usual
small size hail fell.
The picture accompanying this is an
amateur photograph of pile of hail
stones on the lawn of 16 Revell st. The
photograph was made by Mrs. +. s.
Bullard' wife of Mr.. Bullard, of the
Experimental Station force and was
taken on the afternoon of the greatest
hail storm, June %, 1915.
The storm followed very warm
morning and broke about $50 O'Clock
in the afternoon, the hail falling from
dark leaden cloud, and canonading
the city and suburbs. Tin roofs were
torn, slate roofs broken, glass in hot
houses and windows all over the city
was broken. aud the buildings at the
Naval Academy, whose roofs are glass.
were damaged 20 the extent of many
hundreds i'f dollars.
The hailstones averaged from three
to four ounces, three of them weigh
ing pound. Measurements were ta-
ken and several at The Capital office
measured 8 12 inches in circumfer-
ence. Many of the hailstones were
spiked and pronsed cutting into the
roofs ana glass. smashing shutters
in their descent from the elements.
1t was a spectacular sight as the
hail fcil INTO Spa creek, shooting the
water upward like bombs dropped
from an aeroplane over the creek
might do. The picture gives an idea
of the size of the hail that fell here
on June %, 1915.
The sun was shining in less than an
hour after the hailstorm. Hail was
picked up in peach baskets and serdve
for ice in refrigerators.

Au Uufounded Rumor

There has been widespread rumor
throughout the city this afternoon that
the summer practice cruise of midship-
men had ben ordered back to the Naval
Academy because of the Mexican trou-
BILE, and that the Naval Academy would
be closed, all officers now there to be
ordered for duty at Mexico.
There is positively no official author
ity for this rumor at the Naval Acad-
emy, where it was denied absolutely at
the Superintendent's office late this
afternoon.
1t is a well-known fact that it will
take AM Act of Congress to send the
States militiamen to Mexico. while, on
the other hand, the army and navy are
available at any time when complica-
tions arise, such as the present Mexi-
can affair.
