CHAPEL DISINTEGRATING.
Lemon Meringue Pie Decorations

If Ernest FlaRg would make visit

But-wbat's the use
The Chapel is disintegrating. That S
the long and short of IT.. The decora
tions on the dome are crumbing and
falling piece by piece. Especially has
this been true in the last few weeks Of
ice, snow, sleet, wind and a general
mixup Of the elements with Old Boress
bussing the JOB.
When the crustaceous decorations
of that wonderful piece of art on the
dome Of the Chapel at the Naval Acad-
snow and zee. and when the warmth ~
Old Sol, melts hem TO tears the
Icing" on the Chapel, not wishing 60
part company with the real thing
takes unto itself the inclination TO 60
with it, so the art drops piece 10y
piece.
After all, art is a delusion and a
snare. and that on the Chapel dome q
no exception.
BY the way. where are they going Co
put those a ditional 900 Midahipmen ia
the Chapel Il is packed 20 the doors
now. Perhaps the services will be
for middies only.

 AVENUE BRIDGE
 TO REMAIN OPEN
Engineer Has Plan for Cross River Traffic While New
 Structure is Built.

J. B. Strauss, consulting engineer for the construction of the new East Washington avenue bridge, is making plans by which he hopes to keep the old bridge open to foot traffic and light vehicular traffic during the con- struction of the new bridge. Instead of raising the old bridge in the air while the new one is being built un- derneath, he proposes to raise the bridge slightly and swing it on the south side of the present structure keeping 1t open there until the new bridge is completed. The first esti- mate for the cost of keeping the old bridge open while the new one is be- ing built was $60,00O. Engineer Strauss thinks that in the way he proposes the bridge can be kept open for much less A meeting of the East Washington avenue bridge commis- sion to consider the matter will be called as soon as his plan is com pTeted.

Night Court Rule
 In Trumbull While
 Having Season Lasts

Lawrence Mott. employed as an au. tomobile driver by the Huber Tee Cream Co. of this city. tried to race pass a Ford automobile at Beach's corner, Trumbull, last Saturday. sher- if Emil Berger followed in pursuit. Mott was on his way to deliver a quan- tity of ice cream cones to a customer and hearing the sheriffs automobile footing behind believed it to be a/sig- nal that some of the wares had been dropped. Mott stopped to pick up the lost articles when he was picked up by the sheriff.
 Because all the countryside is hay ing at this season of the year Justice Horace P. Nichols held night court in the TrumbulI town hall last night when Mott, accused of reckless driv- ing, was arraigned.
 The defense showed that if the prisoner was travelling at a rate of 25 miles or more the sheriff was also travelling at the same rate for dis tance of over a mile. Much legal ar- gument prevailed, the prisoner being defeNded by Attorney John H. casey. of Bridgeport. Justice Nichols finally discharged Mott upon agreement to pay costs.

 Thus did Captain Paul Koenig, commander of the German merchant submersible Deutschland, explain his presence in Baltimore today, when asked what delayed his sailing. What the circumstances and condittons' are, Captain Koenig would not even hint.

 Loaded with crude rubber ana nickel, and, it is believed, with a large consignment of gold, the Deutschland lies on her pier ready to start.
