an established French theater, where
the best actresses and the best PLAYS
combine to teach Americans the best

New York on a visit, to find how rap
idly the introduction Of French has pro-
crossed in the commercial and artistic
life, With the establishment OF a
French theatcr, with the success that II
had last winter, with the introduction OF
wonderful French clothes worn in the

OFFICIAL CANVASS OF
VOTE MUCH DELAYED.
Unusual Conditions Attend Work Of
TabulaliOn by Board Of Election
SunerYisnrs.

The work in connection with can
vassing the official vote cast in Tues
days election in Anne Arundel Coun-
ty, presents a condition unprecedented
in the history of the county
Under the law, the Board of Super
yisors of Elections OF the several
counties are required to meet between
y o'clock noon and l P. NJ. on the
Thursday following election day, to
canvass the vote, and the job is gen.
orally completed in a few hours. Full
filling this requirement, the Super
visors met yesterday at their Office in
the Court House. and completed the
tabulation of the figures, after three
hours of tedious work. but in the alb
sence Of a clerk in one of the Offices
of the Court building, whose services
are generally secured to sum up the
vote with an adding machine, the
Board adjourned until o'clock this
AT that hour. DR.. William
II. Rullman, Chairman of the Board,
was on hand. DR.. Charles B. Hen
kel, the Republican member of the
Board did not put in his appearance,
and it developed in the meantime that
Mr.. William n. Crisp, the other Demo-
cratic member, was detained at his
home in Brooklyn by reason of ill
ness. So the final touch to the can
vass of the vote could not be COM
pleted without all of the members
present. Furthermore, it is reported
that DR.. Henkel, the minority member
Of the Board, has openly asserted that
he will not sign the returns because
Of some alleged irregularity in the
ballot and other reasons.
The Board, it is expected, will be
able to get together tomorrow and
complete the canvass.

FOUR PERSONS ON TRIAL
FOR HOLDUP AND ROBBERY
Two Men We're Victims Of Trip in an
Automobile Bus From Brooklyn.

A quartette of persons-two young
men and two young women-were
placed on trial before Judge Forsythe
and a jury in the Circuit Court here
this morning charged with the bold
hold-up and robbery Of passengers on
a jitney bus operated between Brook
lyn and Curtis Bay, in the Fifth Dis
trict. on July II last. 1t is alleged
that the parties boarded the bus, paid
a fare OF 81 to be conveyed to their
home at Curtis Bay, but instead the
driver of the truck drove the machine
into q clump of woods, and with other
accompliees there assaulted two or
three of the passengers, and robbed
them of more than 800. One man
alone was relieved of his pocketbood
which contained s110.
The principals in the affray are
Herman Eny, driver of the bus; Edgar
Wells, Nora Griffith and Myrtle Wind
sor. It is alleged that the money said
to have been stolen from the pas
sengers was divided among the four
accused. The defense, it is said,
claims that the pocketbook was found
by one of the accused. A Theodore
Brady is counsel for the four prison
ers. The case probably will drag
through the day owing to the fact that
some of the witnesses are unable to
speak English intelligently, and the
services of an interpreter was there
fore necessary.

Two football games of importance.
as far as the local teams are con-
cerned, will be staged tomorrow. The
st. Johns College Cadets will meet
their old rival, the Maryland State
College. while the Naval Academy
eleven will hook up with the team of
Georgetown University of Washing

The ST. Maryland State
game will be staged at College Park.

from all indications. the fur will fly

practically been eliminated from the
running for the State intercollegiate
championship for the year Jy reason
OF their defeat at the hands of West
ern Maryland College. but they will
so into tomorrows game with all OF
the fight and pluck that has charac-
terized ST Johns teams of former
years. And in spite of the fact that
they will be pitted against a team
much heavier than themselves. and
that several of their players are in
crippled condition, the Cadets are
imbued with much confidence that
they will be able to trail the colors
of the Aggies AZ any rate they will
80 into the game with all kinds of
determination. and prepared to give
the Aggies the best they have in them
Although the ST. Johns team is built
largely OF new men, yet much speed
has been developed in the offensive
the line is quite strong, and the team
has shown some flashes of brilliant
work in previous games of the sea
son.
From all reports the Middies will
be up against something of the real
thing when they face the Georgetown
lads tomorrow. Tho Hilltoppers have
been playing a strong game since the
start of the season, and are counted
upon 10 give the Sailor lads quite a
rub The Middies are in fine shape
for the fray, and if the viewpoint of
close observer can be taken for
anything, they ought to be about
three touchdowns better than the
Washingtonians
est than ordinarily would be the case
The Navy has lost TO the only real
eleven West Virginia. II has played
and it is difficult to see wherein IL
should have such a walkover against
Georgetown as many persons seem
70 think. A lot of people around
Washington are asking how big the
score is going to be, and they are like
~ to be mistaken in their viewpoint
Navy has a splendid backfield. The
Middies will be facing a far different
line Saturday from anything II has
gone against so far this season. II
will be a better coached line than
West Virginia had, and certainly
West Virginia did not have two such
running halfbacks as Gilroy and Nc
Quade which opinion is given with
full knowledge of the fine qualities OF
Rodgers and Harris Incidentally,
Navy's ends are not any too good;
anyway they do not measure up to
the standard of a high-class eleven.
