OLD BACK CREEK
ROAD STILL IS
PUBLIC HIGHWAY
County Commissioners So Hold,
Following Opinion Of Their
Counsel
FOR OLD QUARTER. ROAD

At the meeting Tuesday Of the
County Commissioners, the two mat
ters of especial interest that were be-
fore the Board were those relating to
the road at Eastport forming the ap-
proach to Back creek bridge. and to
the "Old Quarter Road" in the upper
end of the county.
/ The question as to the legal status
of the road at Back creek was raised
at the Board meeting OF two weeks
ago when, following a petition and
protest of a number of citizens of
Eastport against an individuals put
ting a fence across the former. road
leading to the bridge. the Board refer
red the question to its Counselor,
Ridgely p. Melvin, with a request for
his legal opinion. Mr.. Melvin submit
! ted his opinion to the Board in writ
/ ing yesterday, and it was ordered filed
and published The substance of it
| is that the road forming the approach
| to the old bridge was. undoubtedly a
| pull lie road during the time the bridge
was IN use and for years thereafter
and that it must, under the law, re-
tain its status as public road until
/ it is closed in the precise way called
/ for by the Code of Public General
Laws of Maryland. This has never
been done and therefore the erection
of fence ty anybody across this road
or obstructing it in any way, is held
to he a transgression. The opinion
points out that the remedy for this is
by indictment of any wrongdoers, or by
injunction. The opinion also refers to
the fact that the Back creek bridge
was constructed under Act of 1885,
and to the case of Bembe against the
County Commissioners in 1901 in
which the Court dealt directly with
this bridge and the road leading to it..
County Helps Roads Commission
This, and a number of other mat
| ters came up before the County Off
cials in course Of their meeting.
Further progress was made in connec-
tion with the construction of the Old
Quarter Road in the Third and
Fourth Districts. in accordance with
resolution offered by Commissioner
Disney and which was adopted. This
road is to be built under -State-aid
provisions, and the contract for it was
let at a previous meeting of the Board.
1t develops, however, that the State
Roads Commission is without suffici-
ent funds at this time to cover the
| States share of the cost, and it was
suggested that the work might be
pushed ahead under State supervision,
If the County could carry the States
share of the costs until such time as
the necessary funds therefor are
available. Acquiescence in this propo-
sition was the effect of the Disney
resolution.

NAVAL SCHOOL S
ROLL Of STUDENTS
FOR TERM zoos
Academy Formally Re Opened
Today Under Pre-War Condi-
tons Of Four Year Course
ROUTINE is UNDER WAY

Returning to pre-war conditions.
that is the re-establishment of the
four-year course of study. the official
re-opening of the Naval Academy for
the regular academic term took place
at s O'Clock this morning when the
routine of class recltations, etc. got
under way This is the seventy-fourth
academic year of the institution.
The Academy DegIns the term with
a total of 2,OS6 stLIents on the ros-
ter They are apportioned among the
four classes as follows: First, 304;
Second, 300; Third. 773; Fourth, 709.
This is "a fewer than were carried on
The rolls at the beginning OF the last
term. That the total this year did
not establish a numerical record, how
ever, was due to two reasons, first.
that only two-thirds of the 2,100 can
didates designated for appointment to
this years Fourth Class presented
themselves for the entrance examina-
tions, and of this 1,400, about fifty
per cent, were found quail ley as
shown by the roll Of 709 i'll the new
class; and secondly, a large number
of students of the Third and Fourth
resign by reason of failures in the
last annual examinations conducted in
June of this year. The total roster
Of the four classes last year was 2120.
The several figures noted are based
upon information announced from the
administration Offices of the Naval
Academy this morning
AS shown by the above figures, the
Third Class has the largest compile
ment of students. This, however, is
not the largest class ever at the Acad-
emy, for a few years ago the Fourth,
or entering class, had a roll of over
900
An idea OF the scholastic and pro-
fessional work accomplished at the
Academy during the last two years
the period that every branch of the
military service of the country was
more than worked double time on
account of the war-may be gained
from the fact that four classes were
graduated from the academy within
two years. This, of course, caused
curtailment of the work all down the
line. In other words, the regular
four-year course, was crowded into
three years.
. When the Midshipmen marched in
to the several class rooms, they
found many new faces among the
corps OF instructors, as there have
been changes by the wholesale dur
ing the summer months, particularly
among the tutors taken from the COM
missioned personnel of the service.
All of the civilian instructors, who
are assigned principally to the de-
partments of Modern Languages. and
English were appointed for another
year.

interest of the Emergency Hospital

tee interested in the drive, desire to
have it distinctly understood that every
contributor to the amount of $500 per
year is entitled to vote at the annual
election at the hospital of its managers
and officials, and at once becomes a

Hospital Association, an organization
composed of people in whose hands the
manner of conducting the institution
rests.

many volunteers, and these, besides
those regularly appointed are hard at
work to make the hospital drive the
success it deserves to be,
The colored people are being called
upon the same as the white and are
asked to do their utmost in the drive.

American Officials Fear Villa Will

FL Paso Fight.

Washington, June 20.-COincidental-
ly with the declaration by the Mex
lean government that the incident of
the invasion of Mexico by American
troops at Juarez to protect American
citizens is closed, the state depart
ment announced that "strong represen-
tations have been made by American
officials in Mexico to the Mexican gov
eminent for the protection OF Amerl-
cans in the disturbed area"
There is general apprehension that
Villa will lose no time in retaliating
upon Americans, as he did in the Co
lumbuS massacre.
Secretary Baker said, however, that
there is no intention of dispatchlng
more troops to the border unless the
situation should become more serious.

OPPOSES Department OF AIR
Secretary Daniels Thinks Plan I3
"Most UnWise"-Wants Naval
Aviators Separate.

Washington, June 2O.-Appearlng
before the senate naval committee to
urge an increase in the appropriation
for naval aviation from $15,OOO,OOO
fixed by the house. to $350OO,00O Sec
rotary Daniels vigorously opposed pro-
posals that the air services of the
army, navy and postoffice department
be consolidated under a cabinet Of
ficer. l consider this plan most I'M
wise," said the secretary. NAVAL avi-
alton should be as much part of the
navy department as the bureau OF
naval ordnance. Aircraft are needed
as much by the fleet as are destroyers
or submarines. The service in one
department would be immeasurably
weakened" Mr.. Daniels said from his
observation while overseas recently,
Great Britain had found a joint air
service unsatisfactory. Some changes
already have been made in the adj
ministration of the service, he said, to
give the navy a larger voice.

Nature Did.

New York.-After Kelrous Polius
drew back the gauze curtains that
yelled his broken jaw his bride of sew
enteen forgot all her love for him, and
straightway made for court. She
charged her husband with disorderly
conduct.
But the judge on hearing the facts
in the case told the bride her husband
was not to blame for the face nature
had given him, and lectured her on
counting in the dark
For Mrs. Polius met her hubby in a
moving picture house during an ex-
citing eight-reel love affair. Mr.. Polius
had just been hit by an actor and
came in to forget his broken jaw.
1t was not until days after the mar
riage that Mrs. Polius saw her hus-
bands face in full and what she saw
well, that's where this story started.
