AWARD
FOR PROPERTY DAMAGE

Except for the additional attention
given to the award of property dam
age to the farm place of r. F. Dull. in
the Third district. by reason of the re-
cent construction of roadway lead

ward, and the passage OF the usual
number of bids for current expenses,

Commissioners on Tuesday. was de-
void of business transactions.
In the matter of the Dull damage
question, the Commissioners had pre-
yiously made an award of 1895 in be-
half OF Mr. Dull, following an inves-
tigation of the matter made by COM
mission appointed by the Board. Since
this inquiry it developed that an addi-
tional strip of land had been rendered
useless. and the Board therefore de-
cided to increase the amount of dam
ages by SOS

GOV.-ELECT RITCHIE
MUST TAKE A REST

Governor-elect Ritchie, whose voice
has been in bad condition since the
campaign. has been advised by his
physician that he must rest it COM
pletely for a week or more by talking
as little as possible, stopping smoking
and staying out in fresh air. All of
the "cure" sounded like vacation to
Mr.. Ritchie except the prohibition of
smoking. He is an inveterate smoker
and laying off" for week or more
probably will cause him to wonder
whether the Governorship Is worth all
the denials it involves.

ST. JOHNS TO MEET
DREXEL INSTITUTE

After a week OF real hard football,
during which most OF the time was
snent on n muddy field, due to the con-
tinued rains Of several days. the Navy
pjgskin chasers are ready for the con-
test with the eleven OF Colby College.
of Maine, to be played on Farragut
Field tomorrow afternoon. Although
some OF the middle players are nurs-
Ing minor hurts, the squad as whole
is in better shape at this stage of the
season that it has been for number
of years
II IS likely that only a few of the
first team players will be seen in the
line at the start of hostilities of the
morrow. At least this was the atti-
tude of the coaches today However.
IL Is expected they will be rushed in
for a while, If for only few minutes.
Just to keep them in limbered up con-
dtion All of which means that the
Navy contingent Is not anticipating a
hard contest with the collegians from
Maine. Colby developed a great team
in 1915 and 1916, but so far this sea-
spn they have scarcely been playing a
game that would measure up to the
mediocre But in the event that Colby
would spring anything like surprise,
Coach "Gil' Dobie will be standing by
to muster the full strength of his
charges IL needs be.
Work among the players at St
Johns College has not lessened in
spirit even though they were put out
of the running for the State Inter-col-
legiate championship for the year as
result of their defeat at the hands of
Maryland State College last Saturday.
The Cadets will have another pilgrim
age from base, as has been the case
with most of their games this season.
They are booked to meet the team OF
Drexel Institute, OF Philadelphia.
While little or nothing is known here
as to the strength of the Quaker City
institution, the Cadets feel confident
they will return with Victory.
