bott and the lot back of the church
owned by Mrs. Charles a. thinner
man. Plans and specifications are
matters OF the future, but the new
church is assured.
The present church is a very old
one. The rear building is one of the
oldest in Annapolis. and has been said
by writer's of historic Annapolis &c
have been the first theatre in America.
This. however. has been discredited,
as the old Adams Express office. the
present site of the Evening Capital
and Odd Fellows Hall, lays claim to
that honor.
The old Presbyterian Church has a
long and interesting history. In its
primitive days and original form it
stood back some fifteen or twenty feet
from the sidewalk and the main audi
torium was reached by a long and
steep flight of broad stairs. Beneath
the main floor was a basement where
was held the first public school in An
napolis. and here school was taught
for many years until the old Stockett
Mansion on Green street, the present
site OF the schools was purchased
more than a quarter of century ago
In later years, after the church
building was abandoned for schoo
purposes, the church was enlarged
and improved. the building being ex-
tended out to the sidewalk and a
steeple placed thereon. The old and
new building combined has never been
completely satisfactory, the addition
not giving the space required and
serving only as a church vesibule.
The Sunday school room in the
basement has been inadequate and un-
desirable for many years. The former
pastor. Rev. Maurice 5. White, con-
celved the idea of a new church, eX-
tending from the old site TO the cor
ner Of Duke of Gloucester and Con
duit streets. and he worked TO this
end and with this object in view, and
il was ultimately to conSummate this
plan that he asked for an eight

New York where he might be in touch
with matters pertaining TO the accom-

church.
Mr. White has never lost interest in
the plan. and even though he has
severed his relationship as pastor. he
presented the needs for 4 new church
with the committee before the General
Assembly and the Board of Church
Erection
His idea was TO have gray stone

SAW SERVICE WITH
FARRAGUT, CAME
FOR UNWILLING

When the memorial window to Ad-
miral David G. Farragut, was erected
in the Naval Academy yesterday, il
was quite fitting that there should be
present for the occasion three officers
Of the Navy. who in their boyhood
days had served under the noted sea-
fighter when he commanded the feet
OF which the old Hartford was the
flagship. and which ran the blockade
OF Mobile Bay.
These are Dr. Charles II. Shepherd
OF New York, who, as told in yester-
days Evening Capital. made a special
trip 10 Annapolis TO attend the cere-
monials. and Rear-Admiral John c
Watson, (retired). who made the pre-
sentation OF the memorial. and Rear
Admiral Colby NJ Chester. (retired)
who delieveTd the address introducing
Admiral Watson. The occasion was
made one for a warm reunion OF these
three officers.

Watson On Farragut

Admiral Watson in making the pre-

among other things. said that after
the battle of Mobile Bay Farragut
wrote a friend that at the critical mo-
ment he prayed 10 God for help and
that he seemed 10 feel the impulse OF
Divine guidance This incident has
heen used as a basis for the design in
the central opening OF the window
There is a colossal winged figure-the
messenger OF God -hoyering about
the ships.
The side openings at the base of the
window are treated with a decorative
display OF the Naval Academy insig
MIA. On the left is the seal which
while never officially prescribed, was
used on Naval Academy publications
until about 1900. On the right is the
seal which was officially adopted
about that date As the seals were
not colored, they have been executed
in blue and gold. the colors of the
Naval Academy since 1891.
BY agreement with the Naval Acad
emy board on memorials. the main in
scription appears as follows:
"In memory of David Glasgow Far
ragut, Admiral. United States Navy.
Presented by the graduates of the
United States Naval Academy"
The window was executed by the
Gorham Company. under the super
vision OF Thomas Calvert from designs
by Frederick Wilson.

today packed 120 pounds. He con-
ceded sixteen pounds in actual
weight to Cleopatra. John P. Grier
was in front all the way. He broke
slightly in advance of the filly from

to. the first turn the colt bore out
slightly, but intsead of stealing the
rail with Cleopatra, McAtee took
the outside course.

SYRACUSE IS TOO
STRONG FOR HOBART

Syracuse, ". Y. Sept. 25.-Syra-
Cuse University defeated Hobart
College in the opening game of the
season in the Archbold Stadium this
afternoon by the score of SIS to Z.
The big Orange machine had little
difficulty in holding the lighter
eleven and in the initial encounter
showed considerable power in line
plunging and aerial attack which
resembled the play of last years
championship team.
Syracuse started with six of the
regulars of 1919. They were Cant.
Robertson. Alexander. all-Ameri-
can guard; Thompson. Gulick.
HoOple and Abbott. The line-up
showed several shifts, however, the
most important being the change of
Robertson from center. where he
starred last year, to right end. and
Alexander from guard to Robert
sons position at the pivot berth.
The combination, although it can
not be finally judged on the Hobart
victory, played well together.
Abbott. Kellogg and Anderson
starred for Syracuse. They hit the
line hard and figured in many gains
by forward passes. This trio was
responsible for most of the score Of
syracuse. Loghry pulled down a
forward pass thrown by Gasper,
Hobart fullback. and raced down
the hcld for an eighty-five-yard run
