This is the announcement that
Spike" Webb. well known athletic
instructor, formerly of Baltimore,
who is the boxing mentor at the Ma
val Academy, and turned out crack
team there during the late season, is
matched for a six round go tonight
with Tommy" Muilan, former well
terweight champion of the Navy.
Mullan is travelling with the carnival
troupe and meeting all corners. He
anyone who is able to stay with him
for four rounds of one minute each.
Webb it will be recalled, was stroll
ing through the show grounds on
Wednesday night, and was urged by
his friends to step into the ring with
the Carnival fighter. Webb, with his
characteristic spunk, could not side
step the urging, and the result was
that he surprised Mullan by sending
him to the floor four times, mid the
plaudits of a great crowd of local
sport lovers who gathered in the tent.
Mullan claims he was not in the
shape at the time. He had a great
handicap over Webb. however.
through the fact that he is much the
heavier. So if the "mill' booked for
tonight is pulled off, it should prove
big treat. to the sporting element
about Annapolis.
In addition TO the boxing contest,
Peck" Jones, of Eastport, who made
such a sensational showing against
Kid" Hamilton, the Carnival grap-
pier, is booked for finish match to-
night, for best two falls. A $50 side
bet has been placed on the match.
Kid Brown, colored athletic cham
pion of the Tenth Cavalry, now liv-
ing in Annapolis. has also been
matched for bouts with both Mullan
and Hamilton.

Food Facts

When cake tins are worn thin, scat
ter little sand over the oven shelf
before putting the tin in and the cake
win not burn in the baking
When frying rissoles or fish cakes,
nut a teaspoonful of vinegar into the
frying fat. This prevents the cakes
from being too greasy when cooked.
Old potatoes frequently turn black
when boiled. If few drops of vine
gar are added to the water in which
they are cooked they will be quite a
good color.

Perfect Cup OF Tea

The perfect cup of tea-that is, one
which contains the maximum amount
of caffein and aroma with a minimum
amount of tannin-is brewed as fol-
lows: Bring freshly drawn water to a
boil; pour it on one even teaspoonful
of tea for each cup, in an earthern-
ware or china pot which has been pre-
yiously scalded, and let it remain
covered for not more than three min
utes; then decant or strain into an
other receptacle.
The spent leaves should not be used
again, because practically all the
stimulating and aromatic constituents
have been removed and that which is
left might be Injurious to health

ton. in the Eighth district. in Decem-
ber last A family quarrel, ii is under

contracts, but this report when
presented to the House was pro-
ductive Of nothing but four hours
of debate and no action whatso-
ever was recommended by the
committee or taken by the
House. None OF the investiga
tions has produced results or
brought about legislation, and it
long ago was charged by Demo
Gratis OF the House that the in
quiries were partisan investiga-
tions ordered Simply in the hope
Of making campaign materials.
Democrats have never denied
that there was some waste in the
war, because all wars are waste
full, and it is impossible to con-
duct successful wars without
hurried expenditures Of vast
sums Of money The Republican
investigators, however. have
been unable to unearth any scan
dial in connection with the con-
duct Of the war and such waste
as was shown may be found in
any Of the countries participating
in the World War.
Democratic leaders OF the
House assert that the inquiries
ordered by the Republican ma
jority have absolutely failed OF
their partisan purpose, that the
public is impatient becauseof the
'nagging" which has followed
the winning of the war. and that
the country considers its victory
cheap at the price and has CON
hdence in the men in executive
positions-men of both parties
who directed the conduct of the
war and saw its successful con
clusion.
Nevertheless, Democratic lead
ers believe the country should
know how much these House in
vestigations have cost and efforts
will be made to get together fig
lres showing the money wasted
BY the House.
That the expenses of the Re
publican probers will run large is
evident considering the months
spent i'll investigation and the
dispatch of smelling commit
tees" even across the ocean in
search Of scandal. Democrats
will endeavor to show in the
next campaign that the entire in
vestigating program was one OF
political origin, that it has added
to the burdens of taxation and
that the results have been neg
ligible.
The investigation fever"
reached such mark in the
House recently that proposal
was made to Investigate the in
vestigating committees. That
more will be heard of this era of
probes when the bills are paid is
not unlikely.

POLITICAL ECONOMY

!
and men OF the Army and Navy
is inadequate, and that this in
adequacy is seriously crippling
both branches of the service on
account Of wholesale with
drawals, are facts that have been
made indisputably plain. Yet
the Republican leaders in Con
press. who are directly charged
with the responsibility for rellev-
ing this situation are still seek
ing to avoid this responsibility
by insisting on their plea OF
Economy" The additional rev.
elations as to the reckless vast
ing Of public funds, however, in
the thinly-veiled attempt to gath
er campaign material through so
called investigating committees,
have so thoroughly discredited
Il this plea as to put on the defen-
sive those who have been most
active in advancing it.
A comprehensive survey of the
expenses and activities of the
various investigating committees
OF the House is planned by Dem
ocratic leaders of that body who
want to ascertain how much il
has cost to, put into operation
these political agencies which
have now become to be general
~ known as smelling commit
tees"
A dozen or more investigating
committees have been al work
and have gone into almost every
phase of the conduct OF the war
and the administration OF execu-
tive departments. These com
mittees were created by the Re
publican majority and were
charged with the task of finding
out whether there had been ex-
travagance or fraud in the war
Period
.fhe smelling committees"
have held sessions in Washing
ton week after week and have
also gone on several junkets, one
OF the committees going even to
France to probe into General
Pershing's handling of the Amer
lean Expeditionary Forces.
Other committees have gone into
all sections of the country. visit
ing army camps, inspecting mu-
nitions factories. inquiring into
spruce contracts and the avia-
tion corps and so on.
Expenses of these House
probers have been large. of
course, because their investiga-
tions have covered such a wide |
range of territory and continued |
for so many weeks. Such reports
as have been made TO the House
indicate the partisan nature of
the Investigations, the Republi-
cans finding something to crit
icize here and there and the
Democrats filing a minority re-
port
No specific instances of fraud |
were unearthed by the smelling
committees. There were init
nations of fraud in about a half
dozen out of thousands OF army |
