7 Drowned in Three Feet of Water-Mr.
vanstown florist, was drowned in tank in
one of his greenhouses on Friday evening of
last week. The tank was but three feet deep,
. and it is thought that he was seized with an
epileptic spell while dipping bucket of water
7 from it. Mr.. McRoberts bad taken promi-
nent part in the Fourth of July celebration at
Govanstown that day leading the childrens
chorus. He returned to his home late in the
afternoon, and, after eating supper, went to
greenhouse. His absence from the house was
unnoticed for about two hours when Mrs.
McRoberts, becoming alarmed, went in search
: of him. She found him lying dead, face
downward, in the water. Justice Keller deci-
ded an inquest unnecessary.
Mr.. McRoberts was As years old and native
of Baltimore. He had been in business on
portion of Rosebank, the estate of the late
William D. breckenridge. He married Mrs.
bald Breckenridge who, with three children,
survives him.
J. Mr.. McRoberts was at one time gardener at
Hampton, near Towson. He was member
of Baltimore County Grange, the Gardeners
Club, was trustee and deacon in the Presby-
terrain Church at Govanstown, assistant super.
intendent of the Sunday school and leader of
the church choir.
I The funeral took place at Queenstown Pres
byterian Church on Monday afternoon, and
was largely attended. The services were con-
Quoted by the pastor, Rev. w. w. Shaw. The
William s. Norris, II. B. L. Everding, Robert
Halliday Clarence Foreman, A. T. Black,
Chester B. Turnbull George Henicke, Daw-
son Cardwell, John Watson, William Watson
and Robert Watson. The three last mentioned
are nephews of the deceased. There were
many beautiful floral tributes.
Cornerstone for Handsome Church.
The cornerstone of Roland Park Presby-
terrain Church. Roland avenue and Upland
road, was laid at o'clock on Friday after
noon, 18th inst, by the pastor, Rev. ]. W..
Douglas, assisted by several other ministers.
The new church will be handsome build
ing of Falls road granite. The seating ca
pacity of the main auditorium is 300, and in
addition there lisa Sunday school room, a large
3 basement and pastors study. The building,
including the lot, will cost $4,000.
The first exercises of the congregation were
held October 2. 1900, at the Woman's Club
room, Roland Park. Soon after the services
of the present pastor were secured and the
first preaching service was held on the first
Sunday of November, 1900. The attendance
was 90. The financial and administrative
work of the new church was in charge of a
committee consisting of w. G. Coggins, John
I. Hill, j. o. Johnson, Frank Fellows, Angus
Cameron and Theodore Swift. May 1, 1901,
the church was organized, and May 18th a
He was ordained and installed May 30th.
The original members numbered 40, of whom
80 were admitted by certificate and one by
confession.
Rev. J.W. Douglas, the pastor of the con-
gregation, is native of Columbia, s. G. He
graduated at Princeton Theological Seminary
where he afterward pursued postgraduate
studies, and the Roland Park Church is his
first charge. He is an energetic young man
and the congregation seems likely, under his
charge, to expand rapidly.
The building committee is composed of John
T. Hill, chairman, Moses B. Sayre, Theodore
Swift, Angus Cameron, John Palmer and
Edgar Dix.
Rather Earring to Prospective City
Teachers.-Unlessa an applicant has gradua-
ted from one of the high schools and has taken,
in addition, the Normal School course or else
has taught successfully number of years else
where, he or she may have no hope of obtain
ing position as teacher in any of Baltimore's
public schools.
Such at least is the opinion of superinten-
dent of Public Instruction Van Sickle, who
has declared that neither the graduates of the
Normal School (alone) or of the Woman's
College, or of any similar institution, for that
matter, regardless of its standing, are qualified
to teach in the city's schools.
1t is hopeless, therefore, for those who have
not pursued this prescribed course to take the
teachers examination, an ordeal generally
supposed to show an applicants fitness
There have been quite number who have
sought these much coveted positions as educa-
tors of the youthful mind, whose applications
have been rejected, regardless of their superior
qualifications, so it seemed to them. The only
course left open for us, they say, is to go back
several years and take the city high school
course.
\ Hearing Exceptions to Sale of Real
/ Estate.-Judge Fowler was engaged several
days this week in listening to testimony and
arguments in the matter of the exceptions to
the sale of the real estate in the trust matter of
! Charles E. R. Goodwin, made by the trustees
Messrs. o. l. Yellott and r. H. Bussey The
exceptions were filed by John o. P. McShane,
an infant. by William NJ. and Emelne P. Nc
Shane, his parents, and alleged as reasons
why the sale should stand that the property
was sold for grossly inadequate price that
the trustees sold it at time of the year when
lit could not be sold to advantage; that it was
linsufficiently advertised, and for other reasons.
Judge Fowler held the case sub curia. The
property in question was purchased by Mr.. s.
Davies Warield, of Baltimore.
New Tennis Club Formed.-The Winston
Tennis Club has been organized at Govans-
town, with the following members: Lewis l..
