ENGLAND PRAISES
PRESIDENT WILSON
Omitted Press Day Service)

London, March 6.-English news
papers today chorused praise of Pres
ident Wilson's canal tolls message.
The Birmingham Post said
"England will think vastly more of
President Wilson and his country aft
er this frank, honest and generous
admission of the justice of the Brit
ish protest against the exemption of
American shipping from canal tolls.
The message was especially opportune
at this time, when all evil-disposed
persons are trying to embroil the
two countries on account" of the Ben
ton case"
On the strength of the message
most papers strongly urge participa-
tion in the San Francisco exposition.
The London Evening Star says:
"President Wilson's canal tolls mes
sage is one of the noblest acts of
craftsmanship in the history of ma
tions."
The Westminster Gazette said: "Tt
is a great example. If the people of
the United States respond to it as
we feel they will, they will have done
much more than adjust the difference
between them and us in regard to
the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. They will
have set a precedent of profound inn
portance to the whole world"
The Pail Mall Gazette said:
"While the acceptance of the invita-
ton to participate in the Panama Pa
cifc exposition at San Francisco could
be incompatible in magnitude with
the high minded act of President Will
SOM, the British government has the
power in its hands to give token of
reciprocal good will"
Even the bitterly anti-American
Globe spoke in terms of warmest ad-
miraton of the presidents attitude.

favorably Representative Sims reso-
luton repeating the American ship
ping exemption from Panama canal
tolls. Committeeman Doremus,

Adamson will press the resolutions

with Underwood, Democratic floor
leader, who is opposed to it, when it
shall come up. The indications are

and the Yellow Daisy" sung by Miss
Ruth Mitchell of Calexico, accompa-
MED by Miss Winifred Perry on the
piano, was one of special interest, en-
hanced by the youthfulness of the
performers, the young ladies having
just entered their "teens." Miss
Mitchell's voice is one of remarkable
sweetness and her enunciation is
good.
Miss Cairns of the High School
faculty sang "The Deserter," Mac
DowelPs music set to words by Rob-
ert Burns, and a lullaby, both words
and music by MacDowell. Miss
Cairns voice showed to remarkable
advantage in the sweet grooming of
the "Slumber Song"
The violin numbers by Mrs. Cler-
bois, accompanied at the piano by Mr..
Clerbois, were plaintively sweet and
full of melody, the imaginative per-
ception of the composer being per-
fectly conveyed in the artistic hand
ling of the two instruments by these
masters of music" of whom Ell Centre
is SO proud.
Miss Inez Collier sang "The Sea"
and "The Maiden Spring" In the
latter song was exemplified the full
buoyancy of youth and springtime,
the very ecstacy of hope. These
moods were splendidly interpreted by
Miss Golfers rich voice, which holds
much of promise for the future.
Miss Velma Kirkpatrick gave a
careful and delightful Interpretation
of another of MacDowell's moods in
her delightfully."- sweet rendition OF
"Thy Beaming Eyes" and "The Rob-
in Sings in the Apple Tree"
In the group of piano numbers,
"The Soubrette," "The Scotch Poem"
and ''The Water Lily" rendered by
Miss Winifred Perry, were given OPP
portunity for full play of all the emo
tions experienced by human kind, from
the feelings of the care-free, coquet-
tish young girl to the plaintive cry
of disappointed hopes so often expert
enced in the latter years of life:
Miss Winifred caught the mood of
the composer in every instance, her
Interpretation being nothing short OF
wonderful. She played entirely with
out notes, which reflected credit on
her instructor, Professor Todd. The
development of this talented young
musician VIII De WdtCHeu WIFI inuSH
interest.
Mr.. Clerbois gave couple of pi-
ano numbers that were greatly en-
joyed. The first, named 1920" was
descriptive of the ships starting out
from England which brought to US
our American forefathers, the Pill
grims.
1t was majestic composition, rem
dered by genuine artist Of the pi-
ano, impressing the hearers with the
great Importance of this historical
and important undertaking. "The
Eagle" inspired by Tennyson's poem,
was none the less delightful as in
terpreted by Mr.. Clerbois.
A rising vote of thanks was given
Mrs. Perry and her able assistants
and at the close of the meeting each
of those who had contributed to the
pleasure of those present was sur
rounded by admiring friends giving
vent to the happiness enjoyed, leav-
ing no possible chance 20 doubt that
the splendid effort of those contrib
uting to the success Of the program
was fully appreciated.

Returning Home.
Omitted Press Day Service)


New York, March 6.-The Lusi-
tania, bringing the globe-circling Gil
ants and White Sox baseball players,
docked this morning. Thousands well
coined them. Major league officials
boarded the liner in the harbor and
began efforts to sign up the stars
before the Federal Leaguers could
make propositions. Federal League
President Gilmore sent a wireless
message, telling the players the Fed
eral magnates would be at the Knick-
erbocker hotel, ready to talk busi-
ness.
Representatives of organized base
ball were at the pier also. They were
the first to greet Speaker, Doolan,
Crawford, Wingo and others for
whom the Federals are angling. Own
er Lannin of the Boston Americans
later said:
81 have Speakers word he will not
sign with the Federals. That's enough
for me- / am confident all return
ing players will remain in organized
ball."
Asked his intentions, Crawford of
the Detroit Tigers said: Money
talks with me. Get me?"
Scores of sirens shrieked a well
come to the returning tourists and
many small craft escorted the liner
to its berth.
Manager McGraw appeared first at
the liners rail. The American flag
was lowered over the sides. Owner
Comiskey of the Sox declared he is
completely recovered from the illness
contracted abroad Both clubs ap-
peared in good condition.

CRIMINAL DOCKET
EASILY FINISHED

Five criminal cases were on the cal
endar for trial Monday and when the
attorneys and court waded through
them this morning it was found that
none of them would be ready for trial.
On account of this, the court ordered
that those summoned on the jury be
notified that their services would not
be demanded on that date.
In the case of Thomas Doyle,
charged with robbery of roommate
in Imperial, District Attorney Phil D.
Swing announced that he was reli-
ably Informed that Doyle had discard
ed all of his bad habits and had been
working since the last trial and every
indication pointed to better career
for the young man. Doyle was tried
twice on the charge and both times
the Jury failed to reach an agree
ment. The evidence was purely cir
cumstantial and it is not believed that
he will ever be brought to trial again.
The case was continued until May II,
the district attorney stating that he
was offering the two months as new
system of probation.
The district attorney announced that
the case of the People VS.. Goldstein
would have to be dismissed unless he
secured additional evidence and unless
he received this within the next two
DAYS he could not proceed. Godstein
is alleged to have fleeced some ranch
ers out of hides.
People VS.. Sheridan resulted in a
conference between Attorney Conk-
ling and the district attorney, the
end of which was that the defendant
was made to enter a plea on a lesser
charge and thus eliminated this case.
