ALLEN ACADEMY CAMPUS NOTES.
BY RENICK SMITH.
The Y. M. c. A. Entertains.

The Y. NJ. c. A. entertained on Sat
urday evening, April 2, with delight
full reception. The academy dining
hall was the scene of this enjoyable
affair. For the occasion the large
dining room had been transformed
into a spring bower. The favorite wild
| flower, the Indian blanket, was used
profusely in the decorative scheme,
and on each table great mass of
these brilliant blossoms was placed.
Around the paneled walls banners and
college pennants hung. This gave
college air to the scene. A sufficient
number of chatting dishes was placed
on the different tables and at each
table an official cook" was appointed
to superintendent the fudge" making.
Each chosen cook was presented with
fancy apron as a souvenir. After
the candy making was over an i'm
promptu program took place. Miss
Florine Bate sang two pretty solos,
with her sister Miss Annie Belle, at
the piano. Miss Pearl Kern favored
the company with two humorous read
ings, which brought much applause.
Miss Sarah Williams rendered several
classical selections on the piano, and
the ragtime duo, composed of Edgar
Derden and Renick Smith, contributed
their part by playing the late popular
airs. Later in the evening an ice
course was served, largely due to the
efforts of Miss Sara Allen, with the
help of Royal Miller and others of the
Y. NJ. c. A. boys.
Miss Allen received the guests, as
sisted by Prof. and Mrs. r. o. Allen
and members of the social committee
of the Y. NJ. c. A.
The invited guests were the younger
society girls of Bryan, and each young
lady present voted the affair a decided
success.

Rev. John E. Green Speaks to Boys

Rev. John Z. Green of Houston
spoke to the academy boys during
chapel period on Monday morning.
Mr. Green is well known in this com
munity, and is a staunch admirer of
the academy, having had a son in the
school several years ago. His talk
was based on the necessity of young
mans putting character building first
in his life if he would succeed in the
highest sense of the word. His help

very much enjoyed.

UNCLE SANS 80. X" MAY
STOP SEIZURE OF SHIPS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.-Beief that an
amicable settlement of the diplomatic is
sue between Great Britain and the United
States regarding seizure of American
cargoes would be reached continued firm
here today.
The opinion was held i'm official quarters
that a mutual understanding might be
reached whereby legitimate cargoes could
be certified before their departure from
this country, and thereby made immune
from detention.
High officials of the Washington Gov
ernment were somewhat surprised that
the American note has been regarded as
'brusque" in some London quarters. They
said the British Cabinet which has it
under consideration, after a single read.
ing of the document must he convinced
that the United States had spoken in
the most friendly spirit, though none
the less earnestly and emphatically on
points on which II considers itself thor
oughly justified Under the laws of nations.
In all, II became known today, 80 Amer
lean ships and cargoes, their values total
ing millions, have been detained. The
American note points out specifically,
however, that reimbursement for previous
damages alone cannot cure the situation
as the activity of the British fleet has re-
strained many American exporters, whose
business has become stagnant for fear of
the numerous technicalities and risks in
volved in shipments.
With respect TO cotton shipments, the
case of one or two illegitimate cargoes
II Is recognized, has caused the British
Government to suspect all shipments.
Secretary Bryan said that he had no
present intention of inviting any other
country to line up with the United States
In the position 1t has taken, He said that
the note represented a generalization of
protests which have been made by this
Government concerning the various seiz-
ures made by Great Britain since the be-
ginning of the war
In event Great Britains answer Laws
stress upon the allegation referred 10
by President Wilson yesterday that a
great part OF the difficulty i'm handling OF
cargoes has arisen from the fact that
some American shippers have made false
manifests, it is believed. that legislation
will be urged 10 increase the fines and
punishment for making false manifests
Under the present Federal statutes a
shipper who makes a false manifest Is
amenable TO a tine of $500 only.
Senator Walsh announced that British
cruisers held up two American cargoes
of copper last Monday. The vessels de-
tanned are the Swedish steamship New
Sweden, carrying f30 tons OF American
copper, at Newcastle, and the Norwegian
steamship sorland, carrying 500 tons, at
Leith. The American Smelling and Re-
hninB Company reported the cases 10

GUBBTNS' DOMESTIC
TROUBLES BECOME
MORE ENTANGLED
Ex-Councilman Threatens to
Cause Arrest of Man Who
Claims to Be His Son.

Charges and countercharges, which will
probably be aired in the courts, are in
cluded in the domestic complications of
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Gubbins.
Mrs Mary Gubbns says she will make
her husband support her, and still asserts
the former Councilman and present pros
porous wool waste dealer is trying 10
brtbe her political agents to cease action.
William Gubbins, who says he is the
son of Joseph GubDins is equally positive
that the father will have to support her.
Joseph Gubbns said today that he will
swear out warrants for William Gubbns,
Mrs. Edward Kelley and. George Tomkin-
son with whom Mrs. Gubbns and her
son live.
"The whole thing is a Matchmaking
scheme on the part Of my first wife to
obtain S25.OOO" he said. 81 went to
London twice to look for her. She
knew that | was In London because

was living at Ipswich in a hotel called

he is quite right.
WOMAN CAUSED SCENE.
Mrs. Gubbins was just as bad She
came to my place and raised such
scene that my stenographer had TO run
from the office. She also said she would
kill me IL I did not give her money !
have witnesses to prove it.
Gubbins also asserted that George Tom.
kinson, of 1914 Narragansett avenue, with
whom Mrs. Grubbln No. | and the son
make their home was responsible for
much Of the trouble.
He reiterated his determination to get
divorce regardless OF anything his first
wife and her supporter might do.
Mrs Gubbins, after a conference with
her attorney announced she had every
proof in her possession to show that Cub
bins knew she was not dead She de-
clared she had In her possession letters
which he wrote 10 her and which she will
produce as evidence in combating his
suit for divorce, She further stated that a
sister of Gubbins lived within two blocks
OF her home In London.
Papers and clippings purporting to show
that families who had come to America
from foreign countries in an effort to
have themselves recognized as families
of men who had deserted them and had
been unsuccessful were sent Mrs. Gubbins
by the former Councilman from time TO
time, according to the statement of wife

CABBY DRIVES MAN THREE
HOURS; LOOKING FOR HOME
Ends by Taking Customer to Police
Station and Demands Fare.

A tive-dollar bill was all j. w. Howell
JOG South SSth street, could produce when
Herman KempOn, a taxi chauffeur. 12t
Manton street, demanded payment for n
three hours ride around West Philadel-
phia last night. Howell had $S.76 left
from a joy-provoking roll when he turned
out his pockets before Magistrate Harris
at the 32d street and Woodland avenue
station. The Magistrate ordered him to
pay s. and call it square with the chauf-
feur.
Howell rode in the Kempon cab for
nearly four hours, ordering it driven
from one apartment house TO another in
hope of finding the one he lived in He
had appealed to Kempon at 10Th and
Market streets before midnight, saying
he thought he lived at the Hamilton
Court Apartments. The cab went there
but Howell was mistaken. For the next
two hours the cab went from one house
to another without finding Howells home.
Finally Kempon got disgusted.
"Lool1 here" he shouted through the
window, 81 know where you live. I'll
take you home" Howell was willing
enough and the cab drove to the police
station, Not until he was inside a cell
did Howell realize he was not at home.
lie was discharged this morning.
