The game was virtually pitchers

TWENTY GRADUATES
In HIGH SCHOOL CLASS 1915.
Only One Lone Boy and Nineteen
Girls.

1t is estimated that there will be
twenty gradutes in this years class of
the Anne Arundel High School,
OF this number nineteen are girls
and one lone boy will receive diploma
with the nineteen sweet girl gradu-
ates."
The commencement will be held on
Wednesday. June 16, and simplicity
will mark the exercises
1t is expected that each girl will
make her own graduating gown, and
that these dresses will be of the sim
plest style and material, without frills,
and furbelows. The idea is not alto
gether pleasing to some, it is under

GIANT STEAMSHIP
VICTIM OF TORPEDO
Lusitania Sunk and l,5OO Souls
Are Drowned.
HIT OFF THE IRISH COAST.
Many American Citizens Are Among
the Passengers Thought to Have
Been Drowned.

More than one thousand lives
American citizens among the number,
were lost yesterday, it is feared.
when thebig Cunard liner Lusitania
was torpedoed off Old Head Kinsale,
Ireland by German submarine.
The attack was made without warn
ing. The ship sank within thirty
five minutes. Out of a total of 2,104
persons aboard. passengers and crew
with 1S7 American citizens, between
$50 and 1000 are reported ashore at
Queenstown, Kinsale, Galley Head
and Clonakilty
A late bulletin received by the Gu
nard Company expressed the belief
however that no more than 500 or 500
were saved. Among the survivors, it
is reported are many wounded, who
have been taken to the Naval Hos
pital at Queenstown This indicates
that the explosion must have been
terrific. or that there was a second in
terror explosion.
The Lusitania was struck around
2.15 o'clock in the afternoon (Irish
time 9.15 a. m. New York time), Just
before rounding into the entrance of
st. Georges Channel. She was about
ten miles south by west off Old Head
of Kinsale at the time. apparently
proceeding at top speed
Tho laIn..v t.oo.,
Her wireless operator barely had
time OF send a distres message. The
marine observer at Old Head just
made out the big ship with a heavy
list when she disappeared. Twenty
lifeboats and RATS were left floating
on the water.
Last Saturday morning newspapers
throughout the eastern part of the
United States carried in both their
news and advertising columns
warning from the German Embassy
that travellers sailing in the war
zone on ships of Great Britain or her
allies do so at their own risk,
The cost of the advertisements was
estimated in Washington at S25, 900.
They We're accounted for as being an
unusual way of serving notice in
time that Germany had planned a
new and still more daring raid on
British commerce. No one in diplo-
matte circles doubted that liner
would be the next object of attack
The advertisements appeared on
the very morning of the sailing of the
Lusitania, and the parallel seemed
too striking for misunderstanding.
From the time the liner reached
the high seas concern as to the prog
ress she was making grew in inten-
sity. Each day that passed with no
word of danger to her was counted so
much gain.
Thursday evening, as the steamship
drew into the waters adjacent to the
British lies, concern turned to fore
boding. Rumors of submarine attack
| on the Lusitania became current that
night. Inquiries as to her where
abouts, her safety, gossip about her
even, were made of the Cunard Off
GERS, and officials of the line hid their
fears only in public.
Every possible basis of reinsurance
was sought, but yesterday morning
came with nothing but new causes
for uncertainty

the chauffeur practice running the ma

where to start and how fast to go and
where to stop. doing just what we had

he had his part perfect and all Miss

OF course O'MalIey might have
slipped. but we had trained the chauf-

would have stopped the machine be-
fore il hit them. Yes, the taNi's brakes
could have broken. but we had an en-

But l placed my reliance almost en-

Travellers entering and leaving IN

their hurry to watch a girl risk her
life seven times in front of a speed

The girl was Gladys Hulette. star OF
the Edison company. Besides being
pretty and talented she has whst is

Each time when the taxi was just

forward and dragged her from the

company and likewise endowed with
that quality called nerve" Standing
nearby was quiet man. apparently a
spectator. He was Eugene Rowland, a
director in the Edison company.
The only thing i'm the scene to indi-
