MRS. DONALDSON WINS
SUCCESS IN PREMIERE
"Million-Dollar Bride" Scores
Triumph in Musical Comedy
in Wilmington.

Mrs. Evelyn Hunter Donaldson, former
wife of Keith Donaldson, has stepped
gracefully from the llmelght of domestic
differences into the more lucrative lime
light of the theatre, accomplishing the
transition. according to those who saw
her dance last night in a new musical
comedy at Wilmington. with considerable
savoir faire.
Persons who insist on being absolutely
correct might say that Mrs. Donaldson
reached the glow of the footlights by
virtue of the advertising she got as a
result of the difficulties at 2OOS Chestnut
street, the home OF her grandmother
which caused the million dollar bride"
TO spend a few hours in cell at Central
Station some time ago.
Be that as it may, Mrs. Donaldson APP
peared last night in what is described as
a daring dance" with the new comedy
at Wilmington. 1t was the premiere"
of the comedy, which Is entitled Little

she had visited the courtroom or Judge

Brown finally had decided that her little
seven-year-old daughter, Dorothy is to
remain under the care OF her grand
mother. Mrs. Elizabeth II. Donaldson.

Opponents of the Rev. George Chalmers

the announcement of Bishop Rhinelander
that he has declared the action of MIR.

and odd
These vestrymen are Charles A. Brown
and William T. Hamilton, two Of the
chief opponents Of the rector. with whom
he has had frequent Tits during the last
year. The Bishop has decided that the
men are members of the church, and their
friends say they are legal members Of
the vestry which this week adopted a
resolution asking the ecclesiastical au-
thorittes to remove Mr.. Richmond from
the reCtorshp.
Mr.. Richmond, however is in no wise
fearful of the ultimate result of his Of
forts to have the mems memberships an

mas received from Bishop Rhinelanter
advises that his action in dlsmissing the
men was declared null and void on tech
nical grounds. He has, therefore. writ

that he will explain his charges against
the men to the Bishop i'm future letter

That is the only reason Charles Cam
phor can give for his unusual action. lie
is somewhat ardent Negro, and ever
since he "struck the pike" at the evange-
listic meetings of the BLACK Billy Sun
day he's been talking religion day and
night
The only thing that troubled Camphor
was that there 'wusn't nuff peepil gittin'

to start evangelistic meetings on his own
account. And so Evangelist Camphor de-
clared he felt inspired TO go after the
moths sent out by the devil. He explained
his inspiration to Sarah Monahan, a sty-

soul-stirring hymns. and when the meet
ing was at white heat Camphor told those
assembled 1t was time to show their ap-
probation by hearty contribushlns" He
took pudding pan and circulated. The
Jingle of the coin as 1t struck the pan
sounded just as sweet as the hymn which
was sung by Miss Monahan. After Cam
phOr circulated through the audience he
went out TO address an overflow meet
ing and the congregation sang while 1t
waited for him to return.
The worshipers would have been sing

for Camphor. He was found at 10th and

The interest was increased greatly for
the reason that several had missed their

RESERVE BOARD DELAYS
Fight ON COMPTROLLER.
Proposal of Advisory Council to
Abolish Williams Office Not
Acted Upon Yet.

The chief topic OF interest in financial
circles here yesterday was the recon-
mendation made to the Federal Reserve
Board by its advisory council for the
abolition OF the Office OF Comptroller OF
the Currency. now held by John SHELTON
Williams The board announced late yes
terday afternoon that this and other pro-
posals made by the advisory council
''have not received consideration or &C.
ton OF any kind" It appeared that the
suggested amendment to the Federal
reserve act creates a problem over which
serious differences of opinion will arise
within the board.
Friends of Comptroller Williams let II
be known that they considered the move
an outgrowth of n personal attack upon
him and that they intended to oppose
the amendment In spirit. Banking au-
thorities who favor the change as
means OF promoting the efficient man
sgement of the new currency system de-
plore the fact that the personality OF
Comptroller Williams had to be In
volved.
It was predicted yesterday that Secre-
tary of the Treasury McAdoo will sup
port his friend, Comptroller Williams, In
IN effort to defeat the move to abolish
his Office. Mr.. McAdoo's loyalty to the
Comptroller already has been tested In
numerous attacks made upon him, and
there were indications that the present
move would be regarded by the Secretary
as aimed personally at Mr.. Williams
