HIGH SCHOOL PLAY
A SUCCESS
Presented Last Thursday Night
to a Packed House.

The presentation of the play cat the
End of the Rainbow" by the Senior
Glass of the Oakland High School, at
the Maryland Theatre on Thanksgiving
evening, was a grand success, both
financially and artistically. A crowded
house greeted the youthful Thesplans,
and the big audience present voiced
their appreciation of the dramatic eff
forts of the cast by frequent and pro-
fuse applause. The entertainment was
given for the benefit of the High School
library, and quite a substantial sum
was realized, which will be utilized in
buying a set of reference books very
much needed by the school. The pro.
duction of the play was in charge of
Prof. A. D. Appleton and Miss Myrtle
Breyfogle, of the High School faculty,
and its rendition throughout bore evil
dence Of their careful training and
painstaking instruction.
The scenes of the plav were centereC
around college town, and the hazing
FRANKS of the students, together with
the actions of a pair of newly-weds, and
the plot to obtain possession of some
valuable papers, were all entertaining
and amusing. Charles Garrett, as
Preston the lawyer, not only acted the
part well, but looked it. Donald Sincell
as Douglas Brown, the college football
hero and much plotted against heir to
millions, couldn't be improved upon.
Dick and Nellie Preston the overly
soft, but quarrelsome newly-weds,
taken by Robert Porter and Beulah
Ralston, were very amusing, as were
the butler and maid. in the persons of
julius Littman and Lillian Helbig.
Louise Ross, who plotted to get the
papers, and throw suspicion on an in
nOcent party, Marion Drayton, in love
with the lawyer, were excellently done
by Winifred Weimer and Cecilia Hart,
respectively. Jane, a maid, was as
signed to Helena Marquis, who exhibit
ed quite talent for a character part,
and had the butler and others guessing
all the time. Carol Miller, as the mis-

parts well, and the performance as a
whole reflected great credit, not only
on the performers themselves, but upon
the school and those in charge of the
entertainment.

cCIRCUIT COURT
PROCEEDINGS
Grand Jury Grinding Out Indict-
ments While Civil Cases are Few.

The December Term of the Circuit
Court with Judge Henderson on the
bench convened Monday morning at
nine O'Clock. Mr.. c. ]. Otto, of Dis
trict No. 8, is foreman of the grand
jury. In his charge to the jury Judge
Henderson cited those sections Of the
law governing certain infracuons and
impressed the jurors to be as expedite
Gus as possible in their work, but at
the same time to be as thorough as
possible.
The civil docket was taken up on
Monday morning and judgments enter
ed in uncontesyed cases. Many suits
marked for trial by the attorneys when
they went over the docket a week or
two ago were settled out of Court and
the result is very few cases have thus
far been heard, and none of them of an
important nature. The petit jury has
not been called to serve upon any case
thus far. This morning, however, the
jury trial of the case of Mills VS..
Stanton will be taken up. This is an
action for damages resulting from a
collision between the automobiles Of
the parties which occurred on the Natl
ongl Road at point near Cumberland.

THE DEATH RECORD.

MRS. SUSAN B. HAULENBEEK.
Mrs. Susan B., wife of MIR. George
w. Haulenbeek, of Baltimore, died at
the city residence on Wednesday last
after prolonged illness of hardening
of the arteries. Mrs. Haulenbeek went
to Baltimore from her summer home,
Uplands Farm, near Deer Park. just
a few weeks ago, her condition at that
time being considered critical by her
physician and members of the family
Her death is sincerely regretted by a
large circle of friends both in Garrett
county and in Baltimore City. A Deer
Park correspondent writes concerning
her funeral:
"All of the friends of the late Susan
B. Haulenbeek assembled at the Deer
Park village station last Friday on ar
rival OF train No. 80 from Baltimore.
The tram conveyed the remains of the
departed, and it was sight to fill the
hearts of the funeral party with graft

Lashorn, Mr.. James W. Walter, Mr..
Edward Thrasher, Mr.. Bud Savedge,
Mr.. William D. HOVE, Mr.. Oscar J.
Harvey, Mr.. Jones, Baptist clergy
man from Loeb Lynn. Mr.. Peter Gar
rett, Mr.. P. J. Garrett, Mr.. Robert
Garrett and Mr.. Henry Deal were pres
ent and rendered most efficient service
Mr.. John Williams automobile was
also rendered the funeral party, and the
family of the deceased feel that they
can never repay the myriad of friends
who offered their services.
The tolling of the church bell as the
funeral procession with measured tread
followed to the cemetery, was most i'm
pressive. 1t was in this very church
that Mrs. Haulenbeek had attended and
it was only when her health positively
failed. that she would consent to be re-
corded as an absentee.
Years ago when Mrs. Haulenbeek
was blessed with moderately good
health, it was her custom to pay week
ly visits to Bay View Asylum in Balti-
more, distributing tracts and reading
the Bible to the poor and distressed in
that institution. She was also in the
habit of holding Mothers meetings for
poor women in Baltimore, but of these
things she would make no mention to
her friends, believeing she was only
performing a duty.
Mr.. and Mrs. Elmer Haulenbeek,
Mrs. Paul A. Trageser and Mr.. L. H.
Fleming with Mr.. G. W. Haulenbeek
composed the funeral party.

ing 263f tons. was owned by a Naples
ship company and sailed from Leghorn,
Italy, only few hours before the new

1t Is no secret that practically all
Italian steamers. under orders from

Americans were aboard.

Heaby Jajisky. pastor OF Polish
Catholic church was hearing confes-
sions tonight, Mrs. Agnes Dudsko, pre-
tending to be worshiper. got close in
the confessional and shot the priest to
death.
Several nuns, two boys and young
man were in the church. Their story,
interpreted by Polish members of the
church. is that the woman entered the
church. knelt in a pew and appeared
to make the usual preparations for
confession. One Of the boys had just
completed confession, when she
stepped up in her turn.
Just after kneeling before Father
Jajisky. the parishioners say the wo-
man whipped out revolver and shot
five times. The priest died within a
few minutes.
The confessional at which the shoot
ing occurred was an open affair, con-
sisting only of kneeling bench in the
front of the church and not a booth
where confessions are usually made.
The woman came from Minneapolis,
police say Parishioners Of the dead
priest claim she has never worshiped
at his church and that she is a
stranger.
Police tonight said an anarchistic
death.

by the parishioners in the church and
held until the police arrived Then
she was placed under arrest and taken
to central police station.

Mrs. Dudsko was tonight identified
as the claimant in three suits against
the priest, alleging Father JajisSy as
the father of her baby, born in 1913.
The jury disagreed in two of these
suits and acquitted the priest in the
third.
Immediately after the shooting the
woman walked calmly to the altar and
was kneeling there when parishioners
came to get her. She turned. saying
she had killed the priest and told that
the gun laying near him was the
weapon she used.
THE woman in each suit sought civil
damages and money for the support of
the child. All these suits were in 1918.
The priests defense was that he was
the victim of frame-up growing out
Of the factional fight at Holy Cross
Minneapolis. Following these
suits the priest was transferred to st.
Paul.
