HISTORICAL PAGEANT.

At the historical pageant TO be
given for the Red Cross on St Johns
campus Wednesday. May %, at p. NJ.
a great variety of entertainment will
be offered.
Two most interesting scenes will
be those depicting Colonial and Revo-
lutionary episodes. These will be
picturesque in themselves. but the
stirring character of the events they
deal with the beauty of the costumes
and the historical fidelity with which
they will be represented, will add
greatly to their effectiveness.
The minuet will be danced in all
its stateliness and the dignity Of Colo
nial manners, as well as the resolu-
tion and spirit of Colonial character
will be suggested by the typical Incl
dents that have been selected to de-
pict them. A great deal will also be
gained by the beautiful setting un-
der the historic Liberty Tree"

races will be held One of these races
will be for the Governor Goldsborough
Cup, as Harry W. Meredith, owner of
the Spe, has issued a challenge to
Commodore Alfred l. dupont, owner of
the Amoret, who now holds the

Church. Last Sad Rites Over
Remains of Countian.

Body To Last Resting Place
In Rock Greek Cemetery
This Morning.

Funeral services over the remains OF
! John Floyd Waggaman, aged &c years
| whose death occurred on Friday at has
| late country estate, "Wild Rose
Lodge South River, this county, were
held this morning in St Anne
Church and were attended by lrage
number of friends of the deceased
| including many distinguished people
form Washington, Baltimore and An
napolis. Among those who came over
for the obsequies were United States
Sentor John Walter Smith, former
! Governor of Maryland, for many years
a personal friend of the deceased. U.
District Attorney Samuel X. Denins,
was also here for the last sad rites.
The services were conducted by the
Rev Edward ID. Johnson, Rector OF
st. Anne's. The choir of St Cecilia's
Guild sang the funeral hymns, Lead
Kindly Light" abide With Me" and
| Rock of Ages" The pallbearers were
Mesrs. Frederick Smith, d. lie Ahar-
bon, j. Orville Eckes, William G. Wag-
gaman, Albert n. Howard, John Nc
Kee Waggaman and Leonard Nichol-
son, Jr.
The casket was covered with pail
of exquisite white flowers and maiden
hair fern, and the numerous floral de-
signs were of rare beauty.
A special car over the w, B. & A.
Electric Line, met the funeral cortege
at the churchyard and conveyed the
remains to Washington for burial in
Rock Creek Cemetery in the family
burying ground of the Waggamans.
The Rector of st. Anne's accompanied
the remains and will hold the COM
initial services at the grave Besides
the family, a number of personal
friends composed the funeral party to
Washington.
The death of Mr. Waggaman at this
time was peculiarly sad, his two only
children not being able to attend their
fathers obsequies. Capt Ennalls Wag-
gaman, a son is with the American
troops in France, and another son,
Lieut.. Floyd T. Waggaman, of the Ord
nance Corps, is with his troop and
could not be given leave at this time.
Mr. Waggaman was a native of Fair
fax, county, Va. He spent many years
in Washington where he was engaged
in the real estate business. Some
twenty wears ago he came to this
county purchasing the beautiful coun-
try estate at South River, which is ia
nous as ducking shore, and here he
and Mrs. Waggaman have entertained
lavishly and extensively, having as
their guests from time to time the
most distinguished people of Maryland
and other states as well as of the Dis
trict of Columbia. wild Rose Lodge"
was the one place in Anne Arundel
where the latch string hung on the
outside, and its hospitality is proven
bial. The genial disposition of its late
host, his kind thoughtfulness of others,
the hospitality which he dispensed
with a lavish hand, made his home
the ideal place for entertainment
which his friends enjoyed all the more
because of its genuineness. He is
mourned by many who will cherish
his memory for long years to come,
and his noble deeds will be an ever
lasting monument.

Boosted through the donation of the
members of the congregation of Mt.
Moriah A. NJ. f. Church on Franklin
street, with an offering of $27.04 col
lected at the services yesterday, and
with several smaller individual sub
scriptions, The Capital Fund for the
purchase of additional ground for the
Annapolis Emergency Hospital went
to $2,S2104 today. The total contri-
buttons for the day amounted to $3904.
The offering of the members of Mt.
Moriah Church, of which the Rev. j.
A. Briscoe is pastor, was particularly
gratifying and showed clearly the ap-
probation of the members of the con-
gregation for the benefits the hos
pital is constantly bestowing.
The offering for the hospital was
taken yesterday at the church, the
congregation not being unmindful of
the necessity of helping a needed local
charity while endedvoring to raise
the fund for liquidating the debt on
its church, which amounts to $2.SSS.S4,
which is a balance of twenty years
debt. The church wants 1000 per-
sons to give $500 each by July II.
People of the city will be asked to
give dime toward the fund for pay
ing off the debt
With the effort of trying to raise
money for its own debt, the Mt. Moriah
Church contributed the sum to help
the hospital.
The other contributors for the day
were Mrs. Roselle b. Miller and Mrs.
e. c. Burt, $500 each; and Messrs.
William S. Wilson and George S. L.
Wilson, $100 each.
