GRAND JURY MAKES
. REAL RECORD TODAY.
County Inquest Meets And
Losses No Time Indicting
CONNER For Murder.
TRIAL SET FOR THE 18TH.
Negro Is Arraigned Immediately
After Indictment Is Brought
In Against Him.

A real record was established by
the Anne Arundel County grand jury
when that body went into special ses-
sion today to consider the case of
William CONNER, alias Freeman. ac-
cused of the mufder of Arthi ellis at
Curtis May on May 4th. But little
over an hour was consumed by the
jury in hearing the several witnesses
called by the State After taking the
testimony of these witnesses the jury
at once brought in an indictment
against the negro.
Judge Moss had the accused at once
brought from the county Jail and ar
raigned. CONNER. or Freeman, as he
is also known. entered a plea of not
guilty. and the case was set for trial
on Tuesday, one week from tomor-
row. June 18th. Judge Moss issued
instructions TO have the members OF
the petit jury recalled for that date
and il is not thought likely that the
trial of the case will occupy more
than one day,
The accused man shot and killed
ellis during a row at Curtis Bay &C
cording to the contention of the State.
After the shooting he skipped and was
later located in Pennsylvania and
brought back to Maryland for trial.

ANNE ARUNDEL BULL
RAISES SOME ROW.
Animal From This County Gre
ates Excitement On Light
Street Wharf, Baltimore.

An Anne Arundel County bull taken
aboard the colchester steamer Emma
Giles on Friday created no little eX-
element in Baltimore that night after
the trip from a wharf on one of the
rivers of this county. He finally got
away from his pursuers and was not
captured until he had made his way to
the ncighborhood of Union Station.
Arriving in Baltimore on the boat
the bun was placed in the pen on the
wharf He decided to go over the top.
With the greatest ease he jumped over
the side of the pen and charged across
the wharf.
Deck Mate Woolford, of the steamer,
who was close by, saw the charge, at
once called two deck hands TO assist,
and the three gave chase. Not stop
ping for automobiles, cars, wagons or
pedestrians, the bull continued up
Light street, circled around the streets
of the downtown district, and finally
went north along Charles street until
he reached Union Station. Woolford
and his men made many efforts to cap
ture the animal, but every time he
reached for the end of the rope at
tached to the bulls horns the animal
made a lunge in the opposite direction
and evaded his pursuers. The real
struggle came when the animal ar
rived at the station. From his actions
it was his intention to board a train
for an Atlantic port to embark for
France to do real service in charging
the German firing line. 1t was at this
point that Woolford succeeded in get
ting the end of the rope and he and
the bull had lively time for few
seconds.

night"

TOMORROW is
ST. BARNABAS' DAY

One of the most active of the Dis
ciples of the Lord was Joses, surnam-
ed Barnabas, the Son of Consolation.
He is said to have been one of those,
who, having possessions sold them,
and laid down the price at the
Apostles feet. He is said to have la
bored for some time with St. Paul, but
after a time disputes arose, and they
separated, he pursuing his course
alone, choosing Cyprus for his field of
labors. He was stoned to death at
Salamis, and was buried with st
Matthew's Gospel on his breast. St
Barnabas Day, the old style calendar
was the longest day in the year, now
June 81
st. Barnabas is the Patron Saint OF
the Guild of Mercy, and on this day
the Guild usually attends the Celebra-
ton of Holy Communion at the early
service in a body.

that America is fighting for no selfish
end He referred to relations between
the United States and Mexico, attribu-
ting most of the misunderstanding
which have arisen to German propa-
ganda.

MISS HOLLINGER
MAKES CHANGES

Miss Edith Hollinger, the new Su-
perintendent and Head Nurse of the
Annapolis Emergency Hospital. has
made number of marked improve
ments under her regime of the past
ten days.
Miss Hollinger has had the hospital
Office moved from the rear room on
the first floor to the front room to the
right of the entrance, formerly occu-
pied by the doctors of the hospital
The doctors have taken the room for
merly used as the office.
Another improvement made by Miss
Hollinger is the exchange of the

No Uniforms For Farm Workers

The idea OF furnishing a uniform
for industrial workers, while it ap-
peals very greatly to sentiment, ap-
pears to be altogether impracticable,
Farm labor does not suggest a uni
form. For the most part farm labor
is done in shirt sleeves and overalls,
and such town people as may be in
duced to do farm labor will find it
more economical and more convenient
to use their old elothes.-Clarence
Ousley. Assistant Secretary of Agri-
culture.

Every Kansas Institution
Mobilization of the college stu
dents of Kansas for Christian world
democracy has begun Delegates
from Washburn college returning
from Emporia yesterday, and dele
gates from other institutions who
were passing through Topeka, told of
the state conference Saturday and
Sunday at the Kansas State Normal
school
Every college in the state, as well
as all the state schools, were repre-
scented by both faculty members and
students. By unanimous vote, the
conference went on record to offer in
each Institution Of higher learning in
the state courses on Christian world
democracy, for better understand
ing of the principles of civilization
and government by the people.
Nationwide Movement
The call to the college students of
Kansas is part of the general move
ment in North America to get this
generation of college and university
life to study the Christian basis of
the vitaliziEg forces in the advance
of progress.
The conference adopted this official
call:
We recognize as never before, be
cause of the present world crisis, the
imperative demand for broader inter
probation and application of Chris
tianity as it applies not only to indi-
vidual thought and conduct, but also
to the social and international pro-
blems that face the world. We be-
lieve that students, because of their
advantage of education, must lead,
both in this larger Interpretation and
application of Christianity. We be-
lieve that if these students are to
be prepared to do this unparalleled
task it is absolutely imperative that
they begin the work of interpreta-
ton and application during their col
| lege days. Because of this solemn
conviction, this conference Of all the
colleges and the universities of the
state here firmly resolves to challenge
/ 100 per cent. of the students of Kan
sas to a consideration of courses in
| Christian word democracy and the
! application of Christianity to our
community and national life

Mission Notes


Many people from Munior and
Catherine attended the mission lee
lures during the forepart of the
week.
The newly decorated church GER
tainly looks fine when all lighted I'D
and all now appreciates the zeal of
the Rev. Father Dominic in bringing
about this great and much needed
Improvement.
The lectures on the sixth Com
nandment Wednesday forenoon and
the lecture on Death Wednesday
evening, were two of the best ever
heard by the writer and made a pro
found impression on all hearers.
It is seldom that men have the
command of two languages to such ?
state of perfection that it is impossi-
81 to tell of what nationality they are
The two fathers were classed first rs
Frishncen when they spoke in Eng
1ish and then as German when they
conducted their lectures in that lang
mage. We do not know what they
are for they are equally at home in
English and German.
Prof. Meier. conductor of the choir
became suddenly i'll during the ser
vice last Tuesday evening. We are
glad to say that he is back again
and rendering good service.-X-
