ENTERTAIN DANIELS

Annapolis, or rather the Naval
Academy, which has become a part of
the city since the administration of
Rear Admiral Eberle, is to have as its
guest for the weekend Secretary of
the Navy Josephus Daniels. The Sec
retary will come over from Washing
ton tomorrow to be the guest of Su-
perintendent and Mrs Eberle, and
there will be nothing official in con-
nection with the visit. The Secretary
and his wife are coming here chiefly
to see their son, Worth Bagley DAN
iels. who was admitted to the Acad-
emy as a Midshipman few days ago.
Soon after the United States got into
the war young Daniels enlisted in the
navy. Subsequently he was designat-
ed for appointment as a Midshipman
by Senator 0verman, of North Caro-
lima. and was found qualified in all
prescribed examinations. And now

To Serve Out Sentence At 0ccoquan.
Asked BY Government Not
To Appear

Mrs. John Winters Brannan, Mrs.
Henry Butterworth, and Miss Cora
Weeks, the White House pickets who
were due to return to OccoQuan on
July to complete sentences suspend
ed last fall on account of their weak
ness from the ill-treatment received,
were asked by the government not to
appear
The decision rendered in the ap-
pealed case OF Mrs. Harvey Wiley,
which declared her innocence and
stated that she has been illegally ar
rested, applied likewise to these three
pickets.
The message of corporation counsel
Stevens to Matthew O'Brien, counsel
for the suffragists, stating that the
government did not desire the New
York suffragists to appear to complete
their terms, completes the establish
ment of the legality of picketing and
closes the picket cases except for the
damage suits entered against the Dis
trict Commissioners, which are due to
come up in the fall court term.
Every picket case has now been
finally decided" said Mr. O'Brien,
and every decision has maintained
the innocence of the pickets. for
which l have always contended"

mounted the steps and while the black
cap was being adjusted over his head.
Even this did not stop his singing.
With b. S. Holt, Georgia Boston

voices TO him in leading the hymn, he
chanted on to the very second when
the sheriff, in the discharge of his dis
agreeable duty, sprung the trigger
After the hanging was over Sheriff
Bells, who had left the negro to the
care Of Holt and the members of the
condemned mans race as much as pos

had done much to revive and sustain
the murderer in his last hours.
1t was minutes past 5 when
Sheriff Bells, after escorting the ne
gro to the platform and assisting there
in the last details of the execution,
returned to the foot of the steps and
received a signal from sChief Deputy
Grafton Boone, who, with Deputy w.
ID. X. Lee, remained on the scaffold.

most horrible crimes ever committed

the most remarkable criminal who
ever paid the death penalty in Mary
land. With all the cowardliness of his
dastardly crime, there was also bold
determination to withstand all the
warnings of an unrependent death, and

With two other condemned negroes
in Jail awaiting final action on their
appeals for clemency, Sheriff Bells
announced his intention not to take
down the gallows on which Isaacs this
morning paid the penalty. The struc-
ture will be painted to protect it from
the weather, and allowed to remain in
case it should be needed again during
Mr.. Bells term. The sheriff also es-
tablished a precedent in saving the
county needless expense through al

old clothing rather than purchasing a

In addition he used and afterwards

NAL TB|E SOUNDS A
NOTE OF WARNING
No Certificates For Sugar After

Announcement
5000 ARE HEARD FROM

Assistant Food Administrator Malt
bic serves notice on grocers, boarding
house keepers. and others. who re-
quire sugar in wholesale lots, that,
unless certificates are obtained by
July Is, they will not get any more
sugar until the close of the war He
estimates the number that must OBJ
stain these permits at about $4,000 and
fully 5000 have not yet ayailed them
selves of the opportunity to make APP
plication. 1t would be well for these
to comply with the order which is
mandatory, if they would not be de-
prived of sugar for months, if not
years to come. Their applications
must be addressed to the Maryland
Food Administration. Room 146. Equi-
table Building. Baltimore.
All grocers who dispense sugar in
small quantities supply the demand
in accordance with the order which
limits the sale to three pounds per
month per capital. So as to get their
full quota each week, while others
buy ii by the pound as they need it, as
it is sold the buyer is charged on the
blank with the amount. As there is no
time limit fixed on these forms, the
seller must keep track of the guam
tity needed, but as customers need
the sugar from day to day, there is
probably not family that has not sub
scribed. There is therefore no reason
why the grocer or any other large
dealer and user should not be in posi-
tion to estimate his needs.

THE WAR CAMP
COMMUNITY SERVICE
Work And Methods At Recreation
Rooms Being Re0rganized Under
Federal Government

The War and Navy Departments of
the United States Government have
recently taken over in small towns
certain war activities that have hith-
erto been conducted by the citizens
committees.
While these, or other similar COM
mites will continue to serve it will
he through the Federal authorities
and under their jurisdiction. The, work
locally, will be actually under the SUI
pervision of the Commission on Train
ing Camp Activities, in the War Camp
Community Service, under which lat
ter title the work is now being con-
Quoted
Different branches will do different
lines of work There will be a Lib
rary for the service men, sort of "re-
volying' affair. the books TO be re-
ceived at short intervals, probably
every two or three weeks, or every
month, and after being read here, to
be passed along to some other War
Camp Community Service centre
The work is Community Organic
ing" The workers will go into each
community, form a central organiza-
ton in that community which will act
as a Clearing House." for all other
war activities.
The idea is two-fold: First, to pro-
vide facilities for recreation, enter
tainment and social enjoyment for
men in uniform after the duties of
camp life. and outside camp routine,
and second, to prevent overlapping oss
the various war work activities of
clubs, societies, etc.
While the local organization is only
being effected, and is in embryo stage,
the work is silently going on under
the keen eye and capable guidance of
Mr.. William r. Moody, representing
the War Camp Community Service.
Mr. Moody is a Baltimorean by
birth, but has been away from that
city for some years, engaged in work
for the Government along social ser
vice and other lines He has had wide
experience in camps and cantonments,
recently having come from the camp
at Chillicothe, Ohio, where wonderful
war service work was organized and
developed.
Mr.. Moody expects to remain in
Annapolis for some time, and is MAX
ing many friends. He has a pleasing
personality, a personal magnetism,
that is great asset for the work he
is undertaking among the service
men and in organizing the community
for this work.

Drastic Measures For The Second
Infantrymen Who Do Not
Show Up At Timonium
CAMP TRAINING NEEDED

That full attendance of the 500
members of the Second Infantry.
Maryland State Guard. will be assured
at the encampment TO open at Timon-
ium next Monday. Gen. Clinton L.
Riggs, commander of the State Guard,
said yesterday that not only will dras-
tic measures lie taken with any men
who fail TO report but Adjutant Gen
eral Henry NJ. Warfield has requested
him to report the names of all firms
refusing to allow or making il difficult
for the men to report for duty. The
names of such firms will be pub
lished.
Excuses for not attending the camp
will not be accepted, and If any man
fails TO report at the camp an armed
guard will be sent to his Office or home
to take him to the camp. Such dras-
tic measures to insure a full attend
ance are permissible under the mill
tia law, and men not voluntarily re-
porting will be fined 1t is an obliga-
tion on the part of every employer to
make, the sacrifices necessary so that
their employees enlisted in the regi-
ment will receive the necessary field
training
The Second Infantry has been or
ganized and equipped at an expense OF
over 100000 by the State of Mary
land, and although the training i'm the
Fifth Regiment Armory has been regu-
lar and the attendance good, yet there
is an urgent need that the men be
trained in the open. For this reason
Governor Harrington has ordered the
encampment for a period of 10 days, at
"a large additional expense to the
State, and, General Riggs said, it is
just as much a duty for the men to
respond to this order of the Governor
as for men to answer the draft calls.
The schedule for the 10 days calls
for strenuous and intensive training.
The companies will assemble next
Monday morning at the Fifth Regi-
ment Armory, Baltimore, and march
to Timonium Fair Grounds, where din
ner will be served and the camp es-
tablfshed The daily program calls
for a regimental parade at i'm the
evening and a guard will be mounted
by different companies each day
Sentinels will be trained in their
duties
Tuesday and Wednesday will be de-
voted to squad and battalion drills,
and on Thursday morning a tactical
situation will be assumed by a bat
talon, reconnaissance made and at
tack delivered.
A sham battle will be held on Fri
day in which battalions as outposts
will be established facing each other,
and an attack will be made over
| fire-swept zone.
Inspection will be made on Satur-
day morning, and the afternoon will
be devoted to military field sports, i'm
Guiding running matches under arms,
scaling fences and boxing.
! The usual daily regimental parade
will be held on Sunday evening at Z
