ACTON'S CARE TAKER
i'UNCLE WILLIAM" DEAD

William Pindell, colored known to
everybody as "Uncle William who
for % years has lived in the little
cabin at Acton" the Murray estate,
Murray Hill, died last night aged 76
years. He is survived by four chill
dren who live in Annapolis. two sons
and two daughters, and one daughter
in Washington and one son in New
Jersey The latter had been with his
father the last week of his life.
The funeral will take place tomor-
row afternoon at one o'clock from
Asbury NJ E. Church, West street, and
will be attended by Miss Charlotte
Murray whose home place the old man
had cared for more than quarter of
a century. Uncle William" had never
been sick in his life until some months
ago, when he was a patient at the
Emergency Hospital. He recoyered
and was apparently well until about
Christmas time. when he took cold and
had been ailing up to the time OF his
death. He served the family of the
late Pay Director James d. Murray,
L. S. ", who lived at "Acton," the old
colored man occupying the cabin on
the estate when Acton was the only
house at the now thickly settled Muir
ray Hill. The Murrays placed every
confidence in the old colored man, and
entrusted him to care for the estate
during an absence Of three years He
never betrayed his trust, and won the
confidence of all who knew him. The
old man was well thought of by all
who knew him, especially the children
at Murray Hill. who knew him only as
Uncle William" and were fond OF
hirl because OF his many courtes!es IL

ST. JOHNS CADETS
At RIFLE PRACTICE
Have Been Doing Good Work
At Targets At Saunders Range
For Past Few Days
ARE ENJOYING LIFE, TOO

Saunders Range. the State-owned
target ground midway between Anna
polls and Baltimore, at present has
much of the same appearance that it
had during the war, and travellers
over the Annapolis Short Line again
hear the constant fire of rifles that
distinguished the station while the
war was on.
The reason for this activity is the
encampment of st. Johns College
cadets. who went there on Thursday
to begin a week of practice on the
targets. All of the student body is on
the range. and Workmanship courses
have been started, the first of them
having been fired on the day of the
cadets arrival at the encampment
At 10 o'clock Thursday the battalion
reached the place, and they were as
signed to barracks Immediately. Head
quarters were established in one of
the officers bungalows erected during
the war. and all of the business OF the
organization is directed in the regular
military fashion. The companies are
distributed by platoons among the
barracks buildings, and the quarters
have been comfortably arranged with
the exception, it might be added, of the
comfortable item-heat.
On this question the students de-

HAT SALE ON At THE "Y'
Beautiful Creations In Millinery
Made BY Society Women
ARE BEING SOLD TODAY

Fifth Avenue and the Rue de Ia Paix
have dangerous rivals in Annapolis.
The Y W c. A hat sale which began
this morning at $50 will last through
the day and evening until every hat is
disposed Of
Judging from the charm Of the hats
viewed this morning ii seems likely
that the sale will last very short
time, indeed.
The materials used have been al
most entirely odds and ends and the
results are remarkable. Mrs. Thomas
Fell has worked over the old flowers
until they have blossomed anew. and
she has concocted one delightful toque
entirely of small pink flowers with q
large braid of white maline laid
around it and a tiny. very Partisan
black velvet bow at the side.
Mrs. Theodore Richards has shown
herself a milliner of infinite talent
Every hat that she has worked over
has that inimitable touch Of smart
ness" which costs so dearly in the
SIODS. nG Hats hhlNAA wa ,. NNO+ = Z

ate buyers. and Mrs Thomas john
sons two little girl bonnets" will not
survive the opening half-hour OF the
sale Mrs Samuel Brooke has brought
into attractive shape, color and form
old hats which seemed beyond repair.
and Miss Jeanette Sterling and Miss
Anna Bennett are still working on
things which promise to be real
prizes.
The show piece of the sale IS blae
foliage turban. scarcely worn and still
in its Fifth Avenue box. which was
given when the owner went into
mourning. Aside from this one hat,
the prices win be very low, three hats
being five dollars and the others from
that down to one dollar.
This is a rare opportunity for An
napolitans to help the Y. w. c. A. and
to help themselves to a spring hat at
practically no cost.

SEAMANSHIP BUILDING
TO MEMORABLE NAME
OF LATE ADM. LUCE

Building construction work that has
been under way at the Naval Academy
has brought about change i'll the
name of the seamanship and gymua-
stun structure. in line with the policy
Of naming the several structures and
roadways after men VINO performed
conspicuous service in the Navy. In
other words, the name of Lace Hall
at the southeast end Of the resefva-
ton. which contains the seamanship
department and gymnasium will, in
the future, be known as 'MeDonough
Hall" and the new seamanship build
ing now nearing completion. viii take
the name Of Luce Hall." This build
ing also will contain the department
of navigation.
The name of Luce Hall was frsl
given to memorialize the late Admiral
Luce who was regarded as the Navy's
most noted authority on seamanship
ana his book on that professional sub
ject has long been part of the cur
riculum in training the midshipmen.
The fact that the present structure
erected more than a dozen years ago,
was named after him was due to its
containing the department Of seaman
ship.
Captain Thomas McDonough whose
name is to be perpetuated by the re
naming Of Luce Hall, commanded the
naval forces at the battle of Lake
ChamDlain.
