Miss Alice Harper Collinson. who
had been i'll at the home of her broth
er. DR.. John Collinson. OF West River.

after a lingering and painful illness
and was due TO cancer.
The deceased had undergone a
delicate operation some months ago

She bore her suffering with patience
and Christian fortitude, and died the
death of the righteous.
Miss Collinson, who had lived in
Annapolis the past several years, was
an active member of the First Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, and teacher
in the Sunday School. her class of
young girls being devotedly attached
to her.
Funeral arrangements have not
been completed. but the burial will
probably be in the family burying

which carries one 10 that shrine OF
artistic America. Washington Square.
Here one does not meet she pseudo
artist, but the arrived" man who
makes plenty of money out of his
work.
The hero is an artist who one even
ing steps out the front door of one
Of the fine old homes which still line
the North side of the Square, to find
poor Italian girl resting on the
steps.
He learns she has no place TO go,
turns her over TO the cares of a kind
landlady. and later uses her as the
model for a picture he is painting.
Trouble comes when she learns that
he has a wife, from whom he is sep
arated.
The wife suddenly appears during
the artists absence and turns the
Italian girl into the street. Too
proud TO seek out the man who thus
deceived her she lives under hard
ships until Fate opens the way TO a

DANIELS SAYS "STEAM
ROLLER" WAS USED

WASHINGTON, ID. C., May &c. -
Declaring that "a steam roller" was
being used on him, Secretary Daniels
told the Senate Naval Investigating
Committee today that he would ap-
peal to the fall committee, If Chair
man Hale insisted in putting into the
records IAN unfair. and unfavorable
statement" as to condition Of the war
ships OF the American Navy when
The war began.
Before the Secretary's announce
ment Senator Pittman. Democrat,
Nevada, warned Chairman Hale that
he would protest on the Senate floor
against the character of the ques-
tions which the Chairman was asking
MIR. Daniels.
Questioning of the Secretary cen
tered largely around his statement ~
the conclusion OF the war that in
April, 1917, the Navy was ready from
stem to stern"
THAT statement formed an cpl
gram" said Mr. Daniels. 1T sums up
the whole story OF the Nays part

TO REPEAT PLAY
IN THE COUNTY

Members OF the cast in THE Minis
ter's Wife's New Bonnet" which was
given with such success on two coca
sions in the lecture room OF the First
Methodist Episcopal Church, and by
request at Edwards Chapel. Parole
have been asked TO give this musical
farce on the evening of June at
Davidsonville hall
II Is also expected 10 give 1t on June
IL at Millersville hall, and at both
places In the county the audiences are
assured a highly pleasing entertain
ment.
The cast is far above the average,
as the musical farce itself. All parts
are admirably taken and each par
ticipant enters thoroughly into the
spirit OF the play One would have to
travel far and long to see a better
music master of the old-fashioned
tpye of village choir leader. than Prof
Olivet. or more fitting Miss Jessie
Hardahear. admirably interpreted by
Mrs. Glow, whose makeup is fault
less. and the great wonder of II
all is that such a stylish. up-to-date
woman as Mrs Glow can so metamor-
phose herself into the deaf lady of the
village church.
Mrs Lee Kalmey's impersOnation of
Miss Cayenne Pepper. the woman who
suffers, is also a character that
stands out in the farce. and is admir-
ably acted.
The county residents of Davidson
willie and Millersville have a treat in
store for them when the Woman's
Foreign Missionary Society of the
First Methodist Episcopal Church pre-
sents this musical farce for their en-
tainment.

j. S. AND BRITAIN
TO PULL TOGETHER"
SHIRLEY BENIN SAYS
Correspondent Associated Press.l


LEEDS. ENG, May Sir Arthur
Shirley Benn, who was head Of the
British mission to the international
Trade Conference at Atlantic City
last fall. has just told the members
OF the Luncheon Club that he believ-
ed the United States and Great Brit
ain would continue TO pull together"
III so, he said, he thought they and
their Allies would be able 10 recon-
stitute Europe and get back to for
mer conditions OF trade.
a great many people had said
there was no chance Of Great Britain
and the United States pulling togeth-
er. because they were too much alike
too impetuous and aggressive. lie
did not believe il. He had known
America since 1877 and had never
known a better feeling TO exist be-
tween England and America than ex-
lists today among the people who
counted.
They were in America, he said
pro-Germans. Sim Feiners, and 9th
ers-"wlld men who were trying to
uproot the whole American Consti-
tuition" There were people who
we're working. with pro-Germans and
Sim Feiners. to do all they could
against England. Dut they would not
succeed, he said. The class OF peo-
pie in America who were descended
from Anglo-Saxon stock were not go
ing TO give up the government OF the
country to any mixed cosmopolitan
body OF people like the Bolshevists
and their class who were making the
trouble in America today"
The bulk OF the people OF the
United States. he declared. had the
most absolute faith in the honesty,
courage and determination OF John
Bull. Great Britain, he said owed
America big debt, but the Allies
owed this country n larger one.
