Some people, say that their realty

There is absolutely not a word
Of truth in any such charge, nor is
there any basis for any such charge.
The taxes that were paid this year
were assessed by the town council

everyone knew that there never had
been any such amount of money to
spend on the bridge and roads COM

we took charge of the towns affairs
that there was considerable work to
do that should have been done years
before, Just as we found that the
sinking fund had been sunk and that
we had inherited current bills to the
amount of nearly $4,000 without any
thing to pay them with, and it may
be that it is costing more for labor
now than under the cOuncilmanic

the increase doesn't amount to $4,000

"CROSS TRIUMPHANT"
READING ON THURSDAY

Much interest centers in the read
ing of the Gross Triumphant to be
given on Thursday evening OF this
week at o'clock at st. Anne's Church
by its author, Mrs. Marietta Minneg-
erode Andrews.
The pageant which was dedicated to
the Right Rev. Alfred Harding. ID. d.,
Bishop OF Washington, and 10 the
Building Fund OF the National Cathe-
dral. was given in Washington recent
ly i'm the Cathedral Close with great
success. II was divided into groups
and pictures. each group being spon-
sorod by some representative person.
The first picture which depicted the
traditional visit of Joseph OF Ari-
mathea to the British Isles was un-
der the sponsorship of Lady Geddesr
the wife OF the British Ambassador.
The intcrludes between the four
groups show the influence Of poetry
music, art. and the drama upon the
religious thought of the world.

SEN. WATSON .ASSA|LS
FOREIGN AMBASSADORS

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 5.-The
British and Italian ambassadors and
an accredited representative of other
foreign nations were assailed today
in the Senate by Senator Watson, Re-
publican, Indiana, because Of speeches
and statements made by them relating
to American tariff.
Senator Watson asserted that Sir
Auckland Geddes, in his speech I'm
California fayoring the use of British
ships for carrying American COM
merce as one means of aiding trade
between the United States and Great
Britain, had "gone entirely outside
the bounds Of propriety."
The Indiana Senator, one OF the
Administration leaders in the Senates
declared there was much foreign pro-
paganda against the present tariff bill
and asserted that he denied the right
of any foreign representative to come
to this county and instruct US with
reference to the policy of our gov>
ernment."

SUSPECT IN WARD CASE
ATTEMPTS TO ESCAPE

PHILADELPHIA, PA, June g..
John Cienzo. held by the police here
as a possible suspect in connection
with the killing of Clarence Peters by
Walter s. Ward, millionaire bakers
son. made three attempts to leap from
a patrol wagon that conveyed him
from an uptown station to the central
station in City Hall. He was shack
led hand and foot and was safely
lodged in the central station.
While local police are inclined to
believe that Cienzo may not be con-
nected with the Ward case. they feel
sure he has been involved in some
thing serious. else he would talk and
not make desperate attempts to es-
cape.
