MONTEZ, LOLA, the stage name of Marie Dolores Eliza Rosanna Gilbert, an Irish adventuress; born in Limerick, Ireland, in 1818. Her father was an Ensign Gilbert, her mother of Spanish descent. Taken out to India, she lost her father, and, her mother having remarried, “Lola” was sent home in 1826 to Europe, and brought up at Montrose, in Paris, and at Bath. To escape the match,
arranged by her mother, with an old judge, she eloped with a Captain James, whom in July, 1837, she married, but the marriage ended in a separation. She appeared as a dancer in London and other European capitals. In 1846, at Munich, she captivated the eccentric King Louis I., who created her Countess of Landsfeld, and allowed her $25,000 a year. For more than a year she was all-powerful, her power directed in favor of Liberalism and against the Jesuits; but the revolution of 1848 sent her once more adrift. Again she married (this time a Lieutenant Heald), a marriage as unlucky as the first. She died, a penitent, in Astoria, L. I., on Jan. 17, 1861.
# Collier's New Encyclopedia (1921)/More, Sir Thomas

Edition of 1921; disclaimer.
​MORE, SIR THOMAS, an English statesman; born in London, England, Feb. 7, 1478. He was the only son of Sir John More, a judge of the Court of King's Bench. A portion of his youth was spent in the family of Cardinal Morton, Archbishop of Canterbury, and chancellor; and he was then sent to Oxford, and afterward entered at Lincoln's Inn. He had already formed an intimate and lasting friendship with Erasmus. About 1502 he became a member of Parliament, upholding the privileges of the House of Commons to treat all questions of supply as their own exclusive business. On the accession of Henry VIII, he was made under-sheriff of London. In 1514 he was envoy to the Low Countries, soon after a privy-councillor, and in 1521 was knighted. In 1523 he became speaker of the House of Commons, and in 1529 succeeded Wolsey in the chancellorship. When Henry began his attacks on the papal supremacy More supported the old system. Henry marked him out for vengeance as an opponent of his matrimonial views. He was requested to take the oath to maintain the lawfulness of the marriage with Anne Boleyn. His refusal led to his committal to the Tower and execution, July 6, 1535. His chief work is the "Utopia" (in Latin), a philosophical romance describing an ideal commonwealth.

Arriaga, Jean Chrysostome De. Born at Bilbao, in 1808 ; - self taught in music, for which he showed rare talent, until the age of thirteen, when he was sent to the Conservatoire at Paris, and studied the violin under M. Baillot, and counterpoint under M. F�tis. He had al-ready, with no knowledge of harmony, written a Spanish opera, in which there were charming and original ideas. His progress was astonishing : in less than three months he had a perfect knowledge of harmony, and by the end of two years he could laugh at any difficulty in counterpoint and fugue. He had two gifts rarely united ; viz., ready invention and a scientific turn. He wrote a fugue for eight voices, on the words of' the Credo, "Et vitam venturi," which Cherubini did not hesitate to pronounce a masterpiece. On the violin his progress was equally remarkable. He was tormented by the continual need of' composing. His first work was three quatuors for violin, &c., which appeared in Paris in 1824. These were original, elegant, and purely written. Then came an overture, a symphony, a mass, "Salve, Regina," several cantatas and romances, &c. Exhausted by intense labor, he died, lamented and esteemed, in 1826.

United States Supreme Court
353 U.S. 230
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania v. Board of Directors of City Trusts of City of Philadelphia
Argued: April 29, 1957. --- Decided: June 3, 1957
The motion to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction is granted. 28 U.S.C. § 1257(2), 28 U.S.C.A. § 1257(2). Treating the papers whereon the appeal was taken as a petition for writ of certiorari, 28 U.S.C. § 2103, 28 U.S.C.A. § 2103, the petition is granted. 28 U.S.C. § 1257(3), 28 U.S.C.A. § 1257(3). Stephen Girard, by a will probated in 1831, left a fund in trust for the erection, maintenance, and operation of a 'college.' The will provided that the college was to admit 'as many poor white male orphans, between the ages of six and ten years, as the said income shall be adequate to maintain.' The will named as trustee the City of Philadelphia. The provisions of the will were carried out by the State and City and the college was opened in 1848. Since 1869, by virtue of an act of the Pennsylvania Legislature, the trust has been administered and the college operated by the 'Board of Directors of City Trusts of the City of Philadelphia.' Pa.Laws 1869, No. 1258, p. 1276; Purdon's Pa.Stat.Ann., 1957, Tit. 53, § 16365.
In February 1954, the petitioners Foust and Felder applied for admission to the college. They met all qualifications except that they were Negroes. For this reason the Board refused to admit them. They petitioned the Orphans' Court of Philadelphia County for an order directing the Board to admit them, alleging that their exclusion because of race violated the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. The State of Pennsylvania and the City of Philadelphia joined in the suit also contending the Board's action violated the Fourteenth Amendment. The Orphans' Court rejected the constitutional contention and refused to order the applicant's admission. In re Girard's Estate, 4 Pa.Dist. & Co.R.2d 671 (Orph.Ct.Philadelphia). This was affirmed by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. 386 Pa. 548, 127 A.2d 287.
The Board which operates Girard College is an agency of the State of Pennsylvania. Therefore, even though the Board was acting as a trustee, its refusal to admit Foust and Felder to the college because they were Negroes was discrimination by the State. Such discrimination is forbidden by the Fourteenth Amendment. Brown v. Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483, 74 S.Ct. 686, 98 L.Ed. 873. Accordingly, the judgment of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania is reversed and the cause is remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.
Reversed and remanded with directions.

# Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Aaron, Pietro

Aaron, Pietro, a Florentine of the order of Jerusalem, and canon of Rimini, was a voluminous writer on music. The most considerable of his writings is "Il Toscanello delta Musica," 1523, 1529, 1539 - a rare and important work. He gave in it a decalogue, or ten precepts for counterpoint, in honor, it is said, of the ten commandments of God ; and six precepts of less importance, in honor of the six commandments of the church. His works became particularly useful, from being for the most part written in Italian; whereas those of almost all the preceding musical writers were in the Latin language. Pietro Aaron gives a list of such extraordinary performers as were able to sing from notes, "cantare a libro," by which we may suppose that the art was then in its infancy.

# Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Arcadians

Arcadians. A people of Arcadia, who were not distinguished in any of the liberal arts, except poetry and music. During their repasts, they all occasionally joined in singing. Music was a stated branch of their education, and under the special patronage of the magistrates. The Arcadian music and poetry were, probably, like those of all nations in their early stages, artless and uncouth ; but they possessed a natural expression and fervid sensibility, that have procured this sequestered nation the first rank in rural song. But music, though it unquestionably softened their domestic manners, did not by any means render the Arcadians effeminate, nor the less formidable to their enemies. On the contrary, the very flute which soothed them in their retirement animated them with rage in the day of battle, and regulated the evolutions of their battalions. To Pan, the god of the shepherds and the patron of rustic festivals, they paid their daily homage, by exercising their skill in the song and the dance, with the music of the pipe.
