mar & 90. occupies rooms on two floors
in the First National bank building,
and many ladies have repaired to these
rooms to engage in art work, and very
many Of the designs inspected today
were very artistic. But the ladies

and their complaints are many and
varied. They claim to have paid mon
ey under promise that when they at
tain certain proficiency thsy are to
to be taken into the firm or employed
as instructors and paid salaries of
from $6 to SIS per week.
Attorney Hahn's office yesterday
was the scene of no end Of complaints
against the firm. Today it has been
the same, until soms flfty to sixty la.
dies have m ads statements that they
have been defrau led.
The management claims that none of
the ladies have good ause for CON-
plant; that he had lived up to his
agreement; that they we're not regu-
larly employed, and at good salaries,
because they we're not competent as
teachers; that he has twelve ladies in
his employ at present who receive SAL
aries, and commission of $3.50 per pu-
pill is paid his canvassers.

against Garvaise by Mrs. Hoffers of Los
