A subpoena issued from Police Judge
Lows court for the attendance OF Nevada
Countys Recorder in the case of Professor
John Tilton, who is charged with obtain
ing money by false pretenses, brings to
light the story of mining swindle perpe-
irated on an unsuspecting Portuguese
with more than salutary regard for the
prophecies of fortune -tellers.
francisco Rodriguez. the victim, in
vested couple of dollars with med ium
in Sacramento last January. Among the
bright things told him was that he would
soon meet with wealthy mine-owner,
who would give him the opportunity of
his life to realize a vast fortune in short
time on a com paratively small financial
outlay.
A few days later, January 15 Rodriguez
was on the train from Sacramento to this
City, when he was engaged in converse
tion by Tilton, who showed him some
rich quartz he had extracted from a mine
he owned in the North Bloomfield dis
trict, near Nevada City.
Rodriguez Immediately remembered the
fortune-teller's words, and before the
train reached this City he had arranged
with the stranger for a small share in the
mine. He paid Tilton 5000 in cash and
agreed to work the claim at 50 per day
until be- had earned 5000 which was to GO
toward full paymen of $500 for a half
interest.
Titon and Rodriguez went to the min
ing district aud the former showed his
newly made friend a mountain of rocks
by the roadside.
THAT'S the mine,' he said. Now, you
go to work there and get out all you can
before get back"
Rodriguez labored hard and diligently,
bnt never saw the color OF pay quartz. As
Tilton failed to show UP, and as Rodriguez
began TO realize he had been swindled, he
returned to this City and caused Tilton's
arrest.

give a piano recital, assisted by ]. Bond
Francisco, violinist, and Miss Mary i.
O'Donoughue, accompanist. Little Pa
Iona has played here at the pupils re-
citals given by her instructor, Herr
Thilo Becker, and her performance on
each of those occasions has convinced all
who heard her that she possesses extra
ordinary talent. More than that, those
who know her best, including that care
full critic, Herr Becker, are assured that
her natural musical endowment amounts
to positive genius. for she has coherent
musical ideas that she has put into the
tangible form Of compositions which
would do credit to much more mature
minds.
Little Paloma was born in San Fran
cisco, August 30, 1888, and she is there
fore but little over years old. For tho
past seven years she has lived in Los
Angeles with her father, mother and
sister, who is two years her junior. For
the past two years Herr Becker has had
the entire charge Of her musical de-
velopment, and her progress has been
amazing. Her understanding Of the
great classical composers Is remarka BILE
her childish Inconsistencies in inter-
preting their masterpieces is delicious
and her accomplishment in the way OF
technique Is truly mastery.
Her father, who is mechanical en-
