The opening of the subscription con-

a crowded house at the Congregational
Church, at the first of the winter con-
certs Of the Capital Series under direc
ton of AIessrs. Cohn and Kidder It as
a splendid audience of music lovers, and
the concert was worthy of the audi

The programme was given as an

There is nothing cold about his meth
cd: it is animation, vigor, life, but with
out any loss of delicacy. Miss Wood
was in fine voice and sang even better
than when heard here a year or more
ago. Her contralto is of an especially
pleasing quality. Rhys Thomas made
his first appearance in concert in Sac
ramento. He could scarcely have Gre
ated a more favorable impression. His
tenor has a resonant quality and man
ly vigor of expression that is only
equaled by the large volume Of tone.
His most melodiOus notes are in the
middle register, which is remarkably
sweet. Donald de Y. Graham, the
well-known baritone, sang felicitiously
and with his usual depth of expression
and artistic method. Mr.. Roshorough

her style is even more artistic. Few

was pronounced on all sides complete

assurance of success throughout the
season. Every number was ercOred
last night, even in Miss Woods case,
who had three songs in her first num-
beg and two In her second. This much
prolonged the concert, but it must De

The CREEK FRAUDS.
Evidence Discovered Showing a Conspira-
cy Within the Tribe.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Especial
Agent beverly of the interior depart

$50 900 worth of fraudulent Creek Indian
warrants was announced last week, has
reached here. He had a conference with
Acting Secretary of the Interior Ryan
and made a verbal report of his inves-
tigation
This was confirmatory of the publish
ed statement showing that that amount
of fraudulent warrants on the st. Louis
subtreasury had been issued, but that
the government would lose nothing by
the transaction. The losers are outside
parties. who purchased the warrants on
speculation.
One of the discounters. acting in good
faith, bought $50. 900 worth of these war;
rants, paying 92 cents on the dollar.
The remaining $4,000 is understood to
be confined to a few parties. The Unit
ed States district attorney has the case
in his hands now, and it is probable
that indictments will soon follow. The
investigation developed the existence of
a conspiracy within and about the tribe
to float these warrants. A number of
the most prominent officials in the tribe
are charged with the offense.
