Colored Meeting Row

There is trouble, dark trouble, in the
colored church on Feast Fifth street
Milton Combs, the corn doctor, is the
cause of the row, which he describes as
happening thusly: In the church is a
colored lady of godlike pretensions, for
she claims to be the wife of the Saviour.
Otherwise she is anonymous. Mr.. Combs
objected to his wife associating with
this person in religious way, and Mon
day evening removed his spouse from
the meeting. Indignant members of the
church swore out a warrant charging
him with disturbing the peace, to which
Combs pleads not guilty, being allowed
to go on his own recognizance.

Hollands Beautiful Young Gu

Hollands Beautiful Young Queen
A German correspondent in Brussels
who has seen the young queen of Hol-
land many times in the last four months.
describes her present appearance in a
way that may explain the sudden con-
version of Albert Of Flanders, in his
23d year, from a life OF unrestrained
gaiety to thoughts Of mar'ige.
She Is, without doubt, the most
beautiful woman who has sat on a
European throne for centuries" says
the corresp spondent. "She has matured
with amazing rapidity in the last six
months, and is now without exaggera-
tion worthy of being called the Venus of
the Oranges. She is little above me-
dium height, with finely sloped shoul-
ders, Reckless skin and physical propor-
tions beyond reproach. Her figure and
style remind me Of the perfect proper
tions supposed to be peculiar TO the Wo-
men of Vienna. She has Grecian nose.
a forehead of medium height, but rather
broad, large, grayish blue eyes and
rather full scarlet lips. Her color is
bright pink, shading off to little touches
of the most delicate hue near the ears,
and her teeth are even, white and strong.
She has the finest feminine forearm in
Europe, for she has long been an expert
at tennis aud the oars.
II am told that German and English
are the same as Dutch to her, and that
French and Italian are much more diff
cult for her. She is not musical. does
not paint, does not carve, and is not
moved by high are of any kind or poetry
or fiction. She is the ideal, in fact, of a
strong, healthy self-willed. common
sense young woman, with all the physi-
cal beauties that nature and careful
training can give her."--Chicago Times

MUSIC NOTES

The concert last evening at Simpson
tabernacle was particularly enjoyable.
II was given under the direction of S. R.
Lippincott for the benefit of the La
manda Park M. E. church. The pro-
gram was long and too varied, perhaps,
but it was made up of high-class music
and was we'll rendered throughout. Mrs.
Katherine Kimball Forest, whose sing
ing is always artistic, was in especially
good voice, and her Interpretation was
delightful Of both Bach -Gounod ave
Maria" and Dudley Bucks Awakening
of Spring" s,.
Miss 'AlfceSsC Coleman ,tJf Pasadena. In
her piano numbers, deepened the fa-
vorable impression. made at her con-
cert few weeks ago; she is an accom-
plished player, with reliable technic and
considera BILE temperament, and she met
the eXactions OF the Paderewski "Polo-
naise," little "Minuet,' by Mrs. Beach,
and Chopin Waltz adequately. Miss
Matilee Loeb played Levy's Russian
Fantasie" with its familiar theme and
variations, and later "Polonaise," by
Robinson, extremely well.
Miss Lucia Forest of New York ac-
quilted herself brilliantly in two harp
solos, a "Fantasie" by Alvars, and foul
minis arrangement of "Ballo in Masch-
ero." and showed, as she has before,
artistic proficiency in the graceful ac-
complishment. II. S. Williams, who was
also in good voice, sang three numbers
in his best manner, the last the beauti-
full "Intermezzo' from Cavalleria, in
which he was accompanied with fine ef-
feet by piano, harp and violin.
OF Arthur Perry's violin playing very
much in praise may be said. He is do
ing good work, and is advancing stead
ily His handling of the extremely diff
ficult NieuXtemps "Fantaisie Caprice"
was more than excellent last night. His
technic was clever, his bowling free, at
tack sure; he produced some good and
varied tones, and in the Ernst "Eiegie"
later in the evening he displayed quail
ties which show him to be altogether
worthy of appreciation for his present
accomplishment and encouragement for
better results as time goes on.
AS farewell mark of appreciat ton for
the conscientious and earnest work C. S.
Cornell has done in a musical way dur
ing his three years residence in Los
Angeles his confreres will tender him
testimonial concert Monday night at
Music hall, when fine program will be
contributed by some of the best artists
here. Mr.. Cornell will leave for his new
field of work at Mount Holyoke, Mass,
few days after the concert and it is
probable that a large audience will as
semble as a parting courtesy to him.
