music, they are not to be considered

the lines are witty and some are little

minds. The music is not too original.

MOODY'S ATTORNEYS STATE
MENT,

Attorney Edward G. auckland of
Watrous & auckland, counsel for Mr..
Arthur B. Moody. issued a statement
to the press, last night, in which it is
claimed that the police story printed
in last nights papers is misleading and
untrue. The mining operations in
which he was engaged were legitimate
in all respects. The mines and mining
companies which he represented were
and are bona f1de investments. The
moneys which he received went to the
development of the mining properties
and not one cent was used in an i'll
legal manner. All this can and will be
shown at the proper time by incontro-
vertible documentary evidence. Mr.
Moody never used any money received
from investors for his personal ex-
penses beyond a reasonable commission
upon the securities sold
