ESSAY AND RECITAL,
Mrs. Crawford's First of Series of
Three Takes Place To-Night.

The first Of the series of three ESSAYS
and recitals by Mrs. jeanette, w. Craw-
ford takes place this evening at 7:45
at Pommer's pretty little hail. 505 ]
street. The subject of the essay this
evening will be Musical Forms'-first.
etude form; second, song form with
out words); third, sonata form. The
whole will be Illustrated with analyti-
cal playing.
Mrs Crawford is one of the most dis
tinguiShed and thorough musical schol-
ars and analysts of the country. BY
Eastern critics she is placed superior
to all other women who have engaged
in essay and analytical work in public
She is known in the East. and now in
California, best as 'the Beethoven Pi-
aniste." Madame Crawford spent years
in studying under Jadassohn, Wenzel
and at the Leipsic Conservatory, and
her subsequent study and experience
in America equips her for the work she
undertakes in a thorough manner.
A San Francisco critical paper. in
speaking of her says: ''She has a mag
netic manner that at once gains her
listeners attention, and her piano il
lustrations add Interest," and charm TO
the discourses."
The same paper commends her to
lovers Of music in Sacramento warmly.
Season tickets for the series of three es-
says and recitals can be had at Pom
mer's music store, as, also, single ad-
mission tickets

bylaws as agreed on. He said the
committee had discussed them and en-
deavored to have them conform TO the
national constitutions OF the society.
Rev. G. L. Mel read a minority re-
port that differed in several unimport-
ant points, one being that members
should pay 81 as membership fee,
while the majority report provided for
81 a year and a life membership for
$25
Frank Miller advocated the adoption
OF the minority report as under it all
present members would continue to be
members, while under the ajority re-
port after the war excitement is over
the membership would lapse and there
would be none left but life members.
j. o. Coleman also favored it, say
ing that when the society was form
ed those becoming members We're prom
ised that there should be no dues, and
that promise should be kept
The minority report was unanimous
ly adopted.
Mr.. Coleman said that the bylaws
just adopted provided for eleven direc-
tors and as there have been but seven
heretofore, he moved that Mesdames
w. d. Lawton, r. I. Bentley, f. L
Hamilton and A ]. Johnston be added
to the present members, to complete the
number provided for
The motion was carried unanimously.
Mrs. Miller moved that the present
Auditing Board be retained unchanged.
and it was so ordered.
Z. L. Calvin made some very inter-
est1ng remarks on Red Cross work and
the part taken in it by women and
the great work done by them The
Red Cross in America has touched the
keynote that will result in elevating
the nations of the whole earth. He
spoke of the forbearance shown by the
nation to Spain and Spaniards after
conquering them. He said that Sac
ramento had responded more promptly.
more generously and more nobly than
any other city in the United States
when. the society was started here. and
he honored it for doing so, and if ever
the occasion arises again. through war
or calamity, it will do so again.
Mrs. Elkus moved that this meeting
be considered the meeting for Novem-
per 10 be held under the new bylaws,
and it was so ordered.
Mrs. Flkus, the President, said that
lady present had given two sons to
the army and spoke of the desire of the
soldiers for reading matter. There will
be an appeal made to the public soon
through the newspapers setting time
and place for contributions.
Mrs. Elkus stated that the Foresters'
Association had offered the use of the
nall free for all meetings of the So
ciety. The society thereupon passed a
vote OF thanks to the association and

WEATHER FORECASTS.
How Farmers May Receive Them
by Telephone.

Observer James A Barwick. official
in charge of the Weather Bureau Of
1ce in this city wishes to have it known
by all farmers in Sacramento and Yo!o
Counties, in the immediate vicinity of
Sacramento, and who are in telephone
connection with the Sunset Telephone
Company, that at any time they desire
daily forecasts of the weather he would
be pleased to favor them-in the fore
noon between $50 and 9:3O o'clock. or
between 10 and II noon.
There are times when rain or frosts
are anticipated after the morning fore
casts have been issued. Observer Bar
wick receives from the Forecast Officer
at San Francisco special warnings in
the evening between Z and 8 o'clock.
Farmers who desire to be notified of
these special forecasts when they are
received at the Sacramento Weather
Bureau office can have them telephoned
by leaving their addresses and tela-
phone numbers with Observer Barwick
at the Weather Bureau office in this
city
This information is given out for the
first time, because the farmers in the
near vicinity of this city have but re-
Gently been in telephone connection
1t is also more particularly intended
for those parties who are not on the
long-distance circuit. In other words,
If those who are on long distance cir
cults, and an extra fee is required to
send them these forecasts, it must be
understood that the fee is to be paid
by the receiver of the forecasts, as the
Weather Bureau Department does not
pay for such reports being sent out.

Ex-Judge A. P. Catlin, attorney for

Of his claim against the estate for serv-

Wilbur F. George were present to testi-
fy as to the value of the services rend-
cred by Judge Catlin, but had not given

Option in Taxation.

Eds. 'Record-Un Salutation,
and assurances Of the distinguished
consideration of an ex-editor for an
acting editor. 1t is grateful to the
feelings of man who has attained to
the age of 40 years to be alluded to as
a young DemoSthenes" even in Jest
Perhaps you know how it is yourself.
But it is of moment, even to "a young
Demosthenes, to be correctly reported.
l do not desire to impeach the integ-
rity of purpose on the part of your ex-
cellent reporter. He meant to convey
correctly what / said at Mr.. Dwyer' S
Monday night meeting at the corner of
Twentieth and @ streets Indeed, he
was not inaccurate in what he reported,
but he omitted to give the keynote of
my speech. You will permit me to
briefly summarize my adversion to the
Record Union" l said:
The Republican party of to-day has
no confidence in the capacity of the
people to determine wisely questions
vitally affecting their interests. 1t is
afraid to give the people an opportunity
to express themselves on certain ques-
tions. 1t is not home rule party In
proof Of this assertion I call your at
tention to the attitude of the Record
Union of this city deploring the plank
in the Democratic platform favoring
local option in taxation. 1t would have
you understand that local option in
taxation means the adoption Of the sin
gle tax. l say that this is far-fetched
and untrue. A man may favor local
option in taxation, as he would any
other measure Of home rule
You may not be aware of the fact
that during the last session of the Leg
islature Senator Robert Bulla of Los
Angeles an aspirant for the position of
United States Senator at the hands CT
the Republican party, was one of the
active representatives fayoring the sub
mission of a constitutional amendment
favoring local option in taxation. Mr..
Bulla is not single taxer, but he
thought the people of this State should
have the right to determine whether
they desired the privilege of local op-
ton in taxation. The question is one
of home rule, and not one of the adop-
ton of a specific kind of taxation
I explained further that in the event
of the submission of a constitutional
amendment permitting local option in
taxation and it's adoption by the peo-
pie, if any given locality should adopt
the single tax it would be purely ex
perimentaI. If the system in opera
tion justified itself it would be con-
tinued, and other localities would
adopt it, If it were unpopular and in
furious, local option in taxation would
enable a community which had adopt
ed it to give it up, and that would be
the end of the single tax
