WIFE To CONTEST
COL. BRADY'S SUIT
SOCIETY WOMAN MAY FILE
CROSS COMPLAINT
FIGHT FOR CUSTODY OF CHILD
Social Circles Of Los Angeles and
Pasadena Watch for the Next
Move In Action for
Divorce
FIGHT FOR CUSTODY OF CHILD

The divorce suit brought by ]. P.
Brady of Chicago against his wife,
Emma Given Bryan Brady, society
woman and Friday Morning club men,
ber of this city, Is to be stubbornly
contested by the latter when the case
comes to trial.
Mr.. Brady charges his wife with
cruelty and demands a judicial separa-
ton and asks for the custory of their
eight-year- son. In his bill he de-
clares his wife's extravaganza has
made him bankrupt.
In Los Angeles Society
Two years ago the Bradys came to
Los Angeles and being possessed Of
wealth and culture and backed with
good social standing in the east, were
at once received into the best society
of the city. Mr.. Brady is brother Of
Cyrus Townsend Brady, the noted au-
thor, and has himself won some fame
from volume of stories called "Tales
of the Telegraph" He had seen SER
vice in the Spanish-American war,
having acted as press censor, and being
a good talker with an agreeable per-
sonality, quickly became a favorite,
especially with the ladies-so report
has it; and this gift of attracting the
other sex, his wife alleges. is really
the cause of the present suit, instead
of her cruelty.
Mrs. Brady Talks
1.-The information that Col."-she
calls him colonel-"Brady has brought
a suit for divorce in Cricago was a
surprise to me-" said his wife when
seen at her home in the fashionable
Westlake district yesterday. HE has
no grounds whatever for the action.
1 shall go to Chicago when the case
is tried and contest every inch.
Through my attorney, Lynn Helm, 1
shall bring counter suit for divorce on
the grounds of desertion. He left me
a year ago, stating he was going away
for three weeks on business. I have
not seen him since. nor have I re-
ceived a penny from him. He was
employed by the Conservative Life In
surance company here. and when he
left told me the company would send
me his salary. telephoned the office
two weeks after his departure and re-
ceived the information that Mr.. Brady
had not been connected with the COM
pany for three weeks before he left.
Not understanding his remaining
away so long and not wishing to give
any chance for gossip | gave out that
Colonel Brady's business was keeping
him away longer than he had expected.
1 kept thinking that he would return.
"Extragance? Absurd"
"As for the charge of extravaganza
1t is absurd. Col. Brady has very ex-
pensive tastes and 1 spent the whole of
my own fortune i'm paying our bills.
Besides, his income was not large and
often had to settle many bills"

GREAT TRIBUTE TO
NINE. MODJESKA
BENEFIT FOR NOTED ACTRESS
IN NEW YORK
oPERATIc STARS ON PROGRAM
Testimonial to One Of the Best Known
Women OF the Stage viii Be
an Event Of Widespread
Interest

Madame Helena Modjeska, who for
years past has made her summer home
in Southern California at beautiful
Arden in the foothills Of the Santa Ana
mountains, is to be honored with tes-
timonial to be given her on May in
New York by the most famous drama
tic. musical and operatic stars of two
continents. Madame Modjeska passed
through Los Angeles en- route to New
York early last week.
This testimonial has been arranged
by Ignace Jan Paderewski, Madame
Sembrich and number of others of
nearly equal fame and promises to be
an event not only in the dramatic
world but also with New York society.
Ex-Presdent and Mrs. Cleveland head
the list of prominent people under whose
patronage the affair is to be held and in
their offering of such a testimonial to
Madame Modjeska they say that they
wish to express by such a testimonial
their appreciation of what she has done
for art and the elevation of the stage.
The we'll known fact is also mentioned
that Modjeska has stood unswervingly
for the highest ideals in her art. This
was proven during the last winter when
she refused the largest offer ever made
to a single individual to star in vaude-
Los Angeles herald., 1905-04-23
Success of Her Life

Success of Her Life
But few people live to realize so COM
plete a success in life as has Madame
Modjeska. In spite of hardships, diff
culties and even banishment from her
native and beloved Poland, by dint of
hard work and perseverance she has
won the esteem Of two continents, has
mastered her art, and in spite of having
given away several fortunes in charities
has yet competent fortune upon which
to depend in years to come.
Madame Modjeska Is naturally much
pleased at this spontaneous expression
on the part of her friends in New York
and was eager to reach the great Amer
lean center of dramatic art and renew
friendships and repeat the triumphs Of
past years.
In addition to Arden a substantial
property in Poland yields an income
from which Madame Modjeska supports
members of her family there.
The matchlessly beautiful Arden
ranch, consisting of several thousands
of acres of plain, foothill meadows and
thickly wooded canyons, was the sum-
mer home of the we'll known actress for
a number Of years. Since she has not
been playing regularly the greater por-
tion of her time is spent under the giant
live oaks of Arden. The house itself is
worthy of ,mentioh but is merely an in
cident in the grounds, comprising as
they do acres Of lawn and flowers
stretching away under the oaks to the
Santiago creek several hundred yards
away, while on the other side the
mountains rise to a level plateau or
mesa which is covered with an orange
orchard, then back of the orchard the
peaks of the Santa Anas' rise thousands
Los Angeles herald., 1905-04-23
Fortune Spent on Ranch

A fortune has been expended in equip
ping this ranch. A dam eighty feet
in height was thrown across the mouth
of a side canyon and lake thus formed
more than a mile long, which furnishes
water for the. olive orchards below and
sport for guests who may be disciples of
Izaak Walton. Hundreds of acres of
olives are bearing and the fruit is con-
verted into olive oil on the ranch.
Los Angeles admirers of Madame
Modjeska will have an opportunity OF
seeing her on the stage again later in
the spring. She is to play "Magda" at
Hazards pavilion, now known as
Temple auditorium, as a finale to the
existence to the old pavilion which has
been the scene Of so many noteworthy
events in the dramatic history of Los
Angeles. Immediately after this per-
formance the old building is to be torn
down to make room for the new and
larger structure which is to take its
place.
