BIG CROWD IN ATTENDING E
Five Thousand People Throng Andez
son Park and Listen to Splendid
Music by the Danish Singers
The Prizes are Divided

Kenosha had it's first Saengerfest
on Sunday afternoon when five
thousand people gathered at Ander-
son Park to witness the singing con-
tests given under the auspicies of the
singing society Bragg. It was the
largest crowd Of the year at the park
and the most orderly one. During
the morning, trains from all directions
brought in musicians from other cities
and when Prof. TIL. E1berg waived
his baton over the singers in the
afternoon seven singing, societies with
more than two hundred singers were
in attendance.
Two prizes had been offered for the
best work on the parts of the clubs.
The music was SO we'll rendered that
the judges found it hard to decide be-
tween the different clubs. Late in
the afternoon it was announced that
the prize for first place would be
divided between Svithiod of Kenosha
and the Hamlet Singing club of Ra-
cine. The second money was also
divided between The Harmonic Sing
ing club Of Waukegan and the Mag
neten club Of Chicago.
The judges for the big contest were
Prof. TIL. Elberg, Prof. P. M. Paul
sor, of Chicago; Editor Matt Myrup,
of Racine; and Prof. Frank r. Jacoby
of Kenosha. The judges were equally
divided on the award of prizes each
of the societies receiving two votes.
The decision of the judges was a
favored one with The great crowd and
the announcement was greeted with
storms Of applause.
While the music rendered by the
dferent societies was of an exceed
ing high order the real feature of the
Saengerfest was the chorus singing.
The combined societies brought
together chorus of more than two
| hundred voices and under the direction
of the veteran blind conductor this
great chorus sang with splendid effect
the National hymn ''The Star
Spangled Banner and the "So1diers
Chorus by Gunoud.
After the contests were over the
members of the different societies
gathered at different places on the
ground and the singing continued
until late in the night. In all the
Saengerfest was great success and
the officers of the local society are
deserving of great credit.
The following was the program for
the afternoon:

and audience. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

SAYS WIFE DESERTED HIM
Pasadena Man Granted InterIocutory
Decree of Divorce From
Recreant Wife

George S. Haddon was granted a di-
vorce from his wife. Augustine e. Had
don, yesterday by Judge Wilbur of the
superior court
The charge under which the divorce
was asked was that of desertion.
The couple were married January 2,
1895. in Pasadena and until 1908 they
lived together without any serious trou-
BILE. In June of 1908 Mrs. Haddon left
her home against the wishes of her
husband and went ostensibly to visit
her sister In San Jose.
AS shown on the evidence, there had
been young man named Smith room
ing with the Haddon family and there
was intimacy between the man and
Mrs. Haddon. Haddon became aware
of that fact and Smith moved from
the house and went to room in an
other part of Pasadena.
Haddon testified that the reason that
his wife left his home was that he had
cautioned her to be careful in her re-
lations with Smith.
No letter had been received by him
since the time his wife left him. Wit
nesses were introduced to prove the
statements made by Haddon. An In
terlocutory decree was granted.

CHICKENS PROVE DOWNFALL
Frank Wright Must Go to the Peni-
tentiary Without Seeing
His Infant

The desire of Frank Wright to max :
a name for himself in the social circles
in which he moved caused him to
wander forth at night and visit hen
houses. 1t was a dark secret but it
all came to light before Judge Bledsoe
in department / of the superior court
yesterday morning and Wright was
sentenced to three years in Folsom
prison.
Wright, according to his own con-
fession, made various raids on the hem
neries of the Duarte valley last May
and took many chickens. He was dis
covered on one of his raids and was
arrested.
Yesterday when he appeared to an
swer the charge he told the judge that
since his Imprisonment several months
ago his wife had born him baby. The
appeal failed to make an impression
and the man will go to the penitentiary
without seeing the infant.

President of New Board of Trade Is
Enthusiastic Over Prospects of
His Section of the
Southwest

L. c. Miles Of Yuma, Ariz, president
of the Yuma county board of trade, is
In Los Angeles, with headquarters at
the Occidental club. He states that
the Yuma board of trade is live
and active organization consisting of
over 100 members, although 1t has been
organized but short time.
I'VE are now building" he said yes
terday, in speaking of the work they
are doing, "a large glass house at the
passenger depot for the exhibition of
products of our wonderfully produc-
tive valley. 1t will be brilliantly light
ed at night and is so located that every
one passing through Yuma on the
trains can see 1t. g.
II am much gratified," he continued,
with the interest that Los Angeles
business men are taking in our coun-
try. They all seem to realize that 1t
is of great Importance to Los Angeles,
not only to the business people as q
market for their goods, but also as an
additional stability to realty values
here.
I'VE can raise almost any crop that
can be grown in colder climates and in
greater quantities. Two crops of ce-
reals are grown each year. We can also
grow almost any tropical plant. Among
our products are sugar corn such as

the southern states, cotton, sorghum,
kaffir and Egyptian corn, oranges,
lemons, grapefruit. figs, grapes and
many kinds Of berries.
THE great irrigation system now be-
ing built by the government at Yuma
is well under way. Hundreds of men
and teams are at work building levees
and another large squad is at work
building a large dam. A large eec-
trio light plant has been built. so that
work can be carried on at night, and
Mr.. Seymour, the engineer in charge,
states that the entire work will be
completed by next June.
MANY homesteaders are coming in
and buying land, which can be OBJ
tained very cheaply, but is rapidly ad-
vancing in price. A great many i'm
provements are going on in the city
and q great many more are under con-
temptation. Although many houses
have been built and many more are
in process of construction. the town is
so crowded that it is hard for a stran-

IMPROVEMENTS AT HIGH MARK
Bulletin Board In Front Of City Hall
g. Covered With Notices of Pro.
posed Work

The highwater mark in street i'm
provement in Los Angeles has been
reached, both in the number of i'm
provements to be made and the total
cost. The bulletin board in the front
entrance of the city hall is literally
covered with advertisements for bids,
embracing fourteen sewer and nineteen
street jobs. Only once before in the
history of the city has this board been
covered. That was about three and a
half years ago when Reimbursement
for a number Of Improvements made it
not only necessary to cover the bulle-
tin board, but to paste some adver-
tisements on the sides of the building
All that are now on the board, how
ever, are for new business.
None of the improvements contem-
plated is especially large, except that
for the paving of East Ninth street.
between Central and Santa Fe ave-
nues. This will probably cost between
$4,000 and $60,000 The other street
improvements are mostly for grading
and graveling. The sewers are chiefly
short ones of but few blocks.
Minute Clerk Wilde of the city
clerks office who has charge of the
advertisements for improvements, ex-
presses himself as astounded at the
volume of business that the city Is
doing in this direction.
'fI have been here for number of
years and I never saw anything like
it," said Mr.. Wilde. "And, further
more, do not believe that any city
of it's size in the world, and many that
are much larger, can make the same
showing in Improvements as Los An
geles. In addition to the business that
appears on the bulletin board, the
council yesterday passed final ordi-
nances for twenty-eight streets and
sewers and the bids for these should
be received December H."

HEAR EXCELLENT ADDRESS
Congress of Mothers Entertained by
Music and Speeches

j. f. Millspaugh, president of the
normal school, addressed the members
of the congress Of mothers at the Wo-
mems club house last night on the
"Co-operation Of the Home and School
in the Education of the Child" Mr..
Millspaugh said in part:
1.-Two powerful forces may complete
ly neutralize each other and too fee
BILE ones may yield a resultant which
is the sum of the maximum strength
of each. This law holds in the rela-
tions of the home and the school. If
the home and the school work har-
moniously and unitedly for the reali-
zation of their common purpose the
result of their efforts may easily ex-
ceed the sum of the two energies ex-
erted. Each should understand and
sympathize with the point of view of
the other The general view of both
is the same, but the part which each
bears is distinctly it's own.
Upon the home must always rest
the larger part of the moral and re-
ligious instruction of the children. The
social life Of the school develops a null
titude of relations involving moral acts
more, possibly than arise in the
home. The teacher should see to it
that these furnish their appropriate
ethical lessons.
furnishing unlimited assistance to the
child in the preparation of its lessons.
The child himself must do this, be-
cause power Is developed only by put
ting forth energy When the parents
do this for the child the purpose of
the school is defeated. If the spirit OF
helpful cooperation exists between the
home and the school each will seek to
avoid imposing upon the other unnec-

Musical Selections Excellent
An interesting feature of the meeting
last night was the rendition of several
musical selections by the Washington
street school orchestra.
Assistant Superintendent M c. Bet
finger spoke of the relation of the su-
perintendents to the child study cir
cles, saying that the superintendent
can only reach the material side, while
the study circles reach the human side
He referred to the circle as the con-
meeting link between the home and the
school,
Mrs. Emma Greenleaf spoke on 1.-THE
Supervised and the Supervisors" call
ing the mothers the supervisors and
the teachers the supervised.
Mrs. Catherine Pierce Wheat, chair
man of the resolutions committee, pre-
sented the following resolutions, which
We're indorsed by the congress-:
Resolved. That the state congress of
mothers work for the enforcement of
the curfew ordinance, which provides
that children under 16 shall be kept
off the streets and out of the theaters
after the curfew hour. unless attended
by parents or guardians.
Resolved. That we believe the de-
sertion of children by the father shall
be made a felony instead of a Y1ojada
meanor.
Resolved, That we indorse the work
of the humane society.
Resolved, That we thank the Treble
Clef club for the use of the audito-
rum.
Resolved, That we thank the press

ers, who declared also that the only
remedy can be found in the home.
The entire afternoon session was de-
voted to a symposium on Home Max
ing" and the play, the work, the holi-
days, the music and the art of the
home were discussed by speakers who
have made a speciality of each.
Mrs. ]. B. Millard, in a paper on
The Homeless" aroused the women
to a high pitch of enthusiasm.
while we theoretically discuss the
influences of the home and the influ-
ences which should emanate from the
home, we neglect to safeguard the
home in a practical way" said Mrs.
Millard

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their UnceasIng Work Keeps Us
Stronu and Healthy.

ShOHS anu EECdltINs
All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily; when UNI
healthy, some part of this impure
matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-
tome-pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheuma-
tism, govt, G avel, disorder of the eye
sight and hearing, dizziness, irregular
heart, debility drowsiness, dropsy, de-
posts in the urine, etc. But if yon
keep the filters right you will have
no trouble with your kidneys.
