New Idea Club Entertainment.

The entertainment of the New Idea
Club in Loves hall, on Wednesday
evening last, was one of the most
successful affairs presented by local
talent for long time. 1t was a sue
cess from every standpoint-attend
ance, merits of the performance, and
the financial outcome. The hall was
crowded to the doors, all the reserved
seats at rs cents being occupied, and
all the seating and standing room
available take up. The program was
published in full in these columns
last week, and it is hence unnecessary
to repeat it, Suffice it to say that
all the participants sustained their
respective parts In a very creoltable
manner. Many pieces we're encored
and the audience in other ways dis
played its qualification with the
entertainment.
The atterpiece. farce, entitled
MARY Miller" sustained by three
characters. represented by Mrs Nettle,
Miss Emma Boarman and Jas. Jay
Wright, elected a fund of amuse-
ment, and was greeted with rounds of
applause.
1t was past midnight when the
entertainment was finished, but not
wIthstandlng the warmth OF the night,
very few of the spectators left before
the close.
The fact that the performance was
given for the benefit of the M. E.
church helped to draw the large
crowd present. as we'll as the attrac-
tion of local artists. The exact
amount realized we are not able to
state this week, but 1t is estimated
that fully 500 will be left for the
church after paying all expenses.

Notary Public.

The case of o. E. Martin against
the Amador Lumber Company was
tried in the superior court on Mon
day and Tuesday last, without jury.
Plaintiff sued the company for $3.50,
alleged to be due for services as book
keeper ETC., at the lumber yard in
Amador City. The evidence showed
that L. A. Chichlzola was the regular
book keeper, and that he hired Martin
to straighten out the hooks, etc., and
the contention of the defendant was
that the claim, if any the plaintiff
bad, was against Chichizola, and not
against the Lumber Company. After
hearing the evidence the judge decid
ed from the bench in favor of defend
ant. with costs of suit.

ALL BANKS MAY
LOAN SPARE CASH
WIDER SCOPE FOR REALTY
OPERATORS
National Bank Officials in Los Anae les
Say Amendment to Banking
Law Will Help Small

The action of the house of represen-
ing law so that national banks will be
permitted to loan money on real es-
tate is the subject of considerable dis
cussion in Los Angeles in financial
circles. Savings and commercial
banks have heretofore enjoyed a mo4
nopoly in placing loans on real estate,
the national banks using funds for the
convenience of merchants and others
who are in a position with negotiable
collateral to produce cash on quick
demand.
The sentiment of Los Angeles bank
ers is reflected In a chat with j. NJ
Elliott, president of the First National
bank who is quoted as saying:
1.-The amendment will be good
thing for small country banks. They
will be able to get real estate security
on their money, and this is the best
security obtainable in country places.
Population is rural, and the invest
ments are nearly all in real estate
therefore the customers of banks in
such places are generally farmers and
they can give better security, as a
rule, than others. City banks will do
as they have done before. They see
that it is their duty to assist the COM
mercial end of the city's business, and
they will leave to the savings banks
and private persons loans of money
on real estate. They are not quick
enough for national banks and, 1
think, it would be detrimental to the
geenral interests of the country for
the national banks to interfere with
savings banks and private individuals
in competing for loans on real estate"
The house bill will go to the senate
for concurrence or rejection.

FORM EXCHANGE
MOVEMENT TO ELIMINATE THE
COMMISSION FEATURE
Company Is Capitalized at $75, 900.
Rooms Being Fitted Up on
Broadway for the New
Organization

Following closely upon the formation
of a chamber of mines comes the an
nouncement that Los Angeles is to
have real estate exchange.
Articles of Incorporation of the Los
Angeles Real Estate exchange, with a
capital stock of $4,000, have been filed
and the institution will be in full run
ming order before January /.
Quarters have been secured on the
third floor of the building occupied by
the Wiley B. Allen Music company on
Broadway, between Fourth and Fifth,
and wOrkmen now are engaged in fit
ting up the big room for the purposes
intended This includes an immense
blackboard, running the entire length
of the room and on which each MEM
ber of the exchange will be permitted
to list three pieces of property, but
there is no limit to the number of such
pieces that may be listed with the sec
retary of the exchange and to which
all members will have access.
Object of Exchange
Membership in the exchange is OBJ
tanned by the payment of a small ini-
tiation fee and quarterly dues, and the
income from this source goes to defray
the running expenses of the institution.
The object of the exchange, as out
lined by the prospectus, is to form a
convenient place where the buyer and
seller may meet in a friendly, social or
business manner and eliminate the
commission feature of real estate trans
actions.
Promoters of the project claim that
the exchange will do much to place real
estate transactions on a sound bust
ness basis, in that by eliminating the
commission feature, property may be
bought at its true market value.
