FOR A HOSPITAL.
Physicians Confer with Committee
Everything Looks Encour-
aging.

AS stated in Tuesdays Herald and
News, Il meeting Of the special COM
mItter appointed by the Chamber Of
Commerce TO secure information in
regard to the hospital, which The
Herald and News has been advoeat-
ing, was held in the Chamber Of Com
merce rooms with the physicians of
he city Tuesday afternoon.
The committee is composed of
G. b. Cromcr, j. B. Hunter and T..
N. Martin. Ten out of the thirteen
phySicians in the city an active prac-
ticc were present with this committee
and the others would have been there
but for the fact that they had urgent
calls at that hour.
The sentiment of the physicians,
who attended the conference. was
unanimously in favor Of the cstab-
lisllmmt of n hospital in the city.
They also agreed that in their opin-
ION the project would be feasible and
practicable and Of great benefit in
the successful treatment of diseases.
Nothing, of course, definite was done
operating and as soon as this informa-
ton is in hand, another meeting will
tee will write to the management of
some private hospitals in different
cities of the state and ascertain the
cost of building as we'll as the cost of
operating and as soon as this commits
sion is in hand. another meetin. will
be held with the physicians, and it is
very probable that definite action will
be taken in the near future looking
10 the erection Of hospital in New
berry.
There can be no doubt in the mind
Of anyone that hospital is needed
here. and that it would be n source of
great good to the community, and we
are satisfied that our broad-minded
and liberal citizens. who have the
means, will not hesitate to cooperate
with the physicians in the purchase
of lot and the erection of suitable
buildings. and that the means will be
provided for the current expenses for
such an institution.
or course il is not expected. at least
II: the beginning, that il will be Il
paying institution in dollars and
cents. and it is not with that purpose
IN view that the matter has been a"i-
tatel at all, but with view Of being
able to care for those, who need hos
pital treatment and who are sick and
probably do not have The means to 90
abroad to more expensive hospitals.
The Herald and News hopes that
definite action will be taken in the
near future.

Dispatches received from Imperial yes

the charges were supposed to relate to
Prescott's alleged connection with land

When seen last night Gen. Prescott
said:
'.I invite the fullest investigation OF my

in which Mr.. Gleason is interested. l dc
not know just what the charges are, but

TESTIMONY ALLEGES
WOMAN INCOMPETENT
DEFENDANTS ARE ACCUSED OF
USING FRAUD
Witnesses for Defendant Say Advan-
tage Was Taken of Her Mental
Weakness to Secure
Property

Before Judge Monroe in department
of the superior court the trial of suit
brought by D. H. Laubersheimer as
guardian for Lucy Robinson, alleged in
competent, against Celia Hine and Clara
Allen, was begun yesterday. The litiga-
ton is over a lot in Wilmington which
the plaintiff claims the defendants Sc
cured possession of through fraudulent
means.
Mrs Robinson, according to the testi-
mony, besides being feeble minded is
also addicted to the use of intoxicating
liquor. She neither speaks nor reads
English, and by the testimony of several
witnesses for the plaintiff 1t appeared the
defendants had taken advantage of her
mental weakness and induced her to sign
away the property.
City Clerk Bernard Wood of Whining.
ton stated on the witness stand that the
lot was worth $780, On cross-examina-
tion he said lot diagonally across the
street and only half as large had sold for
$3.50, and upon this he based his valua-
ton. Counsel for the defense differed
with him as to his method of basing his
estimate of the value, but Judge Monroe
cut the discussion short by saying he con-
sidered the larger lot worth more than
twice as much as one half the size sold
for. Both are corner lots.
Louis Blackman testified he had done
MrS. Robinson business lOT Atr lOI SOItie
time prior to the alleged sale and was of
the opinion that she was not competent
to transact business of that kind.
When asked if she could understand
him through an interpreter he answered:
"Yes, when she was SOBER"
The witness was told at the time of the
transfer that it was not SALE but merely
a precautionary measure to prevent Mrs.
Robinson's adopted son from getting pos
session of the place during the absence of
his mother, whose relatives intended to
take her to Mexico.
During the whole of the proceedings
Mrs. Robinson sat in the court room en-
tirely unmindful of what was going on.
She is 70 years of age and was left a
widow several months before the property
changed hands. The case will be con-
tinued today.

debut in Berlin, where she had been
under the instruction of Leopold Godow-
sky, to whom she had been sent by the
late Carl Wolfsohn of Chicago, America S
greatest exponent of Beethoven, after
four years of tutoring. She followed this
with concerts in Paris London and other
European cities and steadily and surely
her REPUTATION grew. 1t is rather an
anomaly that this American girl, so wide
ly known among the musical people of
Europe is but little known in her own
country.
This condition will be altered during
the coming season, for an American tour
Is now being arranged for the pianist.
Her American debut will occur October
81, when she will iappear with the
Thomas orchestra in Chicago. Subse-
uuently she will visit a number of
American cities, and 1t is probable that
Los Angeles will be included in her tour.
No American ever came home under more
pleasant auspices. Honored with numer-
Gus decorations and with the praise of
the critical and daily press of Europe ac-
companying her the beautiful and tall
ented young woman will make her bow
to the American public under most for
tunate circumstances.
The place that Miss Elvyn has won
for herself cannot help but excite the
pride of Americans. The consideration of
her technique will be left to the critics,
who have been lavish enough in their
praise of her More vital to the great
American public will be the fact that this
young girl went to Europe a stranger
and by force of her talents commanded
the respect of the most critical, made
herself welcome performer at the foot
of thrones and disproved the old Euro
pean theory that the fire of musical
genius burns on only one side OF the At
lantic. Even those whose interest in the
great world of music is small will feel

Young Woman Who Will Appear az
Big Benefit Declares She Was
at One Time an
Operator
Mss ANNIE MOORE

Miss Annie Moore, the singer who has
been delighting audiences at the Unique,
has consented to appear at the Com
mercial Telegraphers benefit at the
Auditorium Saturday night.
This makes sixteen acts on the pro-
gram. Mcragers of the benefit say the
ticket sales are most satisfactory and
indicate that the affair will be great
success
A pleasant little story developed when
Miss Moore was asked to appear at the
benefit performance.
Certainly I will appear at the teleg-
raphers' benefit" said Miss Moore. 1T
was because of a strike on railroad
where / was employed as an operator
that 1 entered the theatrical business. 4
.I believe the striking operators will
win this struggle. They are in the
right"
Among the other attractions will be

Musicians and Their Work
By Genevra Johnstone-Bishop op

IT'S America lacking in the production
of great musical genius? 1t was the lot
Il of an American woman to draw from
Kaiser Wilhelm, who considers himself
somewhat of a judge of music and musi-
clans, a denial of the charge that America
is in this wise deficient After the ap-
pearance of Myrtle Elvyn in the royal
palace at Berlin the emperor declared
that she was living refutation of that
belief, which has obtained some popu-
lar currency in Europe.
Three years ago Miss Elvyn made her
