The bride-to- be is the daughter of
Mrs. Cynthia Vail of the Arroyo Verde

young society women of the Pasadena

make their home in Sacramento
Other social events have been the
entertaining of the society folk. Din
ners, card parties and other delightful
functions more or less formal have had
their share in the passing of a pleasant
week. The most lively of all was the
Cafe Chantant held Thursday evening
at the Shakespeare club house. The
society lines were dropped and men
with money enough to buy the biggest
building in Pasadena for a play house
waited on table while discreet and aus
tere danes waltzed around the tables

There is nothing like it, say the ladies,

same nature to grace the future.
Miss Romina Blossom gave a very
delightful dinner at "The Blossoms"
Tuesday evening, and it was one of the
handsomest dinners of the season in

Rare flowers and most unique table

place cards and the best of menus,
made the evening one of those pleasant
events that fade away to dreamland

Out of Town Society
PASADENA

Several weddings have changed the
tenor Of the social world in the Crown
city during the past week. Indeed it
has been a week of weddings that has
set the record for the season SO far
recorded.
Probably the most prominent young
society woman to embark upon the
matrimonial seas is Miss Altadena
Green, the announcement of whose
marriage was made yesterday. Miss
Green is the charming daughter of
Colonel and Mrs. George Gill Green and
one of the leaders of the Pasadena
social set. The nuptial vows that made
her the wife of Mr.. Robert Neustadt
were said at the home of the groom s
mother, Mrs. Neustadt, of 2515 Will
shire boulevard, Los Angeles. Mrs.
Neustadt is just recovering from a re-
cent severe illness, and it was impossi-
BILE for her to attend the wedding had
it been held as previously planned, at
the Hotel Green in this city. Rev. Dr.
Day Of the First Congregational
church performed the ceremony and
united the two in the holy bonds of
matrimony. Among the presents re-
ceived by the bride was a substantial
check given by Colonel Green. The
check will amply cover the cost of fur
nishing the new home at which Mr..
and Mrs. Neustadt will reside after they
return from a two weeks tour in their
auto. They will be at home after that
time at 1926 Wiltshire boulevard.
Mrs. Stella De Long on Friday even-
ing became the bride of Mr.. Hans Mel
son. Both contracting parties were
residents of this city and will make 1t
their future home. The ceremony was
performed at the home OF the bride,
1905 Fair Oaks avenue.

Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Crandall of
this city. was quietly married Thurs
day evening to William H. Bauer Rev.

friends and relatives of the bride and
groom. The couple viii make their
home in Los Angeles. where the groom

So far as this case can be considered
a legitimate proceeding in equity, it
seems to be an attempt to have the

in New Hampshire, so far as 1 am

such a case will be carefully consid-

ABOUT MRS. EDDY
BY Gen. Frank S. Streeter, CounseI
for Mrs. Eddy

Early Saturday morning March p l
sent to Mrs. Eddy a copy of the bill
in equity as published, but not yet
served upon any of the defendants so
far as 1 am informed. l have since had
a long personal conference with her
at which this proceeding and matters
connected Herewith were fully dis
cusSed.
In common with her many friends
she believes that the initiative in these
proceedings was not taken by her son
or other relatives but by others who
in a markedly unusual manner and by
unique methods are undertaking un-
der the guise of court proceedings to
continue the persecution begun some
time ago.
From my conference with her at this
time, and on other recent occasions, l
am able to speak definitely and posi-
lively. Her clearness of mind and reso-
luton of purpose have been in no re-
spect impaired by her advanced years,
Her capacity to think clearly and to
deal accurately and justly with i'm
portant business affairs, has never been
more perfectly demonstrated than in
her conferences and acts within the
last two weeks, and in numerous busi-
ness letters in her own handwriting,
which / have received from her during
that time.
The amount of Mrs. Eddys property
has been grossly multiplied by rumor
and unfounded report. She Is not
possessed of large wealth, as the term
is used. Mrs. Eddy receives no income
from the church, nor from the pub
lication society connected with the
church. Her sole income for many
years has been from the copyrights on
her own books, and the amount from
this source has been grossly overesti-
mated.
Mrs. Eddy's business affairs have
been managed by herself, with the aid
of Mr. Frye, her devoted and loyal
servant, and under the oversight and
personal audit of another gentleman,
whose name has not been mentioned,
but who stands for ali that is honor
able and of good repute In financial
circles in Concord Accurate accounts
of all her property and investments, as
we'll as of her annual income and ex-
penditures, have been carefully kept
and frequently audited. The last audit
was in October 1906. None Of the de-
PENDANTS named, except Mr.. Frye. have
any connection with the management
of her property or investments or have
any knowledge whatever in reference
thereto, nor have any of said defend
ants ever received any property of Mrs.
Eddy which they hold in trust or other
wise, except in one instance for the
benefit of her relatives.
With reference to the report that
within a few days Mrs. Eddy has
placed In the hands Of trustees a large
amount of money, to be held and used
for the benefit of her son and her
grandchildren, / have nothing to say.

MAY SHIFT ALL
WARD LINES ON
VOTING BASIS
DiSpropOrtiOn Leads
to Movement
Sixth Ward Has 1894 Voters, While
Eighth Has Only 97s, Yet Rep
resentation In Council
Is Equal

Redivision of the wards of Los An
geles will be ordered soon If the plans
of certain councilmen go through.
Because of the growth of Los Angeles
and the shifting of population the
voters of the city have changed the
ward totals in an amazing manner.
Few persons even at the city hall
realize the lessons taught by the recent
election as bearing on ward boundaries.
These figures do not represent popua-
tion accurately, as there are many nom
voters and newcomers, but they are the
only guide available for redistricting.
For Instance, the Sixth ward, which
voted 1894 men, has but one representa-
tive in the council, while the Eighth
ward, which cast only 979 votes, has
one, too This basis of representation
it is pointed out, is unfair.
For the purpose of comparison the
following figures will be shown to the
council.
