ARE YOU IN ARREARS ?

One of the strange things in the life
of a newspaper man is the fact that
some people become angry when he
wants them to pay their subscription.
In the past two months a large mum.
ber of subscribers have needed our re-
quest to pay up, coming to the Exposi-
tor office and settling in a graceful
manner and paying for a year in ad-
vance, Others have sent in enough cash
to square up and extend their subscrip-
tion for six months or year. On the
other hand few of our subscribers or.
dered the paper stopped because we
sent them a statement of their indebt-
edness. We have come to the conclus-
ion that it is useless trying to humor a
certain class who cannot stand being
dunned.
a large number of our subscribers to
whom we mailed statements not long
since will hear from us again sometime
this month or next. 1t is necessary
that we have the money in our posses
sion and at our command to meet OBJ
legations in our business.
To those who are still in arrears and
have failed to answer our polite invita-.
ton to either come in or send in the
amount that will square them on the
Expositor subscription books we wish
to say as before, we need the coin, and
unless they pay something within the
next ten days, it will be necessary to
write them a personal letter calling at
tention to the financial situation as it
appears at present.

LONG AND SHORT
MEN BACK AGAIN
WELL KNOWN HIGHWAYMEN
RETURN
Police Say They Are Advance Agents
of Safe Crackers and Events
Bear Out This Asser-
ton

Reports of holdups during the last
few nights have caused the police to
believe that the two robbers, the long
and short men, who operated in Los
Angeles during the latter part of Mo-
vember and December last year, have
returned to this city and are again
carrying on their old line.
These men were never captured by
the police despite the fact they sue
ceeded in pulling off q number of dar-
ing robberies and several times mar
rowly escaped arrest The entire de-
tective force was on their trail for sew
eral weeks, and were so far successful
that it was learned where the men
lived. Officers were detailed to arrest
them, but when they. reached the house
it was found that the men had flown.
At that time it was claimed by the
detectives that the men were advance
agents of gang of yeggmen who were
on their way to the coast and that they
were simply holding up persons in
order to obtain funds to pay their ex-
penses until bigger thieves arrived and
pulled off big jobs. Soon after these
men ceased their operations reports of
safe crackings were received from near
by towns and 1t Is now looked upon as
an established fact that the two men
were connected with the gang which
robbed the different banks and post
offices in surrounding towns and were
seen attempting to rob the postoffice at
Santa Monica. Since that time they
have not been seen and no reports of
bank robberies have been received.
Description of Men
The two men who are now operating
here are described as follows: One man.

CROWD HEARS
SACRED CANTATA

Crowded from orchestra to dome with
a crowd that waited for over an hour
to enter the building, Temple Baptist
church entertained it's thousands of
worshipers last night with a sacred
cantata of beauty and musical merit
far above the ordinary. With the ex-
ception of single hymn and chapter
of scripture the meeting was turned
over entirely to Professor Bruce Cor
don Kingsley, the musical director, and
his trained chorus of seventy voices.
The great Temple organ, with its hun
dred or NOR stops that permitted of
every tone and modulation desired by
the organist, lent magnificent aid to a
chorus that had been trained almost
to perfection. @
The cantata was Gauls beautiful
"Holy City" It's four arias gave each
of the soloists chance to show his or
her voice to good advantage. OF the
soil the best rendered was the soprano
number, "These Are They Which Came
Out of Great Tribulation." Miss Bes-
sic Ives Harrison sang this number.
Roland Paul sang the tenor solo, MY
Soul Is Athirst for Cod" with much
expression. Miss Longstreet had the
beautiful "Come, Ye Blessed of My
Father" Mr.. Cole sang the basso, "a
New Heaven and a New Earth
Chorus, trio and quartet Wed with
each other in grandeur and majesty,
and the service was truly a song SER
mon.
During the intermission Professor
Kingsley played some of the beautiful
incidental music to the midsummer
Nights Dream" Of Mendelssohn. He
rendered the well-known overture with
all the magnificence of the orchestral
effects which the organ can produce.
Suppe's "Poet and Peasant was rem
dered with no less skill and beauty.
Every seat in the great auditorium
was occupied long before the hour for
the beginning of services and more than
thousand others who came later were
turned away. Hundreds stood in the
lobby hoping for a chance to enter,
among them some who had waited from
Z o'clock to get seat, but could not.
DR.. Kingsley's musical services, like
DR.. Burdette's sermons. are attracting
hundreds more than even the great
auditorium can accommodate.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-04

There is a certain feminine attribute
called Intuition" that is supposed to
make the because" of woman more
potent than all the logic and reason of
the male half of humanity. The sixth
sense is supposed to arise from her
finer and more spiritual nature, which
gives woman a clearer insight and
more intimate knowledge of the un-
seen and unknowable than mans
grosser nature merits.
This has always been one of the pet
theories of Miss Nellie Beaumont, the
serious comedienne appearing this
week at the Orpheum. Miss Beaumont
has always held that woman's intu-
ition is the surest guide in every phase
of human activity. But her faith in
fminine omniscience received rude
jolt a few lays ago.
The beginning of this tale goes back
about two months. The place was
London, Ontario, Canada, and the hour
between IL and IL of cold winter
night. The scene is the Grand Trunk
depot and the dramatic personae are
the actress and another. Enter Miss
Beaumont to catch her train for Chi
cago. She discovers the "other" in
sufficiently clad, crying, curled up on
a bench trying to sleep.
| GluIcT HOW IIle lElIl1IllllG lnlulllOu
Miss Beaumont compassionately ques-
| tions the "other" and learns that he is
an orphan whose father died when he
was a baby. The mother married a
second time and last summer the step
father drove him into the streets, since
when he had lived as best he could
He played a small part in "a Ride for
Life" and the company went to pieces
in a nearby town, leaving the lad with
out friends, money or clothes in a
strange land.
| Now a man would probably have paid
| no attention to the "other" or would
| have found many reasons against be-
! lieving his heartrending tale. But the
feminine intuition" prompted Miss
Beaumont to play the part of kind
Providence to the homeless waif.
Following these promptings she
bought him ticket for New York,
where he claimed to be at home, and
gave him letter to theatrical agent
there, also ten-dollar bill for a heart
raiser. Then, feeling that she had done
a good deed and that the world was the
better for her midnight adventure, the
actress took her train for Chicago, and
thence came on. her westward way,
reaching Los Angeles and the Orpheum
a week ago.
The pathetic little drama which thus
opened in Canadian town had sew
eral other and subsequent scenes, all
of which were enacted in New York,
| and are thus tersely narrated in a let
ter which reached Miss Beaumont at
the Orpheum here last week:
Dear Miss Beaumont
Your youthful protege duly arrived.
You are indeed an angel of mercy. Your
letter so strongly appealed to me that
even against all reason 1 had your kid
cleaned up and set him to work in my
O1lCe. EOr time all went we'll fhat

the boy and began to trust him.

of the most striking features in con-

Arthur Let's recently purchased the
beautiful animal, which is now well on

makes his entry in the nature of

dering what the outcome may be.
Such journey as is involved may

but at that the animal should figure
strongly. The dog comes from Europe
with countless ribbons to his credit.
