and much credit is due him for his
efforts musically.
Mr.. Goode studied in Chicago with w.

1t is an opportune time, the coming
of Teresa Carreno, who has always
been a person of exceptional interest;
strictly American, she introduces her.
self to Los Angeles on Washington
birthday in a most patriotic fashion.
Carreno holds a unique position in art;
since her first return to this country.
there has been no time when her name
has not been a household word of
America, and al extremely fascinating
woman and artist, 1t has been said that
she is one of those richly endowed and
satisfying women whom to know is
culture, and to know intimately is a
liberal education.
The Dominant club will introduce her
to their many f'ends on Saturday at
ternoon at Simpson auditorium, where
she plays a matinee, as they are to
entertain her at dinner in Hollywood
Immediately following. Neither the
personal beauty of this wonderful wo-
man nor the beauty of her art have
faded; on the contrary her charms
have mellowed like the tone Of a glori-
Gus violin that comes to its fitness as
the years pass. Her musical talent is
known throughout the music centers
of Europe equally as well as to her
admirers in America. She enjoyed a
most sensational success everywhere
she has appeared, and her triumphs
in England, Germany and Australia are
unlimited

UNUSUAL POINT OF LAW
IS RAISED IN WILL CASE
Placing of Signature of Legator OPP
posIte Those of Witnesses Leads
to Question of Validity
of the Document

An unusual point in law was raised
yesterday in Judge Rives' court when
the validity of the will of Joseph
Chamberlain, who died recently leav-
ing an estate valued at $4,000 was
questioned.
The will was drawn properly, but
Chamberlain's signature was placed
opposite those of the witnesses and
after the attesting clause.
The law provides that signatures must
be affixed at the end of the testament
tary part of a will, and the point was
raised. not with the idea of making a
contest but to have the court pass on
the legality of the document.
The estate is left for the children of
William Chamberlain, a son of the de-
ceased, who is named as trustee, The
matter was taken under advisement.

DEFENSE SAYS WITNESSES WE'RE
NOT MENTIONED
Trial Of Ocean Park Man EnIlvened
by Woman Who FaInts on the

ing Testimony

The taking of testimony in the trial
of bennett Childs, charged with ille-
gal registration at Ocean Park, was
Interrupted late yesterday afternoon,
when Attorney E. A. Meserve for the
defense renewed a motion to have the
indictment set aside on the ground
that the names of witnesses who had
testified before the grand jury did not
appear on the indictment.
The motion was presented following
the testimony of Thomas Owens Evans,
proprietor of the Decatur hotel at
Ocean Park, who. said he had been
called before the grand jury and had
answered questions which, he believed
concerned illegal registration.
Hartley Shaw, chief deputy district
attorney interposed an objection and
the attorneys for Childs were asked
for authorities which they said would
be presented this morning. The court
then sustained the objection, without
prejudice, however. and an argument
on the motion will be heard when
court convenes today.
Some excitement was caused during
the morning session when Mrs. Amelia

water. She took sip, placed the glass
near her on the bench and as Horton
turned away she collapsed.
Attorney Meserve carried the wom-
an into the chambers of Judge Conrey
where physician among the specta-
tors attended her and she was able
to leave the court house within halt
hour.
Girl a Good Witness
About a dozen witnesses testified
yesterday, many of them to establish
the fact that Childs maintained a resi-
dence at 927 Stanford avenue for a
year or more in 1906 and 1907. Among
these witnesses was Mourel Taylors
a schoolmate of Childs' daughter. jean
cite. The witness is about IL years
old and her answers were given with
frankness in striking contrast to the
statements made by number of other
witnesses. She said she knew Childs
lived at home because she saw him
there on July 4, setting off fireworks
for his little daughter.
Louis Duprey and Charles j. Taylor
clerks at the Decatur hotel at Ocean
Park and Thomas Owens Evans, pro-
prietor of the hotel testified that they
had been called before the grand jury
and examined by that body.
H. r. Tallman, also of Ocean Park
made a similar statement. These wit
nesses were called by the prosecution
In an effort to show that Childs had
registered at the Decatur hotel on
August 80 and remained but short
time.
Following the testimony of Evans
Attorney Meserve presented q motor
that the indictment be set aside on the

Bisbee daily review., 1908-12-04

In entering the basement window,
which was through an opening not
more than foot and q half wide, the
burglars dropped duwn onto what
they thought was solid ground But
there happened to be a stack of empty
paper cartoons directly under the win
dow. and the yeggmen got tumble
to the hard cement floor that was
worth the price of admission. No def
mite clew had bean discovered as to
the identity of the robbers and II is
thought that they plsned the work so
that they could catch freight going
west soon after the explosion.
AS there have been a number OF
similar robberies in east Texas during
the past week, the jcCrneynfen cracks

thought to be a part of this same

Safes Are not Safe.
T. z. Shelton, the El Paso safe

being only fireproof and not any pro
lection against burglars. He says that
at this time of year the safe crack
ers are abroad in the land, especially
in the southland, and all money should
be deposited in the banks before clos
ing in the evening, as the safes are
not protection against burglars.

Douglas Man Spends His Va
cation Looking Over the
New Copper Camp,

DOUGLAS, Dec 5.--(Speciai.) -
Charley Connel is deyoting his va
cation from his duties as immigration
inspector to looking over the new min
ing district known as CORTLAND and
has already become interested with
others of this city in several promis-
ing properties on which development
work has already been started. MIR.
Connell returned yesterday from the
new district where he had been Tor
two days with Ed G-indell. Mr.. Grin
del is expected to return to the city
today.
Mr.. Connesl says that Courtland
camp now is in a very primitive stage
and that it reminds him of some OF
the camps during the early days OF
the territory The hotel consists OF
two rooms, one above the other. On
the ground floor is the kitchen and
dining room and the floor above is
for sleeping. All the guests sleep IN
the same room and there were seven
teen occupants of this room one night
while Mr.. Connell was there. The
sleeping apartment is reached by a
stairway which goes up on the out
side of the house.
The Leadville Development com
pany has been organized in this city
and it has already secured a bond
and lease on seven claims adjoining
and near the C. & A. ground. Be.
sides these seven claims the new com
pany also has secured two other prom
Using claims by location and develop
ment work has already been started
and some ore encountered.
Recently the c. & A. started a
shaft on one of the claims included
in the Brown property and at a depth
of thirty feet good copper ore was
encountered and he shaft has now
proceeded thirteen feet into the ore.
/ This property adjoins property own
ed by Young Brothers, their COM
pany being known as the Great West
ern.
The Copper Queen company has
just installed $50 b. p. boiler on
the Casey group, or which bond
was recently taken. Other develop
ment machinery will be on the ground
in few days and it is expected that
active development of property will
start on this well known property by
the first of the new year.
The Calumet & Arizona has a two
compartment shaft down so feet on
the Maid of Sunshine claim and north
of this shaft they are working with a
diamond drill and have explored to a
depth of 262 feet. The main workings
of the c. & A. company is now being
done on the claim known as the Ger.
mania No. 1, where large ore bodies
have been developed by shafts and
drifts. This company is now prosecut.
ing work in half dozen places in the
district.
In the CORTLAND district Mr.. Con
nell found more than $50 men at work
and estimates the present population
of the camp at 300 people. By the
first of the year Il is expected that
more than two hundred miners will
be employed by the various COM
panies in the district.
There has been no townsite laid of
yet and it is not expected that there
will be In the near future. The COM
panies as yet only hold the ground
by lease and bond and until complete
titles to the property are secured
there will be no .Ilding leases given
