The Musical w rId
ny Genevrn JOhnston~- Bishop

TIVE orchestra, numbering twenty-four
pieces and soloists, left Los Angeles
N for Claremont, where they give the
elijah" tonight Then the entire chorus
of 105 voices, orchestra and same soloists
repeat the Elijah on Saturday night
at Simpson auditorium. Prof. Bacon de-
serves much praise for the venture and
fine house will greet them Saturday
night. Already the tickets are going
very fast.
1t is only occasionally that such a
giant oratorio as the Elijah" should be
attempted. The work demands artists
OF great ability anC unless all the de-
tails can be carried out the oratorio fails
to impress an audience.
The Choral union of Pomona college,
supported by eminent soloists, accom-
panied by full professional orchestra, will
sing Mendelssohn's masterpiece. the
"Elijah," Saturday night, January IS, at
Simpson auditorium. Arnold Krauss is
concert master of the orchestra, the en-
tire production being under the direction
of Prof. f. A. Bacon. No expense Is be-
ing spared by the Choral union to give
the music loving public a thoroughly
satisfying edition of this sublime work.
The basso who VII sing the title role.
is the distinguished oratorio singer, Her
bert Witherspoon, one OF the few sing
great part. Madame Genevra tombstone
Bishop is one OF Americas greatest ora
torio sopranos, with wonderful dramatic
ability and breadth of Interpretation, and
has been selected for the soprano part.
Mrs. Norma Robbins, well known as a
singer OF charming personality and ex-
ceptional ability. has been engaged for
the contralto part. Abraham Miller will
sing the tenor. i mis- artist is well known
about los AnatA1es from, his sinoinO u,
1.-THE Messiah" and other oratorio works.
His part in elijah" just fits the man.
and his singing Of 1t will be an inspira-
ton. Several special rehearsals have
been held with the chorus and full or
ches.ra, so that finished work is assured.
Mrs. s. H. Blakeslee will preside at the
organ For five years past the Choral
union has been under the leadership OF
Prof. Bacon; several concerts have been

SUES NOTARY
FOR DAMAGES
WOMAN CLAIMS CONFESSION is
ALL A FRAUD
Long Beach Man Alleged to Have
Been Party to swindIe by Which
Wife Is Made to Falsely
Admit lnfideIIty

An alleged confession. which is said to
have been obtained by fraudulent means
and in which woman is made to de-
clare that she had been untrue to her
husband. is the basis for a suit now be-
ing tried before a jury in Judge Bord-
wells court
The suit is that of Mrs. Telma G. Me
bel against S. A. Sanderson, a notary of
Long Beach, who, she says. published
the alleged confession and from whom
$4,000 damages are asked.
The purported confession has already
resulted In two divorce cases and two
interlocutory DEGREES being granted, the
first later being set aside.
The story dates back to November, 1906,
when Mrs. Niebel was the secretary of
the committee on coincidence of the
knights and Ladies of Security. Her
husband was secretary of the same COM
mittee. 1t was his duty to put into type
written form the resolutions adopted
when a member of the organization died.
Mrs. Niebel declares she gave her hus-
band a copy of a resolution to be put
into shape for mailing. Three copies
were needed-one to be sent to the fam
lily of the deceased, one to the head coun-
ell and one to the archives of the So
ciety.
Alleges Fraud in Papers
She says he brought back three papers
for her signature, and after reading the
first she attached her name to all of
them. She left them with her husband,
she says, and believes one of them to
have been a statement in which she was
made to say that she was not true to
him.
Mrs. Niebel declares that on December
II. 1906. Sanderson maliciously gave in
writing his jurat as notary public, to
which his name was signed and his seal
affixed. BY this, she says, Sanderson
meant that she had subscribed and sworn
to the confession, which she says is false.
Within the next three months she says,
Sanderson maliciously published the
statement and Jurat and declares that
his actions were defamatory and libeIous.
On January o. 1907, Nlebel was granted
an introductory decree of divorce by
Judge Smith and the alleged confession
played an important part in the trial.
Later, it is said the decision was set
aside Three months later Judge Conrey
granted divorce to Mrs. Niebel on the
ground of cruelty.
A motion to dismiss the action was be-
ing heard by the court yesterday when
adjournment was taken.

NEW SUIT FILED AGAINST
BREWERY COMPANY'S HEAD

Another suit was yesterday filed in the
superior court against Frank A. Hanson,
president of the Humboldt Brewing COM
pany of Arizona, charging fraud and de-
ceit. Other suits have been filed against
the same defendant on similar charges.
Frank X. Neher is the complainant in
the suit filed yesterday. He claims to
have purchased $50 shares of the stock of
the brewing company, giving $1,000 and
real estate in payment. Later, he de-
clares, he discovered no such corporation
was in existence and that Hanson mis-
represented facts.

MOVE 10 URBITA
WOULD ClRCUMVENT FANCHlSE
TO BE TAX
Stockholders of Telephone Company
Urge Technical Removal of Head
quarters as Means of
Economy

Certain stockholders of the Home Tele-
phone company have planned surpris-
ing coup in the proposed removal OF
headquarters of the company to Uroita
Springs, San Bernardino county.
Advertisements will be inserted calling
for a meeting to change the articles OF
incorporation to that effect.
The object is understood to be that
such removal will do away with the
necessity of paying the franchise to be-
tax in Los Angeles since the main office
will technically be in another county II
removal carries.
Astute legal advice has been given those
favoring the plan, 1t is said, and Assessor
Walter Mallard will lose much revenue on
paper il the idea is generally followed
by corporations.
AS one leading attorney put 1t:
"If the company specifies in its articles
of incorporation that the main office IS
at such and such a place, maintains
clerks there, keeps the stock books there
and holds its annual stockholders meet
ings there it is legally possible to do just
such a thing as these stockholders con-
temp tie, think"
