CONTEST IN COURT OVER EDICT OF
 MOTHER CHURCH
Special from United Press.)

New York, Oct 11.-There is every indication to-day that Mrs. Augusta Stetson, the leading figure in the First Church of Christ. Scientist. and SIX teen of the practitioners of the church who were recently deposed by the trustees of the mother church in Bos. ton will contest in court the edlct or the Boston church as a result or Whlcn the local church may become elther an outlaw organization or serious rival of the Boston church.
 That Mrs. Stetson and the deposed practitioners are still in high faVor with the congregation of the First Church was demonstrated yesterday when they were given what appeareu an ovation by the members. notwlth- standing the fact that only two days before had come the Boston edlct that the practitioners were not regular ana were practicing in violation or the real tenets of Christian Science.
 If the trouble is carried to court the matter of practice and teaching in the First Church will likely be threshed out, including forms of alleged mis- practice Even those members Of the First Church who are in accord with the action of the Boston Church ad- init that the First Church building has been dedicated to religious uses and It might be necessary to go into court to settle the contention of Mrs. Stet- sons opponents that her teachings are not those of Christian Science and so attempt to deprive her of the use of the church.

THE SEMBRlCH' CONCERT
Subscribers Sale of Seats Begins Tomor.
 rOw-PnbIic Sale Thursday.

Tomorrow morning at o'clock the active members and subscribers to the Wednesday Afternoon Musical Club, holding identification cards. will be en- ab1ed to secure seats for the Sembrich concert which will be gwen at Jack sons theatre, Tuesday evening, Oct. 19. This sale of seats is only for those persons who hold Identification cards. The sale for the general public will not commence until Thursday morning at g o'clock.
 Since announcement was made a few days ago of Mime. Sembrich's includ- farewell tour of America. the subject has been much discussed in local music circles. and the greatest en- thusiasm has been evinced. It is safe to say that the trip which Loudon Charlton, the prima donnas s manager, is now arranging, will be epoch-mak- ing in more respects than one. It will cover the entire country, and prob ably Cuba and Mexico as we'll. but owing to the extended area to be visited and the limited number of en- gagements available. it is obvious that many cities will be disappointed. Bos- ton. Chicago and New York will ab- sorb at least eight of the concerts which Mime. Sembrich has agreed to give, leaving a comparatively small number for other sections. That there will be the keenest competition among cities of the second class to secure the honor. is apparent to anyone familiar with concert conditions in America. The opportunity offered this city is one that cannot be passed light ly for it means that local music lov- CTS. through the efforts of the We'd nesday Afternoon Musical Club will be able to hear the most famous soprano of the times.
 If Madame Sembrich were one of the familiar type of prima donnas, of which several notable examples might be mentioned, to whom concert tour appeals as a last resort after a les sening of vocal gifts has been follow ed by loss of prestige in the metro polls, her proposed visit to this city would not be matter of such just concern. But, according to every trustworthy authority, she has never in her long career sang more perfect Iy than at present. Graceful pretty, and sweetIy feminine as she is her self, her voice is as pure and rich and beautiful as if it's possessor were still in her teens, while her use of it has grown surer and more mellow with each years experience. The queen of the operatic and lyric stage, Mime. Senlbrich is without a peer.
