HOLD REGULAR MEETING.

The music committee of the Ham
mond Womans club met yesterday at
ternoon at the home of the chairman,
Mrs E. S. Cooper, 1872 Carroll street,
for the regular meeting. The meeting
was one of the most successful and had
the largest attendance Of any meeting
of the club year. The study for the

ing program was given. The next
meeting will take place Feb. 5. al
though the study has not been decided.

THE FOUR HuNTINGs.

If the Four Huntings ever go to Mex
leo to play an engagement they are
reasonably certain of living up to their
advertisements and thereby preventing
trouble with the authorities in so far
as advertising and presenting four
members of the Hunting family at each
performance In other words they are
playing almost a certainty. Down IN
the Republic of Mexico a representa-
tive of the government attend each per-
Torrance and with program and adver-
tisements in hand sees that everything
announced to take place does appear on
the stage. If the management should
fail to have just what is pictured or
claimed either verbally or in print it is
liable to a fine which is always ad-
ministered because Mexican laws are
rigidly enforced and the authorities
are particularly severe with managers
of entertainment The reason the
-Four Huntingsp are practically i'm
mune from punishment on the ground
that they might not have the adver-
tised four is because they are actually
five Huntings Lew, Tony, Mollie and
John Hunting are best known to the
public but there is also small Hunt
ing. Bob, who delights the children
and many of their elders. If through
illness one Hunting cannot appear Bob
Is always on hand and hence four
Huntings will always be found on the
stage. In their musical vehicle The
Fool House" there is another curious
circumstance. John H. Hunting plays
the role of Colonel Ipswich Jones, su-
lperintendent of the ansane asylum. He
has a daughter in the play, Daisy
Jones. In real life they are father and
daughter and. in fact, the five Huntings
are all members of one family. The
Four Huntings appear at the Towlt
opera house. Tuesday. Jan IS
