WOMAN PAYS STRANGERS
BURIAL FEE BY MISTAKE
Sends Money to Inter a Brother
Who Is Living-Man with
Similar Name Buried

Believing her brother to be dead in
New York City, Mrs. M. G. Donnelly
of Los Angeles sent to the charities
department of that city money to pay
his funeral expenses. Using this
money, the New York authorities
buried the man they believed to be
Mrs. Donnelly's brother.
A few days ago, while she was still
grieving over her brothers death, Mrs.
Donnelly received letter stating that
he was alive and well. Now she has
notified the charities department that
unless it returns to her the money she
expended to bury stranger she Will
sue.
On June last, John Doyle, Mrs.
Donnellys brother, was admitted to the
City Home in New York City and was
discharged July IS. He gave as ref
erence the name of Mrs. Donnelly and
another sister who lives in Cincinnati.
There was another John Doyle in the
City Home at the same time. He
seems to have had no friends or rel
atives. He died July s.
Mrs. Donnelly was notified by the
city clerk that her brother was dead
and she sent money for the funeral
expenses. A little later she received
a letter from her brother, saying he
had recovered.

ARRANGING PROGRAM FOR
CITRUS MEMS MEETING.
Causes of Deterioration of Orch
ards and Crops Will Be
General Subject

J. w. Jeffrey, state commissioner of
horticulture, has announced that every
thing is in readiness for the state con-
vention of citrus fruit growers which
will be held at Pomona September 13
and IA.
Mr.. Jeffrey looks forward to a large
attendance and urges all citrus growers
to be present. In speaking of the work
to be talked over at the convention,
Commissioner Jeffrey said:
Broadly speaking, the discussions at
the conference will be confined to the
physical condition of citrus fruit groves,
eliminating as far as possible the eff
fects OF insect pests and considering
questions relating to plant propagation,
varieties, soil, physics. active diseases
and decadence of citrus trees from
climatic and other Interior causes.
DETERIORATION
I'm many citrus groves deterioration
has been expressing itself in barren
ness, in lack of health and Vigor and In
poor quality of fruit. The problems In
yolyed in these effects are of great
obscurity.- They are found In every To-
cality in the state. If they are not met
with wisdom and understanding the
citrus fruit business cannot remain
prosperous or our land values main
tained.
TT will be the business of the coming
conference to get together the sum of
the views and experiences of trained
observers, scientific investigators and
practical growers, and to unite in bust
nesslike council the factors able to
solve these obscure problems or at
least able to provide some plan for
their solution. To do this the order of
business and the discussion will be
directed toward results, and the elm
nation attempted of all matters that
may be narrow or valueless in their ap-
plication or whose consideration would
lead to no definite results.
MORE COMPLETE PROGRAM
"As soon as the order of business is
prepared more complete prospectus
of the conference will be published.
Men Of definite views, of valuable ex-
perience and of capacity to clarity and
determine will be expected to make this
meeting a success, and I hope a large
and helpful convention will assemble
to consider the problems now confront
ing some of our best citrus fruit CEN
ters 1 also ask that all citrus fruit
associations and Independent shippers
take official action in favor of this con-
ference and send delegates to properly
represent them. Every citrus fruit
grower is urged to attend"

Music Notes

susanna Rocamora, singer of popular
songs, has more than come into her
own in popularity since reaching Los
Angeles, and during her short stay of
only two weeks has made many friends
who are patrons of Levy's cafe through
her efforts. Her selections this week
ago Lucy Anne Lou" "Cuddle Up a
Little Closer" and, by special request,
THE Glow Worm," her closing number
of last week.
Rogers, Stewart and Elwood seem to
have lost none of their popularity in
being away several months. Their
voices are stronger and blend together
better than they did when here before.
Rogers, the basso of the trio. has a
remarkably low bass voice, and it was
he who succeeded Eugene Cowles as
the basso profundo of the Alice Nielsen
company when that organization was
in it's prime.
Their selection of I'm Happy All the
Time" won great favor from the large
audience that heard them on their
initial return performance. put on
Your Old Green Bonnet" Hes a Col
lege Boy" and several other numbers
We're highly appreciated.
La Solita, the Spanish dancer, is an
attraction above the ordinary. She is
q dainty comedienne and was well re-
ceived in Spanish novelty songs and
dances. She has q rich soprano of un-
usual power and sweetness. She was
premiere dancer at the Metropolitan
Opera house in New York city for one
year. after which several years were
passed on the Orpheum circuit.
Bob Albright, who is heralded as the
Man Melba," was unable to appear
on account of a cold contracted since
reaching Los Angeles Monday morning.
He comes heralded as a marvel, as he
sings baritone or soprano with the
greatest of ease. Patrons of the cafe
will have an opportunity of hearing
him this afternoon if his condition is
improved.
The Kammermeyer orchestra has ar
ranged another one of it's artistic pro-
grams.
