Brewing Company, which was some
time ago thrown into the hands OF re-
ceiyers.
This preliminary TO the finale of the
Securitv's tempestuous history came
with the filing in the Civil District
Court by the Commercial-Germanla
Trust & Savings Bank Of petition
praving for the execution of a mort
gage which il holds on all the property
of the Security. The mortgage is for

interest of 200 first mortgage gold
bonds of the brewing company for ST.
600 each. dated Dec. /, 1904, with forty
interest coupons attached to each
bond, each coupon being for $50, and
PAYABLE on the first days of June and
December each year, commencing with
June /, 1905.
! II is shown that all of the coupons
on the bonds up to and including those
due and payable June l, 1912, have
been paid, and ten of the bonds have
been paid in full each year from 1903
up to 1912. but there was default on
| the coupons due Dec. l, 1872, and on
the bonds due the same date, and on
the written request of the holders OF
more than one-third of the bonds out
standing. the bank, as trustee, has de
clared them all due and payable imme-
diately, under the terms of the con-
tract. The brewing company has fail
ed to pay its taxes, in violation of the
mortgage terms. Because of these
facts executory process is prayed for,
directing the civil sheriff TO sell the
entire property of the brewing COM
pany at auction for cash to the highest
bidder as a going concern.

Charles ]. Hamitzer. The new opera
offers Miss Scheff a delightful role
that of Mitzi. the little devil of the
family, who conspireS to marry off hel
three elder sisters so that a handsome
young officer can then propose to her
it being a Hungarian custom that the
eldest unmarried daughter must ac
