HEARST CALLS ANTIQUE A FAKE.
Say. EIixabethnn Chimncypiccc
bought Of Charles wns Fraud.

An allegation by William r. Hearst
that he was defrauded IN the purchase OF
a supposed El2ahethan chimncypiece for
which he paid $4,000 to Charles OF Lon
don, antique dealers with AN office at 7ls
Fifth avenue. IL made In sui filed in
the Supreme Court yesterday oy Mr.
Hearst TO recover $4,000 on the ground
that the chimneyplece Is not genuine and
is worth only 81 0O0. The article was
described by the dealers as Every fine
carved stone Elizahethan chimneypiece
bearing the arms and supporters Of the
Worshipfull Company Of Tallow Chan
dlers,'
Mr. Hearst alleges that the dealers as
sured him that his chlmneypiece was really
made during the reign OF Queen Eliza
beth and that no copy OF the piece would
be sold. whereas Mr.. Hearst SAYS that n
similar chimneypiece was sold to a resi-
dent Of Minneapolis and came through the
port free OF duty because II was described
ms an antique, whereas he had to pay duty
on his because it was not represented rs
an antique
The suit OF Mr. Hearst against tho
antique dealers was filed after they had
sued him to recover n balance of SlS,155
due on antique purchases for four years
costing S46,205.

Miss de Trcy.uu divided her concert
into three periods. those Of Mile. ID,
Maupin G.ouis XIV. Jenny Lind and
herself, Luily Martini, Young and
Carey contributed delightful numbers to
the first part The hest music In tho
second WAS that of three scandinavian
folk songs. The proch variations might
have been spared and the mad scene
from M,yerbeers Camp In Slesia" was
not essential. In the third part were
Wyman. Dell Acqua, Carmen sylvia and
Strauss
Miss TrcvIne looked well In her three
costumes In the French garden setting
OF the stage. Her accompanist. Florence
Mcmillan. was also CARRIED for tn. ne

songs the soprano showed both taste and

THE Little Angel Of CANYON Creek
IA made from the book OF the same name
by the Rev Cyrus Townsend Erady. Il

ten-year old orphan, who leaves the train
when on his way to a California farm
and finally arrives in q Colorado town.
His mother had taught him To b" n good
hoy and his good influence on the miners
provides the premise for the action of the
play. II Is typical motion picture play
OF Western life and pleased the audience
The other feature play, Two Women
told n story OF the unfaithfuness OF the
hero's FIRST wife and the LOYALTY of the
second who belonged to the woods Of
