LUNDHI NOT GUILTY, SAYS JURY

In the case of the state versus AL
fred Lundhi, the jury brought in a
verdice Of not guilty, Saturday even
ing, after deliberating five hours.
The case occupied the time of the
court all week, two days being spent
in selecting the jury, and four days
on the trial.
A year ago he was tried, convicted
and sen fenced to imprisonment. The
case was carried to the supreme
court and he was granted a new
trial.
Lundhi shot a Greek named Pap
pas in the Paradise valley in May,
1915, and he always claimed that he
merely protected his life against an
agressor, who declared he would
shoot, but who flinched and turned
as he, Lun dhi, fired.

MISS TERRELL TO BE HEARD
AT THE SAN CARLOS

A number of prominent musicians
and music lovers have been fortunate
in receiving invitations to a private
hearing at the auditorium of the San
Carlos hotel on Saturday, Nov. "a,
at which Miss Terrell, the distin-
guished American soprano, will be
introduced
Miss Terrell enjoys the distinction
of being the first singer in the world
to sing over the long-distance tele-
phone from Boston to San Francisco.
The melody was "The Star SpangIed
Banner" :.
Miss Ferrell's voice is a lyric So
prano, clear, true and flexible, and
of exquisite beauty, especially in the
upper register. She sings with flu
ency and ease, with feeling and ex-
preston. To her finished vocal art
she adds a graceful stage presence
and charming manner.
We understand that Miss Terrell
will, in some way, attempt the seem
ingly impossible feat of singing
duets with herself. -.
