Ing hat I attend that meeting as a

/ regret TO be compelled to report
that owing to the conditions which 1
will hereafter state In this report. no

ton. As an educational matter. the
convention was a complete success.
some OF the ablost men from the
different parts OF the United States
p Canada attended. and addressed
the meetings upon different matters
directly connected with the develop
ment OF the Colorado river project.
The convention was honorcd by the
presence Of the Secretary OF the In
terror. Honorable A.. n. Fall. who
delivered an address which was OF
great benefit to the convention ba-
cause OF certain positive reference ne
made relative to the manner one 81

When the delegates arrived nt
Riverside, they R~scertalned that "a
situation existed which would likely
develop so as to be disastrous TO the

OPERATE RECITAL
THURSDAY EVENING.

The committees of the Ladies' Home

Benevolent Society are already begin
ming to feel very much encouraged
over the manner in which Pensaeolians
are taking up interest in the forthcom-
ing appearance OF Miss Evelyn Scot
ney at the new Pensacola High School
auditorium on next Thursday night at
500 p. m. There seems to be a realiz-
alton that the coming to our city of
Miss Scotney is not the usual Lyceum
affair, but means the appearance of
one Of the four great coloratura So
pranos on the operate stage. Though
Miss sScotney's name in this city is
probably not as well known as some
of the concert stars, the fact still re-
mains that she is in the operate world
one OF the very few noted sopranos
who have sung with Ceruso. Miss
Scotney's concert work is just a mat
ter Of the past two seasons. She has
always confined herself to grand opera
alone. Many Pensacolians who have
visited New York. recall her in roles
in the Metropolitan Opera Company,
and better still, she was one of the
outshining lights in the last seasons
