"Cockade City"

most interesting contest over q
will Is being waged in the Hastings
Court OF the city of Petersburg, Va
by the heirs at law Of Mrs Kate E
Lowry, who died December 2, 1926
1t seems that Mrs. Lowry had pre-
viously been under the care of DIR
Alexander, but later secured the ser
vtce8 OF DR.. James Benjamin Darden
She became paralyzed and was un
der the care OF a nurse, who in turn
was subject to the orders of DR. i.
Darden There arose a disagree
ment between Dr. Darden and the
Nurse and the latter made startling
charges against DIR Darden. After
Mrs. Lowry's death, 1T was found
that will had been drawn leaving
certain parcels of improved real
estate to relatives and even an inter
est TO the nurse. Other OF Mrs,
Kate E. LOwry's friends were left
500 each and the Oak Street A M

ceased was member was left ST.
900.
The rest and residue were left TO
her physician, DIR. James BENJAMIN
Darden 1t was later discovered that
the rest and the residue" would
amount to sum in excess of twenty
thousand dollars. Then the two
heirs at law, who reside now in
Hackensack, New Jersey came on
and began a fight to set aside the
will. Attorney Jacob Lovenstein and
Attorney r. H. Mann, the later the
former u, S. District Attorney repre-.
serted them.
Many witnesses were present De
cember 9th and the case was ad.
Journed over until December 14th.
Owing to the indisposition of
Judge Mullen, the Lowry case has
been postponed and may not be re
sumed until after the holidays.

"A singer, having made a success,

something which she has not done

THEATERS.
MAFzENAUER TO SING
: At GRAND NEXT WEEK

Being a prima donna isn't altOgeth-
er life of ease, as Margaret Mat
zenauer, the Metropolitan Opera Star
who sings here on Saturday, February
81, at the Grand theater, is ready to
testify.
MANY people think that an opera
singer has only to go through a per-
Torrance, receive applause and flow
ers, enjoy the adulation of admirers
and live the life of a member of roy
atty" says Nine. Matzenauer. ut
would be pleasant if that we're the
fact. | sometimes wonder how it
would feel to have nothing to do ex-
pect live the life of one of these fic-
titious creatures.
"But the prima donna Of today is
really professional woman. Although
her field is art, she is worker, and
she may not stop working. She IS
almost like an athlete, who may not
break training for very long lest he
lose his skill. The singer may not
loaf for many days at time without
getting out of practice. And she must
grow constantly.

DOUG MAC LEANS FIRST
PARAMOUNT STAR FARCE

He does the wrong thing at the
right time everytimel
In "Seven Keys to Baldpate," the
famous George M. Cohan comedy in
which Douglas MacLean opens at
the D & R theater on Thursday, the
comedian plays the role of the young
novelist who seeks the solitude of
Baldpate Inn to write a novel in
twenty-four hours. A band of crooks
seek the Inn at the same time. Gun
play, near-murder and general pan
demonium ensue.
And through it all Doug MacLean,
in the character of the writer, per-
sistently does the opposite of the
right thing at every opportunity.
Once established at the Inn, he
mistakes the real crooks for paid ac-
completes of his rival for the hand
of the girl. He refuses to believe
that they are shooting real bullets in
their battle to secure possession of
huge sum of money which ac-
cidentally falls into his pocket. When
they rush from the hotel in search
of the money, he merely closes the
door behind them; when they rush
back into the Inn in pursuit of the
man who has seized the prize, he
locks the door and locks them all in
the hotel with him again!
The climax of this inverted course
of procedure occurs when one of the
crooks apparently kills the girl ac-
complete. MacLean rushes in, seizes
the gun-and is promptly arrested
for murder and accused by the entire
band of crooks
