Twelve Year Old Steinway Upright Piano Brings $580 at Auction :::::: (From "The Music Trades") The value of a name, also quality, in a piano was shown at an auction sale in one of the. well known auction warerooms in New York city last Saturday. A Steinway piano, one of tho smallest file manufac tured by the Steinway house twelve or fifteen years ago, No. 85,802, brought $680. This was the auction of the furniture from a private house and was in the usual course of business of the auction house. When a second-hand piano over twelve years old will bring; a price liko this it certainly proves that name value and quality count for something to say nothing of what such second-hands represent In live assets.

Birkel Company Steinway, Cecil lan and Victor Dealers 345-347 South Spring Street Some Women OKI-: day last week I lie cable brought ii i from London new.s of the death of Lottie Collins. The an nouncement created scarcely more than a ripple ol Inte^ett. Who was Lottie Collins and why should her deatli lie chronicled? Thai was the query the newspaper telegraph edi tors put to themselves, and being un- able to answer it satisfactorily most ol them threw (hi- item on the II \ ■lit ;i short two decades agO Lottie Collins was the. Idol of the Krilish and American public, in a. ni^ht she sprang from an obscure position in one .if the London hails to fame, ami prosperity. The medium of her success was a silly sons, composed by Henry J. Say ers, a, performer In the old Thatcher's minstrels and which had not made any particular hit, until misb Collins chanced upon it ami sung it in Lon don. Within a weeu the pity was humming the ditty. Lottie Collins became the rage and "Ta-ra-ra faoom iv-ay" was heard oftener than "Rule Britannia." In a month the slnger'a salary jumped from $-0 a week to |600. Then Charles Frohman engaged her foi America at "Jiooo weekly, a tremendous salary for those days, and not to lie. sneezed at even now. Lottie Collins mad* her New York debut Baptember in, imil\ She had been loudly heralded and .she made good. Vaudeville wasn't so important then, and consequently Miss Collins did her "turn" between the acts of "Jane," a comedy running at that time at tho Standard theater. Subsequently ><lvi toured over ihe greater part of the counttry under trrohman management, and everywhere she proved a great Bucceas. An .i soii Ta-in-iH. iwimi D«-o.y" didn't amount to much, but as Hung by Lottie Collins It was a coup de the atre. When she Bang: 'Tin a blushing hud of Innocence, I'm not too \,,u\ and I'm not too Rood," she looked tho very picture of mis chievous girlhood, but hi a twinkling of her tip-tilled toes, In a swish of Silken skirts and a glimpse of silken hosiery ingenuous innocence was turned Into Ingenious deviltry; anil the dance which followed, with its explo sive "Boom De-ay" from tho baas drum, never railed to win enthusiastic plaudits. Later Miss Collins repeated her suc cess with another song-, "Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me a Bow-wow." Now she Is dead. She outlived her popu larity, however, and very few persons who read of her demise in the news papers even remembered who Lottie Collins WES. In private, life the iier former was Mi's. Samuel P. Cooney. She retired from the stage five years ago. Miss LOlllSfl (iaylord of Chicago bears the distinction of being too first brlda wooed and won i>y wireless tele graphy. Miss Oaylord, now Mrs. Wal ter P. nillingham, and whose home hereafter will ba Iti Honolulu, was mar rled the other day in Floronoe, Italy, tba reromony being performed nt the home of her uncle, Arthur M. Acton. Leading up to the marriage was a courtship replete with romance, nnd in which n certain Slfc'nor Marconi admin istered first aid to the little blind god of Love. With her inorTicr .Miss l^iylord de piirted from Chicago lsvjt September for a trip around the world. In Hon olulu she met Mr. pillingham. It was it case of mutual love at first Bight, hut tho Honolulu man. though inoßt assidu- OUS In his attentions, failed to ask the momentous question and the visitor sailed away, en route to Chicago. Then Mr. Dilllngnatn began to up braid himself for his hesitancy. Final ly he could wait no longer, and so In voked the aid of the most startling of modern Inventions—wireless telegra phy. A message Hashed across the waters to the fast receding- ship, and another message of Just one word flashed back. That word was "Fes." The aristocracy of art troubles itself not at all with family trees. Arbor culture makes no demand! upon its attention and conservation Is not taught In conservatories of music whatever you may have thought in the matter. One of the stars—the bright, partic ular star —of the Metropolitan opera company Is Minn. Olive Fremstadt. Like most of the great singers Mme. Fredstaclt comes from Kurope. Unlike most of them, however, Mme. Frem stadt came to this country in the steerage. Nowadays her press agents do not put much stress upon that fact. It's barely possible, indeed, they know nothing whatever about tt. The girl, a Scandinavian, went with Others of her kind Into the northwest, finally arriving at Minneapolis, which,, by the way. Is the third city of the world in point of Scandinavian popu lation, the first being Chicago and the second Stockholm. There she found a place as a servant in a family which had but one, and Olive Fremstadt's first employment in the Innd of her adoption Was the making of beds, the washing of dishes, simple cookery and sweeping. She was a devout young woman, and at once began to attend divine services at the Swedish taber- <>S ANGELES HKRALP: SIM)AY MORNING, MAY 8, 1010. him . There someone, discovered that she hud a voice. Then the Philharmonic club, a local musical organization, picked her up and gave, her \v|iat training was pos- Bible until the liny arrived when Olive Fremstadt, eager to go farther, could go no more unless she should go to Europe.! And that li just where ihe wont. The <hil> arranged detail* and i Hive wont abroad to continue her studies. When ihfl came back she Joined the Metropolitan forces! In Minneapolis there la a little, old lady, a widow now, who frequently Mays: . "(Hi, yes. Olive was a good girl. She whs happy and contented, and.she al ways sang over her work." Mine AHa'Nazlmova, the. day's most distinguished Interpreter of Ibsen's women, has Just declared that the great Norwegian has been woefully misunderstood. Doubtless you yourself may have bad some ouch suspicion after seeing one of the plays perform ed not quite to your liking. Hut you thought it was the actor who misun derstood. Not. so, Bays Nazimova. It Is the public, the great, stupid public, which doesn't recognise life when it sees it, and which insists upon reading into Ibsen's plays a false symbolism which the author never put into them. Mmr. Alia, you see, regards the white horse of Roemersholm as merely a white horse, nothing more. Witch flies are Witch lires. she pays, and the master builder's vertigo merely a phys ical disability by no means uncommon- Thus Nasltnova, and more power to her. Ihe ha« taken from our shoulders a great load. We, who have feared that we did not understand Ibsen, Who have been unable to prate learnedly of his "cryptic psychology," whatever that may be, now know that our fail ure to arrive was because we were. looking for landmarks which did not exist when, as a matter of fact, our destination lay in plain sight, straight ahead of us. That's always one diffi culty, you know. A man may miss a mountain while looking for the road to It which leads by a little red barn. In this ace of voluminous utterance Concerning the nature, the destiny, the rights and the wrongs of woman, there Is no writer in Europe whose opinions on the subjeot are regarded with such keen Interest as Ellen Key. An ardent advocate of perfect freedom for woman and believing that all opportunities for the complete development of her Individuality Should be open to her. Ellen Key nevertheless refuses to identify herself with the regular fem inist movement or even with any part of It, the suffrage movement, for In stance. She believes the chief mission of future womanhood lies in an enlight ened motherhood. Woman's endeavor should be not to become as much like man ns possible, but to develop to the fullest extent the truly feminine in her by freeing- horaelf from conventions and the moral shackles imposed on her by man, shackles which are arti ficial Because they are of man's mak ing and are unsulted to woman's na- The i'l™' WOmap of Ellen Key's dream is foreshadowed in her prose poem, "The Woman of the Future." In those days to come woman will be not more like man. but more unlike him. She will contribute a larger amount and a better quality of intellect to the world's mental storehouse than she does at present But her special femi nine service will be the refined and Spontaneous emotion which she will radiate about her in the future. These attributes will enable her to love bet ter, to educate her children better, to be a better companion to man, not by replacing, but by supplementing him. Tn n word, she will be of equal value with man in the scheme of things but not of like value. Humanity will be the gainer, because the womanly element now largely suppressed In the masculine regime will bo allowed to unfold Itself freely and enrich the world to the full limit of its worth. While Ellen Key does not accuse the feminine* of directly opposing such an ideal, and Is in sympathy with many of their objects, she does not think their methods conducive to the end she has in view. STANTON TO MAKE AUTO CAMPAIGN IN THE NORTH Candidate Will Be Gone from City About Two Months The long automobile campaign that Phil Stanton, candidate for the Re publican nomination for governor, Is to make in Northern California will be begun on Tuesday next, and arrange ments are being completed at his head quarters in the Broadway Central building for a unique and effective tour, that will take the candidate and his aids—X. K. Allen, tour manager, and Winfleld Hogaboom, publicity get ter—clear to the Oregon line and back. The candidate expects to be gona from Southern California at least eight weeks, and it is his intention to visit every place whore people are to b« found in all of the northern counties. The entire trip will be made In an automobile, equipped for the purpose, with every comfort and convenience possible for the tourists, and carrying a big load of campaign literature and supplies. . • Mr. Stanton has completed his pre liminary campaign in Southern Cali fornia, and expresses himself as highly pleased with results. He believes that he will receive a large majority of the votes cast in Southern California, and that the votes he will get in the north ern part of the state will be enough to nominate him. An immense amount of campaign llt eratura is being sent out from the Stanton campaign headquarters, and after his return to Southern California —about the middle of July—Mr. Stan ton's managers will plan a very active campaign for him In Southern Cali fornia. FATHER AND BROTHER HIDE GIRL AFFIANCED TO COUSIN Bench Warrant for Arrest of Swartfiguers Issued Georgo B. Swartflguer arid Thomas Q Swartflguer, father and brother of Marietta Bvvartflguer, whom they are charged with hiding in Los Angeles to prevent her marrying her cousin, Ed ward 8 Swartflguer of St. Helena, failed to appear in Judge Bordwell's court yesterday to explain why they should not free the girl. Deputies who attempted to serve subpoenas on them at 3811 Vermont avenue Friday night, in ah application for a writ of habeas corpus, found that they had flown, taking the girl with them. -. " An order for the arrest of the father and brother on a bench warrant was issued by Judge Bordwell yesterday, and deputies from the sheriff's office took up the search., Mere Men BACK in Ohio, just now, they sire talking of niakhiK Nick Long woi'tb governor. it Isn't bad talk, cither. LongWOrth has a lot of things in his favor, in oongrei he has Insurged n little when inaurglng was good and that won't hurt him .: bit. Regarding the Rooaevelt pom i< s, he ■ tand ■. o{ course, in loco son In and that won't hurt him, either. Per sonaly he's healthy, papular and a good mixer. Most people even forget to re member that he's a. millionaire. Friends of Mr. LongWOrth say his candidacy would win the enthusiastic support of every bahllicado.l man in the state. That's not to be despise,|, for Ohio boasts many men who, like Mr. Longworth; haven't enough M:tir on the top of. their c.raniums to disturb an invalid Hy out roller skating or to demonstrate the theory of capillary at tratejon. This billiard ball buttress. however, hasn't always been a source Of pride with the Ohio statesman. Once It humiliated him dreadfully. That was when he was t roupinpr around the world with the Taft party. One sunny day the ciiptain of the consort hailed the boss sailor of the Tan steamer and said: "Repeat' thai heliograph; The oper ator got nil balled up." "Haven't been hellographing," was the reply. '- i« "Then," came the request from the consort, "will you kindly ask Mr. Longworth to put on his cap," However, that's almost forgotten now, and it Isn't important In Ohio, anyway. There are people who will tell you that Ohio is a doubtful state this year. If that's so, Ijongworth would seem to be the logical candi date of the Republican , party— lf he will run. He's friendly with every body, mid within the past lew years they've begun to take him seriously, which they never had done before. However, he wants to stay In politics, chiefly because that's what his wife wants, and if Ohio seems a bit too "doubtful" It Is likely that Mr. lung worth will continue to represent his district in congress. That seat is his as long as he wants it. The Demo crats couldn't pry' him loose, even if they possessed Archimedes' lover and the fulcrum for which Archy sought. There's the making of an Important malefactor of great wealth In 13-year old Harry Spindle, who was recently taken in hand by the New York Children's society, following his con fession that he had kidnaped himself, terrorized his parents with "Black Hand" letters and then, when they had failed to produce the money demanded, had Invented a get-rlch-qulelc scheme, which netted him $100 in less than a week. All that is going some for a youngster still in his early teens, and if this re markable genius is not nipped In the bud by the. meddlesome society Spindle, may yet make a name for himself as notorious as John D. Rockefeller's own. The case really is pathetic. Here's a youth with big day dreams. Perhaps he's fancied for the future something like the "Spindle foundation," or a flock of libraries or some trivial little thine- like iliat, and now steps up the Children's society, and with hands piously raised calls: "Stop, rash youth! Stop ere It be too late!" What's more, the society, t.ot content with admonition alone, has adopted restraint, and for the present at least the accustomed haunts of Master Spindle will know him no more. The boy wanted to come west and fight Indians. His parents, curiously enough, couldn't see it that way, so he tried his "Black Hand" dodge, and when that failed adopted another ex pedient. His plan, as told by himself, was to call at some neighbor's home and explain that the head of the fam ily had just been elected to an Im portant office In his lodge. The boy then would Insidiously suggest that it ■would be nice to surprise "father" on hla return home with a bunch of flowers and would politely offer to get the blooms from the nearest florist. Once he had been given money with which to make the purchase, however, Master Spindle never came back. In that way he amassed $100 over his living expenses In a single week. Then the Children's society got him. F. A. Torseh, millionaire packer of Baltimore, has been telling tales out of school. Before a congressional commit tee the other day Mr. Torseh sit Id that canned oysters can be kept in cold storage for a little matter of ten years ■without affecting their wholesomeness or palatability In the least. Mr. Torseh said he knew this to be true, because his company had kept the tinned bi valves that long and hnd found no dif ficulty in marketing- them and no com plaints afterward. In fact, he said he had eaten some of the ten-year-old oysters himself and had enjoyed them, too. , Torseh is head of the Torseh Pack ing company, a concern which cans pretty muh everything in the sea food line, shipping its produts all over the country. He's a candid canner, is Torseh, for he didn't attempt to dodge the questions put to him. He gpqke right un like a little man and said y.u couldn't always tell by the taste of a bivalve how many years it had been out of the briny.

"That is enough from you," said the indignant sister. "What m*kes you think he is get ting worse?" inquired the father of the son, possibly called Jimmie. 'Because I heard Bister ask him last I night ir he thought she was the blarney i si',ne," replied the boy, possibly i Jlmmte. A woman walked up to the counter of tilonable Los Angeles hotel asked for a package ot valuables Which v, aa in Ihe safe. "If 1 had not wanted one particular thins, i suppose that I should have left the package where it was tor another three years," she said to the clerk, "Yes," said the clerk in answer to a question alter the woman left, "that package has really been in our safe, for three years. Why, we have all sorts of valuable papers, jewelry and even (noney that are entrusted to our keeping for years at a time. Pi sei in to prefer a hotel safe to a safety deposit vault. Duo reason, perhaps, is; that it costs nothing. Another is that the standard of the hotel clerk has Im proved. "it is astonishing the amount of jewelry that, is kept ill hotel safes. Of course the owners have originally stopped in the hotel, but they go away, leaving their valuables, and 1 have known such persons to bo gone away as long as two years without making an inquiry about their property. This is an age of doubt. To provo | that statement the following conversa tion overheard recently in a downtown cafe is repeated. The conversation con sists of two parts. The first part la made, up of the words of tho first spaaker. The second part is made up of tho words of the second speaker. The joke, or rather the proof of the statement ventured above will be found by the careful reader in the second part, consisting, as before stated, in the words of the second speaker. The. conversation as here presented, it will ! be understood, is merely fragmentary. Here is the conversation: "When Dr. Cook was at the Wal dorf "• "Show me the hotel register." Harry Mulligan, formerly of the Wai dorf-Astoria, Is head clerk of Chicago's new costly skyscraper hotel, the Blackstone, which opened April 15. "Out of 121,673,091 hair cuts adminis tered in this country last year eighty eight were cut .lust as the patrons desired they should be," is the state ment of a representative of a large Cincinnati barber shop house, who is stopping at the Hayward. overheard in the lavandur room of the King Edward: T.iidy—Are they wealthy? Second lady—They gave their baby an auto tire to cut Its teeth. "Something wrong with my right foot," said the man at the hotel coun ter. "Could you direct me to a good carpenter?" "Excuse me." said the clerk, with a sly glance of amusement at the lady bookkeeper, "but of course you mean a chiropodist." "No, I'm going to be patient With you, young man, and tell you that I want a good carpenter. My right leg Is a wooden one." "The whole country as far as T rnn see is hotel mad," said Daniel P. Ritchey, hotel broker, N«W York, re cently. "You see, only a few years ago owners of old hotels and residents of a town would be opposed to the idea of a modern hotel in the midst of their in terests. They said it would ruin the business of the old places. Ho they sat back and watched other cities make the experiment. In every case the new hotels added business all around. The old-places are obliged to brush up a bit, and the overflow alone from the new hotels generally brings to the old ories a better trade than they had be fore. For instance, annex after annex has been built on the Hollenden of Cleveland, one of the first of the mod ern'hotels in that part of the country. ■Rochester now has three fine new ho tels, and among other places to try new structures with success are Al bany Waterbury and Bridgeport, Conn.; Reading and Scranton, Pa.: Springfield, Mass.; and so on down through the states, if you wish. Los Angeles cannot build hotels and add annexes fast enough to accommodate Increasing business. The, direct benefit to the community It not to be ques tioned. "Many odd mistakes have been made in the erection of hotels, through inex perience.
