The old colonial home of Mr. and
Mrs. A. B. Stephens. on avenue C pre-

I ed her birthday anniversary. In the'

with pot plants and smilax was draped
। around the chandelier. In the parlor
! the predominating colors wore pink and
| green tall vases of pink roses and ferns
j being used in every conceivable nook
and corner. Pot plants surrounded the
; piano and were used lavishly to out-
line the tables.
In the dining room where dinner was
served pot plants and ferns were used
effectively to outline the walls and the
table was surrounded with the same
plants. The color scheme was pink and
green. In the center of the table a
large mound of pink roses and ferns
were massed and over the table pink
roses and ferns were scattered.
The place cards were pretty hand-
l painted ones in a fruit design. All the
appointments were pink and this was

SAN ANTONIO LIGHT AND GAZETTE
STAR-GAZER SUES A
SOUL-MATE FOR $150000
Miss Antoinette BUsabeth Ganem and Her Smile That Saddened the Stan.
Chicago Oct. 18.—Ever since the
spirit wires got crossed in the married
lief of Prof. Niblo and Mme. Mizpah
be th mystics to Chicago society the
madam has wondered what beautiful
hlond Miss Antoinette Elizabeth Gaz-
zam is going to do next.
Ml«s Gazzam whose nnspiritual name
doesn’t bar her from attention by as-
trologers—she js worth $5000000 —is
called an affinity by Mme. Mizpah who
declares the stars told her to look out
for a tall light woman as soon as she
noticed her husband didn’t care for her
any more.
Miss Gazzam is heiress of the late
Philadelphia state senator of that name.
She has less money now than before she
met Prof. Niblo declares Mme. Mispah.
The madam cast a couple of horoscopes
called a lawyer threw a trance and as

ing planned for this "score.”

der.
Greetings have been received from
Norman Bodet who is attending Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College in
Brvan.
Misses Baskin were hostesses to the
Shakespeare club yesterday afternoon
at their home on Baltimore- avenue.
This was their initial meeting and a
social session was enjoyed. Two Shak/s-
pearian games were played and Miss
Jennie Reed Lupton was awarded the
prize.
Punch was served to a large number
of guests.
The Igdies of the San Fernando Cem-
etery association met yesterday at the
cathedral. The treasurer gave her re-
port and other reports were made. Mrs.
A. J. Castanola presented Father Pratt
with $181.00 which was derived from
the bazaar and luncheon given last
week at Mrs. Castanola’s house. Thore
were no expenses as the members do-
nated all supplies. This money will bo
used to remodel the altars.
In presenting the money Mrs. Cas-
tanola made a short address and thank-
ed the ladies and the public for their
assistance.
The collector Miss Adella Garcia
ma e her report that $60 had been col
lected. This drew the association fun 1
to $181.70. This money is used to pay
the expenses of the cemetery.
Father Pratt made an impressive
speech and thanked the ladies for their
help in making the bazaar and luuch
such a success.
The three ladies that sold the most
tickets wore presented with handsome
silver medals by Father Pratt. Mrs. A.
J. Castanola sold 30 and received the
largest medal; Miss Ella Le Rue sold
28 getting the next size and Mrs. Ed-
ward Hoyer with 27. won the small-
est. The father blessed thesje after the

a result announced her busband and
Miss Gazzam were deeply in love and
that the professor was money-mad.
She couldn’t divine being a woman
as well as a star-gazer what beauty
Niblo saw in any other than herself.
Thus the curtain rose on a scandal in
the occult world that's enough to turn
all tile signs of the zodiac topsy-turvy.
Prof. Niblo’s real name when not
communing with the Milky Way is
Marshall Clark. Tall with a soldierly
presence and a true mystic stare he has
Seen a striking silk-hatted figure on
Michigan boulevard for several years.
He and the madam attained remarkable
success in jerking the draperies off the
past.
Each subject of the professor after
telling him all the secrets of bis pre-
vious life would receive directions to
call on the madam. Conversely each
caller on the madam would be sent to
the professor.
Between calls the worldly telephone
was kept busy. Of course then the
unworldly spirits and stars did peeuliar
things when the subject arrived at the
branch office. Mme. Mizpah was mak-
ing her name good for when she and
her husband were absent one from an-
other the telephone helped a lot.
In fact money came in so fast that
Prof: Niblo after consulting the stars
again decided to invest in California
real estate. At Los Angeles the stars
still guiding him steered him straight
to Miss Gazzam.
Then came application by the profes-
sor for a divorce in Nevada indignant
counter-charges by Mme. Mizpah in Chi-
cago and the filing of a $150000 dam-
age suit against Miss Gazzam by the
madam in New York. Meanwhile the
pre.tty cause of it all smiled sweetly
and said: "I’ll wait my entire life and
spend my fortune on the man I love.”
Nobody but the stars knows what is
coming next and while Miss Gazzam
smiles she is not quite happy. The
lawyers are though.

We eeonunee today what is In a sense a piaao "clearance.” All ef the
iMtraments—exeejR about half a dozen from our own liaeo—have come to
us in exchange for Emerson Angelus I'ianoo and Chiekering Grand Pianoe.
The accumulation of these Instruments here is rapid. The necessity for
their prompt disposal is imperative. Aad so almost without regard to the
splendid character aad condition of the pianos we make prices low beyond
nil precedent. It seems probable that such prices for instruments of equal
merit csanot be matched anywhere in America. The character and condi-
tion of the pianoa * the great point that differentiates this sale from ordin-
ary sales of "used” pianos. These are instruments that bear famous names.
Many of them are like new—absolutely as good as when they were new.
And yet tbe prices are $100 $200 even $300 less than you would have to
pay for pianos not a bit better if you bought them in the regular way.
Every one of them is sold under a full guarantee just as though you were
buying a new instrument. Nobody who contemplates the purchase of a
piano should miss the cbanee this sale offers for the next few days.
