Court Dismisses Six Indictments. BUFFALO, N. Y. May 2 OP)— Indictments against 6 of the 28 de- fendants in the Illinois alcohol con- spiracy case were dismissed in Federal Court yesterday by Judge Simon L.

Argument on the motions occupied nearly the entire day and left 22 defendants on t ‘They are | a gala occasion. | It certainly is gratifying to find that a group of 35 women, even though in- | cluding in their number quite a few | well known as soloists, should work with such splendid co-operation and well almed preparation within a single sea- | son and achieve such admirable re-| sults as were shown in the program | last night. This club has only been | rehearsing_ since last Fall. but the re-| | hearsals have been regular and well | attended. This earnest persistence on the part of the members, combined with obviously intelligent and even talented | direction, has brought about excellent results. The work is not perfect yet, | but it is distinctive and has artistic | authority. Mabel Daniels' oft-heard June Rhapsody” was never so well | sung locally. Her “Song of the Per- sian Captive,” a very dramatic work, was a_highly acceptable novelty here. The Negro spirituais, so difficult for many groups to sing correctly, held no | terrors for Mrs. Blair and her chorus. | They sang_Burleigh's “I Want to B2 | Ready” with the appropriate diction and simplicity that it requires. Every num- ber was pleasingly sung. The program, | however, would not have suffered by being shortened by one choral group. The guest soloists were Mrs. Edythe | Marmion Brosius, a Washington harpist of cstablished repute, and Horace | Smithey, a young baritone, who has | only been in Washington a couple of | seasons, but who already has become | very ‘popular. Mr. Smithey did two | | short ‘groups “of songs. He showed a | slight nervousness, resulting in a tend- | ency to force his tone in the first group, | but d | group.
