L e e ] ) CUPID BREAKS THE CONTRIGTS |Love and Business Af- fairs Entangled in San Jose. Special Dispatch to The Call, SAN JOSE, April 25,—Cupid has been the means of causing Miss Agatha Gray Cum- | mings, a young vocalist and dramatic | reader of this city, to break a contract | she had signed for a tour with a concert | company. B. W. Ward, a Baptist evan- gelist, who recently gave Bible readings at the First Baptist Church here and is | now conducting meetings at Los Gatos, is | another party who has been the cause of | the breaking of one contract and the mak- | ing of another which is to run for life. | The announcement of the engagement of Mise Cummings and Mr. Ward will cause a commotion in society. Miss Cum- mings had signed a contract with Mana- ger D. F, Carnes for a tour with the Jua- nita Concert Company. In the company are Mr. and Mrs. Carnes and Bessie Con- | key, another San Jose girl. A few days | ago’ Miss Cummings went to Manager Carnes and announced she would not be able to go with him, as she was about to be married, This brought down ths wrath of her manager, for the printing had all heen | done for the tour and other arrangements made. Threats or promises were unavail- ing and Miss Cummings stamved her feet and sald she would not go under any cir- cumstances. Now Miss Cummings is whispering into the ears of her closest friends that she is going to be married to Mr. Ward. At the home of the parents of Miss Cummings, Mr. and Mrs. Sayle, this afternoon the engagement was admitted, but they stat. ed they wanted nothing printed about it. The marriage will take place May 12. Miss Cummings is a popular and talent- ed young lady. She has great ability as a vocalist and dramatic reader.

Mr. Adems said that, tired and overtaxed with the fulfillment of social obligations, the wom- were accustomed to resort to stimu lants to brace them up and nerve them | to a point where they could sustain the severe physical strain which soclety im-| posed upon them. Inasmuch as the social season in Sacra- mento has been an unusually brilliant cne and that every day has supplied its elab- orate function, the remarks of the pastor have awakened no little comment. ¢ “My words were uttered more in sor- ‘ow than in eriticism of conditions,” said the Rev. Mr. Adams In an interview this “but facts are facts. I told | the convention, and 1 now repeat, that a | crisis is upon us in this State. There | a growth of intemperance among wome Men are compelled to sober up,and ap- | pear reasonably temperate in order (o | hold their positions, but no such restraint is upon women as mothers and sisters, The social duties of women subject them to a continuous strain, which in their be- lief calls for a stimulant to carry ihem | through the low physical state in whici they have dropped and prepare them for | the next social emergency.” ‘ Mr. Adams said he accounted for these conditions partly from the fact that wines and liguors are chief among the home products; they may be found at recep- | tions and public functions in Sacramenio, | and have become a feature of the hosvi- tality of home life. The pastor asserted | that he related what he knew to be the | actual conditt He added that the world demands v, more than ever, s ber men to conduct business, a fact which he regarded as one of the strongest in- fluences for and encouragements to tem perance among men that have ever been put forth.
