NORDICA NEXT WEEK Ily in Fargo, N. D., has selected women for his victims, and. judging from the size of his daily mail that in being held up by the postal authorities, he has been making a rich haul. Von Nieda's scheme was a good deal on the order of that which the Hullens employed. The latter used the picture scheme, and Von Nieda Elmply an apron. to gather in his silver harvest. Von Nieda advertised only In Eastern papers, calling for women to make aprons, for which he agreed to pay $3.60 a dozen provided they came to the specifications. After the victim had been hooked through correspondence, an adroitly drawn contract was sent to her, and, as guarantee of good faith. $1 was de manded. Should the aprons meet with the approval of Von Nieda, the woman was to receive tne dollar oacK, ana in addition $3.60 for the aprons. But. Judg ing from the letters received by the postal authorities, the aprons never met with his approval, even though they were given two trials. If the aprons were not accepted upon the second trial. Von Nieda kept the dollar. Von Nieda's carefully worded contract is a work of art, and he evidently got his scheme out of a book that has been sold In the East and contains no end of get-rich-quick schemes, which the author says has been submitted to the "best le gal talent" and found to be safe from prosecution. It seems that to get more money out of his victims Von Nieda had sample apron. When some woman sent in her dozen, aprons,' with the ex pectations that she would receive $4.60 for her labor and material, she would instead receive her work back, marked and dotted over with the 27 criticisms of disapproval that Von Nieda and girls employed by him had marked on the aprons. Then, as a bit of balm and to get more money. Von Nieda would ln- Anierica's I-avorlte Prima. Donna Conies to Heilig December 1 0. Mme. Nordica is a rare example of what heredity, natural talents and hard clear-headed work can accomplish. She traces her descent straight back to John Tilly and the Mayflower, through a line of ancestors who were eminent and distinguished people of their times. The men of both branches have been either clergymen or soldiers for many genera tions, and to Mme. . Nordica they have given that rare blending of the idealist and the man of action. Both father and mother were noted for their vocal accom plishments. From her mother she Inher ited also the same qualities of will and energy that marked her line of New Eng land ancestors; and from her father, who was an idealist, the poetic strain. When to these we add her magnificent phy sique, her eloquence of face and gesture, and her rich, glowing, thrilling voice, can we wonder that she has succeeded? Mme. Nordica stands today upon a pedestal of her own, the greatest dra matic soprano of the day, and she ascribes her success to work, more work, and then more work. She will again delight her Portland ad mirers when ehe sings to them Decem ber 10. at the Heilig. The concert is un der the direction of Lois Steers-Wynn Coman. AN ALB I NA BARGAIN.
