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.
