The Los Angeles California Herald of Saturday, June 11, contains a true likeness of Miss Daisy Dinwiddie, and the following item: -- "Miss Daisy Dinwiddie of Indiana has been the guest of Mrs. Edwin Ware for several weeks. At the latter's wedding, which occurred last Tuesday, Miss Dinwiddie charmed the guests with her beautiful voice, which is a soprano of delightful quality and range. She has appeared as a soloist many times at events in the eastern and middle states, where she won much praise from the critics."
