THE FILM PLANNERS.
Go to Santa Monica and Forfeit Their
Bail


When the case against Charles Cham
bers and Henry Mullane, the "fim
fam" operators, was called by Justice
Austin at nine O'Clock yesterday morn
ing, when sentence should be passed
upon them, neither of the defendants
responded to his name. Somewhat to
the surprise of the spectators, Maj. ].
A. Donnell and j. S. Chadwick ap-
peared and announced to the court that
they represented the defendants. The
latter then made a statement to the
effect that the young men had taken
trip down to Santa Monica, spromising
to return at eleven O'Clock. Before
leaving, however, they had authorized
him to retain counsel, and he had done
so in the person of Maj. Donnell. The
attorney then moved the court to grant
that the court had erred on several
questions of law which had arisen dur
ing the trial, and that its verdict was
contrary to the law and the evidence.
This motion was promptly denied, as
tence until IL O'Clock, by which time
it was hoped that the defendants
would be present.
The defendants having failed to ap-
pear and show cause, if any there was,
why sentence should not be pronounced
upon them, the court ordered that each
be confined in the city jail for a period
of thirty days and in addition pay fine
Of $3.50.
No order could be made forfeiting the
$500 cash bail deposited by each defen-
dant, as the fact that they were repre-
sented by counsel, had the same effect
as their actual presence would have
had. 1t was currently rumored yester-
day that the defendants did not intend
to return to this city, on account of the
thirty days imprisonment hanging over
their heads, but on the other hand they
still have the right, and will in all pro-
liability use it, to appeal from the de-
cision of Justice Austin, in which case
of course they would remain at large
pending the decision of the superior
court. Should they, however, have
seen fit to leave the city permanently,
only $500 of their bail money can be ap-
piled to the payment of their fines, and
the balance must remain in the hands
OF the court until they return to claim
it, when they will be required to serve
their terms.

that the criminal proceedings against
Justice Savage were commenced only
for the purpose OF making the Justice

the district attorneys suspicious
were aroused. He claims that
Mr.. Savage told deputy Tanner, of

Los Angeles, and then informed deputy
Marble that it was in Santa Monica.

Voice From the Grave.

At an early period of my career, while
travelling with company on the road,
WAS approached in a small country town,
where we had one-nght stand, by a man
in the last depths of shabbiness, who asked
for free admission for himself and fat,
greasy-looking woman, attired in taWdry
finery, on the ground that they were pro-
fessiOnals.
What company are you playing with?"
| asked.
My own. Aided by this lady-my wife

l passed them in and went at noon the
next day TO the public square. In the CEN
ter of gaping crowd l found my shabby
friend of last night, accompanied by
his wife, who was now clad in a
nondescript stage costume terminal
ing in Turkish trousers. Presently he
cried out in stentOrian tones, Bring forth
the fiery untamed steed," whereupOn a
small boy led out from neighbOring alley
an aged white horse seemingly too weak to
draw his own breath. Aided by the man
the woman got upon this feeble animals
back, and the boy led him two or three
times up and down the square.
Now, ladies and gentlemen" exclaimed
the man when the horse had stopped, "

Harrigsn Bobs Up sereneIy.

One of the best known of the oid-time
theatrical managers swas the late George
Wood, who died some four or five years ago.
For nearly forty years he was continuously
engaged in theatrical management, and dur
of some of the best play-hOuSes in this
country, notably the old Broadway Theater,
in New York, where many of the most i'm
pUrtant dramatic aud musical events of the
past took place. He was a remarkable man
IN many ways and possessed a neYer-failing
fund Of dry, caustic humor that gave a wide
celebrity to many of his sayings. ! shall
never forget a reply he once made TO an
other weli-knOwn New \ Ork manager who
had recently opened a new theaIer ana was
producing a society play on scale of SPLEEN
dor previously unknown. When the piece
had been running a few nights Wood paid
it a visit. The manager of the theater out
of professional courtesy, accompanied him
to private box. Now Wood had
no liking for the society drama,
and when lie saw all the actors
clad in low-cut vests and white neek-ties,
their hair parted in the middle, and their
eyebrows and eyeashes made UP prettily
with black cosmetics, lie was intensely dis
gusted.
We'll, George" said the manager when
the curtain had fallen, what do you think
of my company
The worst ever saw, promptly replied
Wood. All the actors al my tneater are
men, and they were all made after the good
old orthodox Iashion-Out of dust but
these fellows you have here look like dolls
made out of charlotte russo and sponge
cake" EDWARD HARRIGAN.
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1890-06-22

About as funny an incident as | can re-
call at this moment occurred many years
ago. While Edwin Forrest was playing an
engagement in Cincinnati 1t was decided
to put on "Pizarro," but no child could be
found to persOnate ROlla's little boy, The
manager and the pTOpertyman were at their
wits end Ii was impossible TO have the
boy persouated by dummy, for he was re-
uuired to walk. embrace his father and
mother and perform other actions which to
q dummy would have been physical lmpOS-
sibilities. At last, in an evil hour, the prop
ertymau was struck by what he regarded
a happy thought. At one-h0rse museum,
a few squares off the list OF curlOsitieS IN
cluded a middle-aged dwarf, who. despite
his small stature, was gifted with large
head and very old face, as well as Slngu-
larly gruff voice. The prOpertyman, after
considerable negotiation, succeeded IN rent
ing this midget from the museum man
aver for one night only to person
ate Rolla's infant son. The dwarf
was not present at rehearsal, and
the character of the infant which he was to
carry on was carefully concealed from For
rest, ~ hO beheld him Tor tile flrst time AS he
picked him up in the first entrance TO rush
with Linn across the bridge, and whose feel
ings at that moment like the difficult pas
sages in novels, would be more easily
Imagined than described. Grasplng the
terrified dwarf IN his brawny arms, Forrest,
never very gentle N any Of his stage bust
ness, rushed like a whirlwnd before the
audience, shouting at the top Of his power
full voice, Rolla passes freelyl" and hand
ling the son of his adoption rather more
roughly than usual. When about half way
across the bridge the poor midget could en-
duTe 1t no longer, and thruStlng his head
out from under old MetamOra's arm and
looking up into his face, said, in very deep,
bass voice, so completely out of keeping
with his stature and his supposed juVenillty,
that if lamb had ToaIed it could scarcely
have been more surprising: See here, you
great big lubbeT, what are you going to do
with me, anyhow
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1890-06-22

1t was at the old Bowery Theater, New
York, that began my professional career,
ana the corps of supers included an ambi-
tious young fellow who was very anxious
TO play a speaking part. One night when
Edwin Forrest was playing Macbeth"
the utility man, who WAS to announce the
seeming approach Of Birnam Wood, was
nowhere to be found. The ambitious supe
was selected to fill his place. He was soon
perfect in the one line Of his part, and at
the proper cue lie stalked on to the stage
and boldly announced to Mr.. Forrest, "As
I did stand my watch upon the hill looked
toward Birnam, and anon, methought, the
wood began to move" Quick as a flash
Forrest had seized him by the throat,
forced him down upon his knees, and
roared out in his most terrible voice, Liar
and slavel'
Being taken wholly unawares, the fright
ened supe thought his last hour had come
and that Macbeth was going TO kill him.
His face was blanched with fear, his knees
knocked together, and he cried out in the
agony Of despair: - Forgive me, Mr., For
rest; l didn't mean to tell a lie. l only
said what the stage manager told me!
The shout that went up from the audience
would have awakened Rip Van Wrinkle IN
the first six months Of his twenty years
sleep. The situation was too much for
Forrest himself, and for once even his stern
features relaxed. WILLIAM j. FLORENCE.
