Los ANGELES sTHEATER.-Leonard Gro
yer, the veteran playwright, has in The
Wolves of New York produced a comedy
drama which bristles with realistic
effect.
The audience was in great good humor
and enthusiastically followed the vary
ing fortunes OF the hero and hsroines.
Twice the entire company was called
before the curtain.
There is a strong fascination about
the doings of that half-world which
lives while the other half peacefully
sleeps, and herein is found the potent
reason for the crowds which flock to see
plays which, lurid and melodramatic in
quality, reflect in large measure COM
posite types that make up the life of a
great city. The Wolves OF New York is
largely predominant with bunco steer
ere, short change individuals, toughs,
touts, with deep dyed" villain here
and there to add q certain spice to the
ensemble. But the morale of the play
is we'll defined. for virtue is everywhere
triumphant, while villainy receives it's
just deserts in the end, as the good dra-
matist, who seeks to elevate the stage,
must ever terminate his play.
The scenery of this new candidate to
western favor. having played to big
business in the east last year, is par
ticulsrly noteworthy, especially the
winter racing at Gutenberg, Jefferson
market prison, city hall and Printing
House square, where all the big dailies
of New York are clustered, and the old
Tetlow oil yards by the East river.
There is in this last scene an element
of the intensely realistic that carries
the house by storm and must be seen
to be appreciated.
Miss Grella Foltz was great success
as the country girl, 'Miilie Drsyton."
In her appearance in burlesque costume
in the Mabille scene she was particu-
larly fetching.
Leonard Grover, jr., was very good as
"Robin O'Mslley," the young Irish-
man. The company is good and The
play is we'll put on.

and other hotels in that state. These
great caravanseries are 80 lux
urious and comforting that they
attract hundreds of thousands OF people
to that state during the winter season.
We have been looking around for our
rich New Yorker long time, and he has
not yet materialized. Why not turn in
and organize big stock company, and
build one OF these palaces ourselvesl
AS money making enterprise per Sc 1t
would be success. while the indirect
benefits would be incalculable. As is,
Pasadena is leaving us far in the rear,
and we have nothing to place in CON-
petition with the superb hotels OF San
Francisco, the Del Monte, at Monterey,
or even the Coronado at San Diego. We
should awake from our lethargy.

THE Messrs. A. G. Bilicke & Co., OF
the Hollenbeck hotel. have issued
beautiful little pictorial work entitled
"Vistas in Southern California" 1t is
certainly gem of its kind, and cannot
fail to attract many sight-seers and
ramblers under pleasures wand to cer-
tainly the most unique and attractive
region on the American continent. AS
finished specimen of the heights to
which half-tone photo-engraving can be
carried we have seen nothing compar-
able to it in such limited space. The
illustrations embrace familiar scenes in
Los Angeles city and county, present
ing the most distinctive types of our
architecture and some of the famed
scenic points OF our semi-tropical land.
There is no letter press OF cumbrous
character to detract from the pictorial
presentation of the charms OF thls sec
ton, the few words OF descriptive mat
ter merely intimating to the reader the
localities illustrated. The illustrations
are allowed to tell their own story,
which they do with enhancing COM
pleteness.

The details OF the McCreary Chinese
bill as it passed the House yesterday are
Unexpectedly agreeable to the people
of this Coast. 1t extends the perlod for
registration for six months, and con-
tains amendments by Geary and Cami-
netti that will meet the approval OF
California. This is subject for great
songrstulstion, and the satisfactory So
luton of the question will greatly
strengthen the California Democracy.
1t is also said to meet the views of tine
administration. Its provisions cannot
fail to settle the Mongolian mnddle if
rigidly carried out, and will ultimately
result in our being freed from the ori-
entail pest.

THERE are few people, no matter how

ventures, who do not believe that they
can conduct hotel, run newspaper or
steer race horses to victory. AS mat
ter of fact. these three avocations proba-
bly require more skill than any others
that could be named. In this con-
necti0n very amusing story is told
about Lucky" Baldwin, who has
earned the quoted prefix by sending his
millions higher and higher. As the
story goes, one OF the admirable
Crchtons" was telling Mr.. Baldwin how
he ought to conduct certain business
affairs which at the time engaged the
attention of the millionaire. The latter
listened with great patience until
his interviewer got through. Finally
Mr.. Baldwin said, ''How do 1 stand in
the financial world?" "Oh," replied
the dispenser of advice, "you are many
times millionaire. l guess l would
put you at $25, 900. .000." "Well," said
E. j., "how much are you worth ?"
This question was poser, as the volun-
teer point-giver was not worth a 'sou

proprietor of the Santa Anita ranch,
and of much more valuable property
hereabouts, dryly remarked, perhaps.

POISONOUS MACKEREL.

Escape Death
BY Eating of Canned Fish-A Doctor :
Timely Arrival Alone Saved

Mr.. and Mrs. w. B. Devin, who reside
on Eleventh street, between X and L,
had very narrow escape from death on
Wednesday night by eating impure
canned macl1erel, and even up to late
hour last night they were still suffering
from the effects of the poisoning.
1t appears that Mrs. Devin had pre-
pared some Of the mackerel for supper.
and when Mr.. Devin came home they
both ate heartily OF it, but their S-year-
boy-fortunately for his parents, as well
as himself-declined to partake of it, as
he was not partial to mackerel. About l
o'clock yesterday morning Mrs. Devin
began to suffer excruciating pains in her
stomach and limbs, her legs being terribly
cramped and drawn up. Her husband
was awakened by her cries, and jumping
from the bed he hastily lit a lamp.
and had barely done SO when he was at
tackled by similar paroXysms of pain.
He fell to the floor in intense agony and
called to his little son for assistance.
The latter was finally awakened. and
went to his fathers livery stable, near
by, for assistance. DR.. hughson soon
arrived, and after a short investigation he
pronounced them both to be Suffering
from poison. Emetics were administered.
and water applied, which partially re-
lieved the sufferers, but it was not until
some hours atterward that they passed
the critical point, and the doctor felt they
had fair chance for recovery. He said
they had undoubtedly been poisoned by
the mackerel.
