sale of tickets and reserved seats for the
various Fiesta entertainments and seats
at Central Park will begin at L. Belly
mer's, No. 100 South Spring street. The
entire sale of seats and handling OF the
seating OF spectators has been placed in
| Mr.. Behymer's hands, and thorough
arrangements made for every entertain
ment. BY making such provisions Tor
the comfort OF spectators. and the low
prices fixed for the events of the week
| where charges of admission were requl-
site. the public will have the chance OF
/ seeing everything at a small expenditure
and from good places. ii they so desire.
| The arrangements at Central Park are
particularly admirable for spectators, in
case they wish to have place certain for
| sight seeing, instead of taking their
| chances upon the streets. There are
many who will not wish to avail them
selves of the chance, but there are many
who will, and for these the board has
| provided. 1t will be a very brilliant scene
at the park wnen the seats on all four
streets fronting it are filed with specta-
| tors on the occasion of the various parades,
and particularly the floral pageant and
| Battle Of Flowers.
The illumination OF floats for night
parades has been Il source OF much trouble
To the Fiesta committees. but has at last
been solved and in a way that 1t is be-
ieved will prove very satisfactory An
investigation of the methods in use in
cities where celebrations of this character
have been in vogue much longer than
Los Angeles, was made and it was finally
decided that the illuminant which gave
most satisfaction and was freer from un-
certainty than any others was that of gas
olne torches d hectors, and arrange
ments have accordingly been made for a
large supply of such apparatus. They will
nf foil MT me a 4
features OF the Wednesday night pageant
of Fiesta week with brilliant effect. The
illumination OF the parade is, OF course.
enhanced by the use OF fireworks, which
Will be of a harmless nature but very
beautiful.
One OF the greatest difficulties with
which the floral committee is meeting is
the dill toii ess OF intending participants
in maklns h r n res iof the pageant OF
FL Dia dc las Flores. The committee has
had numerous entries OF course, but
has heard indirectly CT many citi-
zens who are expecting To take
part in the parade, but have not notified
the committee. 1t is necessary that they
should do SO in order that the committee
may systematize its work, and it would
be very little trouble for any one to drop
a line to Chairman John 4. Griffith or
call on him at his office in the Potomac
Block, 217 South Broadway. The entries
given place in the parade or furnished
the tickets necessary to enttIe them to
compete for the valuable list OF prizes.
Those making entries have to be as
signed to their appropriate section IN the
parade. and it Will greatly facilitate the
work of the committee ii those intending
to take part will observe its request for
early entries.
The committee has adopted a rule
which will be acceptable to IA good many.
1t has been provided that all successful
exhibitors will be entitled to elect wheth-
er they will have the cash amount OF the
prize or souvenir which can be pur-
chased for ii, suitably engraved and COM
memorating the Fiesta
Mr.. Rosenbaum. whose beautiful gar
dens at Pasadena are greatly admired,
has offered the floral committee as many
flowers as he can spare for Fiesta week.
In speaking OF Miss Katherine Fleming,
the contralto OF the Fiesta concerts, the
Baltimore Herald says: "Bubbling over
with good humor and as pretty as pic
ture, Katherine Fleming is one of the
most popular members OF the company.
In accordance with the strange condition
of things, she appears often as gypsy
and sorceress. Perhaps this is owing to
her captivating manner and bewtching
ways. Her eyes sparkle continually. mir
roring a happy disposition, and Mr..
Guile finds the little enchantress an easy
mark when he springs some of his funny
business. One would hardly realize that
she is comparatively young in the profess
sion. 1t is difficult matter to lind a
contralto of such range and power every
day, and it is marvellous how one OF so
slight physique can bring forth such
volumes of tone. She makes a splendid
"Azucena" and a pretty Lola, her
portrayal of the latter character being ex-
ceptionally fine. Miss Fleming made her
debut in Boston with The Hinrichs
Grand Opera Company" She went on
in "L'Amico Fritz" without much
preparation. In six short months she
acquired the entire Hinrichs' repertoire.
and is without doubt the hardest worked
member in the company. Her previous
experience was upon the concert platform,
where she achieved great success.
