There was an entertainment at the Y.
NJ. c. A. hall last night given by the
Christian Endeavor societies of Los An
geles.
The object of this, as well as other en-
tertainments to be given hereafter, is TO
agitate' for the purpose of having this
city selected as the place for the interna
tional Christian Endeavor convention to
be held in 1897. This year it. took place
in Boston. The pecunIary advantages. as
well as the advertising which Los An
geles would derive from such a conven-
ton would certainly be of some import
ance. ...
Three well-known ministers addressed
the audience. The Rev. Charles W. Mag
CART of San Diego spoke upon Inspiration;
Rev. Burt Estes Howard of this city upon
Liberalty, and Rev. c.. c. Reynolds of
Pasadena upon the subject of Friendship.
Professor D. H. Morrison and the quar-
tette choir of the First Presbyterian
church gave mum Der OF excellent vocal
selections.
The hall was tastefully decorated, and
the audience large. The entertainment
was much appreciated.

been translated into society vaudeville
theater.' OF the two Perrys. Jack was
the brains behind the scenes OF the tiny
resort on Main street. while his brother
manipulated the front end of the place.
The Perrys made money-coined 1t. in
fact, very much faster than silver dollars
have really been coined ever since.
Jack Perry one day got together about
bakers dozen of fellows about as good
as himself, and with the material thus
in hand was formed the lodge OF Benevo-
lent and Protective Order OF Elks, which
has since been a part of the fraternai his
tory of Los Angeles. The Perrys ran up
against snag few years ago i'll the
shape OF dose of adverse fortune. which
crippled them financially and made them
each seek pastures new.
Last night Jack Perry did turn in
what the play bills called Reilly and

been turned into the Oipheum just as
easily as Perry himself had been trans
formed from variety manager to vau-

first four rows in the orchestra to tho roof

the big audience who were not real live
slks. were with Perry and his friends in
spirit.
He'll up to date is full of clever bits
of burlesque. and the Elks and their
friends gave the players an opportunity
to wind out of the skit raps at Mike Po-
laski, Ed McGinnis and their local celeb
rites who were more or less well known.
Each allusion and iocalism was applaud
ed high and dry.
In the oIio preceding the afterpiece
Jack Perry made his appearance with
Jim Tenbrooke as foil and IN the bur-
iesque Lily Perry, who is the charming
little daughter of Jack, made most
happy appearance, winning hearty ap-
plause from the friends of her father by
her neat dancing and effective singing.
Perry at first showed a bit of fright at
being once again with the friends of long
ago. but both he and Tenbrooke soon
warmed mp to their work and showed how
greatly they had developed in the few
years since they were here.
The entire show made great hit, the
house being packed.
Perry himself was, presented during the
evening with handsome floral design in
the shape of an elk's head.
The company will be here all the week.

Prospects Of . Ructi0n In the Chinese

There is quiet little shining up of old
armor and sundry weapons Of offense
down IN the Chinese quarters, besides ex
amining of door staples and buckling up
of cartridge belts. And all because the
mysterious Charley All Him (Quan HIM

but if he is here he is maintaining that
sinister air of mystery that so overawes

the edge of his knife or closes his chat
terlng teeth over the slug for his 45 and
wonders whether the mild but terrible
Him has spotted him as the man to be
marked. OF course. nothing will be done
until Charley is gone again-Charley
hasn't been ION the turf all these years

portentous. and that deviltry is brewing
in Chinatown again the police are aware

The Humble One-cent Pieces nasquerading
as Dimes
Within the last few days several reports
have come to the detectives of counterfeit
money being passed among the restaurant
keepers and small tradesmen on East
First street. The facts really are that the
humble one-cent pieces recently brought
into the city-or some OF them at least
have been plated so as to look like silver
dimes. and in this masquerade have been
passed on the unwary as dimes.
In all the cases SO far reported chill
dren have passed the money. 1t is proba.
BILE that some older pe1s ms are the real
culprits, and are using this method of
putting the coins into circulation to their
great profit.
The detectives are at work upon the
case and will probably soon have the Of
tenders in custody.
