ADJUSTMENTS.

The leading topic in amusement cir
cles In this city at the present time Is
the appearance In this city a. the Opera
House, Friday, February II, Of Dark
est Russia" which will be presented In
all its brilliant details. The cause for
this interest in the coming production
OF that romantic drama lies In the fact
that 1t Is recognized as play of In
tense realism, replete with thrilling sit
nations and bright dialogue and never
falling TO keep an audience In constant,
state of pleasureable anticipation. The
impression might arise that inasmuch
as It treats OF the political system OF
Russia, there would be but little chance
for the intersection OF parts to attract
and interest American theatre goers.
But 1t Is the fact that the author has
looked out for that very thing and he
has taken advantage OF the opportu
nifty to weave an Intensely interesting
story about the theme, instructing In
the ways OF the Russians as he went
along, putting here and there touch
Of American color. making prominent
the comedy feature. and. on the whole,
constructing drama that, were its eX
ample followed universally, the word

His efforts to present n worthy play
to the American public have been we'll
seconded by Manager Ellis, who ha;
surrounded the piece with all the the,
africa! accessories that are necessary
for the successful production of the
kind. The company is strong one
and the stage pictures made possible
are brought out with such an attention
to detail that an untruth need not be
told in order TO convince every specta-
tor that Darkest Russia" can be at all
times seen with instant delight and laSs-
Ing pleasure.

SANTA ANA NOTES
An Insolvent Grocer-A New Road in
La Habra Valley

SANTA ANA, March 14.-The Woman's
Relief corps gave most enjoyable social
Saturday afternoon, with Mrs. John Avis
at the Richelieu hotel.
d. 8. Chamlee was fined $25 or 121a days
In Jail today by Judge Ballard for con-
tempt of court. Chamless Is the insolvent
grocer of Fullerton who, when he received
citation to appear in court to meet his
creditors, put the papers In his pocket and
at once took his departure for Oregon. He
journed as far as Bakersfield, when he was
overtaken and brought back. The case will
be appealed by Chamlee's attorneys.
County Surveyor H. c. Kellogg, Elisha
Spear and John A. Clever were appointed
by the supervisors to go over the ground
today and view the location of a new road
which is proposed in the La Habra valley
They will file their report tomorrow. Prop
erty owners have given right of way, sc
that little expense will be attached to the
Improvement, and 1t will be great con.
venience for that section.
A meeting of the Anti-Saloon league will
be held Tuesday evening in Neills hall.
Mr.. and Mrs. c. d. Fairbanks returned
Saturday from their wedding trip to San
Diego.
A union meeting Of the Christian Endeav-
or societies was held yesterday at the
First Baptist church. Miss Eta Neibe
led the meeting.
Mrs. Frank Monaghan of this city has
gone to San Francisco to attend her son
Charles, who is dangerously i'll there. Mr.
Monaghan and son. Frank, of The Needles
have also been summoned.
Most of the packing houses in the valley
will resume operations this week, after a

will pass. There Is q small section OF land
north of Station q, the title to which Is un-
certain. That, however, has no bearing
on the sewer question:; so Judge Pone, at
torney for Kinney and Ryan. promised to
have the deeds for the sewer right OF way
ready for the trustees by Monday next.
An ordinance providing for the sale OF
property held for delinquent taxes to the
town of Santa Monica was passed. This
ordinance Is in compliance with the state
law whereby the town buys in delinquent
property instead of selling the same to
private individuals, the owner of such de-
linquent property having five years in
which to redeem 1t.
In regard to electric lights on Nevada
avenue at Third and Fifth streets, Car
rillo stated that the electric light company
expected to receive necessary material In
a few days, hence he thought 1t advisable
to defer action on the matter. The people
who are interested in these particular
lights are wondering how much longer they
will have to grope in darness.
Under the head of good of the town."
Carrillo again called attention to the fact
that certain parties in Los Angeles had
been giving Santa Monica black eye by
advising tourists and pleasure seekers to
keep away from here, especially citing the
case of Mr.. Lawrence of Minneapolis, who
had been so advised Mr.. Lawrence, how
ever, came; he saw, and was conquered; !;
for he straightway purchased a f1ve-acre
tract, on which he will have home built
and will reside here with his family.
Mr.. Carrillo also stated that Hon. G.
Wiley Wells. W. III. Perry and others had
offered to make donations for the purpose
of assisting park development.

NOT UNKNOWN HERE
City Officials Dare Not Enforce the
Laws

SAN BERNARDINO, March 14.-Quite
an interest is being awakened in municipal
matters from the fact that the board of
city trustees has instructed the city mar
shal not to enforce the ordinances in re-
gard to saloons. What the power held over
the heads of the officials Is does not plainly
appear-whether political or financial. 1t
is over year to the next municipal elec-
tion, and that seems too far in the future
to have much weight; yet the fact femains
that the saloon power has gained control,
and runs the city to suit itself. There is
Sunday closing law in regard to saloons
which has hitherto compelled them to
close from midnight Saturday to 5 a. M
Monday. and other days from midnight
to 5 n. m., and although the trustees, seem
to fear the people If they attempt to repeal
this law, yet they have notified the city
marshal not to enforce it. This is direct
violation of the laws from an unexpected
quarter that will create a feeling that will
result in most bitter crusade against the
saloons and their friends the trustees. 1t
is only ten years since there were about
forty saloons in the city, and now there are
but fifteen, and the feeling growing in the
direction of fewer saloons and shorter
hours will mobilize the anti-saloon forces
to aggressive warfare.
