Many country bred boy now becomes
a city man, hustled and fretted with the
toll and care of commercial life, looking
upon such picture as the old door
yard in this play, will wonder how he
could ever have thirsted for the city's
din and excitement. But even into this
isolated place comes care and trouble,
all because woman's smile had been
too sweet and a mans avarice too
strong. On Friday evening and Satur-
day matinee Mr.. Robson will be seen in
Bronson Howard's great play, 1.-THE
Henrietta" His characterization of
Bertie the Lamb is one Of the great
works of the American stage. 1t stands
side by side with the famous creations
of the men Of the past and present as a
work of art. The play has proved Mr..
Howard's greatest success, largely ow-
ing to the tremendous personal success
of Mr.. Robson in it's principal role. 1t
has endured for years where the other
great successes of the last decade have
endured for months. and is sure to prove
good medium for the brilliant comed-
ian for years to come. A fine company
mas been placed in the support of Mr..
] ROBSON this season. A pleasant feature
OF the latter is the temperance of Mrs.
Robson in the role of the gay widow
Opdyke, role which she has made fa-
nous. Thomas E. Wise, Edwin Holt,
Ernest Lamson. John Webster, John
Wooderson, Ida Mcmillan, Edna

clever people will be seen in the cast

BURBANK THEATER.-(Advan
Announcement) Tomorrow evening the
bill is the well known melodrama of
New York city life by Milton Mobiles,
'The Phoenix" In days gone by the
actor author made this play famous
Mr.. Shaw has made Jim Bludso one Of
his best roles. Miss Jennie Kelton is
Sadie, the flower girl, afterwards the
we'll known actress Eff1e Elmore. The
part of Kittie Moran, the rollicking
French soubrette from Cork, will be in
the hands Of Nellie Maine Shaw; AlHal-
lett as Moses Solomon, the Jew will as
sist her in the comedy role. The ever
present villain, crowned with success
until the final denouement, will be
presented by w. H. Gilbert. The latter
half Of the week will be given to play
never before presented in Los Angeles,
"The Pavements of Paris" The story
told is that of the fortunes of Jean LIE
Frank, his wife Annette and their
daughter Marie. Mr.. H. s. Duff1eld will
make his first appearance in this city as
Jean LIE Frank; Alice Saunders as An
nette lie Frank; Birdie De vaul as Ma
rie. The story centers around the char
acter of De Flaehon, devil-may-care
fellow, the nondescript, happy lucky

DANCES AND
 RECEPTIONS Informal Gathering at the Parrott Residence-Miss Smith Entertains.

Last night, for the first time in many years, the Parrott residence: was the scene of festive gathering, the occa- sion being reception and dance given by MT. and Mrs. Christian de Guigne.
 The affair. though most charmingly in formal, was a most enjoyable one. No elaborate decorations were. attempted. though the artistic arrangement of palms and flowers made the elegant rooms look brighter and prettier. There was no receiving party. MT. and Mrs. de Guigne alone received their guests and charmingly offered them the hospitality of their home.
 The guests began to arrive shortly after o'clock, and the entrancing strains ..of stringed instruments soon lured the young people to the pleasures of the dance.
 The assemblage was a notable one and included the wealth, beauty and repre- sentative people of the city.
 At midnight there was an elaborate service of refreshments, after which dan cling was once more in order. MT: and Mrs de Gugne's guests numbered 150

THE OMAHA EXPOSITION.
Steps Taken by Local Business Men to Have the State Properly
 Represented.

The committee appointed from the State Board of Trade, Manufacturers and Producers Association, Chamber of Commerce, Merchants Association, San Francisco Board of Trade, Miners Asso- citation and kindred organizations met yesterday afternoon to discuss the rep resentation of the State at the Omaha Exposition, but nothing definite was ac- complished.
 A communication was read from the managers of the exposition, giving the State 10J0 square feet of space to present a mineral exhibit and a concession on all additional space required at the rate of 75 cents a square foot of ground floor occupied.
 The matter of the cost of giving min- eral exhibit in conjunction with a display of the products of the several counties of the State was discussed at length, and it was the opinion of those present that a display as contemplated could not be made for less than $20 900, and that on consideration that there would not be any charge for transportation of the goods either way.
 After discussing the matter for two hours, it was decided to empower the chairman, A. A. Watkins, to appoint a committee of three to ask the Supervis- tain the amount of space required and, If possible. give joint exhibition with the county of Los Angeles, which will be represented at the exposition, and def1n- ftely learn from .he railroad officials on what terms the exhibits may be taken to
