Twenty men would excavate about
200 feet of trench 10 feet deep each
day, three men would lay the pipe,

$1.75 per day the wages for laying 200

Monday

If the plans contained in an ordi-

council Monday are carried out Mission
road will be widened from sixty
foot street to a 100 foot boulevard from
Also street to the eastern boundary
of the city.
Many complaints have been regis
tered this year about the condition of
Mission road. according to the street
department, and it seems to be impos-
sible to keep it in condition as it
stands at present. The road is an
avenue over which the people living
in a large section east of the city
come into the city and travel home
again and it is considered highly de-
sirable to build first class boulevard
which would accommodate this travel
and encourage the growth of the city
in that direction.

POLICE DISPOSE OF
FOUL PLAY THEORY
Several Persons Testify They Saw
Boiling Fall Down Staircase to
Basement of Grand Saloon

An inquest over the body of r. T.
Boiling, a San Francisco contractor,
who died at the county hospital Friday
night under circumstances which led
the police to advance murder theory,
will be held tomorrow morning in the
parlors of Pierce Bros undertaking es-
tablishment.
Additional evidence furnished the po-
lice yesterday disposes of the theory,
they think, that Boiling was the vic
tim Of foul play.
Boiling was found at the bottom of
a stairway, adjoining the entrance to
the Grand opera house, Monday night
in an unconscious condition. His skull
was fractured, and he was suffering
from concussion of the brain. He died
at the county hospital without having
regained consciousness.
Yesterday, when it was learned that
the police were probing into the case
several men appeared at the central
station, and asserted they had seen the
man fall down the stairs. Their testi-
mony will be used at the inquest.

cal director of the Alcazar theater, San
Francisco, for ten years, is now in Los
Angeles taking charge of the musical
part of the production of "Parsifal,"
which will open at the Belasco theater

Although this is to be the dramatic
version of Wagner's opera it will be
almost an opera so far as the orches-
tration goes. The actors will take their
cues from the orchestra which is a
reversal of the usual order.
Mr.. Lada will remain in the city un-

OF EVENT
General Manager Cline Says That Los
Angeles Is to Have the Greatest
Musical Program in City's
History

William Hamilton Cline, general
manager of the Innes band is in Los
Angeles this week arranging for the
the loose ends of the coming festival
into a condition where some definite
information is possible. Only the pres
ence of Mr.. Cline could bring this
about and that he was not here long
ago must be blamed on the elements
and not on anything else.
Now that 1 am here" said Mr.
Cline yesterday, II may tell the good
people of Los Angeles that this series
of festivals is going to be something
quite out of the usual run of such af-
fairs, in both magnitude and artistic
worth. 1 don't think Los Angeles quite
realizes all this yet, but we intend that
every man. woman and child shall do
so before we are done with things
Works of Wagner
"Of course, with festival series two
months off, it is too early to go into
the exact compositions to be sung on
each individual night, or to be played
at any one particular concert. But in
a general way l can say that there
will be one night, for instance-and
most likely Friday night-devoted ex-
clusively to the works of Wagner-a
'Wagnerfest' such as they have in
Germany. There will be another de-
voted to the works of eminent French
composers, including a full review of
the compositions of Saint -Saens, who
is the greatest musician living today.
There will be another of Russian
music, including works not at all
known here in the United States.
I'VE will devote one festival exclu-
sively to symphonic works, such as no
other organization save a symphony
orchestra can do; but which our pc
culiar Instrumentation makes easy for
us-such things as the Beethoven sym
phonies, the Rubenstein 'Kammenoi
Ostrow' and the like. We will have a
festival of light opera works, such as
the famous Gilbert & Sullivan operas
we will devote a night to popular
music of the day-for though there be
IilhSiNiaiS wiz dllGCL u QSSplSe any
thing written in America. Innes is too
catholic in his breadth to refuse place
on his programs to any work that is
really meritorious. SO you see that we
have few things up our sleeve that
are worth while.
But l haven't mentioned yet our
rendition of Parsifal in concert form
This is the same way that Wagner au-
thorized his friend, Anton Seidl, to-
give it in America and is the only au-
thorized fashion in which it can be
done outside of the Festspielhalle in
Baireuth. 1t eliminates all the long
recitatives, the weary waits and the
like, and gives the meat of the opera
in such form that its great music can
be appreciated.
