FOR NEW TRADES TEMPLE
Delegates in Session Discuss Project
and Appoint Committee

Delegates to the State Building
Trades council, holding their sessions

ing of reports, and in taking up other
business of the convention.
One of the most important actions,
from the standpoint of the Los Ange-
les delegates, was the appointment
OF committee to look into the advisa-
bility of the erection of Trades Coun-
Gil temple in Los Angeles, with a view
of having the convention indorse the
action provided the committee reports
favorably

The finances of the council were
shown to be in first class condition,
as was also the membership list.
The convention expects to bring its
sessions to a close today

LIQUOR MEN FEAR
NEW COMMISSION
INDICATIONS POINT TO TIGHT
REIN POLICY
Many Restaurant Licenses Are Likely
to Come Under the Ban of
MeAleer's Police
Board

The first open session of Mayor Me-
Aleer's police commission was indicative
In large sense Of the policy which will
probably be followed in reference to
the handling of the liquor problem. All
surface indications point to a revolu-
tion along certain lines.
Just at the close of the session Com
missioner Gates offered motion that
the chief be instructed to present at
the next meeting list of all retail
and wholesale liquor licenses. In it's
original form the motion included only
a list of those restaurant and whole
sale licenses that are held by saloon
keepers and operated in connection
with the saloons.
THE commission simply wishes to
inform itself of the conditions and to
become more thoroughly acquainted
with the true state of affairs. The list
will simply give the information that
will enable the commission to act more
intelligently," is the explanation from
the commission.
The rumor, however, has been per-
sistent that the new commission will
be radical In regard to restaurant
liquor licenses and that the revocation
of large number may be expected.
The same rumor charges that num-
bers of restaurant licenses are held
by saloon keepers who use the restaur-
ant license on Sunday and make no pre-
tense during the week of doing a res
taurant business. 1t is also charged
that the ordinance restricting the res
taurants to the sale of bottled goods
with full meals has been widely viola
ted. 1t is probable that the commits
sion will make broad use of the infor-
nation asked from Chief Hammel, and
that 1t will weed out a number of res
taurant licenses whose holders have
used them in violation of the ordinance.
During the same meeting Commits
sioner o. 7. Johnson gave his opinion
of the practice of establishing billiard
and pool tables in saloons.
Serafino Galati asked for a license to
conduct billiard hall in connection
with his saloon at 662 Buena Vista
street.
II think it is a mistake to allow any
games to run in connection with
saloon. 1 move that the application
be Denied" said Commissioner John
son.
The report of the chief showed that
Galati had secured the consent of a
majority of his neighbors. Questioning
by Commissioner James disclosed the
fact that it has been customary to
grant such licenses, and that the es-
adjustment of such policy would call
for the revocation of large number of
licenses already in use. Chief Hammel
gave it as his opinion that in certain
sections of the city seven-eighths of
the saloons had billiard hall accessories.
The commission held the. Galati appli-
cation up for a week before launching
upon any set policy.

COPY of Warwick Vase

Whether or no one has been through
the renowned castle of Warwick, which
is one of the best specimens OF teudal
stronghold, one is interested in re-
production of the Warwick vase
which has been done in Copeland pot
terry and is now in a store In Chestnut
street.
II is in two shades of blue, the
ground a light grayish shade. The
shape is superb, and the handles carry
out the dignifed scheme. This piece
measures twenty inches across the top
and is more than interesting.
The original Is in the conservatory OF
" arwick castle. 1t is magnificent
work i'm marble and was found IN the
Emperor Hadrian's villa at Tiyoll'
Italy. Hadrian lived from 76 TO lSo,
and i'm the year 120 he was in England
building the great wall from the tyne
to the Solway. Though most tourists
visit this quaintly somnolent old town
with it's oblique gables and delightfully."-
crooked streets (there are two or
three), there seems to be no great
amount OF general knowledge about
this vase, which a great authority de-
scribes as zone of the most completely
perfect and beautiful specimens OF an
cient sculpture known. .''--Exchange.

BRICK COMPANY
HOPES To ESCAPE
BIG CONTRACT MAY BE
ANNULLED
Material for the outfall Sewer to Be
Purchased and Work on the
Drain Will Soon Be
Commenced

1t is expected that during the week
the sewer committee of the city coun-
ell, together with the city engineer
and city attorney will settle the diff
culties hindering the building of the
outfall sewer.
The officials are working on plan
to end delay in securing brick and at
the same time call off the entangling
alliance with the Independent Brick
company.
City Engineer Stafford has repeated
ly reported that the political brick
makers are unable to furnish the
brick in accordance with their con-
tract. Acting under this report bids
have been obtained for material of
poorer quality.
The sewer committee will sift out
these bids, and after calculating the
freight rates from the different kilns
to the route of the sewer, will report
in favor of buying the brick outside.
The bond of the Independent Brick
company is to be released If the mem
bers of that company consent to an
annullment of the contract.
The bond is for $4,000 conditioned
upon the furnishing of brick, and ac-
cordng to the report of the city engi-
neer, is already delinquent for large
share
One other feature will be included
in the program. The brick company
owns land at Inglewood through which
the sewer will pass. In a condemna-
ton suit pending in the superior court,
the brickmakers claim the right Of
way damages their property to the ex-
tent of $4,000. DR.. Martin, the right
of way agent for the city, reported
that $500 was the outside figure. If
the council releases the brickmakers
from their obligations it will be upon
condition that deed be given to the
right of way.

MUSIC AND
THE DRAMA
Ellis Club Concert


Socially and musically the second
concert Of the Ellis club was a great
success. Simpson auditorium was
crowded last night with an audience I'M
full dress and in most demonstrative
mood.
The Ellis club has become an inn
portant factor in the musical life OF
Los Angeles, and the program at this
second concert strengthened the or
ganization's hold upon public favor, or
at least upon the favor of those for
tunate enough to obtain the privilege
of attending the concerts to which
money cannot buy an entrance. The
club sang Billiards. "Comrade Song"
first. This showed the splendid train
ing of the organization and revealed
the fact that there are many fine voices
In the club. Under the baton of the
director, ]. y. Pouin, the chorus did
excellent work. The voices were well
balanced, the phraslng was good and
every number was given with fine
spirit. There was only one fault to be
found with the concert-there was not
enough of the Ellis club. After the
singing of Gericke's 1.-THE Autumn Sea-"
the audience reluctantly accepted the
fact that there were but two more
numbers.
Harry Clifford Lott, the soloist of the
evening, fairly divided the honors with
the club. Mr.. Lott has been heard
frequently in Los Angeles, but last
evening the audience appeared to
awaken to the knowledge that the
modest soloist is baritone of marvel
Gus gifts. Add2d to a voice of splen-
did quality and great range Mr.. Lott
has dramatic power His four songs
last evening gave him little opportunity
to reveal more than the exquisite feel
ing and rare delicacy that are part of
the endowment of convincing singer.
After Arthur Foote's "The Night Has
a Thousand Eyes" and Love Me if /
Live" he was repeatedly recalled. He
was heard again in a solo part with
Carl Attenhofer's Defiance" the clos
ing song.
Miss Blanche Rogers, the accom-
pdlllSlJ NhiNh
was expressed in a floral token from the
club.
The Fllery band furnished the sec
ond part of the program and it had
much needed opportunity to prove that
it is without an equal in it's special
musical field. There was no need of
popular" selections, and Ferrullo, the
director, had chance to show the
bands possibilities. The first number
was the Peer ynt' suite. Such an
Interpretation of this GrieS compost
ton has never been given in Los An
geles. 1t was an artistic achievement
that called forth grateful enthusiasm.
Beethoven's Sonata Patetica followed
and the concert closed with mag
nificent performance of Boitos ''Mefis-
tofele." This was triumph for Fer
rullo, for Col. Ellery and the band. 1t
was something to be remembered as
one of the few satisfying renditions of
the work, and it was received with an
applause that attested the delight of
the music lovers who had contributed
the vocal part Of the program.

DECIDED AT POKER.
La k01.e1e Five Card DrawTWon the

- Ns.se's Five card Draw5Won the
Nazasso1 the County.
When the extreme western border Of
Dakota was coIonized there was a live
" squabbIe shout what the new coun-
" should be called There were four
commissioners whose duty it was to
decide n the name, and at the board
meetings the vote for the name Of the
county WIS always two and two, and
public feeling began to run high. John
VIM suggested that the four commits
sioners should take 500 white chips
apiece and play a game Of poker to
decide, the chips to represent IS each.
This raj agreed to, and the game COM
menced with the entire population on
hand. For two hours little gain was
made, and then a jack pot came
around, for which seventy-three hands
were dealt before 1t was opened. FL
nally Commissioner Edwards opened
It for 500. He held three kings, Judd
La Moure held a zigzag, and the 9TH
ers dropped out. Edwards drew n
eard. La Moure dealt himself. five
yards, and the betting commenced.
Men with revolvers kept the crowd
from the table. After several raises
there was $1,000 in the pool private
money, besides the chips. Then the
hand was called. Edwards held three
/, kings, and La Moure had drawn q full,
three fives and q pair Of tours. He
rose to his feet and cried, Gentlemen,
this is Mckenzie county" and so it
was and Is called. The game lasted
eighteen hours, and La Moure and
VIM were carried shoulder high
around the town, which saw no sleep
that night. The. cards held by La
Moure are to be found among the ar
chives of the county; labeled la
