CHORUS LADY MAKES A HIT
Miss Rose Stah Remains Favorite
With Patrons Of orpheum
Tbaakan

Miss Rose Stahl with her clever little
farce, 1.-The Chorus Lady" at the
Orpheum still holds the first place in
the hearts of her audience, and she was
given a warm welcome upon her first
appearance of the week last night
The bewitching little woman inter-
preted the role of Miss Patricia O'Brien
with more success, if possible. than that
of last week, and with good company
behind her she gave such a realistic
presentment of the blase chorus girl
that even the old gentlemen in the front
row were compelled to look several
times before being convinced Of the fact
that the young woman was not one OF
the real girls"
Buckner, the sensational cycling
marvel, supplied with ton of appa-
ratus and several tons of cool nerve and
daring, was the chief attraction of the
new acts o. this week. The cycling
marvel not only goes up and down
stairs on a single bicycle wheel but even
circles spiral apparatus and turns flip
fops in the air with his bicycle while
leaping from one platform to another.

ORGANIZATION Of
WOMEN IS URGED
UNITE EFFORTS IN BEHALF
OF HOME
Mrs. Frank King, President of EbelI
Club, Makes Plea for Her Sex
to Join Forces for
Good Results

"Organized effort among womtn
would solve the domestic servant
problem.
Woman is responsible for the con-
dtions surrounding the home. 1t rests
with her whether the children shall
grow up to be strong men and women
or shall have constitutions ruined by
adulterated food.
THE organized effort of women for
good can overcome organized effort for
bad
Mrs. Frank King, president of the
Ebell club in the annual presidents
address before that organization yes
terday afternoon made strong plea
for organization among women.
Mrs. King declares that upon the
woman is placed much of the respon-
siblity of eliminating evil conditions
and instituting good conditions in the
present day civilizati ton.
"Since women have been relieved of
the care of spinning and weaving and
doing the many other things which the
woman of a hundred years ago did, she
has more time for righting the wronS
conditions around her," said Mrs. King.
IF every club woman in Los Angeles
would concentrate her efforts in one di
rection there would be no need to have
children bending their backs in the
glass factory"
Mrs. King spoke of the new club
house and closed her address by ex
pressing hope that the new home will
be a house beautiful. resting on a
foundation of which each stone stands
for higher ideals, each member having
a conscious aim in life and striving to
make her surroundings reflect her aim.

SULTAN Of SULU
STILL A DELIGHT
NEW COMPANY SUSTAINS THE.
OPERA
AIDES Clever Satire Provokes Much
MIrth at the Mason-ProductIon
Loses None Of Its Former
Effectiveness

"The Sultan of Sulu," George AIDES
clever satire on the United States as a
colonial power. is a stage classic by this
time and can be looked upon as one of
those welcome annual visitors to whose
coming city bids n cordial welcome,
1t opened its week at the Mason to a
thronged house last night, and the con-
tfnual roars of laughter proved that
the witty lines and telling humor had
lost none of their effectiveness since its
former trip out west. The very fact
that Sulu is vastly nearer here than II
is to the east and that we of the west
know the results of it's benevolent
assimilation" but makes the opera the
stronger with us.
The further fact that almost a new
company presents the affair this time
also adds an interest to it's coming.
Many play, and especially an opera,
is made by the people who first present
it, and often for whom 1T is written.
When it passes OH to newer hands
comes the supreme test. "Sulu" has
met this test admirably. and Is even
better for the change in cast, in that
we get 1t from another view point and
are likely to take more note of the opera
itself than of the people presenting it,
which is not always the case in reverse,
since frequently attention Is absorbed
by the well known singers rather than
by what they sing.
That "Sulu" doesn't suffer in the
hands of the present company goes
without saying. Madison Corey is
known as worthy successor to Henry
w. Savage, and his standard is set by
his predecessor. His company is there
fore well balanced, strong i'm voices and
looks and fully up in all the stage bust
ness. The whole show is presented in
excellent fashion and Is a delight.
Albert Mahar succeeds Frank Moulin
as the sultan. He plays the part along
different lines-broader, perhaps but
none the less funny. Mignon Demarest
as Henrietta possibly does not quite
measure up to Miss Berri or Cheridah
Simpson of luxurious memory, but she
is acceptable, nevertheless. Nellie V.
Nichols as Chiquita, wife No. 1, is clever
and pretty and as nimble as the best,
while Maude Earle, last year in the
chorus, is as good in the Galulu role as
one could desire. L. F. Tucker as Col.
Budd is all right, and E. Colt Albertson
has an excellent voice which shows to
advantage in the Hardy role.
Thus the main parts are in good
hands and are we'll looked after. The
chorus is shapely, pretty and sings well
and the minor roles are up to the rest.
The whole performance is on high
level. and settings and costumes CORE
spond. The cocktail and "R-E-Morse'
are as popular as ever, and the best OF
good feeling surrounds the whole. II
Ia a good show, we'll given, and the
Mason's week ought to be most jolly.

BELASCO HAS ANOTHER
PRIZE IN "PRINCE KARL

The Relasco attraction this week
proved to be a box of surprises. What
was advertised as a romantic play
turns out to be an uproarious farce with
a sweet, delightful romance thrown in.
The stock company has landed another
prize in prince Karl" which it will
be difficult to match.
The piece has the broad license of i'm
probability which is allowed all plays
of the species, but the story is we'll
enough defined to make the audience
follow it with the closest interest. 1t
concerns German prince who assumes
the character of courier for the Ameri-
can heiress whom he loves. He an
nounces that the prince has been
drowned in the river. The lady finally
discovers his disguise and the advan-
ture of course ends happily.
Joseph Galbraith, in the role of the
prince. displays a remarkable person
ality. and with well-handled German
dialect he is irresistible. If ever the Be
lasco sold out on matinee days, this
week they should need extra chairs in
the aisles. Galbraith in the first act
wears, as all princes evidently do, the
same style of clothes adopted by the
men who sit in the circus cages with
the wild animals. He looks fearfully
and wonderfully attractive, in spite of
q tendency to stoutness. His acting is.
seriously, extraordinary. Each week
he seems better than before until his
cleverness is marvellous.
Thomas Oberle had the smallest role
among the men and he made it the
most amusing. The fact that he is to
take an enforced vacation soon has had
no i'll effect upon his art. William
Yerance played the part of "Spotts"
with a delightful appreciation of it's
humor, and was a favorite with the
audience. Howard Scott was warmly
welcomed and was excellent as usual.
The evening introduced a new actress
to the Los Angeles theatergoers. Miss
Louise Royce distinguished a character
role by a May Irwin sort of sparkling
fun and promises to be big addition
to the stock company. Juliet Crosby
presented another vision of exquisite
acting and charming gowns. Bertha
Blanchard did we'll, but her part was
more than foil for the leading wo-
man.

AWARDS CONTRACT FOR

THE EDISON ELECTRIC COMPANY
MAKES SUCCESSFUL BID
Improvement Association Urges ln1n1e-
diate Action That Work May BE
Completed Before Christmas Holl-
days-Price Same as for Broadway

The contract for lighting Spring
street with the new system of cleo
troliers was awarded yesterday to the
Edison Electric company, which bid
3% cents a kilowatt hour for the

ject of lighting, is anxious to have
the work begun at once and finished
