Los Angeles herald., 1905-06-18


very pretty manicure girls Colby is
handsome young attorney engaged to
beautiful cloak model. Her sister
quietly marries young Ruggles. The
manicure girls think that she has mar
ried the old man Ruggles and to gain
they plan scandal, using the old
mans name Colby thinks that 1t is his
sweetheart whose reputation is being
assailed by the manicure instead of her
sisters and the younger Ruggles is on
the point of deserting his wife because
he believes she has been in love with his
father all the time. This misunder-
standing allows of tremendously funny
complications.
Matinees this afternoon and next Sat-
urday.
CHUTES. Donatelli's program at the
Chutes today includes several selections
from the greatest operas. A number OF
minor changes have been made in the
band lately, Strengthening the wood

ing the seating. so as to bring out the
best possible effects. In this way the
brilliant quality of the brass instru-
ments Is brought out without their
piercing sharpness, and the wood-winds
furnish the sweet and soft melodies of
every strain. Another fact, perhaps not
noticed by casual observers, is that the
band is equipped with trumpets instead
of cornets, as these instruments give a
clearer. purer, more brilliant, virile tone
than the blatant, but easier played
cornet-a-piston. The list of attractions
also includes the Zarrows, in their dar-
ing cycle acts, including the Devils
Chimney performance, and the thrilling
leaping of the gap, which nearly cost
the life of one of the family two weeks
ago. A high balloon ascension, and the
coasting of the chutes on a bicycle will
conclude the day.
