Alcazar.

There are many laughs coming to
those who see Harry Hilliard at the
Aicazar this week in Are you Ma
SOM" The stock company opened
with the play last evening. Hilliard
in his female impersonation was cas-
ily the applause winner of the array
At the end of the second act there
were as many curtain calls as Tetraz-
zini gets after the mad scene in 'sLu-
cia'' at the Tivoli and Hilliard was the
particular target at which most of the
plaudits were aimed. He was not the
entire show but was a large part of
1t. The people who talk about the
play to-day will say more about him
than about all the others combined.
But Craig was brisk and not too fond
of horse play in the role of Percy
Maher was funny as Bloodgood-
Conness as Halton was not bad. The
situations kept the audience in a
laughing mood most of the time. The
men in the cast made more of their
chances than the women.
The demand for "Old Heidelberg
is so insistent that it will BE revived
next Monday upon the same scale as
before and with the same cast. 1t
is the greatest artistic success in the
Alcazar's history. The Middleman"
is postponed.

Family Row In Court.

A family row in boarding house
kept by j. A. Thompson and his wife
terminated in suit for damages in
Justice of the Peace Daniels court
yesterday afternoon. The Hannas
brought suit against the Thompsons
to recover S299 which they aver is due
them for damages sustained for de-
priving them of the use of their
apartments.
According to the testimony on both
sides, the house was the scene of fire.
quent quarreling. All parties con-
cerned admit this and seem proud OF
the fact. The Bannas say the Thomr-
sons locked them out of the apart
ments and therefore deprived them of
the privileges which they paid for in
advance. The case took UP all of
Judge Daniels afternoon, and after
hearing all the testimony he decided
to take the case under advisement
Then the warning clans filed out of
the courtroom. Mrs. Hanna and Mrs
Thompson are sisters, but they looked
daggers at each other as they made
their escape.

at retail, but she had also informed
him that she hoped to be spared the
aff1iction of ever seeing his face again.
yet she clung to the portrait which
he had given to her in the first flush
Of their marital bliss. If she did not
want TO see his countenance in the
flesh, why did she keep its limned pre-
sentiment where it confronted her
daily? There could be only one an
swer to the query. She still loved
him.
Hugging that sweet impression to
his soul Mr.. Carr went to 919A Fol-
som street last Sunday evening and in
conciliatory tone requested admit
tance. The response was vinegary
negative. supplemented with threat
that II he did not at once begone the
police would be summoned At which
Mr. Carr laughed softly and assured
himself that she didn't mean a word
of it, but was merely angling for fur
ther Establishment. Instead of giving
her gentle insincerity, however, he
committed the fatal indscretion of
indulging in sarcasm and informing
her of his opinion that if she didn't
love him she wouldn't keep his pic
ture. An instant later the air was
freighted with articles of his wearing
apparel hurled at him from the win
dow and when the textile ammuni-
ton was exhausted out came his por-
trait. Then the window was slammed
shut.
Mr.. Carr was viciously kicking his
picture and loudly proclaiming his in
tention to serve in like n1aner the per>
son who threw it at him when Pa
trolmen Thompson and Nolan took
him in for malicious mischief and dis,
turbing the peace. Judge Fritz Is re-
serving sentence.
You'll come with me-" said Patrol
man Alpers to Patrick Bean, found
drunk and incapable of pedestrianizing.
I'll do nothing of the kind said Pat
rick Bean to Patrolman Alpers But he
did something of the kind, and when
Judge Conlan said to him, Guess I'll
give you thirty days" he retorted by
exclaiming Guess you'll do nothing of
the kind" And again he was wrong.
When the case of eleven women
charged with having visited a poolroom
in a Polk street stationery store was
called before Judge Mogan only six of
the defendants responded, so the bail
of the absent five, amounting to 500
apiece, was ordered forfeited and bench
warrants issued for their arrest. Four
of those who did appear in court were
middle-aged and did not attempt to
hide their features, but the remaining
two were young and thickly veiled. The
arresting policemen testified that they
made the raid after woman in their
employ had purchased a ticket from
Mrs. Grace Schwartz, wife of the man
who owned the stationery store, but as
the feminine detective did not appear
to prosecute the case went over till
next Saturday. Mrs. Schwartz, charged
with having sold pools. has demanded
a jury trial.

Clara Smith and Frank Lawrence were
also accused of visiting lottery place.

tenance of twenty-five more beds in the
County Hospital. DR.. Ward said there
were 46S patients in the institution and
thirty on the waiting list Ward said

FOLLOWS STORM
Falling Temperatures Are
Reported From Southern
Portion of the State

LOS ANGELES. Feb. 6.-The storm
which has hovered over Southern Cali
fornia for several days has passed and
has been followed by clear. cool wealth
er. The temperature tonight is the
lowest of the winter and should the
wind abate frost may fall in the low
lands. The mountains back of Pasa-
dena are covered with snow, the result
of last nights precipitation, which in
this city amounted to about an inch OF
rain.
Railroads have repaired the breaks
caused by washouts and tonight 1t is
announced by both the Santa Fe and
the Southern Pacific that many delayed
trains will reach here tomorrow. The
Southern Pacific brought in several
long overdue trains to-day.
The total rainfall to date is TO- SO
inches, compared with L. SO at this time
last year.
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 6-Rain continues
to fall in showers. Last night 40 of an
inch was added to the fall, accom-
panied by high wind. This morning a
heavy shower continued for two hours.
For the storm the figures are ABB; for
the season, 9.02, an excess of 3.21 over
the hfty-year normal. All the big
reservoirs in the county are being fill
ed. The San Diego River is 200 feet
wide and four feet deep. The Tia
Juana River is 400 feet wide and five

after searching far and wide he dis
covered her among the defendants
awaiting trial in Judge Fritz's court,
the charge against her being that of
drunkenness. Twice did he attempt to
open verbal communication with her
and twice was he repulsed by vigi-
liant bailiff, and then in Swedish dia-
lect he loudly proclaimed his inten-
ton to burst in the door OF his domi-
cile if he were not permitted to ask
her for the key.
