Tom OberTe Benefit

Probably no more popular actor ever
played in Los Angeles than Tom
Oberle, for whom benefit has been
arranged for Tuesday afternoon, Oc-
tober 10. An idea of the excellent
character of this entertainment may
be had from the mention made OF 1t
in the Belasco News as follows:
aside from the object of the per-
formance, the bill will be of such a
varied and high-class character that
It will pack the Belasco theater to
overflowing.
"One of the numbers will be a min
strel first part in which will be seen
all the prominent actors of the Belasco
and Burbank stock companies, in addi-
tion to which dozen or more An
gelenos will disclose their talents as
testers.
"Then, too, another number on the
program will be the temperance on
the stage Of Lillian Burkhart, who will
have the assistance of George w. Bar
mum and Richard Vivian of the Be-
lasco theater stock company.
"The Belasco and Burbank COM
panies will each contribute an act of
some favorite play
Music lovers will be delighted with
the minstrel first part in which such
eminent singers as Max Heinrich,
Mackenzie Gordon of San Francisco,
and others of equal eminence in the
musical world will be heard. They will
be blacked UP, too, just like AL. Levy,
and some other popular citizens of Los
Angeles"

George Ade's W.T.

George AIDE recently attended per-
fornance of "The Sultan of Sulu" and
was asked to write criticism Of his
own work. Among other things he
said: "I have witnessed other perform
ances of this musical play. The show
at the Grand is much better than the
one 1 saw last spring in Boston. This
Improvement is readily accounted for
by the members of the company, who
say that for the last six months the
author and composer have been kept
out of the way. No doubt a more pro-
longed absence will prove highly bene-
fetal to all parties concerned"
The following is George AIDES idea
of "Frenzied Finance" as embodied in
q new verse he has written for XII
Ram In his "Sultan Of Sulu":
awe have no tainted money
And we think it very funny
That any one should ask a man
Just how his pile was made.
No Amalgamated Lawson
With his daily wire from Boston,
And as for Rockefeller's game
We don't care how it's played.
No Equitable rumpus
Tho man who gets our hard earned dough
VIII have to be peach.
And when the public hollers
For its twenty thousand dollars
We have no Chauncey M
TO make an after-dinner speech"
CHORUS:
"And that is why, you understand,
I love my own, my native land"

wants of the audiences.
CHUTBS-This afternoon at Chutes
park Manfredo Chiaffarelli, the great
italian band director. one of the fore
most in the world, will open his sea-
sons engagement in Los Angeles.
: Chiaffarelli is a familiar personality
to Los Angeles. Not so many months
ago, at the head of the Ellery band, he
captured the town, and when he went
east again there was universal regret
expressed on every hand. He directs
not with jumpingjack acrobatics.
which he abhors-but with all the in
tensity, fire and fury that his soul pos
sesses, as becomes leader Of his recog-
nized caliber, and by the power Of his
magnetic personality YIELDS the whole
band together into harmonious blend,
During the past summer the eastern
waukee, have gone Chiaffarelli mad,
and have denominated him as one OF
the greatest In the class Of military
bands.
Taddeo, his great trumpet soloist, has
been acclaimed the peer of all his class.
Groce, the trombone, is another player
who has mastered his difficult instru-
ment. Nicola Napillo, the oboe, is yet
third of remarkable excellence.
Giuseppe Giulii, the baritone, is player
of remarkable power, welding his brass
instrument as q trained singer wields
his voice.
A feature of the band, which will be
noticed at once by all musical people
who hear it, is the predominance OF
wood-wind instruments. They are the
violins OF the military band, softeninS
and toning down the heavier and more
strident voices of the brass and making
possible the production Of real and
genuine art work.
