ber ID In addition to being the only

him. He was willing to exchange them
for bright yellow gold, and not being
satisfied with the amount he could
make from his turkeys he laid in a
stock by purchasing from friends. Then
he hied to Los Angeles.
He arrived here November 27, and
after having his birds roperly inspected
by Meat Inspector Hughes he proceed
ed to Ryan's place and informed him
that the turkeys he craved so greatly
were here. Ryan expressed astonish-
ment. Then he expressed regret. He
had not ordered the turkeys. Yes he
had, too but they were five days late.
He had wanted them by November 90,
but he could not use them that late in
the game.
At last he consented to allow Max
we'll to put them in his turkey yard,
and. according to Maxwell, 1853 healthy
birds were driven through the gates.
Birds Become Sick
But, strange to say. the climatic con-
ditions of Southern California did not
agree with the birds. They are said TO
have wilted and died, with the result
that four days later Ryan informed
Maxwell that in all 140 of his cherished
birds had passed into the great beyond.
This did not please Maxwell, and, in

were told him. Tales of midnight

Ryan's, while the produce dealer was
said to have been seen phantom-like
behind them with large stick, gently
shooing the birds onward.
This set the detectives thi4king, with
the result that Tom Hood, a nigh.
watchman employed by Ryan, is said
to have confessed that he really saw
the real Ryan drive the birds into his
own corral. The birds were then ex-
amined and, behold, more than 200 OF
them did not have their wings clipped
while all those claimed by the commits
sion merchant were minus a part of at
least one wing. That was enough, and

Returns to Los Angeles to Live Down
Disgrace of Serving Term
in Prison

Col Griffith ]. Griffith, just out of
San Quentin after serving twenty
months for shooting his wife in the
Hotel Arcadia in Santa Monica. ar
rived in Los Angeles on the owl train
yesterday morning and after joining
party of friends at the station drove
away to his residence.
Col. Griffith left the train at the
River station, as he preferred not to
arrive at the Arcade depot, thinking a
number of persons, driven by curiosity
might be there to watch his arrival.
He brought with him the manuscript
of the book he has been preparing,
treating of his life i'm prison. He re-
fused to state what his intentions for
the future are, beyond saying that his
properties will demand great deal
of his attention for the next few
months.
Friends Of Griffith notice great
change i'm the former jovial million

head and the black mustache he for
merly wore has been shaved His fig

PRESENT PLAY
FOR BENEFIT
Amateurs in Difficult Parts of "Mer.
chant of Venice" Surpass Former
Production of "PygmaIion
anda Galatea"

A good performance of THE Mer-
chant of Venice" was given last night
at Temple Auditorium.
The acting distinguished the players
above everything else The movement
of their hands and the expression of
their faces were so expressive that they
told far more than their mere words
Il. w. Lewis, as Shylock, gave good
Interpretation of this character He
made not merely a part but living,
breathing being out of him and stamped
his own personality upon the greedy
and cruel Jew.
Miss e. Madeline Frink gave Portla
a sweetness and winning power, and al
though her acting was quiet and unas-
suming, it did not lack strength She
probably did her best, however, dis
guised as the doctor.
Miss Marie A. Neary gave very nat
ural presentation of Jessica and made
one wish that she could have appeared
more on the stage, William Graves
carried the part of Antonio well. That
generous, kind-hearted old merchant Is
a hard person TO impersonate and not
to turn his kindly deeds into melodra-
ma, but Mr. Graves was all that could
be desired.

friend was very natural. Will Mason
as Launcelot was fine. He kept the
house roaring, and although he looked
ridiculous, he carried the idea of his
quickness and brightness so that that
seemed to be his great point.
V. r. Patterson as old Gobbo, the
blind man, gave the part a character
it does not usually have. He is usually
supposed to have been a bright old
man, but Mr.. Patterson seemed to con-
vey the idea of foolishness as well.
Nevertheless he did well,

Price as ,Stephano, A. Robertson as
Balthazar. and Miss Letha M. Hickey
as page, were well taken and they all
deserve special mention.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-12-11
Costumes Good

The costumes were quite correct and
were new and fresh, and what was
more to the point, fitted well. The
scenery was all that could be desired.
Much credit is due to W. w. Heath
cote. M. A., who had charge of the
performance, which was given by the
Dramatic club of the Broadway de-
partment store.
There were only a few hitches and
they were slight, while the careful
training and especially the individual
effort and study each one appeared to
have put upon his particular character
would be highly creditable to a profess
sional.
In comparison with "Pygmalion and
Galatea,'' which was given few
months ago by the same people, there
has been a marked Improvement, al
though that was we'll given and at the
time seemed good for amateurs, but
they surpassed 1t last night.
The house was crowded and the pro-
ceeds viii be given to the Broadway
Department store Benefit association.

School Notes

Two new pupils were enrolled last
week, one Fred Jakobi, being assigned
to the first grade and the other, his
sister Annie, to the third.
The enrolment for the six months
past has been larger than for the cor
responding six months of last year and
the average attendance has been much
larger. The estimated average per
cent of attendant for the period men,
toned of the present term is about SO
per cent. The regular attendance and
few tardies have enabled the schools
to work uninterruptedly and with the
best results.
The date of the high school enter
tainment has been postponed from the
10th inst, to the 23rd. Announcement
of the program will be made later.
1t might not be out of place to sug-
gest to the parents of children of the
sixth and seventh grades and the high
school that it would be very profitable

for each pupil to devote at least one
hour each evening of the school week to-
home study. 1t is especially necessary
that high school pupils do home study.
1t is impossible for even the best high
school pupil properly to prepare the
work in the short time allotted to study
on the daily program. The teacher
and parent are responsible in the same
degree for the child's progress; one
cannot accomplish results without the
cooperation and assistance of the
other. Too many outside attractions
for the young and unwary during the
school term are not conducive to the
best work on the part of pupils. Sys-
tematic study is the only means of ac-
complishing the purpose for which the
schools were created.
