MUSIC AND DRAMA
symphony Concert a De!Iaht

The symphony ochestra'S concert at
the Mason yesterday was largely given
by its sooist, Herr Anton Hekking, cell
list. Not that the orchestra did not do
its share; it never played better But
the desire to hear Herr Hekking was
so overwhelming and his work as SOLO
ist so superb that it rather overshad-
owed everything else. Still, had 1t not
been for the superb accompaniment
work of the players ensemble Hekking
could not have shone to so great adj
vantage; thus honors are even after all.
HeklSing's selections were thoroughly
in harmony with the feelings of his au-
dience, too. His first was that exceed
ingly difficult and musical concerto, OPP.
49, by Saint -Saens, written for cello,
and in it his magnificent technique
was exploited to the last degree. 1t is
a marvel of composition. thorough and
masterful and the cellist never lost a
note of it. His intonations, phrasing
and sympathetic Interpretation were
beyond words.
The other solo numbers were group
of three. the Bach air from his Suite
in ID major, Schumann's immortal
"Traumerei'' and Peppers "Papillon"
lcButterfy'O. All three We're superbly
given. PerhS rs the most delicacy was
shown i'm the second, which requires the
lightest and most facile touch. He held

We're too impalpable for mortal ear to
follow though the eye could still see
the bow move. Herr Hekking is the
King of cellists, and no one has ever
done better solo work here.
The orchestra's interpretations were
confined, aside from his accompani-
ments, which We're flawless, to the bal

ELKS' SHRINE IDEA
WINS FAVOR QUICKLY
CITY HALL End FRATERNAL
OFFICIALS GRATIFIED
Fenced-In Area at Griffith Park Set
Aside for AntIered AnimaIs-WilI
Accommodate Scores of Them in
ideal Surroundings

Mayor Owen McAleer's plan to estab-
lish a national elks' paddock, which
should also be a shrine for the Elks'
brotherhood of the United States in
Griffith park was received with agree
able surprise yesterday in fraternal,
city hall and other circles.
The project was sprung Thursday
when about sixty Elks were the guests
of the mayor in trip to the park In
tally-hos and autos.
The occasion was notable one,
Mayor-elect Arthur Harper and several
city officials being present at the bar
becue which preceded the speech-mak-
ing.
The mayor himself was highly graft
fled at the reception which the idea re-
ceived. He was congratulated by the
members of the order, who will initiate
him at the next meeting. The mayors
brother is prominent in Ohio elkdom.
The next thing to do, as many have
pointed out, is to obtain as many dona-
lions of the antlered animal as possible
Some can doubtless be obtained from
Golden Gate park. Dozens can be OBJ
tanned from Californians who have
hunting preserves or clubs.
The fenced-in acreage intended for
propagating elk in Griffith park is re-
garded ac ideal and the herds will null
tiply there.
'"The time may come" said the may
or, when we can supply all Elks'
lodges that want live or dead elk with
the noble animal"

STREET INSPECTORS WORD
"GOES" WITH THE BOARD

One city contractor learned yesterday
from the board of public works that
it's employees are supreme in the in
spection business.
M. S. Cummings, who has the con-
tract for improving New Hampshire
avenue from Tenth to Twelfth streets
has nursed a grievance against In
spector j. A. w. Johnson, who does
street work inspecting for the board,
and made formal complaint against
what he termed unfair methods.
The inspector had protested against
the grade of gravel which was being
put down there and ordered work
stopped. Cummings brought some
samples from the rejected gravel with
him, but Johnson was at the hall first.
The contractor was told that the
board sustained it's inspectors on points
such as the present one and advised
him to change the gravel in accordance
to the inspectors suggestions.
The board recently issued a special
order to guard against substitution of
inferior materials in street work and
Cummings is not the only one who
has complained against rigid over
sight.
Meanwhile the property owners
stand by the board and the inspectors.

PARENTS SEARCH
FOR DAUGHTER
Prefers the City to Life on a Ranch
and Mother Will Look for
Her at Cheap
Theaters

Where is Florence Kelly, II, and
pretty? Has she---? The horrible
fear that fills the hearts of her par
ents with anguish, but which they yet
dare not express took them to the
Central police station last night in
quest of some aid in finding their
prodigal child.
The girl Is a country-bred maiden
and lived with her parents at Graham
station. Like all of her kind, seques-
tered away from the lights and super
fetal but alluring gayety of q city, she
lcnged to explore the mystic avenue
that leads from her home in the coun-
try to busy life-teeming city, which
beckoned to her with it's towers and
steeples by day and wooed her at night
with it's myriad twinkling lights.
Wednesday she secretly left her
home. She left only a note to her
parents, saying that she had gone to
Los Angeles ITO enjoy life'
She has not been heard from since,
although attaches of Chutes park say
the girl has been seen there in COM
pany with woman. She has also said
to have been seen at skating Kinks
and dancing halls.
The parents fear the girl has thrown
herself into the madly rushing whlrl-
pool of dissolute pleasures.
The girl is said to have often ex-
pressed the ambition to go on the
stage. With this desire uppermost in
her mind it is thought probable she
will attempt to secure employment in
the chorus of one of the cheap variety
houses, and search will be made for
her among these amusement places.
Being pretty it is expected she will
have no difficulty in finding a place
| as a chorus girl
Florence has always longed for a
life of what she called pleasure" said
the fearful mother last night land
never dreaming that her desire would
carry her to such an end, L fear
did not caution her enough about the
wiles Of city life. L thought her talk
about going on the stage and the de-
sires she expressed to live in the city
were only impetuosity, and L gave
little heed to it.
"She is not naturally bad but like
so many country girls, she grew tired
of what seemed to be a dull, uninter-
esting life, and she has sought the joy
that seems to be the lot of the woman
OF the world. But 1 fear, oh, so much,
for the girl when she finds that her
quest for pleasure has been only a
wearying race after an Elusive will
o-the-wisp."
