Los Angeles herald., 1906-07-08

be no longer necessary to make
changes in the bill at the Los Angeles
| Orpheum on Saturday and Sunday to
enable acts to leave Friday night SO
that they can get to San Francisco to
open Sunday afternoon. While this
has been at times annoying to patrons
| of the Orpheum, it has been no less so
to the management, and Mr. Drown
has always done his best to secure
acts as good as the ones leaving for the
north. Those who feel inclined to crit
icize the Orpheum people severely for
these weekend changes should charge
1t to San Francisco relief"
There is an air of mystery about the
Ulrich stock company this week. Miss
Corinne Smell, leading woman, does not
appear in the cast of characters and
Miss Lillian Hayward is playing the
lead in her place PrySe MacKaye is
missing also and Frank Richardson is
doing the heavy. 1t is said by the man
agement, however, that these changes
are for this week only, and surprise
regarding the company is promised to
be announced later. 1t is rumored that
two players who have been prominent
in some of the best productions in
other stock theaters in the city have
been lured to the Ulrich camp. The
management, however, is "namin' no
names"

Liebler & Co., who have released
| Kyrle Bellew, refer to that handsome
actor as a tight wad," or words ito
that effect 1t is claimed that Bellew
hated to separate himself from a nickel.
His reluctance to pay for stamps and
kilograms and other trifles led to the
first bad feeling, which eliminated in
his being allowed to leave the George
Tyler field 1t is reported that Bellew
has been secured by Charles Dilling-
ham to appear in a new and as yet un-
named play by Hadden Chambers THAI
will be produced in New York next fall.
Clarance Kolb, of the Hotchkiss, has
developed penchant for dogs. He now
offers a reward for Dachshund, and
anyone possessing one of the right
sort will win his gratitude II he will
come forward and say so.
II want dog" said Kolb, which
is as long as l am, and no fatter. OF
course, he will match me in one way,
but in the other, we will be opposites-
! He will stretch over a lot of ground
and won't take up much air-room.
while L extend upwards long ways
but cover very little space otherwise.
Thus we will equalize."

coast when that actor played "Claud-
ian" at the Grand opera house. Mr..
Murray brought Richard Mansfield
here for the first time, and Frank Dam
