result of the systematic advertising
done by the Chamber Of Commerce
during the past year that, there will
be a large influx Of prospective set
tiers come to this valley at the con-

5UCHTEL AND GABBERT

On first thought perhaps the un-

Chancellor Buchtel's nomination as
very strong one, on second thought
he will change his opinion radically.
More than year ago we took
strong ground against the appearance
OF Chancellor Buchtel upon the po-
litical platform, on the premise that
he was not serving the cause of which
he was great spokesman by rescend-
ing TO partisal politics. At the time
we questioned whether il was any
stumping the state for Peabody or
simply because he was so intensely
partisan that he would forget his
cloth for the time being and become
partisan prelate.

of the Republican party for govern

in the last campaign was purely par

the ability of Hon. Samuel N Wheel

PLAYA DEL REY

Announcement that e. P. Clark,

tracted for the erection this summer of
a residence to cost $500 has had the
effect of giving a decided impetus to

structure will be unique in design and
it is to be located at what is consid
cred the most picturesque spot fronting

The work of laying an addition to the
floor of the auditorium rink has been
completed and the Pierce people claim
to have the largest and best equipped
roller skating rink in Southern Cali
fornia. The rink has II floor space OF
90X20O feet, allowing seven laps to the
mile. This, along with the fact that no
admittance fee is charged into the
building and because special transport

VENICE

1t is the purpose of the executive
committee having the future welfare of
Venice in charge to have a continual
ton of important events in the form of
amusements during the coming season
and to give an opportunity at least once
a month for fiesta and confetti battle,
with an extensive display of fireworks
every Saturday night.
In the matter of building 1t is pro-
crossing very satisfactorily. yet it is
evidenced from the present demand
that there should be a great develop
ment in the building of residences con-
structed for the future. Every real
estate owner is now urged to proceed
Immediately to build cottages, and
those who are holding property for a
speculation should be warranted in i'm
proving the same by erecting thereon
buildings which will pay good interest
on the investment and be in demand;
therefore the wideawake real estate
agents are urging their clients to build
cottages.
Los Angeles-Pacific railway engineers
and surveyors have laid out site for
the proposed depot and ticket office of
the company. and it is said the work of
building the structure will be COM
menced within three weeks. The loca-
ton selected has not been announced,
but it is generally believed that the
depot will face on Trolleyway imme-
diately south of the Midway.

LONDON, June 9.-Coquelin is again
over here full of activity. Yesterday
for instance, he was reciting at the
French embassy, also at Miss Alexan-
der's musical matinee. Later i'm the
evening he played at the new Royalty
theater in "Capus Notre Jeunesse."
BY the way, Miss Alexander, with
her darky dialect rectals, brought
down the house i'm her entertainment at
the new Royalty. Her representations
are quite unique. Sweet little May
de Sousa sang most appropriately of
love and George Grossmith jr., was adj
mirable in his dancing of the lancers.
Beerbchm Trees ascendency from al
plane where he had been an object Of
severe criticism to a PEDESTAL of un-
qualified praise was the most notable
event of the week in the theatrical
world. In his presentation of Michael
Mortons play, Colonel Newcome,"
adapted from Thackeray's story, he
scored q success which called forth ia
vorable comment even from the critics
who a fortnight ago were relentless
In the denunciation of his ability as
an actor The storm of criticism ended
in proverbial burst of sunshine. but
Trees most ardent admirers are not de-
nying that he has been fortunate In
the selection of a vehicle with which to
combat the recent attacks and remove
the stigma placed upon his reputation.
Morton's adaptation of the quaint
and pathetic story of the gallant SOL
dier whom Thackeray described as a.
man with the heart of little child Is
highly credltable piece of work from
the wealth of the material which the
book affords. He has chosen incidents
in constructing the play which give an
intelligent outline of the original plot,
At the same time it is not disjointed
To the story, which is almost devoid
of dramatic interest, he has given a
1uster of intense situations which dis
pels what otherwise might prove a tire
some portrayal of the lovable but sim
pie character of the colonel. Each act
is so dependent on what comes after
that the interest of the audience con-
tinues and when the denouement is
reached its conception is found to be
work of art.
Trees style of acting is peculiarly
well suited to the portrayal of the rolel
Of the colonel. In voice, figure, and
mannerisms he has a combination of
elements that produce a splendid and
typical impersonation of the charac-
ter as described by Thackeray's define
ations. He breathes the spirit of the
age of chivalry in which Col. Newcome
lived. He acts the part naturally and
without effort, although 1t would bel
easy to make the role forced, stilted,
and awkward. There is every prom
ise of the play having a bright future
in store

COP is OFF IN HIS CHINESE
Celestial Arrested by Sleuth While
Working Among His countrymen

WASHINGTON, June 9.-Because q
policeman was unable to distinguish
between a policy game and collec-
tion for the relief of the San Francisco
sufferers, Tuck Cheong, one of the most
reputable Chinese merchants in the
city, was arrested Saturday and forced
to spend several hours in a police
station cell on charge of conducting
a policy game.
Under the firm name of Tuck Cheong
& Co., Cheong has a place of business
at 324 Pennsylvania avenue, and has a
wide reputation among his fellow coun-
trymen In the United States. When
the Chinese association of New York
decided to raise funds throughout the
country for the benefit of the stricken
Chinese in San Francisco, Cheong was
Iappointed to collect the funds in Wash
ington.
He has daily been making rounds
among his fellow celestials, securing
from them whatever amounts they de-
sired to give. These donations were
jotted down in a little book carried
for the purpose, and Cheong had no
idea that the book would get him into
trouble.
Saturday a local sleuth saw the
Chinaman going from one laundry to
another, ana decided tnat CnlneSe
policy game was in operation. He
caught Cheong in the act. as he sup
posed. He saw him enter laundry
on Tenth street and, after a short talk
with the proprietor in his native tongue,
take out the book and jot down some
Chinese hieroglyphcs.
This convinced the officer. and he ar
rested Cheong, carting him off to the
station despite his vehement but un-
Iintelligible eXpostulations. AT the sta
ton Cheong gave collateral and was
released With orders to appear in court
this morning.
Attorney Hosea Moulton. who knows
the Chinaman, said yesterday MORN

ly as given above: 81 have known

justice has been done him. He is d
