ADULTS ENJOY
CH|LO'S PLAY
LITTLE PRINCESS" FULL OF
HEART SITUATIONS
san Francisco Actress Takes Miss
James Old Role and Does Ex-
qulsIte Iy-5eIasco Audi
ence Pleased

Adult performers take a rest or else
are used as supernumeraries In the per-
Torrance of THE Little Princess" at
the Belasco this week. 1t Is an evening
with the children. This fact makes it
a trihe lacking in the professionalism
which theater audiences have learned
to accept as nature through long years
of training, but 1t gives IL also naivete
and charm that nothing on the
Belasco stage has had for many
months
The story is a delightful wisp of an
affair with a plot as scant as the cos
tunes of the children In the garnet
scene. Little Sara Crewe Is rich and
| liked and called The Little Princess;
she loses her money and only those who
love her cling to the poor child, who
sleeps in the attic with the rats and
does the errands; then she Is rich
again.
1t is a childrens story through and
through Most grown ups will find
some of the situations trifle artificial,
but young and old will find every detail
delightful and a most refreshing occa-
sion after weeks of problems and
romantic dramas. There are no love
scenes of the stereotyped sort. Joseph
Galbraith and Eugene That's Lawton
are never in evidence. 1t turns out
right in the end only because children's
stories always do.
The play gave the child actresses Of
Los Angeles an excellent opportunity
to display their charms. Above them
all little Fay Banter shone out like
Mars at perihelion Her performance
was in every respect remarkable. In
bred in her is an artistic sense which
outdoes every adult member of the
Belasco company, with possibly one or
two exceptions. This charm she never
| forgets, for it is a part of her.
In the star role of Sara, Miss Fife
Bond of San Francisco gave a beauti-
| full performance. Sometimes. she was
almost too sweet, but in the pathetic
scenes she showed talent which made
the audience suspect that she was old
| err than the fifteen years which she
looked. Her work in the second act
in the "lets pretend" scene was ex-
quisite and this was made all the more
remarkable because the scene is one
which in itself gives nothing to the
story and would mean little to the au-
dience.
Dot Bernard portrayed the scullery
maid and was enthusiastically applaud
ed Her makeup was also an excellent
| feature. Bessie Buskirk was some
what too large for her role, but played
1t with great ability.
OF the regular members of the Belas-
co company it can be said that they
! performed their extra parts with credit
Margaret Langham looked beautiful in
the role of Amelia. Robert Dempster
| impaired wonderful color to the role OF
Ram Das and showed his superior
ability in character work. Richard
Vivian in about fifteen lines was ex-
celent. Fanchon Everhart had the
longest role of any of these players
and made Miss Minchen truly the ogre
all children have dreamed her to be.

EAST SIDE LAKE
Seeks Oblivion In Park Immediately
After QuarreI-Dauehters Hint
at Mysterious Motive Back
of the Tragedy

Incensed and enraged because her
husband refused to pay any attention
to her threats to commit suicide, Mrs
Salina Sloan, whose former home was
at East Main and tombstone streets,
committed suicide by drowning in the
lake in Eastside park about 2:30 yester-
day morning.
According to the statement made by
Harry Sloan, the son of Mrs. Sloans
husband, his father returned home at
late hour Sunday night and there
were some words between the husband
and wife.
Shortly before she left the house to
go to the park where she committed
self murder, she is alleged to have told.
her husband that she was about to
kill herself.
Sloan is said to have paid no atten
ton to the threat, as his wife was in
the habit of making such statements.
When Sloan went to his work as plas-
'terer on one of the downtown build
ings, his wife had not returned, nor
bad she left any note for him.
He went to work as usual thinking
that his wife was at the home of her
daughters, just two blocks away.

lake and with the assistance of John

to search for the body.
A light shawl worn by Mrs. Sloan
was the nrst trace of the missing
woman. 1t was found a few feet from
the bandstand on the edge of the wall
around the lake.
This led the searchers to believe that
the body was in the vicinity and after
few minutes the body was brought to
the surface by Browns rake.
The remains of the woman were
found about $3.50 yesterday and were
taken to Paul's Undertaking parlors on
Downey avenue.

An air of mystery was cast about
the unfortunate affair by the daugh-
ters of the decedent. According to the
story of Mrs. Esther West, the older
of the two daughters, her mother had
been in poor health for five years, the
age of the deceased being AZ. The other
children left by Mrs. Sloan are Homo

the daughters, the true reason for the
suicide will come out, will be held this
morning at 10 o'clock

A Brahmin missionary, Marayan
Krishna, filling the pulpit OF Souls
church, Episcopal, in Kansas City. by
invitation last week said, in the course
OF talk.
"We're overworked with Christian
missionaries. Ninety per cent OF those
we have are eeneeless. Furthermore, we
don't want your religion and your holy
book. We have more religion OF our own
than we know what to do with-a eur.
plus that We would like to export. So l
pray you Americans keep your so-ca!led
missionaries at home. II you want to
Christianize US, send US men that are
qualified to teach. philosophers that know
their own scriptures. Till then the
Vedas, our four books Of philosophy, are
good enough for 10.

A HERALD representative recently took
a walk over the Hopkins Addition, on
the north end, and was surprised at the
amount Of improvement going on in that
vicinity, and charmed with the location.
Situated at the head of Broadway.
overlooking the city below, with a mag,
nificent view of the river and harbor,
this tract is attracting superior class of
home builders, and is certain to become
the fashionable residence district of Alb.
erdeen as the city grows.
The owners of this addition. Willis G.
and Geo. B. Hopkins have not been
pushing the eale of this property, but
have been quitely improving it, getting
it in shape to attract a desirable class OF
purchasers, and during the past year
they have expended considerable money
in opening it up. They have graded and
planked Broadway from Tenth to Twelfth
street. and Twelfth street between Broad.
way and X street. In clearing and grad.
ing they have used donkey engine and
dynamite almost constantly for the past
year.
The results show the wi dom of their
method. The lots cold are being OF

homes, among which are noted those Of
