LOS ANGELES MAN
IS PATRIOTIC
Tells the People of the National Capt.
tai About the Wonderful
Growth of the Angel
City

VIII D. Gould, the well known attor-
ney of Los Angeles, now in the east on
a visit, is quoted as follows IN the
Washington Herald:
"I am here to tell you that Los An
geies is the coming town of the Pacific
coast. People in this part of the Union
ought to get down their maps and see
the location of Los Angeles, and then
thew would realize that l am not a
weaver of romance or an enthusiast.

in the thirty-fiVe years of my residence
there, and / will live to see 1t double
again. Notice it's place on the map;
see what a short haul 1t Is to tideWater

the distance by northern routes from
san Francisco to New York, and by

the first port as you come from the
Panama isthmus, and are bound to be
the greatest gamer on the Pacific by
the construction of the canal.

MUSICAL COMEDY is
GENERALLY LIKED BY
BIG GRAND AUDIENCE

The mother-in-law joke, with the
mistaken identity joke, the boozy
clergyman joke and the irascible
French count joke, all jumbled up to-
gether, go to make quite a comedy
melange at the Grand this week. 1t
was called "a Stranger in Town." but
the title is excusable. The general re-
suit, however, was highly delightful to
large audiences yesterday, and as that
is the acme of success in these de-
generate theatrical days what's the
odds?
But barring the antiquity of the ma
terial this comedy with music really
affords considerable fun of the rough
house order, and those depicting it
have full skill for all its requirements.
Rita Knight is very clever as the ad-
venturess, and strangely enough she is
pretty in refined and not a tigerish
fashion. Edna Ward is very good as a
preternaturally precocious child, who,
though in dresses we'll above her knees,
plans to elope with a Bobby boy. She
also sings in a childish voice and
dances some. Annett Peters violates
tradition in the second act by dressing
as lady's maid in pearl gray, instead
of the usual black with white trim
mings, but as she wears the black in
act one it can be from no lack of pos
NS9'oioli, anu Cti fanny INC SIaIlSS 10
grateful. She also sings. Frank Beam
ish, the leading man upon whom trou-
bles come in goodly number, is good
and he also sings. II. T. Hier has the
rather disgusting character of the
drinking minister; his voice indicates
that he came from the negro minstrel
ranks. Arthur Fitzgerald is good as
Cutting, the best friend; Jessie Bar
ringtOn makes the usual dull and un-
seeing wife; Louise Fraser is the mas
culine and naughty trouble maker, and
the rest are fully capable. So that all
told the variation from the thriller is a
welcome one, in that the comedy Offer
ing is so satisfactory.

BOY CARES
FOR AGED CRIPPLE
ACTS AS PROTECTOR OF BLIND
MAN
Wants Him to Go to Hospital and Get
Well, and offers to Take Him
Under His Wing
Again

"I want you to take care of John. He
is old weak, cannot see and has no
hands. I have been taking care of him
until now, but | think he had better
go to q hospital until he is stronger,
and then I will take care of him again."
said Joseph Talabaum, a little 13-year-
old boy to the desk sergeant at the
police station yesterday.
Leaning over the desk so he could
clearly make out the form Of the boy
whose head scarcely reached the coun-
ter, the sergeant gazed in astonishment
at him, and then turned to see what
manner of man the boy had been pro-
tecting.
A pitiful specimen met his eyes
With no hands, blind and scarcely able
to stand, an aged man stood with the
stump of one arm resting on the boys
shoulder.

when asked for an explanation of his
aged companions injuries.
HE used to own a mine at one time
and was hurt in an explosion. He had
staked my father a number Of times
and as papa is now dead and cannot
take care of him it was up to the rest
of the family. My two brothers took
care of him for a time, but they are
both working now and could not get
away, so it was up to me to do the best
l could. 1 live in Florence, Colo He
and 1 left there two weeks ago and
came to Los Angeles, but John has
grown weaker since we have been here,
and 1 guess he had better go to a hos
pital.
Has Plenty of Money
1--WE went to the Sisters hospital,
but they would not take John there,
and so we thought we would come here
and see where he could go. John has
plenty of money and can pay for any
thing he gets.
Til get room some place downtown
and wait until he gets better, and then
I'll take care of him again.
Won by the brave spirit of the little
fellow the police decided to do all in
their power for the injured miner and
also to protect his little friend until
the old man recovers strength sufficient
to get along. Arrangements were made
with the management of the county
hospital and private room will be
given the old man there, while the boy
will be allowed to visit him each day.
In the meantime word will be sent to
the boys mother in Colorado, and if she
desires that the lad be sent home a
ticket will be procured for him and he
will be placed aboard train and sent
to her.

RUSS0.JAPANESE ALLIANCE.

Although a great many people think
pen, it sometimes comes to pass that
the likely does happen, and that's just
what has happened between Russia
and Japan.
Thes two powers have entered INTO
an alliance to protect China, which
means that they will divide the Chi
nese market between them and leave
the other nations of the world to pick
up such crumbs as may be permitted
to come their way. This alliance is the
natural and logical outcome OF the
Russo-Japanese war.
Men fall out, fight and are foes ever
after; nations fall out, fight and be-
come friends. It was stated OF good
authority that at time there were
negotiations being carried OF between
France and Germany whereby these
two powers would join and conquer
| Europe. What but the fears Of such
an alliance makes England always
keep her navy equal to three European
powers?
Russia has been kept penned up il
ice-bound ports for almost six months
every year and this mainly by Eng.
land. She built o railroad across ST
IBERIA and was confronted by Japan

naval purposes, but for commerce. TIL,
loss of the navy to Russia was a bless
ing in disguise. She will now concen
trate her attention on her vast army
leaving the naval end OF the pro
gram to Japan.
Japan by herself could not hold tn
Pacific against Germany and tn
United States, and she cannot hop
for much. if any, assistance from Eng
land, whose hands are now full tryin
to check the spirit of rebellion anon
her Indian subjects, therefore sh
seeks the alliance of the only powe
whose interest, like her own, lies j
the future of China.

Be UnWise for Republi-

Columbus, o., Aug, 20.-William III.

the auspices of the Buckeye Republican

the fact that it is regarded as the plat
form upon which he will make his
campaign for the Republican nomina-

Mr.. Taft made no formal announce

troduced by Gov. Harris as the next
President of the United States, (which
WAS the signal for a prolonged out
burst of applause.
Special interest was manifested in
Secretary Taft's u~tterances on the

clared that it would be both unwise
and unsafe for the Republican party to
fail to pledge itself to revise the Ding

dental election as possible. His de-

evoked enthusiastic applause.
Secretary Taft will resign the cabi-
net some time in October. His resig-

In his speech here he replied vigor-

Senator Foraker, and manifested a
bellicose attitude towards Foraker, that
would indicate that there is little hope
for peace between them ever in the
future.
