GRAND PRESENTS
ANOTHER THRILLER
RED FIRE DRAMA CREATES
ENTHUSIASM
Isn't That Lii Hayward the Mean
Thing, Though, to Pretty Flor.
ence Barker, and She So
Young!

Enthusiastic audiences yesterday aft
ernoon and night greeted the eleventh
offering of the Ulrich stock company at
the Grand opera house. The loyal pat
rons who opened the season with ap-
plause only for the favorites of former
seasons haYe now taken to their hearts
the recruits of 1907, and yesterday 1t
was curtains for ALL The record was
made when the second act closed with
ten recalls for Florence Barker, Lillian
Hayward and Charles Caulkins. Charles
Gum and Frank Frayne got theirs at
the close of the third act, in which they
had to repeat their curtain picture
seven times. How much longer this
might have continued is uncertain, for
the red fire ran out and Director De
Grasse called time.
1t was a rescue scene that aroused this
unusual enthusiasm, and there was real
fire in the attic chamber from which
Tom Elliott and Maxy rescued Anna
Merville and her child. There was flame
at each side of the stage and the fire
gongs were changing most realistically.
And when the wronged girl stands
face to face with the man and the
woman who have wronged her and de-
mands that her innocence be established
and the rights of her child ackuowl-
edged, Indignantly scorning their offer
of money, the house again falls into a
frenzy of applause. Then Florence
Barker is glad she Joined the Ulrich
company. She might be leading woman
in another theater for forty years with
out arousing that much enthusiasm.
Myrtle Selwyn is Annals little sister,
and looks cute and kiddish in pink
gingham apron-oVer some other
Ill okf fr1rs
partner, Frank Frayne, in knickebock-
ers and schoolboy coat, does the boot
black stunt. He does it well enough so
far as action goes, but chews and
jumbles his lines disgracefully. This
habit is likely to spoil his usefulness as
a comedian If not corrected.
Lillian Hayward appears in every
scene, and several times in most Of
them. She is one of the most unquench-
able characters that ever wore a yellow
wig. AS an amateur shoplifter she was
sadly pretty young thing; as an ad-
ventures in the next act she was ap-
propriately bespangled and very world
ly wise. Through three acts she triumph
antly lords 1t over poor little Miss
Barker, but Nemesis overtakes her in
the fourth. Poor Lillian, hers must be
a sad existence with such an added
burden of guilt each seven days.
AS to the men in this play they are
little more than a background for the
women, excepting Frank Frayne and
Arthur Hill and one other whose iden-
tity could not be ascertained from the
program. He plays the role of the
agent for the S. P. G. G. with appro-
pirate comedy effects. Hill is an Irish
landlord whose heart is reached through
his fear of the police.
The play is a success from every
standpoint except that of dramatic art,
and who cares a hang for art as long as
there are laughs and thrills obtain
able?

MONSOON WINS VICTORY
AFTER FACING DEFEAT|
Though Leading Nearly All the Way, Mischief
Loses at Finish -sMinerva Easily
Defeats Arrow
RESULT OF CATALINA ISLAND RACE

nearly straight up, showing that she
had sailed beyond the reach of the
breeze which Monsoon and Minerva
were enjoying. Arrow managed to get
around the point about o'clock, when
the two sloops far to seaward went
about and stood to the shore.
HebeIer Follows Suit
Capt. Hebeler soon followed suit with
Minerva, but Capt. Hay of the Arrow
chose a long tack to the southard, and
when last seen was far out to sea on
the starboard tack.
A lumpy sea kept spilling the wind,
which was fast dropping, and the two
sloops stood in close to the beach in
search Of land breeze. Monsoon had
cut good big slice off Of Mischief's s
lead and when both went about on the
starboard tack, there appeared to be
little more than mile between them.
Short tacks now sufficed, as there
was more wind along the coast, and at
sundown both sloops were beating up
toward Catalina harbor.
Minerva's wind went down with the
sun, and until nearly midnight she
barely made steerage way. The sloops
were more fortunate, particularly Mis-
chief II, which luffed around the west
ern end of the island shortly before 2
O'CLOCK, rOlloWed by monsoon at Z:3U.
Only a light air filled the spinnakers
for the run homeward, and until day
break progress was very slow. Mis-
chief II was sighted from the club
house before o'clock, leading Mon
soon three or four miles, and to the
eager watchers 1t looked like an easy
victory for Folsom.
With the yawls the tickle winds were
not so generous Arrow being becalmed
until daylight but Minerva crept along
with the aid Of light shore breezes, and
at 4:30 rounded the island for the last
leg of the race. Capt. Hay took ad-
vantage of a favoring slant and man
aged to beat al round the isthmus about
10 o'clock, fully a dozen miles astern
of her rival, and as good as out of the
race.
But no victory is achieved until the
finish line is crossed, as Mischief II was
soon to learn, for on the run down
from Point Firmin Monsoon steadily
gained on her. finally getting her wind
and luffing up between the flags just
SO seconds to the good.
Such a finish was never before wit
messed in the history of the South Coast
Yacht club, and perhaps will stand
alone on the log book for many day
to come.
Skipper Folsom sailed a great race,
and lost 1t by a clever maneuver of
Skipper Pugh's when he least ex-
pected to.

FOR SPECIAL ELECTION
Special to The Herald.

OCEAN PARK, June 23.-The most
sanguine expectations of those respon-

of a voting population of approx
mately 1874, the total number of ballots
cast at the last municipal election, 143
voters petitioned the city trustees to
call an election to pass upon the ques-

The petitions will be put in the hands
of the trustees on the following day.
