ELECTRIC DISPLAY =
TO Be GORGEOUS
THOUSANDS OF LIGHTS WILL
BE USED
Main, Spring, Broadway and Hill to Be
Illuminated for Fiesta Week as
Never Before in the
City's History

Elaborate plans are being made for
the street decorations during the
Fiesta, and the electrical display along
Main, Spring, Broadway and Hill will
probably be ahead of anything ever be-
fore attempted in Los Angeles.
Five thousand incandescent lights
will be festooned along Main and Spring
streets from Temple to Ninth street.
on Broadway from Second to Ninth
and on Hill from Third to Seventh.
On many of the cross wires will be
suspended colored lights. At the corner
of Third and Broadway there will be an
immense American flag, suspended high
above the street and outlined in red,
white and blue lights.
In front of the Alexandria hotel, head
quarters for the Shriners, will be an
Illuminated Shriner emblem, with the
fez in red lights and the sword and
crescent in white and gold.
Appeal to Business Men
A general appeal las been made to
the business men to make novel and
attractive displays in front Of their
stores, and 1t is expected that gener-
Gus rivalry will result in many striking
displays Bunting is said to be out OF
date, and but little will be used for
decorative purposes.
For the flower parade the general
decorative scheme will be floral in char
acter. AT night there will be room for
magnificent effects by the use OF colored
lights.
The Fiesta committee has announced
that the electrical parade will include
sixteen floats, emblamatic of precious
stones.
The boys and girls of the Polytechnic
high school have volunteered their SER
vices for the allegorical figures planned
for each display.

Henry Arthnr Lones

regarded as his masterpiece. has in his
own country. but one real rival Arthur
Wing PinerO. The dramatic studies of
both OF these authors are of very high
order, and while Mr.. Pinero may produce
smoother and more epigrammatic dia-
logue, Mr. Jones has apparently a keener
insight into human nature. for the char
acters Of all Of his plays are distinctly
and essentially human.
It was IN 1873 that Henry Arthur ZONES
made his appearance on the dramatic
horizon, and then the effort was a one
act play called only Round the Corner"
which was produced at the Exeter Thea
ter, London. and which later. under the
title of The Organist." was successfully
presented al the old Lyceum Theater.
New York His literary Wo-k began By
the writing of stories, most of which.
sad 20 relate, failed to find a publisher.
In the summer of 1879. Wilson Barrett
accepted "A Clerical Error" which he
so successfully produced that Jones was
able 10 devote his entire time to play
writing. Then came play entitled His
Wife" Ii was melOdrama which now
appealed to the young author. and in
1882 his famous The Silver King was
produced by Mr. Wilson Barrett, and
even to this day this remarkable play IS
still being used. either in authorized or
unauthorized versions. Two years later.

1889. in the summer of that year. Mr.
Willard produced THE Middleman" ana
the following May. Judah" was put on
In January Of the next year. The Dane
ing Girl began an engagement. which
lasted nearly year, and then came "The
Crusaders. OtheT plays which this au-

The Noble FagabOnd" The Lord Har-
~, Hearts OF Hearts. and Hard Hit,
among the melodramas; and besides those
already mentioned there is 'The Case Of
Rebellious Susan" 'The Maneuvers of
Jane. Michael and His Lost Angel,
THE Bauble Shop. THE Lars THE
Masqueraders," Wealth. THE Rogues'
Comedy" and Mrs Danes Defense.
THE Middleman," Wealth" and "Ju-

land America, and Australia, but all
over Germany, In Austria, Holland Bel
GUM, and Denmark.
Whatever else Henry Arthur Jones may
be. he is a dramatist who commands the
most earnest attention, and any new play
he may have produced is received with
great deal Of interest. The English home

North Gate Of Regents Park. which was
formerly occupied by the celebrated ar

The wise course is 10 shake of the
weakness by plenty OF outdoor life at the
season when nature is particularly allur-
ing. If "A small garden is possible, the

GHOST WAS SWARM OF BEES.
Mystery of Haunted Chamber in DR..
FeIl's House Solved

ANNAPOLIS, Md, September 24-The
mystery surrounding the alleged haunted
chamber or spare room, In the residence
of DR.. Thomas Fell, president of St. John s
College has been cleared up by the discov-
cry of an immense hive of bees under the
flooring.
1t is thought that the thousands of the
busy little workers had been making their
abode there for some SIX eight years.
After the bees had been either exterminated
or driven out a hive of honey eight feet
long and sixteen inches deep was found. 1t
is estimated that there were 300 pounds of
it, and the family of DR.. Fell has honey
enough for its buckwheat cakes for some
time to come.
The bees and their hive were discovered
by the honey which began to leak through
the ceiling and dropped on the dining room
table which was directly below. Kerosene
and sulphur candles We're used to either
drive the bees out or kill them. There were
thousands of them. The floor of the room
was torn up to complete the job. Only one
person was stung-Dr. Felrs steward. The
bees had made their way beneath the floor
ing through a small crack under a window
sill, and ii is remarkable that their pres
ence had not become known long before
this. The spare room has generally been
used by DR.. Fell's guests, many, of whom
have complained of hearing strange noises
at night. but members Of the family laugh
ed the matter into ridicule.
