OPERATORS WILL
RECEIVE INCREASE
After March 1 TeIegraphers Employed
by Western Union Will Be
Given 10 Per Cent
Raise

There wasn't a sad face in all the
throng when the Western Union teleg-
raphers of the day shift came out of
the main office in the Wilson block at
First and Spring last night
Night men who entered the big
operating room on the top floor pre-
pared to relieve the day force were
surprised at the beaming faces of their
fellow workers. The attention of the
owl gang was turned toward the bull
letin board, where they read the fol-
lowing telegram from New York:
IF. NJ. Lamb, superintendent, Los
Angeles.
This company has received petitions
within the last sixty days from six
teen offices in the west and southwest
asking for an increase of 10 per cent
in the salaries Of employees. These pc
titions have been given careful con-
sideration bearing in mind that the
company could not discriminate in
favor of a few offices. but that any
action taken should be general. In
this connection it has been necessary
to consider enormously increased cost
of all kinds of telegraph material,
which in many cases has been from
80 to 100 per cent, while the tariff rates
on messages and other traffic are very
low in view of the demands of the
public for ever increasing facilities
and more rapid service. In fact many
Of these rates are relics Of former
ruinous competition and are unproft-
able Notwithstanding these facts the
company has decided to increase the
salaries of operators at it's principal
Offices throughout the country 10 per
cent from March /, 1907.

B0STONIANS AID IN
SUMMER OPERA PLANS

Sparks Berry manager of the Audi
torium, has made public some of his
plans for his summer opera company,
which will open in that theater the
latter part of April.
II want it understood" said he last
night, "that this is not to be a revival
of the old Bostonians, or anything like
that. Tom Karl, one of the props of
that company and it's leading tenor,
will be with us, but in the capacity of
stage director. He now and then may
take a role. but this will be excep-
tional.
1.-TWO more of the younger set in the
Bostonians will sing with us, but no
more. The report originated because l
have in mind the formation of a com
pany along the lines of the former Bos-
tonians, which viii sing some Of their
great successes, but that is all. The
principals of the company have been
engaged in New York. and part of
the chorus of forty will be brought
from there; the rest will come from
San Francisco.
ut is our plan to run the company
two months; then the house viii be
closed for a general renovation and
reopen in the fall.

Question of Publishing Monthly Maga-
zine at Los Angeles High School
Agitates PupIs-Notes
of Interest

Pupils at the Los Angeles high
school are stirred up over the question
of whether the school shall publish a
monthly high school paper. The high
feeling for and against the scheme,
which is to be decided by popular vote
this morning, induced Principal Housh
to muster the school out in front of
the building yesterday afternoon to
give some of the interested parties an
opportunity to argue the case pro and
con.
The high school pupils published a
paper ten years ago, but the finances
of the concern became in such strait
ened conditions that the faculty of the
high school had to pay the youngsters
debts.
Since then many requests have come
from the pupils to be permitted to
publish a paper but mindful of it's
past experiences, the faculty has de-
MED them every time. Permission will
be given the pupils to publish a month
ly now, provided sufficient financial
support is guaranteed.
At present the senior A class of the
high school issues a class publication,

for Sunday, at which time they in

their companions or order, a general

road telegraph service, the dispatching
of the trains and even the handling of
mail. The order of increase, while it
Will not cause them to Withdraw their
call for the meeting, will materially
curb the more wildly inclined spirits
who may desire radical measures.
The increase of 10 per cent, as much
as the men asked for in their petit
tion was gratifying to the telegraph
ers' many of whom did not expect the
company to accede to their demands
in full Although the Los Angeles en-
ployes of the company did not send
in petition, the eastern men having
done all the work, they will profit by
the order the same as the telegraphers
in all the other large cities of the
country.

BARNUM QUITS
STAGE DIRECTION
Distinguished Actor Will Take Rest
on Physicians Order and Re.
sumo His Triumphs as
Player Later

George w. Barnum has resigned as
stage director of the Belasco theater,
and his resignation has ben accepted
to take effect at the end of next week.
His successor has been selected, but
the name is not made public yet.
Nervous strain and symptoms of i'll
health are Mr.. Barnum's reasons, as
given to Manager Blackwood.
1t is thought that he will continue as
member of the playing company, as
both management and patrons espeei-
ally like him in this capacity, but even
this is not decided. 1t is reported that
he may take a vacation of a month
and then possibly return in the capacity
of artist, but Mr.. Parnum Is not ready
to state this positively. The only GER
tainty is that as stage director his
regime closes after next week.
George Barnum is one of the best
actors In stock in Los Angeles today.
and as stage director few equal him.
Notable PRODUCTIONS have been the in
variable rule at the Belasco during his
reign, and 4his own every appearances
as an actor has been a separate stage
triumph. Los Angeles would. be sorry
indeed to lose him in either capacity,
but especially as an actor, in which he
appeals most strongly to Belasco audi
ences
Another change in the Belasco roster
is the addition to 1t OF Miss Florence
Smythe, very capable young woman.
last seen here as the milliner when
Theo. Roberts was here with THE
County Chairman" Miss Smythe will
play second ingenue roles, and is now on
her way here, due to arrive Sunday.
She should be distinct addition to
the company.
Manager Blackwood said yesterday
that Howard Scott's detection from
the company was by no means assured,
IN fact, he said that he expected Mr..
Scott to remain. 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. Scott recently announced that
he would join Dick Ferris company at
the Auditorium. His wishes, II is
stated, are to remain with the Belasco
company, If his arrangements can be
cancelled.
Cancelled.
OF late and he has oeen under a great
nervous strain. His hysician has
urged him to take & good rest, and the
management was united in this re-
quest, But Mr.. Barnum has felt that
his work demanded his continuance in
his dual capacity and has stuck It out.
Now that 1t is possible for him TO
leave the stage to someone else and
devote himself entirely to his art. II
Is quite probable that he will rest a
while and then resume his work in
acting parts only.
