Lawyer Arley B Magee, Dover, Del,
painted his house four years ago with
paste paint at cost of $44 for paint
and $6l for labor; total S105. The

he painted Devoe & Reynolds at very
different cost: Sl8 for paint and $50

DRUNKEN MAN TRIES TO
SHOOT UP LONG BEACH

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, May 2S.-While under
the influence of liquor an unidentified
man terrorized a considerable portion OF
the town at a late hour last night, de-
stroying property and coming very near
seriously injuring Mr.. and Mrs. w. H.
Loomis, 535 East Second street, when
he shot from his revolver at a light
which was burning in their home.
The bullet crashed through window
close by which the Loomises were Sit
ting and buried itself in an opposite
wall. Mrs. Loomis was nearly pros
trated by the shock. Before her hus-
band could reach the front door the
marauder had disappeared. On Olive
avenue the wild-eyed individual fired
several shots while in the vicinity of
the Long Beach Gas company's plant.
On Appleton street a little later he
stopped a boy, Carl Belts, who was
riding along on his bicycle, caught the
lamp from the wheel and smashed it on
the ground.
The boy met officers McMillin and
McCord few moments later and the
three continued the search for the reclI-
less stranger which the policemen had
already instituted.
He was not found by the police, how
ever, and no arrests had been made up
to midnight.

SUE IS HAPPILY
DONE AT DELASCO
BRET HARTE PLAY A DELIGHT
Full ATTRACTION
Parts Are cleverly Taken and Ensem-
BILE Is Good-Miss AIbertson VIM
ming in the Title RoIe-Return
of Howard Scott

''Sue." a dramatization of Bret
Harte's familiar story, THE Judgment
OF Bolinas Plain" which went on at
the Belasco Monday night, easily viii
prove another winner for that excellent
organization. Both play and players
form delightful combination, and the
result is an evenings amusement sell
dom bettered.
OF course, like most of Bret Hartes
stories "Sue" deals with the western
life of some time back--the life OF the
mining camp, before such places be-
came the effete communities Nevada
is now so proud to claim. Then justice
was largely an affair of man to man,
and the might of the mass made rlght
to the individual. Such times bred
strong men and women and they lived
and moved in a primitive yet free at
mosphere which may seem strange 10
us of today, but in many ways mad It's
advantage Criminals then did not en-
gage high priced lawyers and cheat
Justice by the aid of cash.
Sue herself, as the story relates, Is
a young girl of much freedom, inno-
cent and loving, almost childlike, till
she is rudely awakened, but she is ever
a likable character, and in MISS Al
bertson's hands her worth is we'll de-
yeloped. Possibly Miss Albertson is not
wholly convincing in the later passages,
but that is matter VI opilAlOh' tiS
writer finds her characterization one OF
the pest she has done here. In the
scene with Jim Wynd she is at her
finest.
Lewis Stone is excellent as Ira Beas-
ley. the lonely rancher, and his inabil-
ity to realize the beauty and value of
the trust placed in him by Sue is we'll
brought out. Howard Scott, back home
and strongly greeted, is very happy as
Parson Davies; Hobart Bosworth is
perfect as the sheriff, and gives a high
class study of that character; Harry
Earl is all that could be asked as Jeff
Brag, the constable, and the rest of the
cast has been placed to great advan-
tage. There is every indication that
the play will prove one of the longest
remembered of the Belasco season.

LIE. Rehxmer Has Moved

L. E. Behymer, who for four years
enjoyed the comforts of an office in
the Mason opera house building, from
which he managed the leading mu-
steal events that came to Los Angeles
and Southern California, has at last
fallen q victim to the call of the
''Music Wild" and has taken two
sumptuous offices on the third floor of
the Blanchard building.
These offices will give Mr.. Behymer
and the Great Western Lyceum and
Musical bureau OF which he is the
president and acting manager addi-
tional room to carry on the various
enterprises in which they are inter
ested. The handling of the western
tour Of Paderewski from the Missouri
river to the Pacific coast is no small
feat in itself, but when is added the
tour of Jan Kubelik over the same
territory and one for Louise Homer,
another for Maud Powell and eight
weeks business for the Chicago Sym
phony orchestra, one commences to
realize what a Los Angeles firm is do
ing for the furtherance of good mu-
sic in the west.
Besides these tours there is the Pa
cific coast arrangement for Gadski and
her company, Nine. Calve, Harold
Bauer, Fritz Kreisler, the violinist,
Josef Hofnann, the pianist, Nine Car
reno, the Damrosch orchestra next May
and dozen other attractions equally
as strong.

BRIEF BITS OF NEWS
AT THE VALLEY CROWN

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, May 2S.-About half a
hundred members of the Twilight club
enjoyed the eighth monthly dinner of the
organization at the Hotel Maryland this
evening and also an excellent talk on
Mining as a Business" by Courtney
DeKalb. DR.. j. II. Mcbride presided at
the meeting and the affair was very
considerable success.
Lester H. Gibson was named assistant
city engineer by Mayor Farley at to-
days meeting of the city council, ana
his nomination was promptly confirmed.
Gibson has been connected with the Of
fetal force of the engineers department
for some time. The council also decided
to resurface West Colorado street with
asphalt. This section of the street has
fallen into most disgraceful condition
Memorial day will be widely observed
in Pasadena and this year a concerted
effort will be made to have the store
fronts of the city suitably decorated.
There will be a parade in the morning
in which the school children of the city
as we'll as the members of the G. A. r.,
w. r. C. and Sons of Veterans will also
take part. There will be special patri-
otic exercises in the public schools Oh
Pasadena in honor of the old soldiers.
The junior class of the high school has
issued invitations for it's big reception
to the seniors for the evening of June Z.
The happy event will be held at the
Shakespeare club house.
One of the social novelties of the sea-
son was an Arroyo tea" given this aft

slipped tea and enjoyed outdoor games

EDUCATION BOARD FIGHT
PROMISES TO BE LIVELY
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
PASADENA, May 2S.-What promises
to be a lively contest for Office was
formally launched today when j. B.
Beardsley announced himself as a can
didate for the board of education.
Beardsley is the first man IN the field,
but almost coincident with his an
nouncement comes a meeting of a
large number of prominent citizens at
the board of trade rooms tomorrow
wednesday, afternoon at 4 o'clock to
prepare a list of nominations.
Among others talked of are Mrs. Mary
M. Conan, president of the Shakespeare
club and Mrs. Elizabeth Fordyce Grin
nell, as we'll as DR.. c. J. Tracy. There
is strong sentiment that when women
were eliminated from the board some-
thing of a mistake was made. For this
reason these two prominent women
stand a very fair chance of making the
board should they consent to run.
Just who will be in the running at
the board of trade meeting it is impos-
sible to say. A special committee has
been named to report at the meeting
tomorrow afternoon and some inkling of
this report will probably be known after
the committee meets tomorrow morning.

THREE AUTOMOBILES CLIMB
TO MT. WILSON'S PEAK
snecial to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, May 2S.-For the first
time in history an automobile has
reached Wilson's peak. Not only did
one machine make the climb which has
never heretofore been made by an auto
mobile, but today three did the stunt,
the last reaching the top this evening.
The first machine to reach the sum
NIT was a Franklin, in which were S.
s. Whitman and R. c. Hamlin. This
car started at 6 o'clock this morning
and made the climb in two hours and
forty minutes
Directly on it's heels came Cadillac,
run by Councilman Ed R. Braley, with
King Stevens, Harold Parker and Ed
ward Dobshutz as occupants. This car
cut the record to two hours and ten
minutes.
Late this afternoon a third onslaught
was made by car in charge of j..
Elliott Jennings, Dunstan Collins and
John Daggett. This car made the
climb to the summit in one hour and
fifty minutes, a record it will be hard
to excel. The return trip was made
after dark and was one of the most
thrilling and exciting episodes of noun
tain travel ever recorded in this Sec
ton.
Good music always at Coronado.

quiet. The stiffness was OF that orliH-
Gus kind that one feels heavy and OPP
pressive. 1t was a silence of blue lights
and slow music. I knew something
uncanny was happening, but though l
tried to see over my shoulder l could
not get a hint of the cause.
Then up in the gallery boy snick-
cred. The balcony took UP the laugh,
and then the whole house burst into a
roar of merriment. My first thought,
like any actress, was of my costume
was 1 coming to pieces? 1 glanced to
the stage manager for signal to solve
the mystery. He nodded toward a sofa
behind me, and turning what should 1
see but big gray cat calmly washing
his face.
mo wonder the house laughed. 1t
was the theater cat which, finding the
stage unusually still, had wandered
about as I read and then sat calmly
down to make his toilet. His appear
ance had broken the nervous tension of
the audience, and it laughed helplessly.
'I burst into tears and rushed off the
stage. Mr.. Frankenstein leaned over
the orchestra pit and tried to catch the
animal. Two stage hands entered and
gave chase, then the curtain was rung
down.
II pleaded and almost fought against
finishing the act, but the manager in
sisted and in nervous dread 1 stood
with the fatal letter in my hand as the
curtain rose. But the audience was
most kind. 1t gave me rousing recep-
ton, and the act was completed without
further interruption.
After all, my debut at the Orpheum
here was a success. 1 have often Won
dered what the stage hands did with
that cat when they caught it. But I
never had the courage to ask"
Los Angeles herald., 1907-05-29

TIME many admirers of the talented
Lillian Burkhart (Mrs. George
Goldsmith will learn with pleasure
that she has been induced to come forth
from her retirement and will appear
next week at the Orpheum. The society
circles in which Mrs. Goldsmith moves
will be equally pleased to greet her
again under her professional name.
Mrs Goldsmith says that her appear
ance at the Orpheum next week does
not mean that she thinks of returning
to the stage Since her retirement she
has never seriously considered the offers
with which she has been deluged by
vaudeville and legitimate managers
The weeks engagement at the Orpheum
is her response to the insistent demands
of her friends.
'It is hard to refuse such flattering
requests" says the actress. Some time
ago the Orpheum management secured
a conditional promise from me, and
when it was renewed a few weeks ago
and seconded by all my friends 1 gave
in and will play again, but for one week
only.
II will give "A Passing Fancy my
favorite. 1t was in this that made my
first vaudeville appearance in Los An

"A very odd occurrence marked the
occasion, and l am often reminded of it
by persons who were present.
| During my act 1 read letter which
explains the action of the piece. The
scene is very quiet but very emotional,
and for that reason hard to present in
a vaudeville theater, where they de-
mand constant movement and action.

MRS. FISkE SALE OPENS
TODAY; WILL GIVE A
TRIPLE BILL SATURDAY

For Saturday night, June s, the final
performance of their engagement at the
Burbank, beginning next Monday, MIS-,
Fiske and the Manhattan company Will
offer instead of 1.-THE New York Idea,
which will be the bill at the other per-
formances, triple bill of exceptional
interest that will show Mrs. Fiske IN
three of her most famous roles, In none
of which has she been seen in Los
Angeles. The bill will consist of the
fourth act of "Tess of the D'Urber-
villes," the act containing the murder
scene; the fifth, and most delightful
act Of Becky Sharp" and one-ac'
play entitled "Dolce," by John Luthel
Long, which gives Mrs. Fiske the rol'
of a young Italian countess.
Upon each occasion that Mrs. F1skt
has visited Los Angeles there nave
been many requests that she ac'
Tess and Becky, and while the scenic
equipment necessary to a complete per-
( formance of each play is not available,
Mrs. Fiske has arranged to give the
most important act of the two plays in
response to these requests. Each OF
the acts to be given is in a way play
in itself and can be understood clearly
without reference to the other acts.
The Becky Sharp act pictures Thack-
eray's famous heroine in her lodgings
at Pumpernickel and shows the most
charming side of her character. 1t Is
in this act that her cheerfulness under
reverses, her wit, humor and courage,
her bohemianism, and the other at
tributes that are most associated Win
Becky, are brought out.
Another phase of Mrs Fiske's art is
shown in the Tess murder scene, which
has no equal for intense, dramatic
power. This is the act in which Angel
Clare, her husband, returns after Tess
has been deceived into believing him
dead and has sacrificed herself to Alec
D'Urberville. Alec jeers and taunts the
maddened woman, who, beside herselt
with suffering, kills him.
The one-act play, Dolce" is de-
lightful bit of artist life, with comedy
and pathos deftly blended. Mrs.
Fiske's own personality is completely
hidden in her guise of the young
Italian, and even in makeup her ap-
pearance is so transformed that she
has sometimes not been recognized upon
her entrance.
The triple bill is being prepared by
Mrs. Fiske especially for Los Angeles,
as she has not acted it anywhere else.
With these and her charming Cynthia
Karslake in THE New York Idea," Mrs.
Fiske will thus be seen in four widely
different roles during the engagement.
The sale of seats for the entire week
opens this morning, with prospects of a
very large demand.

CHAUFFEUR WOHL
IS UNDER ARREST
Coroner Lanterman Directs Constable
Newell to Bring Injured Man
Before Nearest Justice
for Trial
Pasauend Agency,
II North Raymond Avenue,
Phones: Sunset 1907, Home 2124.

PASADENA, May 2S.-Constable
Harley F. Newell has placed under
arrest Chauffeur Carl Wohl, the man
who was driving the automobile which
collided with the Santa Fe limited last
Saturday evening. In an addenda to
the regular verdict of the coroner S
jury, which was kept private, Wohl
was charged with criminal carelessness
in connection with the affair, and to-
day Coroner Lanterman instructed
Constable Newell to arrest the man,
who is still in the Pasadena hospital.
The command to the constable is not
as yet accompanied by a formal COM
plant, and is in itself most peculiar
document. 1t reads: "At an inquest
held in Pasadena on May 27 the cor
oner's jury, having found that Walter
F. Foster came to his death through
the criminal carelessness of Carl Wonl,
1 hereby instruct you to bring said Carl
Wohl before the nearest and most con-
venient magistrate in Los Angeles
county for comprising the death of
said Walter F. Foster by criminal
means"
The details of WohIs bond have al
ready been arranged and he Will come
before Justice Mcdonald at the earliest
time when he can be taken from the
hospital for such an arraignment. OF
course ne cannot De nelQ without
formal complaint, and such a complaint
would probably have to come through
the district attorneys office. Such a
complaint, Constable Newell says, has
not yet been issued.
At the inquest, as told in The Herald
the witnesses agreed that Wohl had
approached the Lamanda park cross
ing at a rate of about twenty-five miles
an hour. They also agreed that he
did not appear to have been drinking
and that he was so dazed that hC
could hardly tell what had happened
At the Pasadena hospital tonigh
both Miss Hart and Wohl are reported
to be doing nicely and there is a pos
sibility that Wohl may come before
Justice Mcdonald tomorrow or Friday
The unfortunate man knows that h,
is under arrest and is said to havt
taken the matter calmly.

WORKMEN UNEARTH BIG
NEST OF RATTLESNAKES
to The Herald.

LONG BEACH, May 2S.-The sudden
appearance of a number of formidable
looking rattlesnakes came near calling a
halt to the harbor work in progress in
the mouth of the San Gabriel river this
morning.
Six rattlers, each about four feet long,
were unearthed by the men with scrap
ers. The snakes writhed and hissed
wickedly and the men had an exciting
time dispatching the reptiles with
clubs. John F. Craig president of the
Craig Shipbuilding company, killed one
of the snakes. Craig contracted with
the Dock and Terminal company to
clean out the river entrance, and he was
walking near the scrapers which turnel
UP the snakes in the sand this morning.
Six rattlesnake eggs were also found
in a nest not far away.
