FIND BAKE SHOP
CONDITIONS BAD
HEALTH CRUSADERS BRING TO
LIGHT FILTH
Want to Create Sentiment Against
Underground Shops for Sanitary
Reasons-Expect Decision
In Comeback Case

Health officers and others, led by DIR. L.
M. Powers, visited various restaurants
and bake shops yesterday to learn condi-
tions as they exist.
The health department is anxious to dc
away with basement bake shops for san
itary reasons, and Yesterdays trip helped
to create sentiment against the under
ground bakeries.
A general cleanup in restaurants an6
bakeries has been ordered, and the trir
was merely an incident in this crusade.
The department has been worried by the
fact that no decision has yet been made
In the Russell test case on the comeback
proposition. Russell runs a restaurant
near the city hall and has defied the de-
partment backed by certain other res
taurateurs. A decision may be had this
week. however.
I'VE are particularly after two evils
terday. I'VE want all restaurant toilets
range, ice box or storage place for food.
The law specifies this.
I'VE also want all restaurants screened.
"Flies, the greatest carriers of germs,
now infest many restaurants, especially
around sugar bowls, bread plates and pies
and cakes, which are invariably exposed
Fly paper is filthy and not an appe-
tizer, and as soon as a place Is cleared of
flies by screens this gum paper should
also be thrown out.
I'VE want to make our work educa-
tional rather than prosecute offenders,
and are glad to say the best restaurants
are in sympathy with u.s."

PEACE PREVAILS
IN DEPARTMENTS
CIVIL SERVICE SITUATION is
CLEARED UP
Aqueduct Engineers Have Heart-to.
Heart Talk with Commissioners
over Hiring of Men on Big
improvement

Chief Engineer William Mulholland,
Assistant Engineer ]. B. Lippincott and
Attorney w. B. Mathews of the Los
Angeles aqueduct were before the
civil service commission yesterday to
discuss exemptions and practices gov
erning the hiring of men on the aque-
duct work.
Because of the distances of camps
and cities on the route from lines of
travel much embarrassment has result
ed through civil service rules.
These features nave been made more
complicated by the strict rulings of
City Auditor w. C. Mushet in requir-
ing acquisitions on all supplies and
$500.
AS 1t takes several days of travelling
from the end of the railroad at Mojave
or at Keeler to reach some of the
points and a week or two to reach
others, red tape works a hardship In
many ways.
Complaint has been made in some
quarters that the credit of the city
of Los Angeles with merchants on the
routes has been impaired by the dila-
tory and circuitous manner of order
ing, buying and paying for supplies
and goods for city employees and city
| work
clear to the commission by the en-
gineers and an understanding was
reached yesterday.
Every effort will be made to keep
the eligible list full in all departments
so that there need be no gaps when
men are wanted.
Under the aqueduct board system
of sending private copies of specifica-
tions to dealers and merchants as well
as advertising for bids, 1t has been
found that much lower bids are OBJ
tanned. AS competitive bids are made
public invariably after advertising the
bidders are governed by their printed
price lists, which go to the trade,
whereas in private solicitation the
board has been able to buy at much
lower figures.
If the city could take advantage of
the cash payment system as business
houses do it would save an additional
2 per cent.

Society,"

TN France it is considered positively
heartrending for a woman to be fat,
Il even though obesity is very much in
evidence in that country. But the
French dressers have an abhorrence of
too much avoirdoupois, though they all
are clever in dupL.,ty when dress is con-
cerned and they have many little Sc
crets which are advantageous at all times.
The French woman shuns horizontal
lines at the waist and she shuns hori-
zontal lines as she would avoid the
plague, for we'll she knows the tiniest line
at the waist is sufficient to make her look
short and fat. This does not mean that
the French woman has her dresses made
all in one piece, though that is a favor
lite mode for her very best garments,
but the separate waits and skirts are
made with points reaching far below the
waist line and long lace jabots, while the
waist always overlaps the skirt, making
the waist really much longer in appear
ance than it would be If belt or girdle
were used
For fine toilettes the careful dresser
knows the beauty of panel effects. the full
length panel in the front or back, or
both. with long tapering lines and other
panels of graduated size around the skirt
These panels are usually of fine lace
silk, sometimes velvet, yet dainty in out
line and edged with the narrowest of fine
trimmings.
House gowns are made in one-piece ef-
feet, sometimes with decolete effect at
the throat outlined with a lace collar,
frequently large one. The French have
ever favored lace as a decoration and 1t
plays prominent part In the workman
ship of many exquisite gowns.
The French women are not the tallest
women in the world, many being quite
diminutive in size, so they learn the art
of adding height to small statures. The
| high-heeled shoes and high headdress are
| among some of their ideas to deceive ma
ture of what she apparently robbed them.
The large woman may wear many col
ors, though she must ever steer clear of
the brighter shades, for they certainly
add bulk to ones appearance. Striped
laces are very becoming to a. large
woman and all know the advantages of
shot silk. This particular silk is a run
ming mate to striped effects only the lines
are broken and more easily constructed
than severe striped effects.

New Bill at People's

The new bill that opened at the Peo-
pies yesterday is one of the best that
Manager Flournoy has offered this sea-
son. The acrobatic sketch team. Schrode
and Mulvey, score one of the biggest
hits ever made in this house. Their
acrobatic dancing and pantomime work
is first class and they easily top the
good bill at this popular Main street
play house. the four Masons in their
act: 1.-The Country School" are funny
and introduce several excellent special
ties. The act runs over twenty minutes
and never drags for a single moment.
Homer Long renders two new illustrated
songs and the Peoples comedy company
in James P. Lees laughable one-act
comedy, Toms Troubles at Long
Beach," keeps the audience in excellent
humor. New and down-to-date moving
pictures close one of the best bills Of
the summer season.

LEADING MAN TO WE'D
THE LEADING WOMAN

Fischer's theater is to have a new
leading man. The engagement of Rich
ard Burton ends Saturday night and his
place will be taken by Tracy McDermott,
formerly member of Herr Fischer's
forces, but who left him some time ago
and who recently has been playing at

A week later Mr.. McDermott will in
troduce his bride at the First street bur-
lesque house as its leading woman. The
young woman is Dot Raymond, prime
favorite with Los Angeles audiences and
also a member of the Unique stock COM
pany
Miss Raymond is not yet Mrs. McDer-
mott, but she will be within very few
days if she keeps her promise, and she
says she intends to keep it.

With the host and hostess, Mr.. and Mrs.
Justin Cadwallader of 533 Dearborn street,
setting the fashion with their quaint
Dutch costumes, the guests followed suit
and appeared in all sorts of children's 8
clothes at the informal porch party given
last evening by Mr.. and Mrs. Cadwalla-
der. The yard and porch were lighted
with strings of Japanese lanterns and the
house was decorated with red gera-
NUNS and ferns.
A Dutch supper was served and many
amusing games were played. Mrs. Lewis

selections. Among the guests were Mr..

THINK WOMAN
IMPLICATED
SERVANT MAY BE AccoMPLlcE
OF RoBRER BAND
OBEAR BURGLARY EXPLAINED
ON THIS THEORY
Police Believe They Detect Female
Hand in Lootlng the Home of
Judge 3. N. Smith and
Other Robberies

The police believe that in the person
Of a servant girl employed at the Obear
home, 2105 West Adams street, they have
discovered an accomplice in the recent
robbery of the Obear home, and also
the woman suspected of taking part in
several daring burglaries during the last
two months.
The woman, whose name has not been
given out by the detectives, disappeared
from the Obear home, where she was
employed short time before the bur
glary occurred.
A full description was given to the
police, who Immediately connected her
with the woman suspected of taking part
in the burglary of Judge B. N. Smiths 8
residence at 40S East Twelfth street on
July 2. and who was seen with two men
to enter homes on El Molino and Pico
streets about July %.
For some time it has been the opinion
of the police that an organized band of
crooks has been operating in this city,
and it is thought that the Obear servant
is member of the gang and employed
by 1t to enter the service of we'll
to-do private families in order to learn
the hiding place of their valuables.
Besides the robbery of the Obear and
the Smith homes 1t may be that this
same gang of thieves is responsible for
the robbery on July II of the home of
w. P. OMara, 1910 South Beacon street.
of F. w. Stoll at 2S10 Glendale street
and of Mrs. ]. Chandler, 1874 st. An
drews place.
If the police are successful in locating
this clever transient domestic it may
be the means of breaking up one of the
most systematic bands of looters that
has ever operated In Los Angeles.

NEW LEADING WOMAN
ON WAY FROM EAST
MISS BLANCHE STODDARD TO
COME HERE
Will Succeed Miss Albertson in the
BeIasco company-Lewis Stone
Returns from His Noun
tain Trip

Miss Blanche Stoddard, who is to sue
ceed Lillian Albertson as leading woman
at the Belasco boarded a train in New
York last night for Los Angeles and is
now on her way to the coast. She will
reach here, barring accidents, early next
week, and Is expected to open the week
following in Maxine Elliotts play, Her
Own Way" This will be followed by
'The Admirable Crichton," in which
Lewis Stone will return to the cast. "The
Little Gray Lady" announced for week
after next, will be postponed.
Miss Stoddard was last in Los Angeles
two years ago, when she appeared in sup
port of Miss Margaret Anglin in "zra.'
Since then she has been leading woman
with the William Morris stock company
In Lincoln Square theater, New York city.
She is a considerably bigger woman
physically than Miss Albertson and is a
pronounced blonde. Originally Miss Stod-
dard was engaged for the AlcaZar thea
ter, San Francisco, the switch being made
only because the Belasco here needed
leading woman Immediately. while in San
Francisco the need is not so immediate.
Herbert Kelcey and Effie Shannon are
now playing with the Alcazar company,
and when their engagement closes Dennis
O'Sullivan will go in for a season of five
or six weeks and will take his leading
woman with him. Meantime Frederick

| filled.
Lewis Stone Is in Town
Lewis Stone, the Belasco's leading man,
who is on a vacation, returned to Los An
geles last night from his mountain trip,
bringing his wife, Margaret Langham,
with him. They expect to go to Catalina
either today or tomorrow for a stay.
Stone says of a week, though Manager
Blackwood offers to bet they will be back
in town again before Sunday.
Richard Vivian, also on vacation leave,
is expected back in Los Angeles within a
day or two. He is to be in the cast of
1.-The Charity BALI next week.
Despite rumors to the contrary, Mrs.
Stone will not return to the stage. even
temporarily. 1t was said around the
theater that she might step into Miss
Bergs roles when that clever actress
leaves for the east, but she herself denied
the report yesterday and said she had no
desire to appear again before the foot
lights. Meantime the wires between Los
Angeles and New York are being kept
hot in pursuit of a successor for Miss
Berg. Three women are under considera..
ton. Which one will be secured is not
yet known.

JUSTICE PIERCE SUES
COUNTY FOR $3.50 RENT
Declares Amount Is FaIr--Supervisor
Rejected Claim-Case Result of
New Law Abolishing
Fees

Another phase of the fight against the
law enacted by the last legislature, put
ting township justices on salary, and
doing away with the former fee system,
was revealed yesterday, when Justice H..
A. Pierce filed a suit against the county
in Justice Stephens court, asking $26O.5O
for the rent of his court room.
In the complaint it is alleged that the
bill was presented to the supervisors
and rejected on the ground that it was
exorbtant. The plaintiff states that the
bill Is for three and half months, and
that the rent, SIS month, is a reason
able amount for the premises at 232 New
High street
In a suit now pending in the supreme
court the salary law is attacked by
Justice Pierce, who wishes to retain the
fee system. At present the fees are
deposited with the county treasurer in
escrow until a decision is rendered.
