ANNA EVA FAY MYsTIFlEs
AUDIENCE AT THE oRPHEUM

Somewhere, some time, some one was
billed as THE White Mahatma." If 1t
was not Anna Eva Fay 1t might have
been, for the title fits her quite Blavatslsy.
Miss Fay is the central attraction at the
Orpheum this week. where she is doing
all the different kinds of clairvoyance and
spiritualistic stunts that are catalogued
in the price lists of the dealers in stage
magic. This, however. is not quite doing
Justice to the clever little lady. She does
things that no other stage performer gets
away with. How much of her work is
bluff and buncombe none but herself and
her manager can say But part OF 1t is
more than that. It is clever trickery. so
clever that the 1900 people in the Orpheum
last night were completely mystified.
In her first offering she is tied hand and
foot and secured to an upright board In
the middle of the stage in such position
that she cannot raise her knees or use
her hands The usual cabinet is then
placed over her and the fun commences
Tambourines. bells. etc.. are placed on
her knees, and almost before the cabinet
can be closed they are thrown through
the curtain. A guitar placed on her knees

NO LOAFING IN

Distribution System Enlarged to Ac-
conmodate All Who Desire to Con.
tribute Supplies for Charity n
Christmas

1t is no loafing matter around the
Auditorium just now, though there are
plenty of loaves there. 1t Is hustle to
take care of the loaves; they are many.
and all demand particular attention. They
are entries in the Ferris bread baking
contest. and the good housewives who
made them anxiously await the decision
of Jury of bakers as to their quality.
They won't have to wait long; the judges
will act during the performance tonight
and the decisions will be announced from
the stage between the acts
The judges in this case have been kept
secret-for obvious reasons. Passing up
on the merits of a lot of loaves of bread
is about as cheerful as judging bunch
of babies at an infant show. and though
the Jurors will be known tonight, 1t was
considered fairer that no mention of them
be made in advance. For what baker
would not capitulate to the charms of a
fair housewife. and how could he be i'm
partial in such a case?
Therefore, the jury will not report till
tonight and bread will be gladly received
at the Auditorium box office up to cur
tain time tonight
added to the AFFAIR. At the solicitation
of many women who are boarding. but
who wish to participate in this, grand
charity--for all the bread goes TO the
Salvation army and the hospitals-Mr
Ferris and Mr.. Berry have decided to put
their distribution system at the disposal
of all who are charitably inclined, and
who will bring their gifts to the theater.
These are not confined to loaves. either;
anyone who wises may bring anything
eatable-canned goods. potatoes and vege-
tables generally. cake and preserves Any
dainty will be especially welcomed and
the quantity need not be limited at all;
the facilities are ample to care for all
that comes. 1t is felt that this being the
holiday season. all should have plenty to
eat for once in the year, and as condi-
tions have made 1t rather hard for some
this season Mr.. Ferris and Mr.. Berry
wish to do all possible to ameliorate them.
Hence. at the request of number of per-
sons disposed to aid but not having bak-
| ing facilities, they have gladly thrown
open the doors to any and everything
even loaves of bakers bread will be
taken. All that is necessary is to fetch
the offering to the Auditorium box office
today before curtain time tonight and It
will be distributed through the most ap-
proved methods and In a way that will
insure it's reaching the right persons at
| the right time.

able

Mayor A. C. Harper is not in sympathy
with the suggestion that Fiesta be held
next year, timed according to the arrival
of Evans big peace feet.
The mayor instead wants the city as
whole to entertain the men of war and
today will call a meeting of representa-
tive men to set to work planning a gen.
eral demonstration for the fleet and Its
brave crews.
Probably a hundred men will be called
in conference, who in turn will help select
from twenty to thirty others, thus maxi
ing the affair q general one.
1t is believed that with $4,000 to $1,000 for
general expenses a series of entertain
ments can be arranged through cooper
alton which will serve purpose better
than the costly Fiesta with its electric
illuminations.
The feeling is general that the whole
city rather than the merchants alone
must share in the work. The business
men have been called in so often for sim
liar celebrations that spontaneous de-
sire exists now that everybody In Los
Angeles take part In the arrangements.

1t is noteworthy, however, that Miss
