Los Angeles is fortunate in being
able to hear the greatest musical art
lists that come to America, but the fas-
cination of Los Angeles climate is so
strong that whenever an artist has
been here before, invariably they ar
range to spend considerable time In
this vicinity, and while here become
tourists as well as musicians.
Magnolia drive at Riverside is known
the world over, and the great Palm
avenue at that point is equally cele-
brated. Jan Kubelik and his wife went
into ecstacies of delight at Riverside.
The soul of the artist responds in many
ways to the beauties which surround
Los Angeles, and whether 1t be Kube-
lik, Paderewsk, Schumann-H eink or
Gadski, they go away strong advertis-
ers for Southern California, it's many
points of interest, It's glorious sunshine
and it's sermons In stone."
Mt Lowe and Catalina are equally
famed, and Manager Behymer every
season receives many letters from these
kings and queens of song and instru-
ment asking for their Southern Cali
fornia tour to be so arranged as to
keep them as long as business will per-
NIT in this vicinity, and to arrange
number of open date so that they can
have time to attend to certain social
duties that are always confronting the
artistic entertainer.
This is why Zelio de Lussan re-
quested two weeks at the Orpheum,
and why Hoffman. although playing
but two nights, enjoyed an entire week
in and about Los Angeles. Now Jan
Kubelik, his wife and retinue are put
ting in two weeks in this section of the
country and have requested certain
business men with whom they are
transacting business deals of magni-
tude in this section, to meet them in
Los Angeles for the final consumna-
ton of the deals.
Kubelik has lately become interested
in a large mining venture, which is
turning out much better than he first
anticipated and an office in the Hotel
Alexandria this week has been the CEN
ter Of attraction for several well known
mining men, engineers and supply con-
tractors, who are becoming associated
with the enterprise.
The Kubelik car was attached to the
Owl train last night going to San
Diego, where the viollnist will be heard
in a recital this evening under the
auspices of the Amphion club of that
city.
Mr.. Crosse of the Shore Acres COM
pany, and Jack Dodge of San Diego.
have arranged to give Kubelik ana
his party good time while there IN
the south. They returned on the Owl
after the concert. and Kubelik Will
rest TODAY, preparing for his first con-
cert which is to be given at Simpson
auditorium tomorrow evening.
Wednesday he will tour to santa
Barbara, where he will be heard under
the auspices of the Music Study club
of that city. returning to Los Angeles

nix and Tucson, and thence to FL Paso
