SANTA CLAUS TO
DROP FROM SKY
KNABENSHUE WILL HAVE HIM
AS PASSENGER
Aeronaut Has the Good Saints Sched-
uIe Down Pat and Knows Ex-
actly Where to Inter-
cept Him

Los Angeles will be the first city
whose children can actually say they
have seen a live Santa Claus come
down from the air and distribute pres
ents Christmas day. This will happen
next Friday afternoon, when Roy
Knabenshue will take his airship vi
from Chutes park and bring back
Santa Claus and his pack of toys.
And he will have to give every
child at the park a toy to pay for his
trip on the airship," says Mr.. Knaben-
shue. The aeronaut has secured q
copy of Santa Claus 1908 schedule ano
knows just where to intercept him.
Knabenshue will probably go up OF
the ship alone, so as TO permit Santa
to bring back a goodly load Of toys
but he says there will be no doubt
about bringing the saint back Santa
Claus is said to have used an airshiI
of his own portion of the time this
year. and If he demonstrates that he
is familiar with the Curtiss engine
Knabenshue will let him run the boai
part of the time.
The sight of Santa Clans steering ar
airship is ona the artists have dreamed
of. but il has remained or LIS An
geles to realize it.
The wireless people at Chutes park
have been interested in the plan and
will endeavor to send a message tC
Lehigh of the park management thinks
the mysterious spark which has been
attributed to the Japanese wireless
service is in reality from Kriss
Kringle, who has wanted to signify
his intention of spending Christmas
day in Los Angeles as the most de-
lightful spot on the globe.
So the wireless station is working
today to "call" Santa Claus station
and notify him that Knabenshue will
sail out and "do the honors" for the
city in order that the saint may not
be caught without enough toys to sat
isfy the reception committee that will
greet him at Chutes park when the
airship brings him down to earth.
The Knabenshue airship made an
ascent yesterday afternoon, on which
trials were made at throwing bombs
at fort on the ground. This was not
attempted at a height of more than
500 feet, but demonstrated that a mis-
sile might be placed near enough to a
desired point to cause serious damage
Knabenshue sailed over the fort sew
eral times and twice dropped bombs
within a few feet of it.
Afterward he sailed east over the
Southern Pacific tracks and made a
number of turns and other maneuvers.
The crowd outside the park was I'M

Nine. Schumann-Heink has been
most enthusiastically welcomed in her
native land, according to all reports
received recently. Tuesday evening,

success. The famous contralto is max
ing as great financial success abroad
as she did in this country on her last
two tours. At her opening recital In
Hamburg her gross receipts were over
5000 Marks a sum larger than her
yearly fee when connected with the
opera in that country before coming to
America.
DR.. Richard Strauss honored Nine.
Schumann-Heink with the offer to
create the role of Klytemnestra in his
new opera, "Elektra,'' when it is pro-
duced for the first time in January
next in Dresden, and she will give five
additional performances of it in the
same city and also sing the role in
other parts of Europe.
Nine. Schumann-Heink was the star
at a big charity concert in Berlin,
given under the direct patronage of
the German empress, which was at
tended by the entire royal family.

NORDICA WILL SING
IN CITY OF ANGELS
Great Diva viii Present Pleasing
Program at Simpson Auditorium
Tonight-Twelve Gems to
Be Rendered

All along the coast persons are get
ting the Nordica habit. 1t has been
whispered from city to city and from
club to club that the proper thing is
the Nordica habit, and all who have
heard the great diva say she is singing
more artistically than ever before. Her
coming to Los Angeles tonight to Simp-
son auditorium under the management
of L. e. Behymer, undoubtedly will
bring out a most brilliant audience,
with all the accessories in the matter
of dress and beauty that attend a
musical evening of the highest class,
for Nordica is always a faVortte in Los
Angeles, not only because she is with
out a superior in her field of art, but
because she is a brilliant, sensible,
amiable American woman who has
sung her way into the hearts of her
countrymen. She not only delights the
ear but pleases the eye as well, and
her gowns have become a criterion for
the modistes of this country.
There is no singer who holds warm
err spot in the hearts of music lovers
of America, her graciousness in re-
spending to encores, the mellowness OF
her voice, the wondrously pearly
purity of her tone and that magnetic
and dramatic temperament which has
made her the queen of Wagnerian
opera, in both Germany and America,
being responsible for it.
The offerings of Mme Nordica are
rare specimens of art in program max
ing, and while the great prima donna
gives her assisting artists splendid OPP
portunity she still gives her public a
great feast of song. Not fewer than
twelve to fourteen important numbers
in addition to great aria are her con-
tributions each evening. These songs
will be rendered in English, French,
italian and German, as originally writ
ten.
The Nordica on the concert stage is
a more human Nordica than when
heard in grand opera; she seems near
err and more a part of her audience.
separated from the theatric and scenic
environments of the operate stage.
Away from the sounding orchestra, the
dramatic climaxes and the interfering
chorus, the true witchery of the Nor
dica voice asserts itself and brings the
tribute of glistening tears, the murmur
of satisfaction or thunderous applause.
The numbers for tonight are
Polonaise in A Flat Chopin, Miss Showers

SAYS CITY WILL BE
RIVIERA OF AMERICA
NOTED FOREIGNER PRAISES
LOS ANGELES
Austrian Doctor Pleased with Every
thing American, with Single Ex-
ceptlon of Apparent Lack of
Police Protection

Los Angeles will be the Riviera of
America" is the enthusiastic manner
in which DR.. Gustav Topper of Carls-
bad and Vienna, Austria, a guest OF
the Van Mugs, eulogized this city last
night in an entertaining talk with
The Herald.
DR.. Topper is the head of one of
the famous resorts of Carlsbad. He
will stay in the city but a few days,
wholly for pleasure. His home, he
says, is in Vienna, and his sharp, steel
eyes twinkled brighter as he appar-
entity spanned the distance between
Los Angeles and the gay Austrian cap
ital. 1t is his custom, he explained, to
take frequent journeys to foreign
countries; to look around, he said, and
to learn those many things in the
medical world which only personal OBJ
servation can give him.
Il am so pleased with Los Angeles.
continued the doctor in English which
had in it but a tinge of foreign &C
cent, land so surprised. 1 don't be-
lieve you are appreciated. Your eli
mate is so equable, your scenery SO
beautiful and you have so much life
here.
In Europe the ground now is Gov
cred with snow, and it is cold; but
here the sun is warm and the air is
clear and fresh and balmy.
you have grown rapidly, have you
not? Some day you will be larger
than San Francisco, do you think?
When the great artists and the great
journalists and your wealthy mer-
chants all over the country have fin
ished their work and are ready to re-
tire to rest they will come here. The
climate to the north is too cold, is 1t
not? That is, for pleasure. 1t is
splendid for business, of course, but
pleasure-seeking people want life
where the climate is delightful. You
are like Venice, Italy, or those cities
where else in Europe have they such a
pleasant climate.
But there is one thing that you
must look out for-your police. You
scare people a little by the stories. We
go anywhere in Europe and are safe.
We go out for an evening, either alone
or in a party, and when we are ready
to go home we call a cab. But in
America you cannot always find the
cab and you oftentimes have to walk
a long way. If you are stranger and
you do not know the streets you are
nervous. And so, you see, we foreign
ers lose a great deal of pleasure in the
enjoy. Our evenings are our time for
pleasure. You must make it safe for
us when we visit your American
cities.
But I do not criticise you, you
know, nor blame you. You have grown
so rapidly and you have been so busy
making money you have not had much
time to think of these things.
"No, I have only praise for your
American cities, and especially for Los
Angeles. You have the life, the beau
tiful country, the delightful climate.
You have a great city, and you are
certain some day to be the Riviera of
