Observation-Disclosures oliver Mo-
rosco's musical comedy production
of Gay New York" will occupy
the Burbank stage beginning with
a matinee performance this after
noon. The piece, played by one OF
Gus Hills companies In the east last
season. never has been seen here. 1t is,
no ~ever, said to be a merry, musical
mixup with the usual slender plot, con-
structed for laughing purposes only,
and with number of unusual and pic
turesque features which should serve
to carry 1t far toward local popularity.
To begin with there will be a "Sa-
lome" chorus in Gay New York." in
which sixteen Salomes will appear upon
the stage, In support of Blanche Hall
and A. Byron Beasley. Then there will
be football girls. dancing girls, Buster
Browns and Mary James, moon girls
and other girls, almost without num-
Der.
Sixteen musical numbers will be in
troduced in the piece, most of them
carefully selected from the song hits
now in vogue in New York. Next sea-
son these songs will be featured by
travelling companies but the Burbank
viii have offered them first. Song
numbers, in solo, duet, quartet and
with chorus will be contributed by
William Desmond-his first attempt in
this line-Blanche Hall, Jessie Mae
Hall, Charles Giblyn, Mango buffet, A.
Byron Beasley, Henry Stockbridge AMI
the Marquis Ellis quartet
The chorus. especially organized for
this production, and which will be util-
lied later in the summer company
Morosco expects to install in Hambur-
gers Majestic theater, has been drilled
in it's dancing by Miss Mildred Mar
tin, who gained her experience in this
work with the Henry w. Savage forces,
and has been rehearsed In its singing
by George Towle, a veteran from the
old Augustin DAILY school of comic OPP
era. New and picturesque costumes
have been provided and nothing has
been left undone to make Gay New
York" the biggest musical comedy hit
ever achieved at the Burbank.
LOS ANGELES THEATER-The
most marked feature of the COM
ing weeks bill at the Los Angeles
theater Is again its diversity, the pro-
gram comprising six new acts. in which
comedy, acrobatics, music and dane
ing all have a place. The dancing
number on the bill will mark an I'M
usual departure for this house, which
throughout the season has maintained
a conservative policy, carefully keeping
away from anything tIldI might OF
fend the modesty of its women patrons.
The dance OF Onetta, however, is not
an immodest dance, nor Is 1t immod-
estly costumed. Onetta Is an Oriental,
TO be sure, but her dancing Is free
from the Objectionable contortions
that have brought the dances of the
east into disrepute.
The Borsini troupe of acrobatic nov
city globe rollers will make their first
Los Angeles appearance at this house.
Carroll and Cooke, comedians of much
merrymaking ability, are announced as
"The Men of the Hour" though 1t is

Elma Elwood, 1.-THE sweet singer"

mated pictures will complete the pro-
gram.

clerk behaved badly during convention
week, but the sunshine of the past
week did much toward redeeming the
fame of the sunny southland. Many
warm friendships were made and the
visitors carry with them to their
homes the best wishes of the working
force that remains behind.
The various lodges of the city did
much to entertain the visiting mem
bers, and the escort teams showed
them the proficiency of that line of
work in the home city. The uniform

commissioners now in Office are not
entitled to receive the Increased sal
any voted by the general assembly in
the 1909 amendment 10 the election
law. according 10 an opinion given out
by Attorney General stead Yesterday.
Chief clerks of the commissioners are
entitled TO the Increased salary. as
they are held TO be appointive officers
and not named for any definite lcnsth
of service. For This reason the al.
tornoy general holds they are not pro
hibitcd from receiving the additional
salary.
Commissioners are declared 10 be
municipal officers and named for Il
stated period and while holding office
the general assembly is held to lack
the power to increase their compensa-
ton, the same as of other municipal
