ED SITUATION.

LOS ANGELES, March l5.-W.

" BY the City Council for Mayor to

1t has been the rule, and decidedly
not the exception, for a manager who
puts forth a road company to seldom

could be presented separately and each
draw upon its respective merits and

adhered to, for a star is presented in
