JOHN P. WADE WINS HONOR
OF WEEKS ORPHEUM BILL

La Tortajada, billed as the feature
act Of this weeks Orpheum program,
proved a distinct disappointment to
yesterday afternoons audience, judged
by the scant applause she received.
This beautiful Spanish woman has en-
meshed herself in protean operetta,
the story of which it is necessary to
help along it's limping way with a
crutch of very cheap moving pictures.
The performer deserves sympathy, for
she is jewel in a brass setting.
There is pretty story told in ''Marse
Shelby's Chicken Dinner" as presented
by John p. Wade and company. The
incidents, pathetic and humorous, are
well nodded into the sketch, which for
twenty minutes or more kept the au-
dience in a gale of laughter OCCASION
allye dampened by a tear. John p.
Wade in his delineation of the aged
negro servitor OF gentleman of the
south whose fortunes were reversed
by the civil war. and who at the time
of the action of the playlet is in Wash
ington endeavoring to secure the pay
ment OF a war claim, is quiet, dignitied
and all we might imagine would go
with the makeup of a house servant of
the days of slavery.
Paul Quinn and Joe Mitchell are the
men behind the battery of rapid fire
shots concealed in a comedy entitled
1.-THE Land Agent" The team LOOK
a good amount of laughs.
The Flying Martins present a bewil-
deringly exciting double trapeZe turn,
with a thrill in every movement of its
execution.
Hal Stephans, presenting scenes from
famous plays, and Meyers, Warren and
Lyon in a whirlwind of song and dance,
led the holdovers from last week, fol-
lowed by the six Abdallahs, the Amer
ican tumblers, the Joseph Adelmann
family, xylophonists and a good roll OF
motion pictures taken in the Canadian
northwest.
Black is said to be favorite color
of Madame Nazimova. who comes to
Hamburger's Majestic theater next
Monday for a weeks engagement. 1t
has been noted that the actress almost
always dresses her characters in this
shade. And yet, according to all re-
ports, Nazimova is not personally of
a gloomy disposition. But on the stage
a repertoire which includes Little
Evolf." "a Dolls House" and "The
Fairy Tale" demands somber tones
Nazimova will appear in all three of
these plays during her engagement
here next week:
A sudden change was made yester-
day in the Burbank plans for next
week, and instead of Texas" following
1.-THE Yankee Prince" now in its sec
ond week, "The Grand Army Man"
has been substituted. This play viii
be remembered as one of David War
fields greatest successes in Los An
geles. A. Byron Beasley will return
from his two weeks idleness to play
the Warfleld part. This is the sort Of
role in which he is most at home.

CLAIM FRANCHISE BARS
SCHOOL FARE REDUCTION
Railway Declines to Lower Rate
to Students Over 18 Years

Members of the board of education want
to know IL there is anything in the street
railway franchises which makes it impos-
sble for the street railway companies to
grant reduced fares to pupils in the public
schools up to the age of 81 years. At pres
ent reduced rates are allowed only to pupils
of Is and under. This the board believes,
has led to mendacity the part of older
pupils and consequently a communication
was sent to the companies a short time
ago asking that the age limit be extended.
Last night an answer was received deny
ing the request and explaining that the
matter of school rates is fixed by city fran
chises granted to the companies. The let
ter was signed by w. e. Dunn, attorney for
the Huntington interests. 1t was referred
to the city attorney. who will be asked
to say whether the raising of the age limit
could possibly be construed as endangering
the roads franchise rights

PARIS, Nov. 14.-The Seine. which
