There are several roads lead.
ing to Meade which several miles
out need repairing. Some of
them are among those recently
located by the county board and
never have been Travelled. The
farmers who want them put in
order before threshing time say
that there are no road overseers
for the districts. 1t is the duty
of the township trustee to APP
point a road overseer for such
districts, and the appointment
should be made at once and the
work done before harvest comes
on. Teams and men can be hir-
ed or obtained from the farms.
Get busy on the road work now.
Geo. Erickson, who has been
in Oregon for nearly year, re.
turned last week to his home
here. Geo. is much taken with
the mountain life. He has seen
most of the Rocky Range from
Salt Lake City north to north
ern Washington and the Blue
and the Cascade mountains from
the South Pass to Seattle. He
expects to take his fathers fam
lily there to live in the near fut-
ure, which means that Hans will
sell his fine valley farm which it
has taken the best portion of his
life to put it into its present pro-
ductive condition. Hans will
take up his life in country SIM
liar to that of his youth and on
little home place enjoy the fruits
of his labor. George worked a
part of the time while he was
there in a saw-mill, high up on
the range, where great logs are
cut into, boards and dimension
lumber faster than one who is
not used to such work could i'm
agine it could be done.

The High School Play

Tuesday night the high school
play, "Silas the Chore Boy" was pu:
on at Phelps opera house by the pu-
pills of the school. The matter was
under the direction of Prof. Morrow
who drilled the actors and managed
the play. Space is limited so that
we cannot mention the good plays
of the different boys and girls who
made up the cast of characters.
The play netted the school about
SIS. 90. There was a good crowd
out and the interest was we'll fixed
from the start. We have heard
many compliments for the players.
The success of the play was due
largely to Prof. Morrow's efforts to
bring 1t up to and above the average
of student presentations. If the
school had been managed for the
first part of the term as we'll as it
was after the change in principals,
We would have had better results
from the time used in this winters
school and better returns for the
money paid.
We learn that there is an effort be-
ing made to have he pupils present
the play ar Fowler and at Plains.

Music Notes

Verdi night at the Auditorium last
night gave every member of the Be-
vani opera company full opportunity to
do his best work. 1t was an all-star
night in reality, since almost without
exception every member of this big
company is we'll entitled to stardom in
his or her own particular role.
The bill, which included acts from ''Il
Trovatore," la Traviata "Aida" and
"Rigoletto," was delightful. Brilliant
singing, an orchestral accompaniment
of excellent value and chorus support
of more than ordinary strength made
the program one of great interest.
Members of the Dante Alighieri soci-
ETY. of Los Angeles occupied the boxes
and loges of the house, and boxes were
draped with flags of both Italy and
America. Emblems and insignia of va
rious Italian orders were worn, and
the house was decorative to a degree
The orchestra played the italian ma
tional anthem, following with the Star
Spangled Banner" and the audience
rose enthusiastically to this occasion,
The program was as announced ex-
cent that Umberto Sacchetti sang the
part of the Duke in Rigoletto, instead
of Battain, who was announced for the
role. Applause and bouquets were CIV
en- freely to all the woman members of
the company, and Roberto F'rancini,
under whose baton the excellent presen-
tations of italian opera have been
given, received a handsome floral en-
blem from the members of the Dante
Alighieri society
The announcement that the company
will remain at the Auditorium for a
fourth week will be hailed with delight
by the thousands of music lovers who
during the past three weeks have
packed the Auditorium. Three per-
formances of la Boheme" are prom
ised as special attractions for the
fourth week, and should prove of ex-
ceptional interest.
The Bevanis will give Lucia" this
afternoon. Vioarino, Alberti and Bat
tain will sing the principal roles. For
the evening performance Martha" the
popular operetta of Flotow, will be the
bill. Francini, de Dreux, Campana and
sacchetti will be the principals.
One of the principal characteristics
which has given Gadshi high rank
among the great singers of our day is
her remarkable intellectual capacity.
The possessor of a dramatic soprano
voice, the diva is also endowed with
an emotionalism that thrills the lis
tener to the very fibre.
Personally endowed with magnetism
and womanly charm, reinforced by
singular good judgment in the selec-
tion of her gowns, Nine. Gadsld plays
with the emotions of her hearers as
pianist plays on the keys of his in
strument. Student rates will be given
at Temple auditorium tomorrow aft
ernoon.

District Federation of Woman'S Clups'
gave a talk yesterday before the high
land Park Ebell club on Home
Making" She pointed out the similar
ity of methods by which homes ana ma
cities are made. Beauty and healtn
are necessary features of each ana
neither can be obtained without much
personal work. Miss Moore advocated
the teaching of lessons on this sub
iect around the home table and SAID:

ceive attention"
Mrs. g. l.. Torrance, chairman of
the committee of the district on child
labor, said that there was practically
no child in this county forced to work.

and suggested that the securing or

Miss Sarah Judson of the Highland
Park Civic association made some
suggestions concerning the establish
ment of a branch library and the
matter was finally left to the discre-
ton of Purd B. Wright, the city libra
rian There is a strong sentiment IN
the club that the Occidental library
building will make suitable and con-
venent location for the establishment
of this branch.
Highland Park Ebell joined the
ranks of protestors concerning high
steps to the street cars, especially
those of the Pasadena avenue line.
Members of the club will present q
resolution to the street car company
asking that lower steps be provided
on new cars.
Music was furnished by Mrs. Harry

F. ]. Brimhall at the piano.
Mrs. H. C. Cover was in charge OF

PEDESTRIANS AND AUTOS
ENDANGERED BY RUNAWAY

Two horses hitched to wagon
loaded with brick became frightened
at a passing automobile on Spring
street yesterday morning and ran
ran away, endangering scores of Pc
destrians and automobilists.
Starting between Fourth and Fifth,
the animals turned into Fifth street.
AS they ran they turned from one side
of the street to the other, throwing
the bricks in all directions. At Main
and Fifth streets they ran into tele-
phone pole and were caught.
The wagon was only slightly dam
aged. The name of the driver was
pot learned.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-11-16

Some novel musical and scenic effects
are introduced.
AL Franks, Billy Onslow, Earl Hall
and Harry Garrity display their fun
making proclivities in a way that ap-
peals most emphatically to the risi-
bilities of the audience.
The plot of the show revolves about
the shipwreck of party of American
tourists on a desert isle, where a
beautiful princess has been imprisoned
by a cruel despot. With this as a
basis there is plenty of opportunity to
weave in situations of various sorts,
and to interpolate appropriate
musical numbers. IN the latter Kate
Carlson especially features and has
one or two dancing specialties that
take well.
This is the last week of the Ameri-
can Travesty Stars at the Princess.
Next week will see Fred Ardath, one
of the most popular comedians yet
seen at the First street house, back
on the stage. With him will return
the old favorites, Bonny Browning,
soubrette, and Stella Adams, prima
donna.
