"PoIIy Of the Circus. !"

A conflict of emotions, wherein all
that is hateful is arrayed against all
that is good. is the theme Of the de-
lightful comedy drama. Polly of the
Circus" Frederic Thompson's massive
production which comes to the Audi
torium on January 8.
Circus life is depicted, three scenes
showing ring performance with
regulation size ring bank, the outside of
the tent known as the pad" room,
where the actors timber up, and the
rear of the tent, showing the circus
going away at night after the per-
formance, while the other scenes are
laid in the parsonage Of the Rev. John
Douglass, the village parson, who falls
in love with Polly to the amazement
and distaste of the village people The
gossip starts when Polly is taken to
the Rev, John Douglass home suffer
| ing from an injury received during a
performance of the circus. Deacon
Stronf a pillar of the church. is the
william, and does all he can to hurt
Polly in the eyes of Douglass. who falls
in love with the injured circus rider.
All that is done in opposition makes
Douglass all the more determined to
marry the girl. The last scene shows
the circus going over the hill in the
distance, while Polly and the minister
are left together, she content to give
up the circus for her love for him.
Mr. Thompson has given this pro-
duction his personal attention as to
the scenic equipment and has sur
lpassed anything that he has ever at
tempted and is as truly portrayed as
can be for use on the stage.
This is the same play that was seen
lat the Liberty Theatre, New York City
flor one solid year.

The Unanimous Verdict.

From many articles received from
various sources the past few weeks, it
will be- seen that the comedy, THE
Climax" is strictly first-class attrac-
ton, with more originality and novelty
than any organization that has visited
us in several seasons. It remains to
be seen how the efforts of the local
theatre management will be appre-
ciated.

WREAKS HIS VENGEANCE
On All His Enemies in Prize Contest
Story. "The Counts Hand.".

OF course there is a possibility that
1.-THE Counts Hand" appearing in our
next Sunday Magazine, will not win any
Of the prizes offered for the current COM
petition, but no matter who the winners
may be, not single one of them will
be a stronger tale, with more dramatic
contents or more striking climax. The
author is L. j. BeestOn, formerly sec
contributing to English magazines for the
last twelve years. He has succeeded
over there; but for some reason is little
known to the American reading public.
There is little question that he will be
among the best known here as soon as
magazine publishers can persuade him to
send them mis- manuscripts.
It Is extremely fortunate that our Sun
day Magazine has been able to get this
one. 1.-The Counts Hand" is about an
incident Of the Franco-Prussian war,
wherein the hero. posing as an American
newspaper correspondent, took part in
one of the strangest and most tragic
occurrences of that terrible conflict.
wherein the entire body of five Prussian
officers were wiped out by one because
Of an outrage committed on a counts
home by the commander. And all these
tragic events took place in accordance
with an announcement given to the pro-
spective victims before killing began. de-
spite every precaution that the skilled
and fearless officers could take. The cli-
max is as strange as the authors re-
markable imagination could conceive.
Look for it in The Sunday Star.

greetings and good wishes.
Many Flowers Received.
The large parlor of Mr.. oysters home
was a veritable bed of rare and beautiful
floral tokens from loved ones and friends.
Nor were refreshments and other good
things that lend themselves as happy
auxiliaries to such an occasion forgotten.
Although carrying the weight of four
score and four years, Mr.. Oyster is not
bowed with age or weak with illness, but
in good health and strength.
He has lived in Washington for eighty
one years, since 1880, and has seen the
city develop and grow as have but few
others of her living residents. He has
wonderful recollection of early events in
the city's history, knew nearly all of the
early residents, and has himself played
highly creditable part in the city's
business upbuilding.

Notes BY the Way.

Los ANGELES, CAL. Nov. 30, IL.
Ed. STANDARD:
, Arrived here on the 23d and found
Old Sol shining as usual and TO- day
tits 80 degrees in the shade-quite o
contrast between L. A. and Olympia.
Found the city spreading out in all
directions. The population of L. A.,
according TO the census of 1910, is
2l9, 1873. but is fully 1926, 900 at pres.
ent. It's q great city and will
eventually outrival San Francisco.
The general trend Of population is
toward the ocean; that's westward.
Times seem good here, everone busy
here who wants to work and wages
good. There are more automobiles
than any place west of the Missis.
sippi, and the finest streets you ever
saw. Politics raging. The Social
lists are cutting big figure-the
contest seems to center over the
election Of Mayor-Alexander, Demo-
crat, and Hartman, Socialist, with
the chances, think, in favor OF Alex
ander. The city will also vote on
Prohibition, which l hope will be
defeated by large majority. but it
is hard to predict the effect of the
women's vote. visited the Hall of
Records yesterday and saw one of
the McNamaras and his celebrated
attorney, Clarence barrow. Judge
Bordwell and other celebrities. The

ent monotonous. More soon.

jOyed a social session.
The City Councilmen have under
consideration a protest of Main
street property owners regarding
their assessment for street improve
ments. 1t seems that its origin is
by no means new, that the assess
ment is much larger per foot than
the property owners were told it
would be. Further consideration of
the matter was set for the 18th, at
which time this may become possible
by the termination of the order en-
joining the city from taking action
which expires on the 18th. 1t is
believed that the matter may be
satisfactorily adjusted out of court.

A Delifhtful Experience.

Is there any more delightful sensa-

Der by the strains of sweet music?
If there is. the STANDARD has not
experienced it. 1t was the young

from 9 TO IL years of age. that have
been under the masterful instruc-
tions If Shorty" Davis the past

the beautiful harmony of the "Twi-
light Serenade," last evening, about
10 O'Clock, and after performing a
couple Of their choice selections, pro-
ceeded to treat the new benedict,
George Wagner, in the same man
ner. 1t is not saying enough in de-
claring that the boys play we'll; it
is a marvel that they could be brought
to their present efficiency by q few

It is with heartfelt sincerity we ex-
press the wish that the STANDARD

LESSONS TAUGHT BY ELECTION.

The municipal election this week
affords considerable basis for thought.
Out of a vote of 1906 Commission
form of government was beaten by
only 60 votes and little less than q
couple of score votes would have car
ried proposition that would have
put stop to the present infamous
SpOilS system.
Bridgford's plurality for Mayor
is 1O9. while a majority of the votes
cast for Mayor to elect would have
required 967. OF the scattering
votes Daley received sos and Miss
Sylvester 401. 1t is notable that the
latter candidate carried three wards
the Third, Fourth and Sixth.
Claypool for attorney received L.
O2S votes, Mr.. Fry, his opponent,
not carrying single ward.
Holmes for City Clerk received
519 out of 1913 votes cast for Clerk.
Dever, the Citizens nominee. hither-
to uniformly successful seemed to
have lost his grip; hope only tempo
rarily.
Bracket for Treasurer received
1873 over Mrs. Edings, who pOlled the
largest opposition vote.
Luepke for Councilman-at-large is
another plurality candidate, who
carried enough pluralities in each
ward to aggregate Al; Schomber re-
ceived 4O5 and Miss Sapp 329.
For Councilman of the First ward
Elwell received 278 and Mosher 80;
in the Third Wertheim received 1863,
