PLAZA THEATRE

There is fun galore in the vaude- vile program that Manager Callan has arranged at the Plaza for the lat ter half of the week and each act is making an individual Init. The Rose Troupe in their hilarious acrobat1c od- dity entitled 'The Rising Generation is the big attraction and the audi ences at every performance are ind ing oceans of enjoyment in the stunts performed by this talented organiza- ton. There are eight people in the act. Marron, Heins & LaMar, origi- nators of tabloid 1ninstrelsy, offer twenty minutes of wholesome fun and song in their comedy first part min etrek Carl Rosine Go. in an illusion act that keeps the curiosity of the auditors keyed up to its highest pitch is another big feature of the program A new clock trick and the passing of hoops between his thumbs while they are knotted fast together caused the most wonderment. Taida Bunker, a pretty young woman with 9. pleasing voice, had things her own way while she held the stage, for the audiences were appreciative from the start. Then come Hanscomb & Vernon in a snappy singing and dancing skit that has enough dash to it to win instant suc- cess before any audience. That Min Strel Man. a Keystone comedy; "Jin,'' a two reel American dramatic story with an unusual theme, and "On the Border compose theN photoplay program.

Los Angeles, Gal, Aug. 21.-The Los Angeles Tribune says:
 ."The fiscal year ended June 30 and it's termination served to spell pros perity for all of Southern California
 From every channel of finance from the Governments sources of revenue, from the city's mart where money comes and goes, the clearing house, from the coffers of the mer- chants, small and largTcone the ttdings at the close of day that the period of time which commenced on the first day of last July has been richer and buster than at any other time in the history of the city. Los on what promises to be it's most gen timely prosperous season, at least if the announcements made yesterday are to be regarded with any degree of significance.
 Internal revenue, above all, estab- hshed its efficiency as a money-maker for Uncle Sam. The total for the fiscal year amounted, according to the statement made by the collector, to $1,S86,086.80. This presents evidence of a remarkable increase over the revenue derived for the fiscal year ending a year ago, when the total was $1,389, ,9S5.67.
 ''The bank c1earings since the first and clearings for the month of June aggregated $e8,923,979, or an increase of s3,7s9,179 over the corresponding 2 month of last year.

PARK THEATRE
Review.)s

(RevieW.)
 A review of the Al Reeves Beauty Show is expected. This is hardly pos eib1e, for the show is not in shape to warrant one and should not have been opened to real money yesterday. For this reason casual mention only of the principal incidents at last nights showing will be made.
 Metaphorically speaking and parody ing the words used by Al so often, he has been given too much credit and the fun-business nearly went into bankruptcy last night.
 Al appeared in person and began his old line of talk. He got as far as the usual Glad to get back to my old home-Bridgeport ? when the gallery had him stopped A similar experi- ence during the afternoon had un- nerved him and he began an address to the audience. This was both er- ratio and erotic but held the com ment in check. Admitting he did not know his lines and that the show was a, verse which took with the house and bowed himself out.
 The show Is rather a mixture of ex- travaganza, spectacle, opera and vaudeville than the accepted burlesque and as neither costume book. music, or rehearsals are complete, little ma terial or routine was put over for a laugh. The skeleton Of this show however, is big and when it has been corn-fed for a while will wound out into a pleasing body.
 The show opens in a palace setting with a spectacle called Browning the King The audience expected Reeves but did not recognize Bdxley in the makeup. There were some ludicrous features to the ensemble as much cos tune was missing and other make shifts had to be resorted to which in the confusion on the stage resulted in a motley showing. Miss Edith Swan. a grand concert pianist, followed but did not score owing apparently to hard adtion of the piano used. Faust Up to Date'' likewise lacked the ginger that was needed with the voices under command of the musical director This was followed by four dancers, Gehan, Adams and the Misses Bennington | and Callinan. They did put it over for the only hit of the evening in 8 wGlirl- wind relay of clever dancing. The house rose up to do them honor. Miss Swan and her Nfusikal girls came next and though giving a pleasing exhibi- | t1on that promises much, nervousness at the outset held them down.
 l Edward Bixley appeared in a bur- l letta, The Wanderer from Nowhere, 9 | after the intermission, and showed | that he is not only a. comedian but a musician as well. Had he had the l support needed the piece would have
 been a riot. AS it happened lie was | apparently under the necessity of moi only giving cues but covering up loss- es impromptu- Other numbers, includ- 1 ing the models. were likewise handi- | capped by lack of rehearsal and to l date the affair is a sad one, for it has | attempted big things and Topped.

A HOUSE OF CARDS FALLEN.
The True Story of the Collapse of the
 C1afIin Dry Goods Firm.

The more the C1af1in failure is stud jed, the clearer grows the indictment of the business system which the con cern represent There was no req son inherent in present trade condi- tions for such collapse. Money has been cheap for months, and the banks have had a great abundance to loan on good commercial paper. To say that a concern must go into bank r11pty because trade slackens is to say that a slackening of trade must send all enterprises into bankruptcy, and that business is entitled to be consfd- cred merely a fair weather proposi- ton. with no obligations to organize itrseIf so as to ride out the usual storms of each business generation.
 Here was @ concern that was uni versally recognized as the greatest in it's line, with remarkable prestige, and assumed to enjoy the best of management. Yet, in commenting on the failure, the New York Times, which is par excellence the business mans organ remarks: tIt is a house of cards which has fallen.'' As a trade combination, with 'tchains'' of stores scattered over the country. 1t went ballooning in as crazy a way as one often reads about. Stated in banker like term. to quote a Wall street hnan- cier:
 A process of expansion which called
 
 finally gave way under its own weight
 what the New Haven was in rail- reading, the C1af1tn company seems to have been in merchandising. The par alIe1 in some ways is striking. In both cases one finds the old, we'll established concern with a character beyond reproach and a reputation for unfailing profit and dividends trans formed into an overweighted, un- wteldy and unmanageab1e enterprise Ideas of business prudence tested by centuries of experience were thrown to the winds in financing them. The principle of combination was supposed to carry some magic with it capable of nullifying even the multiplication table.
 Such episodes in our business devel- opment may shatter confidence, but the confidence shattered is the plain mans 6aith in the wisdom with which American business has been guided in the past fifteen years of it's unparal- leled expansion along the lines of combination and monopoly.-spring- field Republican
