ALL ARTS OF THEATER
ARE CO-ORO|NA1ED
DiaghilcH Ballet Nurse, Coming
Here Next Monday.

The secret Of the sensational sue
cess of the celebrated Serge de
Diaghilef Ballet Russo. which comes
to the Academy of Music next Mon
day for one day only, lies in the fact
that for the first time on any stage
all the arts of the theater have been
co-ord'nated into one harmonious
whole. and the magic ensemble result
ing has made critics proclaim the
spectacle one such as never before has
been viewed by human eyes.
A new conception of terpsichorean
art has come into being, effecting not
merely the artistic appreciation. but
the technical methods of the dancers
themselves; as a result of this won
derful organization, Diaghileff's Bal
let Russo, rejecting itself not only In
the harmonic innovations of the COM
posers, but also by the daring juxto-
position of color and form in the mat
ter or costumes. These innovations
have made themselves felt not merely
in the scenery and in the stage direc-
tons. but in international wearing ap-
parel. interior decorations and even
In architecture
Tho Diaghileff Ballet contains four
forms of artistic expression-a dra-
matte performance, a symphonic con-
tCi - oil al tkfiiDit anu u haItt Pr
gram--in such a manner that the
cumulative effect is an artistic unit.
Music, color and pantomime are each
shown in the highest state of this
present development. The vast stage
properties and bizarre costumes de-
signed by Leon Bakst, the foremost
decorative artist of the time, are IN
surpassed for beauty and color

THREATENS To HOLD
UP CERTIFICATES
CALIFORNIA; Secretary of State Wants
Two Counties Returns
Corrected.

: Sacramento, Cal. Nov. Score
tarv of State Jordan announced to-
day that the official returns of the
presidential election from two Coun-
ties Orange and Guba, were incom-
plete, and that unless the Republi-
can and Democratic state Committees
see to it that the mistakes are cor
reCted, he may deem it his duty to
withhold certificates OF election to the
presidential electors from California,
in order that an evil precedent may
not he established
Jordan said that he had set forth
the situation as he saw 1t to Gavin
McNahh, Of san Francisco. one of the
members OF the Democratic National
Committee, and to Raymond Benja-
min. also of San Francisco, chairman
of the Republican State Central Com
mittee. Jordan added that lit Is up
to the State committees to get busy
and complete the returns"
One Precinct Missing.
Orange Countys delinquency. ac-
cording to Jordan, lies in the fact
that the returns from one precinct
that of Orangethorpe--are entirely
missing This Is due to the fact that
the election clerks enclosed the sheet
containing the names Of the candi-
dates and the votes in tho envelope
containing the ballots. This envelope
cannot be opened except upon order
of a court
In Yuba County the vote for Dorina
Handley. Democratic elector, Is not
given from Marshville Precinct. No.
T. Each of the other twelve electors
in this precinct had ninety-six voteA
Election clerks failed to extend the
sum of the votes Tailed for Handley
into the total column, and hence
Handley's vote IL not given.
Orange County was strongly Repub-
lican. In Yuba County the total vote
was: Hughes. 1881: Wilson, 1870. In
Marysvile Precinct. No. 6, the vote
was recorded: Hughes, Ga; Wilson, SO.
As the canvass has now progressed,
lhe vote OF neither Orangethorpe pre-
clnct nor the Marysvile precinct
would affect the result OF the election
in California, as Wilson could lose
both precincts and still carry the en-
tire thirteen electoral votes.
Secretary of state Jordans threat
ened action promises to delay beyond
Monday, November a. the issuance of
certificates of election TO the Demo-
cratic presidential electors as the law
says that this must be done ION the
last Monday in the month of the cleo
ton, or as soon as returns have been
received from all counties In the
State"
Jordan said tonight that he will
reserve his final action as to whether
or not to withhold the certificates I'M
til later.
