"STORMY MEET"
FLOODED WITH
JOKE AND JEST

REPORTS of the stormy ending"
of the commissioners meeting
Monday are slightly exaggerated,
according to a number of persons
who attended the meeting of the
county board. Laughter and good
fellowship seemed to be the rule.
Although the other two commits
sioners did not take kindly to
Commissioner A. G. Simms' idea OF
taking $1,000 appropriated in the
read budget for use in strengthen
ing the levy at Alameda bridge,
there appeared, on the surface at
least. to be no hard feeling about
it as a grin overspread Commits
sioner Max Gutielrez's face when
he told Commissioner Albert Simms
that he didn't believe he wanted 10
second the motion to use the
money. AS near as outsiders could
tell. there was no serious founda-
tion to the reported exclamation of
Mr. Simms, that "If you want to
remove me, go ahead and start OPP
erations," as he reached over and
erinned at Gutierrez as he slapped
him playfully on the back.
Gutierrez suggested tnaI IL pos-
sibly was not lawful for the com
mission to take road money Tor
Ieyee purposes-and that such an
action might cause criticism.
Mr.. Simms reply was: Il think
II is the best thing to do. and
they'll probably critieise us any
how. i've reached the point where
criticism gives me an appetite Tor
breakfast"
Whereupon, instead of getting
mad, as is indicated in some re
ports. Gutierrez grinned and
agreed with him. but did not sec
ond the motion. Another small
matter was brought up. Mr.. Simmss
assisted in attending to that and
then another unimportant question
came up for decision. Mr.. Simms
happened to look at his watch at
this moment. and finding 1t was
later than he had thought. put on
his hat and coat and left. his race
wreathed in smiles of good humor,
as were the faces Of the other two

Concerning Peter Grimm.
The current performance OF 'aThe
Return Of Peter Grimm" at the
Belasco Theatre represents the art Of
the theatre in such fine estate that
the representation stands in peculiar
relation to the rest Of the plays to be
seen just now One could almost, as
1t were, draw a line OF division be-
tween them, such a line indeed as put
Mr.. Belasco's production in a place of
it's own and left the rest Of the plays
somewhere else.
1t may not be that their perform
ance is necessarily inferior or any less
Illustrative Of the newest and best in
stage art. Wherever 1.-THE Return OF
Peter Grimm" might be It would GER
tainly be altogether different from
anything else In the contemporaneou
theatre
1t is not alone In the apparitions of
Mr.. Warneld in the second and third
acts that the extreme skill Of Mr..
Belasco in mechanics Is shown.
There could be nothing truer nor
lovelier than the atmosphere Of the
gardeners home in the first act. The
picture is built up with the meticulous
beauty of Dutch interior of the sew
enteenth century. Every stroke is care
fully paid In its place. but in the per-
feet sense of home and ioveliness Of
life that results there are no traces of
the craftsman.
The result Is most exquisitely re-
vealed, but the workmanship which
created its qualities is f1owhere visible
This is In reality the art that conceals
art; in other words the perfect art o,
which Mr.. Belasco is the supreme
master In our theatre.

Tragedy for Miss Lawrence.
The medieval Spanish tragedy which
Sam Harris has accepted from William
Archer Will not after all be produced
until after Christmas. Mr.. Archer Is
anxious to be here for the first perform
ance and Mr.. Harris is just as anxious
to have him here. Hence the postpone
