SECTIONAL AIRS NUMEROUS
IN SOUSA'S PROGRAM
Bandmaster Appreciates People's Love
for Such Pieces and Is Liberal
with Them, Despite Clas.
sical Selections
John Philip Sousa recognizes and ap
preciates the people's fondness for na
tional and sectional airs and Is not ad
verse to mixing them In with the most
classical programs. He has learned this
fact from his intimate acquaintance with
American audiences, and as an example
recalls an incident at Fayetteville, N. C.
Upon his arrival in the town with his
band he was waited upon by the com
mittee that had charge of the musicil
program. One of them finally suggested
that they play "Dixie." "You know, col
onel," he said, "we folks down here ares
mighty fond of 'Dixie.' "
Sousa assumed an air of great Im
portance and said: "Gentlemen of the
committee, I suppose you ask whether I
play 'Dixie' because I am In the service
of the United States and because you sup
pose 'Dixie' Is only a sectional tune. I
beg your indulgence for thoughtful con
sideration."
The committee withdrew abashed. It
was In celebration of the Mecklenburg
declaration of Independence that the exer
cises were being held and the first event
was held the following day. The gov
ernor gave the address of welcome ami
was followed by Senator Vance, who
dwelt on the southern love of home. As
he was speaking Sousa whispered to his
men to prepare to play "Dixie" when he
had finished. And they did. The Im
mense crowd whooped and danced, and
clouds of hats went into the air.
For that week Sousa's program read in
this manner: "Overture, "William Tell,"
"Dixie," scenes from "Faust," "Dixie,"
"Blue Danube Waltz," "Dixie."
Helps for Dinner and Ijuncheon.
It Is the little delicacies, the dainty sur
prises that are the most difficult to plan
and provide, and yet constitute the differ
ence between the commonplace dinner or
luncheon and the unusual.
There are a great many tempting bis
cuit and wafers made by the National
Biscuit company, which are exactly ap
propriate for every occasion. Among the
most popular of these are Social Tea Bis
cuit.
These are small, slightly sweetened bis
cuit, and can be used so universally —
for afternoon tea — with creams and Ices—
for luncheon or supper— wiy> dessert— or
as a nibble at any time of day— that a few
boxes on hand, ready to open at a mo
ment's notice, will save lots of worry
and scurry when casual guests drop In
unexpectedly.
They are almost like a delicious cake In
flavor, but crisp and crackly, this crisp
ness and flavor being perfectly preserved
by the protecting package, which ex
cludes all dust and moisture and keeps
the contents fresh' and clean. The pack
age is very pleasing and artistic, so de
signed that the Social Tea Biscuit may be
served from the box. This is the most
attractive way to serve them and the
right way to get their perfect flavor.
All grocers have Social Tea Biscuit. The
first package will show you their possi
bilities.

BALFE OPERA
WELL LIKED
THE CITY
"BOHEMIAN GIRL" PREBENTED
ANNIE BAUMANN SINGB ARLINE
CITY NEWS IN BRIEF
Balfe's tuneful romantic opera of "Tho
Bohemian Girl" was presented on the
stage of the Los Angeles theater last
night under difficulties. Miss Aida Hemmi
remained in her hotel under a physician's
care, and the role of Arllne was sing
by Miss Annie Baumann, formerly of
Fischers theater. Moreover. Carl Hajdn,
whom the management had hoped would
arrive In time to sing Thaddeus, has not
yet reached tho city, and consequently
Eugene Weiner sang the role. On top of
this, 'Fred Rogers, cast as Florestlne,
went >out to East Hollywood yesterday
afternoon, was delayed by a street car
tieup. finally started for the theater in
an. automobile which broke down after
half of the distance had been traversed
and arrived on the stage at Just 8:25, ten
minutes after the curtain should have
been rung up on the first act. It was
neither Friday, nor the thirteenth; but it
was hoodoo night again at the Los An
geles.
Miss Baumann Scores Success
Despite these difficulties, however, the
melodious old opera was given an enjoy
able presentation and the large audience
present had little of which to complain.
Miss Baumann, who Jumped into the try
ing role of Arllne with very little prep
aration, naturally displayed nervousness
in the opening act, but as the opera pro
gressed the audience applauded her ef
forts, and the result was a performance
•*Slch, all things considered, was highly
creditable. Miss Baumann has a sweet
voice, of no great power to be sure, but
of pleasing quality and effective in the
lighter passages. In her solos she was
somewhat uncertain, as might have been
expected, but In the ensemble numbers,
and notably In the second act quartet,
"From the "Valleys and the Hills," she
was at her best. Moreover her singing
of "I Breamt That I Dwelt in Marble
Halls- amply merited the* applause It re
ceived.
Mt\ Weiner, too, seemed quite at home
In the role of Thaddeus and sang the part
better than he has sung anything in
which he has been heard here. "The Fair
Land of Poland" was given with fine
effect, and his duets with Miss Baumann
were well rendered.
The musical laurels of the night, how
ever, were carried away by Arthur Cun
ningham as Count Arnheim, whose sing
ing of "The Heart Bowed Down" proved
a distinct treat. Miss Beatty sang the
queen effectively and acted the role as
well as she sang It. Kunkel was a
humorous Devilshoof, y though not up to
the musical requirements of the part. Hla
foolery In the third act was much en-
Joyed by the audience.
Otis Skinner's romantic comedy, first
produced under the title of "Prince Ru
dolph," and later rewritten and again
given to. the stage under the name of
"Prince Otto," to avoid confusion with
that other Prince Rudolph whose surname
was Rassendyl, was revived at the Bur
bank yesterday afternoon before the us
ual large and enthusiastic matinee audi
ence. The play served Mr. Skinner sev
eral seasons, and has been presented by
him In' all of tne larger cities of the
country. Since then it has been done In
stock frequently, and always with suc
cess. The present revival at the Bur
bank constitutes no exception to this
rule.
Story Is Interesting
\The tale told is the old but always
Interesting story j>t a wily minister who
plots the overthrow of the reigning dy
nasty, and who Is foiled In the en,',
through the sudden awakening of the
figurehead princeling whose throne is
threatened. Prince Otto 1$ a mighty
hunter before his lords, a puppet before
his counselors and a weakling before his
wife. Ultimately he learns to cherish his
love • for his princess, but It requires a
revolution to bring about that much-to
be-desired eventuality.
The plotter Is Baron yon Gondremark,
prime minister of. Kronefeld, a man who
wears honors upon his breast but none
within it. He plans 10 make of Krone
feld a republic in name, with himself as
dictator; and then an empire, with the
dictator turned emperor. His plans, how
ever, miscarry, largely because he makes
the egregious blunder of trusting two
women at once, both of whom chance to
be In love with their sovereign and one
of whom Is that sovereign's wife.
A. Byron Beasley plays the rascally
minister, a man swayed solely by ambi
tion, and his work was so much to the
liking of yesterday's audience that th«y
Insisted upon 'his answering a curtain
call, even though he had Just been
stabbed, presumably to death, by the
princess, played by Miss Blanche Hall.
This is the true test of popularity at the
Burbank, and it was bestowed yesterday
In" abundant measure. At the close of the
fourth act the applause was so insistent
that Miss Hall, Miss Gilbert, Mr. Dcs
UNDER DIFFICULTIES
ON SHORT NOTICE
Miss Aida Hemml Too 111 to Appear
and Local Singer Takes the
ROle Pending Her Re
covery
A Los Angeles Quartet
The chorus was Increased last night by
the addition of four Los Angeles girls.
The ensemble numbers were given with
spirit and with good musical quality.
There are several absurdities In the
staging ot the opera which should "oe
remedied. For Instance, no gypsy band
ever presented so large a proportion of
very blonde young women as does this
one, and the display of diamonds made
by Miss Raymond as Buda In the first
act Is decidedly out of place. Some day
Miss Raymond will have those "jewels"
stolen, and then, If her press agent is
persuasive, she may get her name into
the papers.
"The Bohemian Girl" will continue
through the week. It Is hoped that Miss
Hemml may be able to resume her part
of Arllne tonight— her trouble Is only a
severe cold — but if she does not do so
Miss Baumann will continue In the role.
Miss Baumann, by the way, formerly
was In the San Francisco chorus. She
retired from the stage a few months ago,
following her marriage to a Los Angele3
man, but her success last niglit led Man
ager Healy to make her. an offer which
she has accepted, and she will Join the
company when the San Franciscans leave
here for the north, provided the suave
Healy is able to "square matters" with
her husband, who is now away from
home and who knows nothing of his
wife's return to the footlights.
BURBANK PLAYERS REVIVE
SKINNER'S "PRINCE OTTO"
The play is frank melodrama, its locale
one of the apocryphal principalities of
Europe, bprdering on the domain of his
most august majesty, Emperor Francis
Joseph. Its story is <ie of love and po
litical intrigue. Its m<— are brave In
highly decorative uniforms; Its women
gracious In -court gowns. Thus the stage
pictures are colorfu- and effective.

OLD PLAY'S SUCCESS A
GOOD THING FOR "DUTCH"
Monday Is pay day at the Grand, and
the "Sunday touch" Is a popular institu
tion among employes of tho Main street
playhouse.
Yesterday the management of the Grand
presented a play for which they did not
have a single sheet of pictorial paper
not even a half-sheet lltho. And the
managerial brow was so deep'.y clothed
In gloom at the prospect that not even
the smiling "Dutch" could muster cour
age to ask a little loan of two bits on
the security of the week's salary already
earned.
At 2 o'clock the usual crowds began
to arrive and as the house rapidly filled
the barometer began to rise. At 2:15
the house was full and Dutch decided
that as soon as the show was over he
would make the "touch."
The pretty scene at Terrebonne planta
tion and the quiet climax of the first
act of "The Octoroon" did not stir the
audience with the usual enthusiasm md
again things looked bad. ' This afternoon
will tell," he heard the manager remark.
"If they like It today business will be
good all week." And the manager was
not .yet sure whether "they" liked it or
not. 1
But after the auction was over and
Zoe, the octoroon, had safely fainted into
the waiting arms of George I^yton the
audience raised Itself up and roared ap
proval and the broadening managerial
Bmilefc indicated to the watchful "Dutch"
that not merely two bits but half a dollar
might be safely negotiated.
One Grin, One Dollar
Then came the scene at the boat land-
Ing where the Indian is acquitted of th<?
murder of tho boy Paul and McCloskty's
guilt is discovered. The ringing address
of the Yankee overseer, Sa'.em Scudder,
found a ready response in the hearts of
the audience and as the gladness of an
assured success dispelled the last vestige
of gloom on the Bakerlun brow "Dutch"
decided that since he must make a touch
it might as well be for a buck.
"The Octoroon" unds happily. Everyone
knows that. The Grand crowd approved
the ending so heartily yesterday after
noon that us the audience passed out
of the lobby the following conversation
might have been overheard:
"Who's got the price of a Dago feed?"
"Aw, come on, fellers — this is on me."
"How much did you get, 'Dutch'?"
"Five-spot."
This is an age of signs and portents
for those who can read them.
Those who go to the Grand this we^k
will find an old favorite well presentud.

BANK CLERKS REHEARSE
FOR BIG MINSTREL SHOW
The approaching minstrel show of the
Bank Clerks' association at the Auditor
ium October 3 Ts so near that Director
George Towle Is calling rehearsals fui
practically every night this week. The
program has now been made up In full,
and the several numbers are well along,
so that a success is assured. More than
100 of the local bank clerks will be in the
big chorus, all In blackface and evtniiig
clothes, while the even dozen end men
will appear in the traditional uniforms ol'
loud color, half of them equipped with
bones and the other six rattling tambor
lnes.
The interlocutor has been warned that
he may expect a choice collection of an
tiquities in the way of jokes— Jokes which
antedate even those of the press humorists
who have just left here, and he promises
some rapid fire answers that will be as
good as he gets. The numbers which re
quire feminine characters are worrying
the boys, for long skirts, big hats and the
other mysteries of women's apparel are
not much In their line, but they promise
to master even the fashionable walk be
fore the curtain rises.
The sketch of "A Bank Clerk's Life." it
is said, will be a scream from start to
finish. The seat sale for reservations, at
which may be exchanged tickets bought
of members, will open at the Auditorium
