THEATRES ON THE. COAST.
I have just returned from a tour of
the coast, extending fiom shot-lo-ploces
'Frisco to watch-me-grow Los
Angeles. While primarily seeking the
elusive thing called rest, I incidental
ly hovered around the Ilarlng foot
lights of several coast towns. After
one makes his escape from the ennui
of Sacramento theatilcally as dead as
slavery ono comes Into the breezy
ozone of Oakland. This ono time
town of rural homes and truck gar
dens has suddenly togged itself In
metropolitan ruffles. Broadway, In
Oakland, has caught some of the de
parted glory of Market street.
O'Farrell street, too, where the in
candescents once bloomed In orange
colored splendor throughout the night,
has a small counterpart In the heart
of Oakland. There are high priced
theatres and the ton-cent dissipation
touching elbows In Impudent rivalry.
But the summer glory of Oakland Is
Idora park a dreamland of lawn,
(lowers and footlights. No matter
how warm the day and Oakland lb
hot, at times ono can go to Idora
park In the evening and the cool
breeze of the Pacific will kiss him
back to life and joy. At tho same time
you can All your ears with operatic
music, and slip away from dullness
over a footllght Hood of surf-color
through which chorus girls are swim
ming In a sea of rainbows. No mat
ter how proudly Oakland may raise
her head her theatric head In all
tho days and nights to come Idora
park will bo a pleasant memory. Ono
comes over to 'Frisco from Oakland
across what Is now as it ever was
the grandest stretch of water nature
over gave to commerce. Cities may
crash and crumble around tho shores
of San Francisco bay, but forever and
forever may Its waters carry tho ships
of two worids through the Golden
Gate. One slops from tho ferry boat
of Market street and Immediately
feHs that ho io in a cloud of nicer
tabny and gloom.
A ride up Market street is like a trip
through a graveyard hero He burled
tho glories and grandeur of tho San
Francisco that was. Tho Call build
ing, the Grand and Palace hotels, the
Phelan building stand out amidst the
black surroundings like broken monu
ments struggling to be brave. Over on
Mission street tho Grand opera house
is a wilderness of twisted Iron and
crumbled brick. Just a few hours be
fore the earthquake, tho golden volco
of Caruso excited to frenzy tho most
brilliant audlonco ever assembled at
this historic play house.
Over on O'Farrell street tho Or
plieum, Fisher's, Tlvoll and Oboron
are lost in debris as dead to tho past
as death Itself. Tho Alcazar anil the
Columbia tho pride of Powell street
where tragic actors and tragic ac
tresses played tho make believe trag
edy of life are now as deep a trag
edy as death can weavo from tho
threads of dust and silence. Tho Rial
to Is dead, long livo tho Rialto! Way
up town for up town that was tho
Rialto lives again in all tho quicken
ing pulse of duzzllng footlights and In
candescent fairy entrances. Tho
Davis threatre on McAllister street,
not far from Fillmore, is doing its best
to win back tho vocal glory that mado
tho old Tlvoll a nest of song birds.
But It is only a sicken ig imitation.
Its singers seem to have tho earth
quake still in their voices and its
chorus girls are not tho shapely girls
that mado the Tlvoll chorus an empo
ium of well rounded hosiery. And,
by tho way, speaking of tho old Tlv
oll, It was tho house of song that mado
Frisco famous.
Today tho Tivoll Opera company Is
up on Puget Sound trying to make a
rae nolsu in the ears of Seattle.
Clustering mound Franklin stieet and
Van Ness avenue and the streets
between are a score of cheap show
houses.
Residences, regardless of previous
condition or servitude, have been
rudely seized and forced into melo
dramatic bondage or ten-twenty-and-thirty-cent
vaudeville slavery. These
improvised places of amusement aro
the meanest kind of theatric excuses.
They exist only lor the matinee today
and tho performance tonight tomor
row may see tho Phoenix boar and a
now San Francisco spread Its wings.
Let us never brush tho dust of sup
plication from our knees until It Is so.
Between 'Frisco and Los Angeles
ono has a cholco of two routes, and,
at tho gatoway to each, stands a good
show town. These towns Stockton
and San Jose although much smaller
than Sacramento, aro theatrically far
In advance of tho sleepy California
capital. In Stockton there are several
live theatres and In San Joso it is tho
same. Farther south, Fresno and Ba
kersfleld aro tho humming centers
of tho oil fields fierce melodrama and
fig-leaf girls in dizzy burlesquo aro
tho only attractions that choke tho
box ofllco. Santa Barbara still redo
lent with tho ppirit of ltamnmi and
Helen Hunt Jackson is a fashionable
town of twenty thousand. Because
John Drew and Murray and Mack
slmetimes drop off at Santa Barbara,
tho town Insists on calling itself a
theatric center.
When ono gets llrnily planted In Los
Angeles, after riding through a wil
derness of suburbs, ho loves to tarry
and hear tho wings of angels rustling
over tho real estate. Real estato and
climate have conspired to luro tho In
valid from tho eaBt and tho boomer
from Boomtown. Either ono alone
might bo resisted, together they are
Invincible. Without them Los Angeles
might still bo a struggling town on
tho Mexican border. With them she
still growing like thunder and
Wearing tho mantel of glory which the
earthquako stripped from San Fran
cisco. Wonderful Los Angeles! Queen
not of Southern California, but of all
California north and south. No city
of equal size is so multltudlous with
hotels, boarding houses and furnished
rooms.
Theatrically Los Angeles Is Now
York squeezed into Harlem and tho
Bronx. They told mo that Los An
geles has fourteen theatres. Two new
ones opened while I was there and
I wasn't thero long. Just as' I was
pulling out of town a five cent theatre
opened on Main street, between Third
and Fourth. In consternation I fled
tho city, fearing a penny vaudovlllo
might open and glvo away expensive
souvenirs.
Los Angeles grows so fast, that ,In
tho dead of night, ono awakes from
slumber nnd hears first one suburb II
and then another becoming absorbed II
In tho ever expanding municipality. II
While I was there the suggestion was '11
mado In all seriousness, mind you II
to annex San Pedro and Long Bench. l
They nre, at present, thriving towiu II
twenty miles away! Next year they II
will bo lost In tho heart of Greater Los ' II
Angeles. What think you, my mas- 1 fl
tors? Isn't that "going" some? II
When tho earthquako drovo Fisher l
from O'Farrell street tho quick wltted I
Gorman hied away to Los Angeles. u'l
Fisher's theatro on First street Is now fl
ono of tho busy places in tho town of . LI
fluttering Angoles. At tho Mason op- Hi
era house, whoro Weber and Fields jl
burlesquo Is tho present rage, Rose. I
mary Glosz vocally known to ZIon l
Is the star of tho organization. Just I
as I loft, however, it was announced jl
that sho was going to tho Davis then. J I
tro in 'Frisco. In tho Fisher theatro j;l
I recognized some Salt Lako girls who ill
added shapely and vocal dignity to the Jl
Fisher chorus Salt Lako girls can do jl
this every time. il
All the Los Angeles theatres aro jl
box ofllco winners. II
Go to tho Belasco and tho crowds aro ijl
there; tho same at tho Ilotchklss; the jl
samo at tho Burbank; tho same at the fl
Now Star; tho same at tho Orphcum; I
tho same at tho Unique tho samo all I
down the line. Los Angeles has grab I
