GIRLS FLEE US POLLY SWEARS LIVELY TIME WHEN PARROT BREAKS LOOSE Quiet Bird, Which None Thought Could Talk, Cusses Like a Pirate When Irritated, and Chorus Is Panic-stricken Never think that a poll parrot cannot talk, because it prefers to preserve Its silence In lonely dignity. That's the mistake the chorus girls at the Audi torium made. They know better now. In "The Serenade," which the Cali fornians are singing now, a parrot is a feature. When the Bostonians did this opera they had a dummy bird, worked with a string. But the Californians, going in for realism, secured a live green poll parrot, and its screeches nightly at inopportune moments have added much to the hilarity of the occasion. But no one ever thought that the bird could talk. The opinion of Poll's speaking abilities changed very suddenly last night, and Harry Cashman was innocently to blame for It. Harry has moved his domicile lately, and his tiny woolly dog, Keni, has been marooned in Pasadena for a week. Last night Mrs. Cashman brought the pup back and look Keno on thu stage to wait till the opera was over. Among the accessories to the opera, by the way, is a small pig which Cashman carries in a shawl strap and which has a voice as raucous as an auctioneer. The porcine thespian is kept in a slatted crate during his periods of quiescence. Keno had been on the stage not ton minutes till he discovered the shoat. Th'> pig discovered Keno at the same time, and off In a corner back of the scenes, a lively duet not on the bills was quickly In progress. The chorus was off stage, too, and the girls of the "merry, merry" gathered to watch the fun. Then Poll woke up. His nearby rest had been disturbed. He didn't like it. And he said so. "Oh, go to hell!" was the loud, rasp ing remark that startled <he girls. They looked In wonder; for the Auditorium, having more or less of a religious as pect, profanity Is taboo. Again came the voice: "Aw, go to hell! Shut up, damn you!" There were looks and eyebrows lifted, but no stage hand or masculine singer was near. Then, amid a painful silence of a second or two, again came the sharp admonition: "Shut up, you damn fool. Go to hell!" And then a torrent of profanity which the veriest Portuguese sailor might envy, and of which the postal laws utterly prevent reproduction. The girls were shocked. They were also startled. They looked from one to an other, and panic was plainly depicted in their faces. "What is It?" murmured Myrtle Ding wall, the tiniest of them all. "Spooks." said Anna Nolan, grabbing for the skirts that were not there— lt was the last act and they were in trousers. "Spooks." Then she turned and fled. After her went the whole lot, tumbling downstairs at breakneck speed. Ed Temple, the stage manager, saw the rush and thought It was caused by a mouse. , "Come back,' girls; mice can't hurt you in those clotheß," he called. -: '. I But the girls showed no disposition to return; they were thoroughly frightened. Temple Investigated - and discovered I the torrent iof profane expletives . and . Bil lingsgate. ~. He quickly saw a remedy. A dark cloth over Poll's ' cage silenced , him, and a hearty laugh - explained the sit uation. The chorus was a bit lato for the finale, but < that •is all the . outside public ever learned of it. ,■■ .-■■ ,■■-', t / But hereafter, Temple swears, '- that parrot will < wear a r muzzle, i and ; Harry Cashman's Kcno has been forbidden the stage: door. . ~■ ; \ r \v^K^ LOS ANGELES HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 28, 1907. REBUTTAL DENIES CHILDREN'S CLAIM DESCENDANTS PRODUCT OF FORMER MARRIAGE Names Changed When Haddock Mar ried First Wife Is Gist of Evf. dence in Spook Will Case In the Haddock spook will contest yes terday Mrs. Mary M. Hammond testi fied for the defense that she had known the aged capitalist's first wife Sadie con tinuously for nineteen years. Mrs. Tlammond said that Mrs. Haddock had told her Frank Haddock and Mrs. Bam Haddock Whlttsot, the plaintiffs in the present Mtlßntion, were not the grandchildren of Chnrles G. Hnddock, for tholr father. Frank Haddock, was a child by a former marriage. Mrs. Snflln Haddock also told the wit ness that after becoming divorced from her former husband, Daniel Delamater, she had bpen engaged to a Mr. Simmons in Chicago nnd that if he had lived she would novrr have been married to Charles O. Hnddock. After the cross-oxnminatlon of Mrs. Hammond divorce records from Detroit, Mich., were offered In evidence to show that Daniel and Sadie Delamater were divorced there In September. 1863, and that Mrs. Dplamnter was given the cus tody of the two children. To the Introduction of the records counsel for the plaintiff made strenuous objection, but were overruled, as was their objection to the reading of. a depo sition by Charles A. King of Bay City, Mich., a brother of Mrs. Sadie Haddock. In King's deposition the story of Mrs. Haddock's former mnrriage to Dnnlel Delamnter was retold, the deponent swearing that he had been acquainted with Sfulic nil his life until she was mar ried to Delnmater nnd left her father's home In Detroit to live with her husband nt Stratford, Canada. There were three children born to the Dp.lnmaters, two of which survived when their parents were divorced. Thp children's names were Rebecca and Edward, and nfter Mrs. Delamater's mar rlnee to Charles G. Haddock they were called Kitty nnd Frank E. Haddock. Kitty "Haddock" died at nn early agp, but Frank Orew to manhood and was the father of the plaintiffs In this suit. The deponent could not remember the dates of Mrs. Haddock's first marringe nor when she became the wife of Charles G. Haddock. Mrs. Mary E. Hoyt was called to cor roborate the evidence of the deposition, she having been a lifelong neighbor of the Haddocks in Chicago. CONDEMN LAND FOR NEW. BRIDGE Great Steel Highway Will Soon Be Reared Across Los Angeles River to Downey and Pasadena Avenues The council last night, after years of delay, finally authorized the condemna tion suits for a right of way for the Buena Vista bridge. This is the final step toward paving the way for this, great bridge and was a surprise to First Ward Councilman Drom gold himself— so he told Councilman Healy at the session last night. City Attorney Hewitt's recommendation, which was acted on, was: "In accordance with your Instructions I present herewith ordinance providing for the condemnation of lands necessary to be taken for the proposed Buena Vista bridge across the Los Angeles river from Buena Vista street to Downey avenue and Pasadena avenue. Said ordinance also provides for the condemnation of certain lands contiguous thereto for playground and street purposes. I recom mend the adoption of the ordinance."
