Impressive Scenes in Great Production of

Beauty and Religious Atmosphere of

ing to Few Witnessing Re.
hearsals of Company
The masslveness of the presentation,
the solemnity and grandeur of the great
American Passion play as rehearsed in
this city during the past week, has
i brought to notable* witnesses the con
viction that the presentation at the
Auditorium next week will equal in
beauty and religious atmosphere tho
original production at Oberammergau.
Among these are a number who saw
the tragedy portrayed ln tho old coun
try. y^y'X'XX.ZX
The limited audiences which night
alter night have been privileged to
watch the unfolding of this drama have
commented fervently upon the deeply
religious bearing of the scenes and the
inspiration of the revealed story of the
life which has been the guiding influ
ence of mankind since the birth 01
the Savior.
** The prophecies bearing upon Christ s
coming and his life upon earth are
beautifully exemplified in the tableaux
conceived in a wonderfully artistic
spirit and represented In connection
with tho successive scenes of the Pas
sion play.
"We consider the Passion play as sa
cred as prayer," said Rev. Josaphat
Kraus, the author, in a recent Inter
view. "I have copyrighted It at Wash
ington, so that it cannot bo profaned
by being acted without permission o£
the Franciscan Fathers, It is also be
cause, of the sacred nature or the sub
ject that we exercise the greatest care
in choosing members for the cast. We
seek piety in the participants."
It la a spiritual drama throughout.
When presented for the first time in
Ban Francisco the great audiences sat
throughout the long hours of presen
tation, awed and in most worshipful
spirit. No sound of applause was
heard during the production there, and
each spectator -vs he left the audito
rium betrayed In his countenance the
revelation of the great religious lesson
learned, according to writers of that
city. , Ml
Tho presentation in Los Angeles will
lie the same as that which took place
In San Francisco. All of.the original,
stupendous stage effects and scenery
'by famous urtlsts will be used. Tlie
full cast of 900 participants will ap
pear, while the music which augments
tills sumptuous spectacle will be In
keeping with tho twenty-one Impelling
- ■acred scenes. ."•'•■'-
There will be but two performances.
Each will run three nights, beginning
Monday, March 14. In order to care
tor the seat demand the management
has decided to open the sale of season
peats tomorrow morning. If tho reser
vation remains those who desire single
seats will be able to secure them at
the Auditorium beginning Thursday,
March 10. However, there are Indi
cations that the great house will be
sold out before that date, and the line
at the Auditorium boa office tomor
row morning is expected to be a long
" The preparation for this tremendous
spectacle, under the auspices of the
Franciscan Fathers, has called for very
heavy expenses in order to assure prop
■ er presenttalon. The result will be the
most pretentious production ever ap
pearing upon a western stage. If the
t success of the spectacle is such that
Ada remain after the bills are paid
they will be used to promote the mis

SHOOTS WIFE AT
GRAVE OF BABE
RANCHER'S MIND IS SUDDENLY
UNBALANCED
Gun Wlelder Is Arrested and Held
Until Investigation as to His
Sanity Can Be
Mads
His mind unbalanced fit the sight of
the small tombstone over the grave of
his baby, Thomas Thomagos, a rancher
living near Gardenia, drew a revolver
from his pocket at Evergreen cemetery
yesterday morning and fired five shots
at his wife, who was holding their 6
months-old child. One of the bullets
struck the woman In the left leg, in
flicting a flesh wound.
Thomagos lived In Los Angeles until
recently, when he moved to his ranch
at Gardenia. Ho owns real estate In
Boyle Heights. Yesterday he decided
to inspect his property, and while near
Evergreen cemetery decided to visit
the grave of Ills first baby. With hia
wife carrying a 6-months-old baby,
Thomagos, taking care of the 2-year
old child, entered the place.
As they approached the grave of the
baby, which Thomagos declares died
as the result of Insufficient nourish
ment, he suddenly became hysterical,
dropped the child which he was carry
ing in his arms, drew a revolver and
began shooting at his wife. After
empptylng the weapon and realizing
that. he had struck the woman, Thom
agos threw the pistol aside and ran to
ward the bouse of Superintendent Con
rad Ohnemuller and fell in the grass.
The reports of the shots attracted the
attention of Ohnemuller, who was In
another part of the cemetery, and when
lie found that Mrs. Thomagos had been
shot he hurried to the house to tele
phone for the police ambulance. ,
On his way to the house he dli
covered Thomagos lying in the grass
near the walk muttering incoherently.
Ohnemuller took the man into custody
and held him until Patrolmen Ferns
ami Wehrly of the east side station
appeared and placed him under arrest.
In the meantime Mrs. Thomagos and
her two children were taken to the re
ceiving hospital in an automobile. She
was examined by the police surgeons,
who found that the bullet had passed
through the fleshy part of her left leg,
inflicting a superficial wound. •
Mrs. Thomagos is resting easily in
the matron's department of the receiv
ing hospital and soon will be able to be
out, and her husband occupies a cell
in the city jail and probably will he
charged with attempt to commit mur
der, unless It Is found that he ls

PHENOMENA!, DEVELOPMENT OF A
WHEAT BUSINESS
The corner drug store, as such, will j
soon be known only in history. The
dispensary of the day le in the hands
of drug companies, owning a multi
plicity of stores In all sections of the
country; carrying a line of goods that
tlie ordinary drug store would never
think of placing upon their shelves;
specializing along lines unknown to
tho pharmacists of a few years ago,
who served only a limited number of
people from a limited stock.
One Of the truly "•■cat, especially on
the Pacific coast, Is the owl Drug
company. The name of this firm has
become a household word in Los An
geles and San Francisco, and other
coast Cities, and one can always be
assured of securing anything to be
found in a down-to-the-minute drug
store. By reason of possessing unlim
ited capital, the large drug house are
enabled to go into the' open market
and buy for cash largo quantities of all
kinds of goods at a discount, and are
enabled to place the same on sale at
a price a little lower than the lowest
and yet at the same time giving them
a margin of profit.
. This has been the policy of tho Owl
Drug company, and its great success
has been due solely to the fact that it
has supplied Its patrons with tin best
at a living price.
The manner In which Its goods are
sold over the counter Is truly a revela
tion. Every phase of the business lias
been systematized to the point that
every article in stock can be accounted
for at a moment's notice, and every
prescription taken, notwithstanding
thousands are filled every day, can be
duplicated from the fibs of the com
pany at almost a moment's notice.
It is such management as this that
will bring success to any enterprise,
no matter what its field may be; and
as th" borders of the city are extended,
the chain of Owl drug stores will be
materially increased.

FREDERICKS TO

COUNTY PROSECUTOR URGES
DEPUTIES TC HURRY
District Attorney Orders Assistants to
Oppose Requests for Continue

Abrams Trial Cited ■„
Stung by the criticism that has been
directed toward the district attorney's
office on account of the laxity with
Which criminal cases have been pushed
to trial and fearful of the effect this
criticism will have In the approaching
county campaign, so far as the office of
head prosecuting officer is concerned.
District Attorney Fredericks has noti
fied his deputies to object strongly and
to demand the very best of reasons
when attorneys representing accused
persons request continuance of their
■ '.<:yym
cases. ■
Tbii first announcement that post
ponements in arraignments, pleas and
trials would be contested, probably
pending the election, was made by
Deputy District Attorney North in
Judge Davis' court yesterday when At
torney De Compte Davis requested a
continuance until next Thursday for
the appearance of George A. Stone and
his Wife to plead to a charge of murder.
Th.. deputy district attorney frankly
admitted that th* district attorney had
been the object of a great deal of
criticism for the manner in which
criminal easel have been permitted to
be advanced on the court calendars
from week to week and month to
month.
The criticism, he said, has grown
stronger since the trial of M. C.
Abrams, who was acquitted several
days ago after trial on a charge of
manslaughter for the killing of Isaac
L. Lowman in July, 1909. The death
..I Lowman occurred nine months ago,
and after Abrams was held to answer
the trial was continued from time to
time. Attorney Davis stating ills ser
vices were required In the United
Slates court in another criminal mat
ter,
"The office has been censured for
allowing this case and others to stand
so long without coming to trial," said
the deputy. "I am Instructed to op
pose delays unless the grounds on
which they are requested are the very
best and a postponement is absolutely
necessary." '
