BUFFALO BILL'S WILD WEST
SHOW WILL COME TO L.A.
"'rogram of Exhibition Includes a
Realistic Battle Scene
The historical features of Buffalo
Bill's Wild West and Pawnee Bill's
Far East are especially Interesting and
instructive. The exhibition Is an au
thoritative reflection of life in the
western wilds during one of the most
important eras in our country's de
velopment; years when government
forces were subduing the Indians and
opening the prairies to peaceful settle
ment. This season the battle of Summit
Springs is the leading scenic produc
tion with Col. William F. Cody's ex
hibition, and it will picture a battle In
which Buffalo Bill played an important
part. In the original battle Gen. E. A.
Carr led the government troops against
a renegade band of Indians known as
"dog soldiers," under Chief Tall Bull.
During the engagement Buffalo Bill
killed Tall Bull, shooting 1 him from his
horse. This incident will, of cours-. be
depicted in the mimic battle, and there
will be many otherwise Interesting de
tails. An Indian village will be erected
and camp customs of the Indians will
be \phown. The battle scene will be
presented with great realism, and Buf
falo Bill, appearing at every perform
ance, will play his original role. Gen.
Carr, Gen. Hall, Gen. Hayes and other
participants in the original battle are
still living and will be impersonated in
the reproduction of the Summit Springs
fight. Another scenic production which
will form a part of the Wild West ex
hibition is "A Holiday at 'T-E' Ranch. 1
In tho last mentioned scene the ranch
of Col. Cody, near Cody, Wyo., will be
pictured, and during the action there
will be a contrast between a life of
peace and pleasura and that of the
plainsman who was surrounded by
dangers. The rough riders and other
horsemen with trained high school
i will contribute some exhilarat
ing displays of reckless daring, Incident
tn tin program, and at every perform
»nct Buffalo Hill will be In the caddie
directing the entertainment and ap*
pearfng therein, making this his fare

Musical
UCVE'B CAFE CHA3JTANT.
The Levy cafe chantant is a thing
of beauty this week. Broadway, the
Bowery, grand opera and the one-night
stand, together with a little bit off the
top of the circus acts, follow each other
in quick succession. If variety Is the
spice of lifel then the Levy amusement
menu is well seasoned.
Fern Melrose, one of the newcomers,
advertised as the Australian nightin
gale, is the possessor of a double voice.
"Across the Still Lagoon" was a de
lightful descriptive number, "Lolita"
showed the dramatic training, while
"Come With Me to Loveland" proved
to be an exceptionally big number. A
selection from "Madam Cherry," "Ev
ery Little Movement," brought a double
round of applause.
Otto Dobes and Juliette Borell still
continue to amuse. Dobes surprised
the Levy audience in his splendid work,
"Star of My Life," while Miss Borell
found new beauties in Rubinstein's
melody. In contrast, their duets, "Fun
ny Faces" and "Come Along, My Man
dy," demonstrate low comedy ability,
and they close with a fancy coon quick
step.
Jeanette Dupree is another newcomer
with a Broadway air, a roof garden
smile and a vaudeville vojee. Her talk
a-songe are a feature of her work. "The
Soft, Soft Pedal" has been given many
times before, but never as Miss Du
pree gives it. Her selection, "The
Grizzly Bear," is a tribute to the boys
and girls of California. "The Top of the
Mornin'," an Irish song, is the height
of musical comedy.
The Hungarian dancers present three
very strenuous terpsichorean offerings,
a Hungarian Grozien dance, a Russian
quartet and a Hungarian duet, togeth
er with several Russian mountain
songs. Mr. Rabinoff's "If I had a Thou
sand Lives to Live" was most delight
fully done.
The Kammermeyer orchestra still
continues as an attractive feature of
the chantant afternoon and evenings.

of lilies of the valley. After a wedding
Hupper Mr. and Mrs. Jones left for a
short honeymoon trip, after which
they will make their home in Sacra
mento where Mr. Jones is connected
with the Gas and Electric company.
Mrs. T. M. Lynn of West Twenty
ninth street is visiting in the east. She
is planning a trip to Denver, Salt
Lake, Chicago, Kansas City and Now
York before returning.
In honor of their house guests, Mr.
and Mrs. Mohlman, a merry automobile
party was given to Camp Baldy re
cently by Mr. and Mrs. Charles R.
Frey.
Miss Luclle Roberts of Rich street,
who has been visiting for three months
in Boston and New York, has returned.
,
In honor of Miss Biancha Browne,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Browne
of Echo Park avenue, whose marriage
to Walter Streeton will be solemnized
Saturday evening, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
Streeton and Miss Streeton entertained
with a linen shower recently, the house
being decorated with red carnations
and ferns. The game of "A wedding
in Flowertown" was enjoyed, and the

Southern California is noted the

home*. This, ll the real California life,
tin' balmy atmosphere and the sweet
fragrance of the orange blossoms.
Have you such a home If not, why
not? This is tho question, and the
answer is invariably because I find the
cost of foothill acreage so high. Yes,
the beautiful homcsltes- of Altailemt,
Bierra Madre, Monrovia und the old
established districts have gone beyond
the reach of the man of moderate
meani, values advancing from $300 to
$3000 per acre in the past few years.
There is just one genuine foothill

beautiful Monte Vlßta park, the dis

SHOW OF FASHION

cently Imported Gowns
HERALDS AUTUMN'S ARRIVAL
Blackstone's Store in Broadway
Exhibits Pretty Array of
Parisian Creations
The fashion show is. now on. Every
where one sees tlie queen of colon
and the color of queena. The throngs
of beautifully gnwm-d women you meet
nn Broadway this week more than ever
suggest that the bright autumn with
Its gorgeous coloring is upon us. These
women are seen flitting in ano out of
our beautiful stores that have been bo
gorgeously decorated for this fashion
show. When one btanrls and ffasei in
wonderment as to where tlioy all come
from and whore going you are con
vinced that all roada in tho fashion
able world lead to the store of N. B,
Blackstone company, South Broadway.
I followed the crowd to see what was
doing on the second floor. There you
find a scattering mass of people feast
ing upon the exquisite wraps and
gowns worn and displayed by a living
model. On all sides you hear the wo
men exclaiming: "Isn't that a mag
nificent pink gown for a ball," or
"Dainty blue chiffon for dinner."
"Just see that ruyal purple wrap.
Isn't it all bewildering? Every color
of the rainbow seems to be here'
Some of the smartest outfits are seen
at Blackstone's. One can't help but
notice that gold lace is to play an im
portant part in all dress accessories.
Many of the approved new models,
both in gowns and hats, require con
siderable courage on the part of the
wearer to make her first public ap
pearance. The sylph-like figure is the
one that is strictly in It for the "hob
ble" this season. On this same floor
we find the stunning hats—those im
ported ones—Georgette, Jeanne Lan
van, Marie Louise. Camllle Roger and
others. The ostrich trimming figures
in all hats. The gwns are from such
makers as Paul Foiret. Calot, Bear
and other equally famous builders of
Parisian gowns. You cannot leave
this floor without paying some atten
tion to the furs. 1 find that the pop
ular furs will be sable, raccoon< mink,
ermine and skunk.
Somehow we seemed to leave the
best for the last. That is the artistic
display in the windows. Here we like
to linger and linger and feast our eyes
upon one of the best displays on
Broadway. In the north window you
are attracted by a gold lace French
gown, fashioned by Jeanne Halle. You
begin to speculate as to the probable
cost of such a magnificent gown.
When you are told you kind of hold
your breath and say, "What! Only
$400!" As a combination to all this
elegantly, orientally trimmed gown
you see a Loulson hat. The entire
window dressing is confined to the
gold shade.
The south window is the one that
holds your attention. The shades of
blue are here represented. I really
think there have been more compli-

Adelina Patti is said to have once remarked to a friend
that she was satisfied to know in her heart that she
could sing high C, though she had never made the attempt.
In much the same way, sometimes when such mas
terful events occur as the present splendid show of fash
ions, it has seemed that if we could put into words the
full, powerful force of the display before you, all feminine
Los Angeles would be here when the doors of the store
open each morning.
But if you will stop to think a minute, you will recall
the fact that this store never has, so to speak, tried to giDg
high C—every value has been a little bit better even than
you expected, and a great deal better than any annoMnce
» ment gave you the right to expect. These things you know
to be true; and we have not deviated from this policy.
So, instead of the adjectives that might be employed
in regard to this three days' exhibit, we shall rely simply
upon the evidence of your own sight and lips for corrobor
ration of our assertion of the truly unusual character of the
various display s with which every section of the store is full.
We ask you to consider this a very personal and cordial invitation to make
use of the store—of its rest rooms, its telephones, its writing desks, its cafe
and men's grill—in short, of every convenience which thirty-two years of
continuous serving of a discriminating public has enabled us to bring to per
fection and to place at your disposal. WELCOME!
