Music
Levy's cafe chantant shows the best
program given for weeks. The Cos
mopolitan trio continues as headliner.
A clever rendition of the trio from
Carmi was a distinct hit last evening.
Signor Porclnl, the baritone, sang the
prologue from "Uagllaccl" and Mme.
Ferrari gave as her offering tho Creole
Love Song, the tenor number being an
excellent rendition of "Pallide Mannua
loe." Miss Dorrls Wilson, singing com
medienne, comes from New York with
new songs artistically dpne and new
gowns, most satisfactorily worn. Her
selections were "The Swallows," 'For
All Eternity" and "Yesterday."
Sharp and Turek, blackface comed
ians, furnish the comedy element;
Miss Sharp's selection with dance,
"I've Got Your Number," is above tho
usual vaudeville stunt. "Lasses Candy
Chile" is a passable duet, and the
dance eccentric proved a terpsichorean
novelty.
Ethel Leslie, the prlma donna so
prano of the Levy aggregation, sang 1
"My Dreams' 1 and "The Carnival."
The Shrine auditorium auto show has
something worth while in the musical
line. The Ohlmeyer Carnival bund
has soloists, who would do credit to
a symphony orchestra. Mme. Stan
tonne and he* Venetian Ladies' or
chestra adds tone to the general en
semble.
Clubs
Christmas spirit was evidenced yes
terday afternoon at Ebell club when
Miss Mary Carter, recently from Lelps
sic, sang the Christmas Song cycle by
Peter Cornelius. Miss Carter's voice,
which is sweet and well placed, de
lighted her auditors who demanded en
cores which she graciously granted,
singing among other things Mrs.
Beach's popular song "The Year's at
the Spring." Mrs. Abble Norton Jami
son was at the piano during this por
tion of the program.
Ernest E. Pither, baritone, concluded
the program. This singer displayed
vocal powers or great charm in the
prologue from "Pagliacchi," "Mother
Mine;" "If I Were Blind," Sutley;
"Kathleen Mavoureen" and "Tipperary
Town," the later an encore number.
Mrs. Gertrude Ross accompanied these
numbers, and the program was ehjoy
able throughout.
MILLION EASTERNERS VIEW
EXHIBITS OF CALIFORNIA
Charles L. Wilson, superintendent of
exhibits for the Los Angeles chamber
of commerce, returned yesterday after
an extended trip throughout the east,
and says that more than a million per
sons visited the Los Angeles and San
Diego exhibits in the groat agricultural
expositions of the east in the summer
and fall.
"The exhibits at Chicago, Pittsburg,
Cincinnati and Richmond, Ind., attract
ed a great deal of attention," said Mr.
Wilson yesterday. "More than half a
million persons heard our lectures on
Southern California and many of them
expressed a desire to come to this part
of the country. It was somewhat of a
hardship for our Southern Californians
to endure the cold of the east, but we
believe that untold good has been ac
complished and made up for the In
convenience which we experienced."
MEXICANS OBSERVE FEAST
The feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe,
the patroness of Mexico, was celebrat
ed with solemnity yesterday, carrying
out all the old time customs at the
Plaza church. At 9:30 o'clock a pro

grounds whlc'a wended its way to the

LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 13, 1910.
"SIGN OF THE ROSE"
A DELIGHTFUL SKETCH
George Beban at the Orpheum
Introduces Character New
to the Stage
In' "The Sign of the Rose," George
Beban's one-act play, which he is
presenting this week as the principal
feature of the Orpheum bill, Mr. Beban
has done for the Italian immigrant
Just the service performed some* years
ago by David Warfleld for the Jew.
In "The Auctioneer," a piece writtten
for Mr. Warfleld by Lee Arthur, whose
home now Is In Los. Angeles, that actor
shawed us the loyalty and lovable
side of a character which before then
had been utilized on the American
stage only to be ridiculed. In "The
Sign of the Hose" Mr. Beban redeems
the "dr.go" from stage caricature.
With a fidelity which can not attain
Its full measure of appreciation here
in Southern California, where tlie
Italian laborer is little known, he
realizes a national type familiar
enough in New York and the east, but
foreign to this locality, and which
curiously has escaped heretofore stage
exploitation.
It Is announced that Edwin Milton
Royle hns been commissioned to ex
pand this miniature drama into a
throe-act play and that Mr. Beban will
star in it next se:i:;on. If this is done
success should follow, for the story,
even in its present tabloid form, Is
of compelling humanity and abundant
sympathy, and Mr. Beban's acting in
itn central role is a triumph.
The action of "The Sign of the Rose"
occurs in one of Thorley's flower shops
in Now York city. The child of a mil
lionaire has been kidnnped, sup
posedly by members of the "Black
Hand," and letters have been received
demanding a $10,000 ransom to be
paid at Thorley's to an agent who will
be identified by "the sign of the rose."
Here, then, come the parents of the
missing child and here is stationed a
central office detective to arrest the
blackmailer.
On the preceding day the millionaire,
recklessly driving his automobile,
through the crowded streets, has
struck and seriously injured a little
girl. The child dies, though he does
not know it. All this is explained
tersely but completely, and it leads
up to the entrance of Mr. Beban, whom
the audience at once recognizes as
the father of the dead child, knowing
at the same time that he will be mis
taken for the Black Hand emissary.
Of course this is merely the A B C of
good playwrighting, but it Is done so
simply and so naturally that the skill
of the author's technique all but es
capes observation. The audience has
been taken itno the playwright's con
fidence while his characters are still
groping blindly through a maze of
misunderstanding.
The Italian has come to the flower
shop to buy a rose for the little pine
casket of his dead baby. The confu
sion of identities occurs. Ho is offered
the $10,000, and, racially slow of wit,
bewildered by his strange reception,
declines the money and tells patheti
cally and simply the story of his mis
fortune. In the end the missing child
Is recovered and the tangle of mis
taken identity explained.
In its relation this little story sounds
bald enough, but as it Is presented by
Mr. Beban and his company on the
Orpheum stage It is a veritable gem,
provided with an excellent setting, Its
every facet exhibiting the polished
acting of Its author-actor, who. out of
a multiplicity of little human touches,
has evolved a character new to the
stage and one for which the stage
should prove grateful.
Elsewhere the current bill offers
Mme. Jewell and her manikins in a
marionette play entitled "Toyland
Vaudeville;" Alf Grant and Ethel Hoag
in a "chatter" act; the Asahi troupe of
Japanese magicians and acrobats; the
Imperial Russian dancers; Camille
Ober, Felice Morris and her company
In "A Call for Help," and the three
White Kuhns.
• • •
"Old Heidelberg" was revived at the
Bclasco last night, the performance
makinsr the twenty-second week of the
play at this theater, its presentation
having extended over a period of sev
eral years. Lewis S. Stone again de
lighted a large audience with his im
personation of Prince Karl Heinrich,
Eleanor- Gordon was the Kathie and
James K. Applebee the Doctor Juttner.
Several of the roles were assumed by
players who have been seen at the
Belasco in the same parts in previous
productions. A more extended review
of the performance will appear in this
column tomorrow.

Reviews of the new bills at the Los
Angeles and Pantages vaudeville
houses and of the current offerings at
the Olympic and Princess theaters will
be published tomorrow.

LIQUOR DEALER MEETS
SEVERE PUNISHMENT
License of Conrad Winters Re
voked for Permitting Mi
nors in Saloon
Severe punishment was Inflicted by
the police commission last night on
Conrad Winters, when his permit to
conduct a saloon at Thirtieth street
and Central avenue was revoked be
cause four young men under 21 years
were In his place- on two occasions for
from throe to ten minutes at a time.
An Incident of the case was that
Judg-o I_>. K. Trask, a former member
of the police commission, appeared M
attorney for Winters, and one of the
first things Judge Trask did was to
make the star witness for the prosecu
tion Exhibit A for the defense. This
witness was Warren Sisson, who said
he was only 18 years old, but Is six
feet and, one Inch tall.
Judge Trask asked the commission
ers to look at the witness and see If
they would not consider that*ho was
more than 21 years old. Sisson and
four other young men, all about 18
years old and all members of the
Haven Methodist church, testified that
they had obtained beer and whisky in
Winters" saloon on two occasions. But
Winters was not tried for selling liquor
to minors, as there Is no city ordinance
prohibiting such sale. The ordinance <
makes it a misdemeanor to permit a (
minor to enter and remain in a saloon
and this wßj the»charge against the
saloon keeper.
While the evidence was conclusive
that the boys were in the place it \\iis
the first time a case of the kind had
been tried by the commission and it
was expected that a suspension of
license for 30 or 60 days would be the
punishment. Commissioner Wellborn |
would not vote for the revocation of i
the license. Commissioner Davidson
was not present.
Winters has conducted his saloon at
the tame location for twenty years
and last night was the first time he
had "been on the carpet." His was the
last saloon outside the liquor zone
and no permit over can be granted
again for his place of business.
MRS. SOWL SUES RAILWAY
FOR CASA VERDUGO NAME
Asking $10,000 damages and the ex
clusive use of the words, "Casa V*f
dugo," Mrs. Piedad Yorba Sowl yes
terday filed in the superior court a
suit against the Pacific Electric Rail
way company.
Mrs. Sowl and her husband, Charles
Sowl, under the direction of the rail
way, conducted the cafe known as
''Casa Verdugo" for five years. A
dispute arose and the establishment
was left to the railway, which had it
leased. The Sowls sought a new place
nearby for the opening of another
establishment of a similar nature, and
formed two companies, known as
"Casa Verdugo" and "Casa Verdugo,
Inc.," for which articles of incorpora
tion were filed, the evident intention
being to obtain the use of the familiar
name of the cafe.
For awhile, it is alleged, the rail
way company resorted to every means
to make the public believe that "Casa
Verdugo" was closed for repairs, even
using newspaper columns, it is
averred, to give that Impression. Then,
November 24, with J. R. Brabo, former
ly of Santa Barbara, as manager, it
reopened the old place under the name
of "Casa Verdugo."
Now Mrs. Sowl wants $10,000 as
damages and an injunction Issued, pre
venting the railway from using the
name "Casa Verdugo" on any sign or
in connection with a restaurant. It
also is alleged that the railway is not
authorized by its articles of incorpora
tion to conduct a restaurant.

bers of the Improvement company
