Inroads ( were mad on the arrangement for all morning. HIGH CLASS ' J Angela May, Comedian MacEvoy and Cartoonist Kippy win ba seen at the Pastime theater but twice more. "Just My Style," from "Fantuna," and "The Rosary," respectively, tonight and tomorrow night, will be the big musical hits In which the contralto will be heard the , two remaining nights. The house 'has been packed all week and It Is safe to say that nothing of better class has been seen In La Grande vaudeville. The crowds that have flocked to the theater speak in lauding terms of the entire pro gram of which Angela May Is the star, but closely seconded by the other two. The new pictures are also excellent tonight, as testified to by those who saw the matinee this afternoon. On Sunday evening she will wear her 1500 Irish point lace gown, a feat ure which will appeal to the ladies es pecially. Sunday School Convention. The Union County Sunday School association will hold a convention at Island City March 24 and 25. All Sun day school workers are requested to attend this convention. A good time anticipated. W. H.

It Shakespeare were a poet of less dignity and genius, the present enthusiasm would undoubted ly be described as "a Shakespeare fad." But the difficulty of securing players competent to give Intelligent and convincing Interpretations of his Immortal characters,' prevents such a vandalism. Good performances of Shakespeare are too rare to become commonplace. The public Is quick to detect spurious pretensions to recog nition in the Shakespearean drama, and the result Is that many efforts are dismissed with slight consideration as mere dllletante experiments. Mr. Charles B. Hanford Is one of the few players of today whose aspirations in this direction have crystallized into permanent achievement. The public of this city will have an opportunity to see Mr. Hanford at Steward's opera house Monday, March 22. Mayor Harper lrohe starts. Los Angeles, March 19.
