It has been hailed wherever played as the biggest laughing hit of the age. The scenes are laid in the fashionable Measuring establishment of Tito Lombardi, in New York City, and the sumptuous stage settings are a sight that every woman will want to see—silks, satins, brocades, gowns and negliges, and the gowns and cloaks worn by the lady members of the cast are all of the latest and most dazzling design. Mr. Royal will portray the part of Tito Lombardi, the role Leo Carrillo made such a wonderful success in. Miss Edith Elliott has been cast as Norah Blake, Lombardi's assistant, and Rodney Hildebrand in the role of Ricardo Tosello, the vermicello king. They, with the other members of the capable cast, make up an ensemble that you would have to go far to beat.

It was nip and tuck from beginning to the last few minutes. The victors were only two points in the lead when the end was drawline near. The oil drillers got off on the right foot and tossed three baskets in less than that many minutes. The Anaheim boys worked hard and are doing better at each game. Coach Fitzmorris has done wonderfully well with his team as he had an entire new quintet. The following started: Lusk and Wells, forward; Walker, center; Beebe and Dahlman, guards; Suits; Bastian for Lusk and Beatle for Beebe. The midgets, or 30-pound team, won a slow game 5 to 4.

On his neck a big patch of skin had been wrenched off by the clawing fingers who had sought to strangle him. Over his body were contusions and great bruises, some blue and some others, presumably freshly inflicted, red and sore. The body of the little girl and her head was a mass of welts. When hospital attendants approached him to tell him the photographer had come to take his picture, he jumped up from his chair in the long cement aisle and said: DOHENY OFFERS TO RETURN CALIFORNIA OIL LEASES (Continued from Page One) Rosevelt said the matter was discussed in a conference in Wahiberg’s office last night. “When did you first think of resigning from Sinclair’s employ?” asked Senator Smoot. “Oh, before this, I always wanted to. I thought I could better myself.” “The conversation between Wahiberg and me was rambling.” Rosevelt replied to a question by Smoot. “I asked him why Sinclair went to Europe. He said he that on account of evidence that Senator Walsh collected at Palm Beach. He advised me to resign. When we talked about his situation he said he was unhappy and worried. He believed that he would be called upon to explain certain things.” “Where were you when you were talking to him?” “In his office, looking out of the window over the city.” “Did you see any checks?” “No.” WASHINGTON Jan. 26.—Representative Garrett, of Tennessee, Democratic leader in the house, late today introduced a joint resolution declaring void the lease of naval reserve lands to the Mammoth Oil Co. as represented by Harry P. Sinclair and to the Pan-American Petroleum and Transport Co., as represented by E. L. Doheny. NEW YORK. Jan. 26.—Edward L. Doheny, here to search for the note which Albert B. Fall gave him for a $100,000 loan, declared today it was “right and proper that the government should investigate the possibility of criminal action in leasing of the naval reserve lands and prosecute if any crimes have been committed.” “So far as I and the Pan-American Petroleum and Transport Co., are concerned, there is nothing to fear,” he added. “Our lean HELL RELIGIOUS FANATICS COLONY MANILA, Jan. 26. After a embardment by the cruiser Sacramento, entrenched colorums, an national Filipino organization, atocroo, on Bucas Island, Colonelowers and 100 constabularymen ended and charged the natives under a barrage fire laid down by the war vessel. Because of difficulty of defense and re-embarkation in case of and weather., Colonel Bowers ordered the town burned and returned to the Sacramento with his men. One constabularyman was kill-ler. The extent of the Colorums' casualties is unknown, two dead and two seriously burned having been found in the town. RECOVERING FROM EFFECTS OF FAST Slight improvement has been shown in Carl Johnson, Huntington Beach, who recently ended a 45 days, according to reports today from Orange county hospital. Johnson was brought to the hospital in a serious condition as a result of breaking the last with a heavy meal. MONKEY BUSINESS J. E. Prentice was today in possession of a court judgment for $64.75 on account of four conkies he recently sold to C. C. On his neck a big patch of skin had been wrenched off by the clawing fingers who had sought to strangle him. Over his body were contusions and great bruises, some blue and some others, presumably freshly inflicted, red and sore. The body of the little girl and her head was a mass of welts. When hospital attendants approached him to tell him the photographer had come to take his picture, he jumped up from his chair in the long cement alley and said: "Gee, how do you like my flower?" On the table was a bouquet of humble blossoms which he had picked from the county hospital gardens and brought up to brighten the little place allotted to the little children. "You bet, they are mighty pretty," said Dr. I. J. Lopisich, and the little boy beamed at the compliment, perhaps the first he has had since his own mother died over a year ago from the "flie" in Los Angeles. "I wish we had our real mother back," said Ernest, and he retrieved a stocking that was wont to come down and expose the big black marks on his legs. "Yes, she was good to us and loved us, and when she baked cookies we could have some hot." A delegation of women, who first called the attention of the district attorney's office to the case, had just visited them. The group who made the complaint included Mrs. J. D. Griset, Mrs. H. L. Sandey, Mrs. Guy Derby, Mrs. H. W. Hants, Mrs. Walter Derby, Mrs. M. Andrews and Mrs. Hammond, the grandmother of the children. "Many a time I have gone outside and found the children eating from the garbage can," said Mrs. Guy Derby indignantly. "I have seen the little fellow trying to carry two-by-fours in the rain. When I asked him why he didn't go in the house he said he was afraid to go in before it was dark and time to go to bed." STOCKS CLOSE STRONG NEW YORK, Jan. 26. The stock market closed strong today. The forward movement was again continued during the abbreviated session with trading on an unusually heavy scale for a Saturday. Rails and steels were leaders Pennsylvania rose nearly 2 points to 46. New York Central advanced 1 point to 103%. Steel Common reached 104½ and Beth Steel was 1½ higher at 18%. Corn Products were 3½ up to 186½. About the only active weak spot was Pan-American Petroleum which dropped 2 points. NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-Edward L. Doheny, here to search for the note which Albert B. Fall gave him for a $100,000 loan, declared today it was "right and proper that the government should investigate the possibility of criminal action in leasing of the naval reserve lands and prosecute if any crimes have been committed." "So far as I and the Pan-American Petroleum and Transport Co., are concerned, there is nothing to fear," he added. "Our leases were regular and proper. There was nothing criminal about our transaction." "So far as our leases are concerned, I have offered to turn them back to the government if an impartial investigation shows any irregularities." Doheny arrived from Washington last night and is stopping at the home of his son, Edward L. Doheny, Jr., who is in California. He said he had not yet had an opportunity to search for the note of the Fall loan but that he expected it to "turn up." WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-Teapot Dome, with all its ugly aspects, was definitely thrust in the approaching political campaign today. With the Democrats planning to make it one of their chief issues and the White House indicating that criminal action is to follow the leasing of the great naval oil reserves by ex-Secretary of the Interior Fall, Senator Hiram Johnson, Republican of California, the only avowed candidate against President Coolidge, came forth today with a demand that the leases be cancelled immediately. "No candidate can avoid the issue," declared Senator Heffin of Ala. "The Coolidge administration will take no action until the hearings have been virtually completed." While President Coolidge now inlines to the belief that Teapot Dame is heading directly toward criminal action, it was nevertheless pointed out at the White House today that such action can only come when the administration is sure of its ground. At the direction of the president, Secretary of the Interior Work today started an investigation of the legal and technical aspects of the Teapot Dome and California oil leases. It also was learned that an official statement of the president's views concerning the leases probably would be issued by the White House following the testimony of former secretary Fall before the senate investigating committee. Fall himself, broken and ill, will be accorded an opportunity to tell his story Monday before action is begun, either toward criminal prosecution or cancellation of the leases he negotiated.

Prentice was today in possession of a court judgment for $6.75 on account of four monkeys he recently sold to C. C. Cash, used car dealer, but Tash was not in possession of four monkeys. Two of the animals escaped some time ago and amused themselves with excursions through the residence districts paying particular attention to choice fruit trees. Prentice sued Tash for $100 after Tash, not wanting to keep the monkeys, had failed to send them back to Prentice. The court deducted from the 100 claim of Prentice $35.25, representing a claim presented by Tash against Prentice. MAY EXPECT DRY AGENT ANY TIME PORTLAND, Jan. 26—Speaking before the district attorney's association of Oregon were last night, Governor Walter I. Pierce declared time has modified the old adage that every man's home is his castle and sanctuary, and in the future Oregon homes must be kept in such condition that a visit from an inspector of the state prohibition offices will be welcomed at any time. "The laws and customs have changed vastly since first was announced the right and doctrine that every man's home was his castle and sanctuary," the governor said, adding: "The law clearly makes it your duty as district attorneys to cooperate with the prohibition commissioner. As a matter of necessity it is a secret service, and must and will remain so. We claim the right to go into any place in the state at any time as secret agents and discover, if possible, violations of the law." NEW YORK, Jan. 26—The stock market closed strong today. The forward movement was again continued during the abbreviated session with trading on an unusually heavy scale for a Saturday. Rails and steels were leaders. Pennsylvania rose nearly 2 points to 46. New York Central advanced 1 point to 103%. Steel Common reached 104% and Beth Steel was 1%; higher at 18%. Corn Products were 3½ up to 186%.

Fall himself, broken and ill, will be accorded an opportunity to tell his story Monday before action is begun, either toward criminal prosecution or cancellation of the leases he negotiated to the Sinclair and Doheny interests. He borrowed sums ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 from both, according to the evidence. Meanwhile, the public lands committee itself went back to work today to try to straighten out the maze of conflicting testimony and charges before it. Archie Roosevelt and G. D. Wahiberg, both of whom resigned from Sinclair's company because of suspicions, were summoned by Senator Smoot, Republican of Utah, to explain differences concerning a payment of $68,000 to Tom Johnson, foreman of Fall's New Mexico ranch. Roosevelt previously testified Wahiberg had told him about cancelled checks for this amount which aroused his suspicions. Wahiberg later said Roosevelt was mistaken, that he made no mention of $68,000, but had referred to "six or eight cattle." Interest of the committee also centered around an unsigned memorandum found in the committee's files Clerks declared they do not know how it got there. The memorandum denied Fail ever obtained money from Sinclair or Doheny and assailed the investigation into Fall's private financial affairs as "an attack upon decency." Senator Walsh, Democrat of Montana, said today C. C. Chase, Fall's son-in-law, or Senator Smoot may be called to the stand to tell if they know anything about the memorandum.

If there were any slip-ups they were not apparent to the audience. Everything was excellent—singing, both solo and orchestration, staging and costuming. When it comes to individual mentions, the entire list of soloists could be mentioned. Maurice Phillips as the Sheriff of Nottingham backed up a splendid singing and speaking voice with some very excellent acting. Mrs. J. M.

Dustin Farnum has the leading role as John Buckner, a pictureque Kentuckian who strikes into the gold country to recuperate his fortune. Margaret Fielding has the opposite part as his wife and companion on the long trail across the continent. The story is one of the eternal triangle in a new form. It is remarkably well told in the acting of an excellent cast. The desert storm scene, in which the cavalcade of gold hunters is caught without water, is realistic. The scenes of Kentucky as it was in the days of duels, drink and daredevils, are remarkably well done.

Center St. Anaheim AT CALL ORNIA Mae Murray and her big picture, "Fashion Row," will close their engagement at the California tonight. Manager Ingram has been bemoaning the fact that he could not secure additional dates on this production, because "Fashion Row" has been particularly interesting to the lady patrons of the California, many saying that it is a most beautiful production, especially the wardrobe worn by Miss Murray being the most elaborate that has ever been shown in films. Tomorrow (Sunday) brings one of the biggest picture successes that the Associated First National Pictures has yet released. This is none other than 'Flaming Youth,' starring Colleen Moore. This production has the distinction of playing a longer engagement at the Lowes-State in Los Angeles, than any other picture to date. It having held the boards there for three weeks. When it is considered that Lowe's State is a week's stand house, the fact that they were compelled to hold "Flaming Youth" for the third week speaks well for the production. In "Flaming Youth" the most famous flapper of modern fiction steps from the pages of Warner Fabian's sensational "best seller" to the screen. Miss Moore has the featured role of Patricia Fentriss in "Flaming Youth," the first national super-production filmed under the direction of John Francis Dillon. As little Pat, Colleen essays the role of a naive young flapper whose career is one frivolous love affair after another. Pat, to use the phraseology of her own set, is a terrible "necker" and King Jazz is her god, as it is to most of her associates. Conventions simply don't belong in her code. But she has an awakening, and it comes in a most dramatic and romantic way. Milton Sills as Carey Scott has the leading male role opposite Colleen, while Myrtle Stedman is to be seen as the beautiful, indulgent mother of three daughters of the world of jazz of whom Pat is the youngest. Others who play important roles are Elliott Dexter, Sylvia Brosmer, Betty Francisco, Ben Lyon, Walter McGrall, George Barraud and John Patrick. markably well told in the acting of an excellent cast. The desert storm scene, in which the cavalcade of gold hunters is caught without water, is realistic. The scenes of Kentucky as it was in the days of duels, drink and daredevils, are remarkably well done. When Buckner, the Kentuckian, goes west in search of gold, he leaves his bride in the care of a cousin whom he trusts implicitly. Temptation is too strong for this cousin to resist and he gives vent to an old love for the woman. He convinces her that Buckner has died. He returns suddenly, having struck gold, to find his wife in the other man's arms. A duel ends the career of the cousin and Buckner burns the ancestral mansion, then takes his wife into the west, not as the woman of his heart, but as chattel property. In the terror of the desert she eventually proves her virtues and her love of Buckner, with the result that their former romance kindles. Rough and tumble fights, a terrific storm on the desert, striking love scenes and splendid shots of nature make "Kentucky Days" a first rate picture. CLAIMS SEED NOT INSPECTED Both state and county authorities may prosecute Allen W. Miller, arrested here at the instance of San Diego officers on a charge of violating the agricultural quarantine laws, it was learned today. Miller, said to be a grass salesman, posted $50 bail for his appearance at San Diego Monday, at 10 a.m. In San Diego Miller is charged with selling seed that had not been inspected by the horticultural authorities.
