AT CHURCH MARYSVILLE, Feb. 4.—Members of the Christian church here were commenting today on the unexpected visit paid their service last night by the Ku Klux Klan. Twelve klan knights, believed to be from Sacramento, attired in full regalia, entered the church while the service was in progress, walked up the aisle and handed the minister, the Rev. Lloyd Morgan, a purse of $50. WOULD IIST ORDER LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4.—Representatives of the Sc. Calif. Gas Co. today appeared before Federal Court. GOOD STOCK CO. BUT POOR PLAY Channing Pollock, the well-known New York playwright, once wrote a pot boiler, and its name is "The Sign on the Door." The play now is being given at the United Theatre. We presume one's critical power is based partly on the height of one's critical ideals. But perhaps that power is sharpened if not brought into exercise by matter of inferior sort. The United was jammed late night, partly to see an excellent motion picture play, "Puritan Passions," partly to see a good stock company. But we submit that "The Sign on the Door" is a miserable no-drama, unworthy both of Pollock and of the Royal Stock Co. The threadbare motive of the innocent wife who in her younger days might have been ruined, but was not even besmirched by a scourge, is spun out in four acts—acnowaday being little more than scenes to the amusement even of the lowbrows. Miss Elliott holds up the thin well as Ann Hunniwell and later Mrs. Lafe Regan, and James Dillon; playing opposite her in the role of Frank Devereau, is a capable villain. Devereau made the only bright remark in the play when he says that a rolling stone doesn't need to gather any moss; he's got the moss already. Mr. Royal himself falls a minor role, that of the Assistant District Attorney, who once not evidenced by playing the part of waiter in a road house. We have no doubt "The Sign on the Door" will draw its crowds and theater have to be filled. We'll be glad next Sunday, or later, to return to the plane of "Smilin' Thru'" and one or two other plays which the company has put on here.

Fireworks Usher in Chinese New Year SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4.—The rattle of firecrackers ushered in the observance of the Chinese New Year in Chinatown, despite the edict of Fire Marshal Hannan that there should be no firecrackers this year. Inasmuch as the millions of firecrackers set off every year are for the purpose of driving to cover the bad devils that have affected business, pleasure, love and life in general during the past year, New Year's without the noise would be of little avail. Today learned counsel was employed and a compromise reached whereby forbidden firecrackers may be exploded within areas and at certain times. Incidentally, all Chinese are settling their debts. That is another way of getting rid of the bad devils, and is a custom adhered to by every Chinaman.
