Pretty Fanny Rice Exalts Love.

The actor may marry in or out of the
profession. In the former case, though,
most managers object to having married
couples in their companies, and this brings
about temporary separation, which eyentu-
ally becomes 1T, and ends up in
divorce. 1t has been said, and still is
thought by many people, that the exig-
encles of a players life are such as conduce
to jealousy and MISUNDERSTANDING. |
don't think this is so. Love will find no
room for doubt. The temptations that
harass both actors and actresses are many.
but if a person be single in his affections,
if his love be of the right ring. nothing can
effect misunderstanding or disruption. Let
there be no distinction made between the
PLAYER and the rest of the world. We are
all alike in our love for home and our de-
sire to love and be loved. Only let those
contemplating matrimony look at it in a
more holy light, consider it thoroughly and
approach it with care and hesitation.

A deer is a much sought animal by him,
and when captured the lion can throw the
body over his shoulder and bear it away to
his den. They are very scientific said
Briggs, "in carrying away and concealing
the bodies of animals they have killed for
food. They will drag a steer or horse over
rocks, where it would be almost impossible
for man to go, and roll the carcass over a
cleft into some hidden nook. where it is
eaten at leisure. l found no trail of a two
y~ear-old colt in the snow that a lion had
killed. Instead of dragging the colt the
lion had thrown it over his shoulder and
carrying it several hundred yards dropped
it over a precipice."
Hall, Haskill, Briggs and other hunters
consider the lion cowardly by nature. But
when hungry, or its young are in danger,
or the hunter is near where the lion has
food concealed. then look out, for the lion
will fight, and the sportman needs a good
rifle and steady nerve.
There are usually two cubs, but some
hunters tell me they have seen us many az
four cubs with a lioness.
Owing to the great slaughter of stock by
these lions, a $40 bounty is paid for their
scalps. Their hides sell for from as to S25.

Minnie Palmer Disagrees With Crane.

+. | think actors and actresses should marry
if they can marry in the profession; that is,
come one who is connected with theatrical
matters in some way or other. The diff
Guilty in an actress marrying outside her
profession is this: A man who is in an
other business cannot understand what
women on the stage are obliged to do in
acting, n they Immediately resent their
wives atfectionate manner to their lovers
in the play. Whereas, if the husband were
a professional man he would understand
that 1T was obligatory on her part, and
think rothlng of it. 1t is the same with an
actor marrying a woman off the stage. She
becomes intensely jealous of her husband
making love with any other woman.

There are certainly as many happy mar

sideration the small percentage of theatri-

1t is because every little incident about tho
life of an actor or actress is made public
that outsiders imagine there is moro I'M
happiness among theatrical folk thar
Others. An actress who marries a man
not interested in theatrical matters should
at once make up her mind to give up the
stage and retire to private life, if she wishes
to be happy. With men it is different, for

Actor Should Not Marry Actor.

I don't see why actors and actresses
should no marry and be happy, if they
marry out of the profession, as it is very
hard and very unsatisfactory to be sepa-
rated and obliged to play in different COM
panies. If husband and wife could be
placed in the same company always. then
everything would arrange itself nicely; but
very few managers nowadays care to have
both man and wife, as it causes trouble,
and the manager has two to contend with
then instead of one only.
If an actor or actress is DESTROYS of mar
riage, then let them endeavor to seek their
life companion outside the ranks.

Thought, and patient endeayor. Unless the
domestic relations interfere with these quail
tiles, the actor need not fenr that his audi
ence is concerning itself with thoughts of
his private life.
/ think that there exists but one question
in regard to the ACCESSIBILITY OF an actors
marriage. and that ia in the case of the
woman of the stage who marries tho man
not connected with it. However glorious
her talents, no woman with n true heart in
her breast can find perfect content and
happiness without love and the dear ties of
home. No good woman should marry
unless a love deeper and greater than TINT
which she feels for her art is BORN to her.
Ii a man suffers in what seems n public ex-
hibition Of the dear personality SO sacred
to him. the right sort of a woman will not
hesitate a moment in relinquishing that
which is humiliating to her husband, and
consequently dangerous to the perfect con-
tent of their union. Glory and fame are
very charming things, but totally made
quate to meet the heart of a true woman.
If u woman be not a genius. she has no
definite duty to perform in the world of
art.
In discussing a matter of this kind, one
nnconsciously assumes the loftiest attitude.
In the world of art, the impulses of the I'M

scarcely be taken into account.

Lydia Thompson in the Affirmative.

/ do not think any particular profession
should be SO jealous of its members as to
prevent marrying and giving in marriage.
Actors should certainly marry, but, to my
mind, it is a question whether they should
marry in the profession if they intend to
keep their wives on the stage. Where the
actor husband and the actress wife have
to act from season to season in different
companies, then l decidedly think the actor
should not marry. This separation natur-
ally leads to n legal separation. To my
mind, much of the divorce scandal preva-
lent in the profession is due primarily to
husband and wife playing in different COM
panies. Where the actor Keeps his
wife off the stage then l can see
no reason why he should not marry. Even
if he plays i'll the same company with his
wife, he is wise in marrying. If the ques-
tion is asked. Should actors, as a class,
marry? l would certainly answer in the
affirmative. From a moral standpoint,
marriage should not iniure an actor, and I
do not think that connubial bliss is inim-
ical to success Upon the stage. Marriage
oftentimes puts a man on his mettle,
arouses his lethargy, and makes him push
forward with an energy and courage tina
means success. But, from a romantic point
of view, some men expand and become
greater in their acting under the sweet in
1uence of matrimony, while others deter
iorate. LYDIA THOMPSON.

@ THE ARIZONA SUGAR COMPANY O

The capital stock of the company is one hundred thousand Q00,000) shares of ten ($l0) dollars each.
 One-half of the capital stock will be sold in the Territoryof Arizona, payable in land adapted to the cultivation of sugar beets, sugarcane sorghum and sac charine products at the market price.
 The other half will be sold for cash, at not less than par, for the purpose of pur- chasing, importing and erecting machin- cry adapted to manufacturing domestic sugar.
 The fifty thousand shares reserved for the farmers can be paid for at any time within five years from the date of the organization in land or it's saccharine productions, such as sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, etc., etc., and the sub scribers will be entitled to draw a divi- dend pro rata on payments made.
 The fifty thousand cash shares must
 
 entitled to a full dividend semi-annually.
 It is reasonably expected that the company can declare dividend of 25 per cent per annum on current business, and have some land left.
 After the capital stock shall have been disposed of and one-half fully paid in cash, the company will be authorized to issue equal to one-half of the capital stock, bonds secured by mortgage, upon all the property of the company, pay able in twenty years, with interest at the rate of percentum per annum, payable semi-annually, for the purpose of devoting the proceeds to the purchase of land, and for no other purpose; pIo- vided, always, that these bonds cannot be issued nor mortgage on the prop erty executed without the approval of a majority of the shareholders.
 The Government of the United States offers to pay bounty of two cents per pound or 40 dollars per ton on domestic manufactured sugar, and to admit tree ot duty, until the first day of July, 1892, all machinery required for its manu- facture.
 The Territorial Legislature, at its last session, passed an act exempting all land used in the cultivation of sugar beets, as well as the plant and machin- cry employed in the manufacture of do, mestic sugar, from taxation for ten years.
 We imported from foreign countries during the last fiscal year, sugar, mo- lasses, candy and confectionery to the value of $1Ol ,293 1926, or sent away up wards of one hundred million dollars, which can be retained at home by en- couraging the manufacture of domestic , sugar.
 The average yield of saccharine matter from sugar beets in France is only 6 per cent, in Germany 10 per cent. In California the average yield is 1E per cent.
 It is confidently believed that the soil and sun of Arizona will yield much larger polarization from sugar beet' than France, Germany, California, or any other country; and if these premises art |. correct, the profits will exceed that of any r other sugar factory in the United States

 The Northwestern Hide and Fur con- pany, of Minneapolis, have made some suggestions about skinning animal car casses that will be of use to our readers. It cannot be too strongly impressed on the rearers of live stock that every scar, cut or blemish in an animals skin takes away largely from the value of tho dress ed hide Brands upon the body, cuts from OK goads or whips, scratches or hurts of any kind run the price of the hide down in a rapidly descending scale. Where the live animal has been subjected to cruel treatment the skin is in many cases so injured as to be practically worthless

Poiuts of Interest.

An Illinois farmer very properly ob- jects to the term "breaking" colts. That which usually goes under this name should never mean anything more than educating the animals to do certain kinds of work that will increase their value and usefulness. We do not want to break down the colts spirit at all, but merely to direct it, and this can best be done by making the fIisky young creat- ure know that you are his friend.
 For a number of months American live stock inspectors have been stationed by the United States government at for eign ports where our live food animals are debarked. During all these months the inspectors have watched closely, and yet not one case of pneumonia have they found among our beef cattle shipped abroad. What have foreign governments to say now about the healthfulness of American meat?
 Spring auction sales of pedigreed cat. tie are taking place in variouslarge cities of the country. Cattle stock has seri' ously deteriorated in the past few years, owing to the fact that farmers, breeders and ranchmen were disgusted with the low prices that prevailed, and let their stock get down at the heel. Whole herds of splendid pedigreed animals were in some cases sold at mere butchers prices for scrub meat. The indications are that now the owners of these will wish they had not done it. So pay particular attention to the blood of your stock cat tie this spring.
