The Greatest Trottar.

One hardly knows whether Suaol, the
California 5-year-old mare, is the great
est trotter or not. It is true she made a
mile in 2:083. beating by half second
the great performance of Maud s at
Cleveland in 1885. But Maud s won
her 2:0Sf upon the old fashioned track.
Sunol's track at Stockton, Cal, was the
kite shaped one, with only one long turn.
The kite shaped track fayors the horse
to such an extent that it is still some
what matter Of doubt whether Sunol
is faster than Maud s.
There are several things, however,
that are not matters of doubt. One Is
that Robert Bonner certainly owns the
two fastest trotters on the globe. What
a sighr it would be to see the two beau
ties together in a light road wagon.
Another thing not in doubt is that 1891
will stand as the most famous record
breaking year in half a century in sew
eral lines.
As to trotters, win the prize banner
for the state that breeds the greatest
trotters pass from Kentucky to Califor-
mia? Maud s, the Kentucky mare, made
her great record Of 2:084 when she was
II years old. Sunol, the splendid Cali
fornian, is only 5. It is claimed that a
horses racing qualities improve up to
the animals eighteenth year. It may
be, therefore. that Sunol may beat even

Pay of Actors.

Some of the figures of the salaries sue
cessful actors receive look bewildering to
the clerk or typewriter who tolls eight to
ten hours a day for from seven to fifteen
dollars week. But the ones who get
the large pay are about as one to 500.
Then, too, it is to be remembered that
theatrical people are unemployed two to
three months in the year, and must live
during the summer ON what they save
in the season. Again. their expenses are
enormous compared to those of the ordi-
nary wage worker. They dare not
'.skimp' either their stomachs or their
backs, for the effect will at once be
manifest In their physical appearance,
and to the player physical appearance is
everything.

work, in basement in New York.

denly took the public by storm, and
rode upon the waves of popularity to
fame and fortune. He received last
season $500 a7week, with extra pay for
matinees. Before he became rich he
began to build modest home for him
self in one of New York's prettiest sub,

accession of fortune the design was re-
