Trinidad is again enjoying the
blessings of water supply after
being practically without for nearly
three weeks. The reservoir dam,
10 miles west Of the city, which
was washed out by the big flood
on the night of August 4, has been
rebuilt and water is again flowing
in.
The hauling of sugar beets will
soon be the most engrossing work
of our farmers. And we fear that
in many sections the roads will not
be found in the best of condition
for this heavy traffic. Those in
authority should see to it that the
roads are put in the best possible
shape. The great extent OF sugar

ATHLETES ON THE STAGE.
Athletes who get into theatricals, ,un.
less they are unusually careful of
themselves, are the shortest lived of
any in athletics. Dissipation, unearth-
ly hours, irregular eating and drink
ing-all these things are thrown direct
ly in their way an are often necessi-
ties in their manner of life. This does
much to take the springiness from
their step and the luster from their
eyes and the theatrical athlete of 4O
begins to be quite an old man. While
they last, of course, their proficiency
is marvellous and their feats are often
seemingly impossible. The severe
twists the bumps and jars of every
day circus or variety show life are
in themselves things which would
shorten life and make the performers
existence, though it may be dazzingly
brilliant, distressingly short.

THE PASSING OF

When the wandering actor returns

town, for there is little but the side
walk left of the Tenderloin he former

it for a landmark, so is the Greeley
statute but the ruthless hand of the
wrecker has been laid upon everything
else and nothing but ruin and desola-
ton remain.
In the place where James ]. Corbett

irons there is now nothing but an
empty. silent stretch Of rooms. On

his admirers how he disposed of Sulli-

The lower class of houses Of amuse-
ment still hover around Twenty
ninth street, west of Broadway, but
IL is not long until these, too, must go.
Since business has claimed the ground
in this part of town for its own it has
become too valuable for concert halls
and places of this kind. The first step
was taken when the ground was
bought for what is promised to be
the largest and finest department
store in the world. Already the ground
lying between Thirty fourth street on
the south, Thirty-ffth street on the
north, Broadway ON the east, and the
west wall of Roster & BiaPs on the
west, swarms with workmen. From a
little distance that site, which was
one of the center of the Tenderloin,
looks like great ant hill, with hun
dreds of ants running this way and
that, each busily doing his own little
share of the work. 1t is less than
three weeks since ground was first
broken there, but already much has
been done toward getting the ground
ready for building. Over 500 men are
at work night and day.
