Jessie Busley, too, sings in a most de-
lightful manner, although this is only
her first season on the stage as a vocal

brightness of the performance by their
pretty costumes and the catchy cho-

Bentley and Miss Marie Cahill, the two
principals, were given rooms in the
mansion. Moreover, Miss Bentley who
made her entrance down the center
aisle of the improvised theater, was
handed over the footlights by Mr.. Van
derbilt himself And greater honor,
surely could no actress have than this.
But, alas and alacz! If Mr.. and Mrs.
Vanderbilt's condescension made the
performance run smoothly and the
players happy the supper that followed
this performance was Favored Win
some bitterness. This supper was serV-
ed to the players after the performance,
which did not end till 230 in the morn
ing. The bitter flavor was furnished
by little chorus girl. She came to
Beaulieu with joy in her heart, glad of
the chance to "trip q measure" before
the exclusive 400" But the dazzling
display of wealth proved too much for
her and envy entered her heart. Per-
haps it was the chill received in the
damp tent that was the beginning Of
her discomfort. At any rate as the
evening progressed the discomfort in
creased. She considered her SIS per
week salary and gloomily contrasted it
with the wealth about her. And though
she "tripped her measure" she did it
mournfully. Finally when the supper
was announced this most eXtraordin-
airy little chorus girl fatty refused to
eat anything. She would not sip the
Vanderbilt wine! She would not sam
pie the Vanderbilt ice cream! She de-
parted from Beaulieu empty of stomach
and sick at heart, and of all the COM
pany she is the only one who refuses to
go into raptures over the condescension
of her host and hostess, who were also,
of course, her employers.

she has appeared could not by any
possible chance offend the most deli

able to make this boast in the future?
Announcement has been made that this
popular actress will open her season
with LA Refine Fiametta," play by
Catulle Mendes. The play was produce
ed in Paris at the Theater Libre, in
1898, and though it did not shock Pa
risians-the man who discovers the
thing that should make his fortune
over there-nobody found it tame. The
scene of the play is laid in Italy in the
sixteenth century and the chief char
acter is a Queen Orlando, who has been
nicknamed Fiametta, which name
translated literally means little hot
blaze. And Fiammetta lives up to her
name in the play. Not long ago an en-
terprising interviewer. claimed he had a
talk with Julia Marlowe in the course
of which she had stated that she was
tired of depicting the characters of
proper heroines and had intimated that
she envied the success of Nethersole
and Mrs. Leslie Carter. Miss Marlowe
Indignantly denied the interview, but
unless her new play is an eXpurgated
edition of the one that was produced in
Paris it would seem that there was
some truth in the story.

An article in the current number of
q periodical devoted entirely to the
theater, or, as it prefers to style 1t,
the drama, goes into ecstacies over the
courteous treatment Mr.. and Mrs Cor
nelius Vanderbilt Jr. accorded the play
ers who took part in the wild Rose
the comic opera which was recently
given at Beaulieu, the Vanderbilts'
Newport residence. Bouquets for the
actresses, so the article states, were
handed over the footlights by Mr.. Van
derbilt himself. Both host and hostess
spoke pleasantly to each member of the
company. Mrs. Vanderbilt personally
complimented the composer and the
librettist on their work. In short, so
the article declares, from the time the
company arrived at Beaulieu till they
left early in the morning, they were
made to feel that they were welcome
guests at the Vanderbilts. To be sure
the chorus girls had to dress in tents

Electrical Possibilities.

Arizona engineers regard the Grand Canyon of the Colorado as affording one of the greatest fields in existence for the develop ment of electricity from water power. In addition to the immense power of the Colorado itself, large stores of energy are available in the smaller streams that leap into the vast chasm. The plan by which the main stream will, it is now thought, eventually be uti- lized, is that of picking up the fall of the stream by means of tunnels. At a point about seventy miles north of Williams it is said that a fall of 5000 feet can be found in a distance but little exceeding a mile. Mining World.

Santa Fe Buys a Rail Road.

The Santa Fe railway has secured a terminal and ferry in Oakland by purchasing the California & Nevada railroad, a narrow gauge line which was planned to run from Emery vile, a suburb of Oakland, to Bodie, near the line between Cali fornia and Nevada. Only twenty two miles of road were ever built.
 The road was sold under fore closure by the Central Trust com pany of New York. The Santa Fe paid $5O,OOo for the property, whose chief value is its terminal facilities for ferry between Oakland and San Francisco.
