just how actors do spend their money
a manager told The Sun reporter the
other day; for very few Of them live IN
luxury They may have a house and a
valet but with expenditures OF this kind
they stop. They rarely keep yachts or
horses and few Of them mG-~>the least
pretenee 10 keeping up an establishment.
I've often thought they would be much
moro sensible II they did Yet with all
their earnings they come to the end of
their days without cent.
"0ne way they use up money Is, of
course; through certain kind of ostenta~
ton in which they live on their travels
They take suits in small hotels, have
their meals served upstairs when they
are, If possible little bit worse than they
are downstairs and they give suppers to
the members of their companies and in
other ways that do not show but cost a
great deal they let their money slip away.
u know one star who travels now IN
most extravagant way and | suppose
she enjoys It. She takes a motor, two
maids, a valet and always has large
suite of rooms in which there Is sup
per almost every night. OF course that
may be fun but it is using mp every
cent she earns Yet that woman has a
very modest house in the country where
she spends her summers and no home
at all in New York. She never lives with
the least pretence to elegance in her own
home. All her money is splashed out IN
life on the road,
1T is the same way with most OF the
managers in this city. They don't seem
TO have much fun out Of their money.
They never spend 1t as other men who
made the same incomes would. One sees
them around the hotels and chop houses
of Broadway Just as If they were stu
agents on a small salary. II is true that
they have begun to live little different
" during the past few years, but there
is still no good reason why they should
work so hard to make money from winch
they have so little pleasure. Usually IL
goes after a while and they might as well
have spent it in enjoying themselves as
have paid 1t out to authors and actors.
Go into one of the Fifth avenue restau-
rants where you see men of all KINDS
ENJOYING their money and tell me If you
ever saw a manager among them On the
other hand none of them-with very
few exceptions-ever buys his own nome
and lives with any degree OF eonIoft
or luxury in II. Yet in spite OF the httie
fun they have out of It the money goes.

he called Mr.. Seaman out to look at il. Not
ing that it locke unusually large around

what was responsible for its enormous slze.
Accordingly a slit was made with a knife in
the thin portion Of the snakes stomach.
when to their surprise small rattlesnakes,
about thirteen inches in length. began TO run
out, and in a few moments the ground was
literally alive with them. wriggling and
squirming about.

taken they found that t~wenty-four rattle
snakes had been killed the old one, which
measured seven and a half feet In length,
