NEW STAGE FORTUNES
Mansfield, WarfieId, Anna Held
Among Seasons Successes.
MAXINE ELLIoTT'S LONG TOUR

Miss Held Gets $1,000 a Week Salary
In 1.-THE Partisan ModeI"-WarfieId
and Mansfield Each Made at Least
100000.
Although the struggle for popularity
and success on the stage Is so difficult
that many actors and actresses never
realize their ambition, there Is great
financial reward for those who succeed
in accomplishing an artistic triumph.
The present theatrical season has
been a remarkably successful one
throughout the country, and the
amounts made by some actors place an
independently fortune at their disposal.
OF the many stars who have enjoyed
success probably no two performers
have met with greater financial re-
ward than Richard Mansfield and Da-
vid Warfeld. Both of theA actors
have the advantage of sharing extern
sively in the profits of their shows, and
their share this season Is placed con.
servatively at 100000 each.
Mr. Mansfield has no manager to
share his profits, and, with the excep-
ton Of one or two plays, he has not
been obliged to pay any royalties,
which is in itself great saving. Mr..
Warfeld's success in 1.-THE Music Mas
ter has been phenomenal, and, al
though 1t has been running for three
years, It was never the great "bonan-
70" that it has proved this season.
John Drew has been kept busy with
Arthur Pinero's "House In Order" and
his percentage, added to bis salary of
$500 week, brings his income up to
$4,000. Sothern and Marlowe's sea-
son in Shakespearean repertory has
netted them not less than $4,000 each.
Willie Collier draws money three
ways from Caught In the Rain" Be
ing co-author, he is entitled to the roy
alties, and his salary and percentage
will make his season worth at least
$4,000.
Robert Mantell never enjoyed more
successful season, and his thirty-f1ve
weeks just ended finds him many

600 already made in this country. Rob-
ert Lorraine has had another successful
tour with MAN and Superman," which
will net him $4,000.
With but few exceptions many of
the actresses have been more success
full than the actors. Maxine Elliott
and Margaret Anglin divide the hon
ors for big profits among the fair sex.
Miss Elliott showed excellent judgment
by making a tour in Her Great
Match" The result is that out of
town theater goers 6ocked to see her
and increased her income to $65, 000
1t Is common gossip among theatrical
folk who have just returned from the
circuit that Miss Elliott enjoyed one
of her most successful tours and that
she scored heavily where several other
shows proved failures
Miss AnElin proved that her artistic
temperament does not interfere with
her business judgment Miss Anglin
owns the right to 1.-THE Great Divide"
and In addition to drawing q sa1yy of
$500 weekly she shared one-thfrd OF the
profits. As the receipts of 'The Great
Divide" during its run at the Princess
theater, New YQEk, have been In the
neighborhood of 500, 600, Miss AnglIn's
income Tor the season Is brought up TO
the handsome sum OF $4,000.

Held probably holds the record. Miss
! Held appears In her husbands produc-
ton Of THE Partisan MODEL and re-
ceives the modest salary Of $1,000 a
week. With a season Of forty weeks
1t can be readily seen that Miss Held
is still a success as a money maker.

is purposely or ignorantly miscalculat-
ing, for it can be plainly seen that as
the increase of population arising from
the better water facilities would great
ly change the amount in favor of the
water system, it has been absolutely
proved that the diminishing of water
has placed the barrier upon the in
crease of capital and manufactures.
Our local water facilities are absolutely
inadequate and the surface of the water
level is continually falling. The rivers
like the San Gabriel and others are
very uncertain and cannot be depend
ed upon to furnish water for a city
as large as Los Angeles and the sur
rounding country, which require much
water. Therefore 1t seems the most
feasible way to secure the water from
Owens river. The water is as pure as
can be obtained anywhere and Of a
sufficient quantity for future genera
tions, and should not be allowed to
remain unused when it is so compare
lively easy Of access"
Andrew G.. Park followed in an en-
thusiastic address in favor of the
Owens river water plan. He inter-
spersed his remarks with amusing in
cidents and brought out facts and fig
ures that were highly instructive.
Just before the close or the address
of Mr.. Park Rev. Mr.. Harper entered
the hall and said that he was not to
speak on the Owens water question,
but that he was decidedly in favor of
it, for it would help his forestry work
in planting of trees. He made an en-
thusiastic address, asking citizens of
Los Angeles to plant and care for trees
on the streets.
A vote was taken, which was unani-
nous in favor Of the Owens river water
plan.
