man who always notices, "in how
many suburban towns the railroad
serves not only as q means Of trans
portation. but as a dividing line So
cially?
"The reason? Why, dare say it Is
founded on the fact that land on one
side Of the railroad is generally more
desirable for residence than on the
other. Therefore it commands a bet
ter price, and that section Of the popu-
lation is apt to be bit more select.
"I asked friend today, for example,
whether he knew a certain person who
was q newcomer in his town. No.

FATE OF A STAGE PRODIGY.

Mastsr Betty. Who. It Appears, Over.
stayed HE Wsleoms.
It may interest readers to know
that rather over 100 years ago-in
1907. to be precise-the country
was worshiping at the shrine of q
twelre-year-old prodigy, a boy actor
tho juvenile Henry Irving of his
time. says the Glasgow Mail. While
ct the height Of his fame and pop
ularity this infantile marvel visited,
among other places, Glasgow and
Edinburgh, and in both of these
towns he is said to have created q
hitherto undreamt of sensation.
The wonderful youngsters name
was William Henry West Betty, and
he was Irish to the backbone. His
histrionic capabilities were evident
ly born with him, for it is recorded
that when at the age Of eight his
father treated him to his first visit
to the theater young Betty at the
conclusion Of the play salemnly in
formed his parent that he had de-
cided to be an actor himself.
How the youngster subsequently
came to get footing on the stage
is not known, but in the month Of
August, 1903, we find him making
his first appearance, performing the
leading part in popular drama at a
Belfast theater. He leaped at one
bound into the very forefront of
popularity. and it is said that on
one occasion when he turned i'll the
whole nation awaited with feverish
anxiety the different bulletins
which were regularly issued to tell
of young Betty's condition.
The boys first appearance in
Glasgow, which happened in May,
1904, created unparalleled enthusi-
asm in the city during the several
nights he performed in the now
long defunct Dunlop Street theater.
The enormous crowds. that focked
to see the wonderful boy were un-
precedented in the theatrical histo-
ry Of st. Mungo, and hundreds, it
is said, were nightly injured in the
great crush and desperate struggle
for admission to the theater. In
Edinburgh, where the boy actor
afterward appeared, the same enor-
nous crowds rushed to see him. To
enc 81 ths se l9ss ss45 paper =
fame" His subsequent appearance
at the world famous Drury Lane
completed the prodigy's triumph,
for it was not long before the me-
tropolis also succumbed to young
Bettys magnetic acting.
But Master Betty's stage. success
was comparatively short lived. In
the course of a few years he-or
his parents-compiled an immense
fortune, and with the wealth thus
speedily accumulated the young ac-
tor was given the chance of first
ciass eiuccss tiea- When out of his
teens the glamour of the. footighs
again appeared to have appesled to
him, and he again made bid to
regain his position as a popular
idol. BY this time, however, the
people had quite forgotten their
former hero, and young Betty had
to rest content with only very or
dinary degree of success. He had,
SO to speak, overstayed his welcome.
