ADJUSTMENTS

The success of the Elleford Company
is one Of the well-known facts in the
atrical circles, and Manager Eileford,
who is one of the most genial men in
the profession, is to be congratulated
on his progressive spirit and enter
prise. If there is anything new in the
way of stage business or entertain
mept.~ Manager Elleford is the first to
secure if and present it to his audi
enees. He has the exclusive rights to
smany of tine big New York successes,
and is ever on the alert for the latest
and most popular attractions. Man
ager Elleford is one of the self-made
men. In recent interview, he told
of, many experiences in his early life
that throw light on his character and
show how. even at an early age, ambi-
ton was uppermost. When he was but
a little fellow in Philadelphia he was
selling papers on the street, and his
sunny smile won him many customers
in those days. Later he removed with
his parents to Dayton. Ohio, where he
had the 'position of calling the
might Waterman for one of the big
mills, situated along the river. The
watchmau went on duty at II clock,
and s'Billy.' whose duty it was to call
! him. was then lad of ten years. To
reach the Waterman. whose home was
| across the river, the how would have to
| 90 a mile down the river to cross on
/ the bridge and then up to the watch
man s home. Billy concluded there
| should be some labor saving device for
this. SO instead of going the mile down
! the river and then over the bridge. he
! would strip to the skin and swim
/ across. winter summer, and then
| run up to the watehman's house to call
| him, and swim back again. It is anus
ing to hear Manager Elleford tell this
| little story, and it ut once shows the
progressive spirit of the man who has
| achieved such success in his profession.
| At seventeen he was on the stage, and
| at twenty had his own company out.
and though he met with many obsta-
cles. nothing discouraged him, and to-
days prosperity is ample testimony to
| his undaunted courage. The Elleford
Company opens at the Orpheum Mon
