OLD FOLKS PUSHED ASIDE
MOnopOIIze the spOtIights
on the New York
stage.

In New York last week about 1000 per
sons. men and women, we're pretending TO
nearly 100000 more persons to be some
body other than themselves. In the var
ious theaters, in drama, musical comedy,
vaudeville and burlesque every week dur
ing the theatrical season there are fully
this many actors working. A look into en-
gagement agencies any bright afternoon
would indicate that twice as many more
were not working.
OF all the 1900 people appearing on the
stage in New York. there are compare
lively few old folks. Perhaps the aver
age age OF the women can be put at 30
and Of the men at 50. There viii always
be a demand for young actors and a de-
creasing demand for old ones. What be-
comes OF the majority for whom there is
no place or the stage is almost as much
Of a mystery as what becomes OF all the
pins. or Of Sam Weller's post boys and
donkeys. A few save money and retire, a
few go into other business and succeed,
a few marry and retire permanently from
the stage, a few suecumb, before reaching
the retiring age, to the effects Of hard
work and bad food. The very small num-
Der at the Actors Fund Home on Staten
Island, or at the Edwin Forrest Home, in
Pennsylvania, need not be considered. They
are definitely provided for. But there must
be hundred, II not thousands Of former

Scarcely a week passes but that the
play brokers receive visits from the widow
OF some one-time popular actor. who has
left no estate except the manuscripts and
rights to plays nov worthless.
These manuscripts are all they have left
20 sell, and they are unstable. one wo-
man, the widow OF a once famous come
dian. who left no asset other than his
name. has managed to make a living for
years by selling cold cream and other
cosmetics. Now and then. at very rare
intervals, some one arranges a benefit for
her. and she is able 20 take a brief rest
from her labors.
The average man in the audience is to
be excused for not considering what the
actors in front OF him are working for.
Stage life seems 10 hold so much glamour,
so many allurements, that II is hard for
an outsider to realize the struggle the life
entails. Most actors earn all they get.
Their hardest work comes when they are
not working, but trying to find something
to do. The bank clerk who finds II hard

tor, who has to persuade a good many

November OF 1887. That was in the early
days OF the South Omaha Stock yards,
but a year before the South Omaha Union
Stock yards had been established. The
few months that had interviewed we're suf-

Similar roads have been operated at Colton, Riverside and Redlands It is the usual forerunner of the cleo tric trolley, the initial expense being so much less that earning possibill- ties of the road may be fully tested before electricity is adopted as a motive power.
 The right of way for the road out side of Phoenix has been secured. It will run along the regular highways and take the most convenient route to Scottsdale. 1t will follow the Me Dowell road a part of the way and then run along the Arizona canal.
 No route within the city limits has been determined upon and no site yet selected for a terminus.
 The money raised for the establish ment of the road has been subscribed chiefly by property owners along the route The subscriptions range from s1,O00 down. The large majority be- ing either s1,OOO or $500. No large subscriptions have been made, nor are they desired, as it is the pur- pose of the company to keep the stock under control and not permit any one person to gain control ling interest in it.

Work WiII Probably Begin
 Within Three Months HALF AMOUNT SUBSCRIBED
Motor Line to Be Operated by Gasoline or Distillate, Will Be the First Country
 Car Line in the Valley.

It is quite probable that work will begin within three months on the construction of a motor line from Phoenix to Scottsdale. It has been estimated that the cost of such a line with equipment will be $125,000, and one-half of that amount has been subscribed.
 The line contemplated between Phoenix and Scottsdale is designed to tap the orange belt, to form a con- meeting link with Ingleside where a large ranch house with fifteen cot tages are being built, and to carry beets that may be grown in this section to the factory at Glendale. It is a part of the project, after the initial line Is in working order, to extend it to Glendale, and after that to reach across the river and take in Tempe and Mesa.
 The line will be known as the Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa Motor line. It will be operated by an engine run by gasoline or distillate, thus doing away with the planting of poles. The engines will be so constructed that at any time electricity may be sub stituted for gasoline. Gasoline or dis tillate motors have been in use in many places in Southern California,

BILLIARD PURCHASES
 CENTER STREET HOUSE
One of the Prettiest of the New Bungalows Recently Erected Will Be the District Attorneys Home.

One of the prettiest and most con- venient of the new houses that have been built in Phoenix within the last six months was purchased yesterday by George Purdy Bullard, the district attorney. The price is said to have been s4,75O.
 The house is on the southeast cor her of WestmOreland and Center street, and is directly opposite West moreland place, with it's park ef- fleets, which makes it one of the most desirable situations on Center street The bungalow, which was completed about two weeks ago, is somewhat different from the purely mission type. The architect, Walter J. Bickel, has introduced just touch of the Spanish in the lines of the house. It is probably as fair an example of the combination of the two styles as can be found in the city. One or two have been erected which have followed the Spanish style. In most cases it has been overdone, the archi- tect finding it difficult to adapt an architecture which is more suitable for buildings of large dimensions to

DR. FOSS' EXPERIMENTS
 IN HORT|CULT TURF
He Will Plant Twenty Acres in Geor. lia Green Bay Yams.

The first shipment of Georgia Green Bay yams into the valley for planting purposes came last week Dr. John w. Foss received three bushels of the yams, which he will plant on his ranch. The expressage on the yams was over s11, but the doctor says they are worth it.
 Dr. FOss will plant twenty acres in yams. They will be the first yams planted by any one in the valley, and probably in Arizona. The services of MT Kimbro of Alabama, who is an expert in the cultivation of this vege- table, have been secured, and he will see that they are planted and culti- vated in the manner best adapted to them.
 As far as climate and soil are con cerned. there seems no reason why yams cannot be raised just as sue cessfully, if not more so, than in GeOr- gia or Alabama. Sweet potatoes are about as much like real vans as crab apples are like apples. Specimens of Arizona sweet potatoes are pronounced by the Alabama expert as first class hog feed" He said that even the poorer classes of the south would turn up their noses at the dry and mealy sweet potato. The yam, on the con- trary. simply ooZes molasses when it is baked. and is about as succulent a vegetable as one could wish for. If the doctors horticultural experiments are successful, these vegetable cara mels will soon become an important adjunct of an Arizona Sunday dinner
