I was thinking today as I was riding
down from New York Of the time when
1 approached New York entirely un-
known. hattered myself, after a more
or less successful period on the Pacific
Coast, that 1 really amounted to some
thing theatrically, but somehow all the
Ofices seemed closed to me and in a few
months I was compelled to go back to
the West. Incidently believe that dur
ing the trip back I sustained life on Is
cents worth OF doughnuts and four apples.
But success is a funny thing. The
ladder Is not 50 hard to climb as it is to
find 1t is like cropping about in the
dark, reaching out in all directions and
encountering nothing but space until,
through accident or maybe tenacity, you
catch the bottom rung. Then, don't you
see, 1t Is the most natural thing in the
world to climb upward. hand over hand.
And there is no top to the ladder Of sue
cess. You can always add another rung.
Il love plays Of the type Of the Little
Lady in Blue The CindepeIla Man chow
I wish had gotten that one) and Marie
OdiIe.' They are pure gems and I would
rather break even on producing their
like than to make a million on something
lUrid and sordid
Il have made and lost several fortunes
by maintaining the standards Of holding
the confidence Of the public, but do not
regret one cent Of my losses, for the
public as a whole is reasonable and has
been good to me.
But money, after all, is not the only
measure Of success-in fact, care very
little for II except for my studio. By
the way, you must come to see the studio
when you are in New York If there
is one subject on which I am intemperate
it is that studio. Why, 1t keeps me broke
all the time. Every spare cent goes into
it, but it is the greatest retreat in the
world and I often lock myself in there

AL reeves PLEASES
AUDIENCE At GAYETY
Comedian and His Beauty Show Score
Real Hit.

Al Reeves and his beauty show are
back at the Gayety this week That is
what all say who enjoy burlesque, but
what they really mean is that his extra
ordinary company of burlesquers are
there and all that the house could seat
showed their appreciation of his return
by their presence last night
This show. written, staged and produced
by Mr.. Reeves. is an improvement over
all former productions. With its variety
Of clever acts, attractive settings, and its
constant opportunities to laugh there is
no chance to lose interest throughout the
entire show. The wardrobes are ex-
quisite and the chorus clever and talent
ed.
The show Is staged in three scenes,
Mime. Rosenbergs Fashion Parlors,
Chinatown at midnight, and the banquet
hall in the Reeves mansion
Miss Leona Miller, soubrette, did her
self proud in every scene, and especially
when she leads her minstrel chosus of
girls through several catchy songs. She
was also the only girl member Of the
quartet known as the "Al Reeves Enter
tainers," which proved a decided hit of
the evening"
Mr.. Reeves has, in Charles Robels, a
comedian who stands out from the others
in his class. Payton and Green, the
tumblers, hit the floor in so many differ
ent ways the house would hardly allow
| them to leave. Viola Cavanaugh and Jerry
White stage a speciality act of singing
dancing and plano playing that was
| greatly appreciated. Pagana, the talent
| ed violinist, held the entire house while
she played several selections Of melody
and ragtime.
The whirlwind dancers, Eddy and Earl
| gave some active moments in the first
! and second acts. Miss Taber and Miss

WATER FOR AUTO FUEL

Louis Enricht of Farmingdale. l..
l., runs an automobile on water.
Or at least he says he does. And sew
eral supposedly normal, hardhesded
business men who have seen him
give a demonstration are convinced
that he does what he claims. He
simply draws five gallons of water
out of any convenient water pipe,
drops into it four ounces of a myster-
ious greenish fluid. pours the mix
ture into his gasoline tank. and off
goes the machine, with the motor
never missing an explosion. He Essays
the chemical he uses is so common
and cheap that the new fuel only
costs a cent a gallon.
If this is not hocus-pocus, Enficht
has made a discovery that is literally
worth billions of dollars. and destined
to confer incalculable benefits on the
human race. He has provided not
merely a means of running gas en-
gines cheaply. at the very time when
the high price of gasoline has made
it particularly welcome. He has
given the world a permanent source
of power far cheaper and more ac-
cessible than any o existing. 1t is
no exaggeration to say that such a
discovery is greater than that of
steam power, for the use of steam
depends on coal, which is expensive
and exhaustible. There is plenty of
water.
Unfortunately, this is probably a
hoax or a dream. The known laws
of science are against it. Fuel ex-
perts scott at it. Water, to be sure,
is two-thirds hydrogen; and that n.y.
drogen, when separated, is highly
explosive. But chemists insists that
it is bound to take, under ideal con-
ditions, at least as much expenditure
of energy to separate the hydrogen
from its combination with oxygen as
the hydrogen can give back after
ward in burning or exploding. They
insist that there is no substance in
existence, a little of which. poured
into water will cause this separation
as Enricht says it does, breaking up
the water and giving the pure hydro
gen to explode in the gas chamber
of the engine like gasoline vapor.
And yet science has been wrong
before.

Kills ElkO Man

The Elko Independent says that Hi
Robinson, who was bitten by a rabid
coyote last Fall, recently died with
the rabies on the Diamond A desert
near the Nevada-Idaho line.
Last Fall Robinson was bitten on
the face by a rabid coyote while he
laid out in the sagebrush west of
Elko on the Tuscarora road. He had
been drinking to a considerable ex-
tent, and with others started home.
When some distance out of town his
companions turned back. but he
made his bed in the sagebrush and
during the night he was attacked by
a rabid coyote. He received a lacera-
ton on the face, but he ridiculed the
idea of rabies among the coyotes and
refused to return for the Pasteur
treatment. He continued on his way
to the Diamond A desert, where he
developed the dread disease and died.
His death occurred some time ago,
but word of it was only recently
brought to Elko through Charles
Howard, the sheepman.
