.LOTTA CRABTREE
DIES AT AGE OF II
Friends Speculate on Dis
poSaI of Wealth of Famed
Coincidence.
By the Associated PRESS

By the Associated Press
BOSTON, September 25.-The death
last night of Lotta Crabtree, actress
who danced her way to a fortune
through the mining camps of Cali
fornia and the music halls of Broad
way, left theatergoers with q sense
of loss and with a curiosity as to
what Lotta had done in disposing OF
her estate. She had promised friends
a surprise.
The actress, who died in her seven
ty-seventh year without kin, had add
ed to the profits of her theatrical en-
terprises larger sums gained in real
estate speculation in New York and
elsewhere. She owned property in
many places and her fortune has been
estimated from a million and half
dollars to three times that amount.
She will be buried next Sunday at
Woodlawn Cemetery, N. Y, beside
her brother Jack" Crabtree, who
| managed her racing stables until
his death.
Miss Crabtree died at the hotel
which she had made her Boston home
since her retirement at the height OF
her career in 1891.
She had been in failing health two
years.
Miss Crabtree went to live in Cali
fornia directly after her retirement
but soon returned to the East. In
1916 she went abroad to study art
and on her return became prom
inent member of the East Gloucester
Mass, art colony. where her work in

Crabtree sang, danced and played
herself into the hearts of the theater-
goers of a generation ago all over the
United States.
Over the bookshop which her father,
John Ashworth Crabtree. kept on
Broadway, New York, the little COM
edienne was born November z. 1847.
The bookseller was one of those who
followed the gold rush to California,
taking his family with him, and 1t
was on the Pacific coast that Lolita
scored her first childish triumphs,
She made her debut as an actress
when only six years old. At the
head of her own company, at the age
of seven, La Petite Lotta" played
one-night stands throughout the
mining region.
Lotta's mother, Mary Ann Crabtree,
was in those days, and throughout
the condolences stage career, her
constant companion, exercising so
strict a chaperonage that it was said
all suitors were frightened away.
Roughing 1t from camp to camp,
Lotta became the pet Of all, and final
