WARFIELD TELLS OF FIRST
America's Richest Actor Describes How' He Failed as Elocutionist at Age
Visions of Conquest Faded Away.
BY DAVID WARFIELD.
Iwas 18 years old a number of years
ago. At 18 it seems that the world
should be conquered before 20, when
one gets old. After 20 well, at 18
one hates to think of the declining
years that must soon begin. There
really was nothing more for me to
learn. I was a man. and my boyhood
days were left behind. I had gone to
school more or less regularly, and I
had seen the world. Indeed, I was -18!
My mother had trained me properly;
and all her honest admonitions about
honesty, virtue and bravery were but
newly implanted. The days of Horatio
Alger were distinct, o. A. Henty was
not far away, and Jules Verne and
Dumas were only recently laid aside
When one is filled with health, 18
years. Jules Verne and Alexander
Dumas, It would be folly to wait for
any world-conquering.
Long before I had reached the age
of wisdom which, as I have' already
made clear, is at 18 years I had de
termined that the world of "-conquests
would be the mimic one. In that
earlier period, the golden agre of boy
dreams that only echool books could
cloud, I had formed an ambition to be
an actor. How it came I am not quite
sure. I think it came lightly, tenderly,
on a moonbeam. There were so many
beautiful dreams in those days, all
going as quickly as they came, that it
is difficult to place the one we some
times call inspiration. And. in truth, I
do not remember one being more beau
tiful than another. They all seemed to
blend together in one glorious irides
cent glow. And this warming light,
that only the Imagination of youth
can kindle, never failed to comfort
when school drudgery brooded, strife
sickened and poverty embittered.
It was one afternoon in the school
room, some years before I was 18, that
I received my first inspiration to act.
I was impressed and moved or perhaps
inspired by a poem. The class that
afternoon read Gray's "Elegy" and
Bryant's "Thanatopsis." I have read
greater poems since, and I have per
haps enjoyed others more, but no ex
ample of literature has left the im
pression created by the poems men
tioned. I was an impressionable youth,
and I had come into the school-house
that day after a stolen morning spent
In the fields and woods, livery line of
the "Elegy" ' and "Thanatopsis." as
our teacher, an elocutionist, read them,
stirred me. I went home that afternoon
with my reader under my arm, and at
night I earnestly recited to my mother,
who listened with motherly love, if not
with the artistic appreciation I thought
my reading demanded. I knew Booth
could not have extracted more beauty
from the lines. I thought if I only
had a chance to recite to Mr. Daly or
Mr. Irving I should have been engaged
at once for the most important roles
in their companies.
Several years passed before my op
portunity came. I still loved the
"Elegy" and "Thanatopsis," and would
spout the poems to anyone who was.
kind enough to listen. I did not know
there was a David Belasco at the time,
or he would not -have escaped, for then,
he. too. lived in my native city, San
francisco.
A benefit for a local charity was an
nounced for one Christmas afternoon,
ana I soon learned that volunteers were
wanted. Although some prominent
actors who were then playing in town
were on the bill, I was not daunted,
but with the assurance of one whose
laurels were already won. I presented
myself for charity anJ my little am
bition. I had more confidence at 18.
before -my first appearance, .than I have
BRIDGE PLAN SAFE
Council Adopts It and Will Send
Man to Capital.
UNCLE SAM TO CONSENT
Councilman Menefee Likely to Go
to Washington and Secure AVar
Department's Approval of
Broadway Bridge Plan.
, Plans for the proposed Broadway
high bridge were formally approved
by the City Council yesterday after
noon, at the instance of Councilman
Menefee, who introduced a resolution
to that effect. It was unanimously
adopted. This asserts the "power of the
city to proceed with the span independ
ently of the Port of Portland.
The Port of Portland Commission
having acknowledged by formal action
that the power vested by the people of
the city in the. Executive Board is su
perior to that vested in the Commis
sion by the Legislature, it is proposed
by the Mayor and Council to proceed
at once and carry the matter before
the War Department, which is the only
authority now to be consulted before
actual work on the span can be com
menced. Mayor Simon is urging the dispatch
ing of some personal representative ot
the city to Washington for the purpose
of getting into touch with the Secre
tary of War and having the depart
ment facilitate the decision on the
bridge. Councilman Menefee, who has
all along been a stalwart friend of the
project, is the most probable man for
the place. He has been asked by the
Mayor to go, but the matter has not
yet been decided.
Charles W. Fulton, ex-United States
Senator, is also talked of for the trip
but" it is known that he is very busy
here in his law practice, and he may
not be able to get away, at least on
short notice. It is argued that, if he
could go, it would be of material as
sistance, as he "knows the ropes" at
the National capital, and it is believed
one familiar with the situation there
could do better work than one unin
itiated. -
Action by the City Council yesterday
decides the point as to where the West
ern terminus of the span will be. Sev
enth street is designated, and this will
save a considerable sum of money, ae
it will obviate the necessity of purchas
ing a right of way through a small
block to get a landing-place at Sixth
and Glisan streets, as de'signed by Con
sulting Engineer Modjeski.
There is also to be taken up soon the
question of rights of way across the
O. R. & N. and the Terminal yards or
either side of the Willamette River
This-will probably be done at once.

only regret was that Mr. Irving or Mr.
Booth was not present. I have since

would not have made me hesitate, be
