The Theatsr I'm Franco.

The theater absorbs much of the lite
rary talent of France, this department
being more lucrative than any other.
The playwrights of Paris, during the
representation of one of their plays,
receive from ten to twelve per cent, on
the gross receipts, which vary from three
to seven thousand francs night. TAX
ing five thousand as an average ten per
cent. would give to the author five hun
dred dollars per night. Other terms, a
trihe lower, exist for the provincial thea
ters, regulated and enforced by the Soci-
etc des Auteurs Dramatiques ct Com
positeurs de Musique. Thus the author
is sometimes in receipt of his percent
age from several theaters at the same
time. He is also the recipient Of small
profit from the sale of the printed play.
The author of the one-act farce with
which the performance usually begins
receives two per cent. Of the whole re-
ceipts, ten being for the author of the
principal piece. M. Sardou's plays are
generally of such length that they do
not admit of the farce; hence he is paid
the twelve per cent.-the amount al
lowed for the whole evenings perform
ance. This privilege is only accorded to
two or three of the most successful au-
thors. NJ. Sardou has made from his
plays as much as $40, 900 year.
1t is now a much more lucrative busi-
ness than formerly. Scribe, who is cited
as the most successful playwright of his
time, received for one of his pieces in
1872 one hundred francs, in 1916 one
hundred and fifty for another entitled
L'Ecole de Village" and two hundred
for the " "Comte Dry" in 1918 four hun.
dred for the "Visite Bedlam," and
three thousand for Valerie" The
price continued to advance until, in
1884 he was paid twenty thousand francs
for the Passion Secrete," which was
considered at that time something fabu-
lous in the way of remuneration. The
Menteur" of Corneille probably never
reached such figure as this M. Sardou
realizes from popular play something
in the neighborhood of one hundred and
fifty thousand francisco, 000
The dramatic authors of France are
indebted Tor the prices which they now
receive in great measure to the ex-
istence of the association into which
they have formed themselves-La So
ciete des Auteurs Dramatiques ct Com
positeurs de Musique-which is like a
trades union, advancing the interests
and defending the rights of each indi-
vidua member. Naturally, all the
| playwrights of France are members OF
this association, the affairs of which are
managed by selected committee of fif-
teen, the committee appointing two oil
their number as president and secretary

anteed that, no matter what their reply
was, their lives should not be forfeited.
Having been reassured on this point,
they then replied that they saw every
thing dark except the streets Of Coo
massie, which ran with blood. Coffee
Calcalli was dissatisfied with the vague
ness of this reply, and determined to
appeal still further to the oracle. He
resorted to what he considered final
and conclusive test. Two he goats were
selected, one entirely black, the other of
spotless white color, and after due
Fetish ceremonies had been performed
over the two goats they were set at each
other. The white goat easily overcame
and killed his opponent. Coffee Cal
cali, after this test, was satisfied that
he was doomed to defeat at the hands of
the white men. He Immediately sent
the embassy to Sir Garnet Wolseley to
seek for peace.

vide them with point, they become some
what obtrusive. Nevertheless, as the
testers come daily, with hop, skip, jump
and somersault, before the public, it is
plain they amuse, and amuse, to week

same musty tricks. the same stale gibes,

But when the humorist, mounting the
rostrum and doffing the mask, speaks
from his undisguised personality, he
loses the old coigne of vantage and en-
counters novel drawbacks. His actual
phiz may be anything but funny-like
Pantaloon's with the daubs off; his
voice may be-generally is-weak,
husky, harsh, or squeaky his gestures
may be awkward, his whole manner un-
pleasing and since no art can make the

the Ashantee War,

In letter from Sierra Leone, publish
ed in the London Times, we read: There
are many curious stories aaoat about the
King of Ashantee's proceedings now
that his territory is being invaded. The
following is fair specimen of them, and
illustrates well the extreme superstitioa
of the Ashantees, showing by what in
luenees Coffee Calcalli is popllarly sup
posed to be guided, and on what couD-
selors he is supposed to rely in the pres
ent crisis. Coffee Calcalli, the story
goes, recently summoned a great meeting
of his Fetish men, and sought their advice
as to how he should act toward the Eng
lish. whether he ought to seek fer peace
or stake his fortunes on the result Of the
war. The Fetish men at first declined
TO give answer until they had been guar

mark Twain on the Duchess of
Edfnburg.

Mark Twain, in his Innocents
Abroad" thus describes the Duchess of
Edinburg as she appeared seven years
ago:
During the imperial reception who
ever chose stepped forward and spoke
with the modest little Grand Duchess
Marie, the Gear daughter. She is four
teen years old, lighthaired, blue eyes,
unassuming and pretty. Further on
the historian says of the Grand Duchess:
She had no heels on her shoes.
l was glad to observe that she wore her
own hair, plated in thick braids at the
back of her head, instead Of the un-
comely thing they call waterfall, which
is about as much like water
fall as a canvass-coyered ham IS
like a cataract. Taking the kind
expression that is in the Emperor s
face. and the gentleness that is
in his young daughters into considera-
ton, | wondered if it would not tax the
Cars frmness to the utmost to con-
denim supplicatiBg wretch to misery in
the wastes of Liberia if she pleaded for
him. Every time their eyes met, | saw
more and more what power that weak,
difident schoolgirl could WELD if she
choose to do it. Many and many
time she might rule the auteerat of Rus
sia, whose lightest word is law to seven
tv millions of people. She was only q
girl and she looked like a thousand
others I have seen. but never girl pro-
voked such a novel and peculiar interest
in me before. A strange, new sensa-
ton is a rare thing in this humdrum life,
and | had it here"
