author, actor and manager, Charles Foster,
who has written hundreds of plays in his
time, none of which was ever a dead fail
ure. On being asked whether play writing
was profitable Mr.. Foster ran his fingers
through his heavy white locks and replied:
s'That depends, my boy, I have been writ
ing plays all my life, and am not mil
ionaire as yet. A great deal depends on
the public. If play happens to please
theater-goers the manager keeps it run
ming, and if the author has agreed to take
royalty he may coin great deal of
money from his creation
"What amounts have you been paid for
plays?" ''Various sums. For one 1 re-
ceived $4,000; Others $4,000, others $4,000,
ana some 1 sold at $1,000, AS to royalty,
have had plays pay me as high as $3.50 a
week, while others would bring me but $50.
Prices vary from SO for each perform
ance to $25, the latter being the average
price received"
Leaving the veteran author to evolve the
plots of other dramas, the reporter entered
the cosy Office of Brooks & Dickson, the
dramatic agents, and proceeded to inter-
view Sheldon Bateman. ''We receive at
least two hundred plays every year," said
Mr.. Bateman, with requests to read and
produce them, but most of them are the
veriest gush. AS to the profits arising
from play-writing, can say that some
authors have made large amount of
money from their dramatic productions.
just at present recall Col. Sellers, which
was very successful and which Melted Mark
Twain, its author, about 100000. This
is, perhaps, an exception, but I know of
many others which have largely benefited
the authors. may cite The 1.-TWO Or
phans," which was adopted from the
French by Hart Jackson. There is quite a
story connected with that drama. When
Mr.. jackson had completed it he carried
the manuscript to manager after manager
twenty at least, but none of them
thought it worthy of notice. Even SO sa-
gacious manager as Mr.. Palmer failed to
see any drawing capacity in it, and Jack
son cluded that he had made q mistake.
One day Mrs. Palmer, desiring to read
French, picked up the drama, and its
beauty attracted her attention. She spoke
so highly of it that Mr.. Palmer read it for
a second time, when he made up his mind
that there was something in it after all.
He produced it, and by SO doing enriched
his treasury greatly, and Mr.. jackson was

spain and England

Madrid, 1.-The Spanish govern
ment holds that the leaders of the
G Iban Instruction on landing at
Gibraltar, ware put outside of the
British lines through the mistake of
the police magistrate, as they were
then Immediately arrested by the
Spanish authorities. Government
claims these refugees were conse-
quently prevented from entering
Gibraltar at all through not being
provided with passports. They were
in fact arrested on Spanish soil, in
Spanish territory and by duly exer-
cised Spanish authority. They were
not, and had not, been in English
jurisdiction. These facts were fully
brought out at meeting of the
council of ministers over which
King Alphonso presided, and de-
cision was reached that the Cubans
should not be surrendered to the
British authorities at Gibraltar.

Washington. "A notice was

for performing temporary mall
service between Riverside and
Cotton, California. POSTMASTER
General Howe has made an order
giving postmasters discretion IN
returning letters to writers upon
application, and the production OF
proof. Heretofore this power was
vested only in the postmaster
general.
Commissioner Mcfarland, Of the
general land Office, is in receipt OF
information that in fifty-five cases
of fraudulent pre-emptiOE tried In
Northern Minnesota, not one of the
pre-emptors appeared in the hear,
ing and the cases were declared in
favor of government by default
This is gratifying to the depart
ment and Mcfarland thinks the
show beyond question the existence
of conspiracy to defraud govern
ment.
