THE CHORUS MAN.

His Income Is Moderate, But He Sees
Much of the World.
The chorus girl has had the calcium
light Of attention thrown upon her for
ages, but the poor chorus man has been
neglected. He goes through life care
fully concealed behind a double row of
chorus girls, singing his little life away,
and no one gives his future life SIN
gle thought.
w. II. Macdonald. of the Bostonians,
has lifted the veil which screens the
chorus man in obscurity. and speaks
of his genesis in this way:
''Of course I will have to begin with
the chorus mans advent in OPERA"
said he. land I will state at the start
that the chorus man collectively pos
sesses more than average intelligence.
He is not, as a rule, however, a man
who has devoted his early life to a
study OF music, with determination
Of entering upon an operate career.
Most Of them are young men who
have studied music in perfunctory
way, and are the possessors Of good, if
not developed voices, which their many
friends tell them should be heard upon
the stage. The majority Of then.haye
been engaged in clerical work. and
have tired of life of commercial rou-
tine. If their salary is a small one, say
Sc or IS per week, the $40 week or
more they can get doing chorus work
looks as big to them as a Himalayan
mountain,
But even when this impression has
been dissipated by whole lot Of IN
comfortable real conditions, the chances
are that these men will continue in
their new work rather than turn their
faces toward a business life again, and
no doubt most of them are more or less
tainted with Bohemianism. and are not
fitted for commercial pursuits. Doubt
less a desire to see the country, as the
phrase goes, is responsible for a num-
Der of them joining an opera company,
and most Of these are there to-day, see
ing it over and over again"
But what does the future hold in
store for these men when their voices
are gone? Isn't their outlook rather
hopeless?" was asked.
1T depends upon the man himself to
provide against the inevitable. While
most of them are improvident, I know
of conspicuous instances Of individual
thrift. With proper care the chorus
man can keep his voice-his wage earn
er-for a great number Of years. We
have men in the Bostonians who have
been with us for nearly fifteen years,
sober, thrifty men, good, I hope for
many years more. 1t is very common
for a chorus man to marry a chorus
girl, and by little care in their do
nestle economy and small emergency
fund, be provided against the pro.
