John Drew makes in good times 500
week A competent leading man or wo-
man, like Henry Miller or Herbert Kelley,
Viola Allen or Isabel Irving, can be had for
$500 a week. The only player that has ever
received, even in this prodigal country, a
salary equal to that Of Bernhard was
Nine. Modjeska. Edwin Booth, who knew
nothing about the value of money, once
engaged the Polish actress at a salary of
81, 800 a week. Mr. Grau's contract with
Guilbert lasted only two weeks, after which
he returned to the cheap prices of Paris.
Calves contract lasted five months, but
during that time she sings only twice or
three times week, after which she re-
turns to the moderate salaries of Europe
Melba receives 81 $50 a night in this coun-
try, but in Paris is content with $500 a per-
performance. But Sarah Bernhardts con-
tract continues through summer and win
ter, and every Saturday night she pockets
$3.50. Taking one thing with another, the
actress is better off than the singers. Av-
eraging the entire income of each perform
ance, we should say that Calve earns
$4,000 year. Guilbert about So, 600 while
Bernhard is sure Of $4,000 annually for
five years.

A BARBnRs COLLEGE.
The Art Of Shaving Fhusht for q
Modest Fee!

oAO~SSS y SSs
New York Letter
Gotham has a unique educational insti-
tuition. 1t is ''barbers' COLLEGE," which
was opened about two months ago. 1t is
evidently grinding out graduates, for pa
irons of uptown tonsorial parlors, who
postpone shaving until Sunday mornings,
Invariably find new faces at CHAIRS that
are conspicuously idle during 1.-the week.
Sometimes the same man appears at these
vacant chairs two successive Sundays The
BARRIERS college, is to be- found not far
from the Leonard street police station, and
close to Washington market and the docks.
1t consists of large and plainly furnished
apartment on the first floor of modern
business building. In one corner of the
room Is a box resembling the gallery tier
in cheap theater Most of the day it is
crowded with men and boys very unkempt
waiting turn for the collegians to practice
on them. West street furnishes an abun-
dance of raw material. There are about
one hundred collegians in the room hard at
work on this ma teral from Z in the morn
ing until in the evening. Most of the stu
dents are young men, not old enough to re-
quire shave Some are women. The
price of the course is $25. The students are
given permission to take extra chairs in
uptown barber shops during the rush hours
on Sunday mornings. The first half day in
the college Is spent in learning how to
hone and strop razors. Then for three days
the pupils have to shave their victims. The
rest of the course Of eight weeks is spent
in learning the intricacies of hair cutting
In year the proprietors expect to have
one hundred chairs kept busy, and to have
the school open in the evenings, as well as
by day. A Student shave" is quite the
thing now. AS practice makes perfect, the
graduates of the metropolitan BARRIERS
college, may eventually hold down the best
chairs in the biggest shops.

The Cafe Anglais is rather of the past,

Speciality sole with Norman sauce
Delicious! Wonderful! They say that
sauce is made in a special room with the
door locked"' Nonsense Four years ago it
was simply sole sauce Normande.' To-
day it is sole Marguery' or the sole of
the house., as the walters nod Importantly.
1t is simply a mussel-juce. shrimp paste
and oyster sauce done in butter and white
wine OF course, it Is good, but it is not
the only dish to take home a remembrance
of, as happens with many of our tourists.
But-and this is important-it Is the only
dish at Marguerys.
We Americans are frequently disappoint-
ed with the appearance of the rich Paris
restaurants. Like the Paris theaters, where
the money is spent on the birds and not
the cage. they are nearly all of them what
we would call dinSy and old-faS hioned
looking. Even at Cubat's, the most mod
ern, the American, fresh from the marble
halls that petrified the patriotism of Paul
Bourget. will look about him and not be
frightened; and at. Paiilards. perhaps the
smartest of them, he will smile at the dolls
house, winding stairway and tiny, private
rooms, where paint and gliding do not al
together dissmulate the moderate original
cost of the furniture and decora tions. In
some of the establishments the porcelain
and linen very fine, the silver services
solid and handsome, and the ivory-hand!ed
knives and forks real ivory. But, unless
one has a habit of noting such petty de-
tails. the first impression is that these great
restaurants look-tackey.
Without setting up for too much of an
expert, / would place the Mason Dor.r
first and Voisin's with It, in the same rank
Yet one of the most celebrated dishes of
the former is a plate Of chicken wings and
turnips. Both restaurants glory in being
old-fashioned, following the good old
French traditions" throwing no dust In
the eyes. La home marchandiae! says
Gustave. There is nothing else!" exclaims
Henry. Everything else is humbug. M.
Moures-for that is the hind name of the
World-famed Gustave-waxes eloquent on
the subject of having every ingredient Of
the very first quality.
Il can give you complicated things, but
there are some people, thank heaven, who
still like simple things. They like mack

all steak should be. potatoes chosen from
a multitude and baked until they sparkle

costs. What is more simple than a dish of

Hotel FroprietOrs Sued for Refusing
Lunch.


From the Chicago Tribune.
Mr. and Mrs. Harris and Mr.. and Mrs.
Montgomery went for a wheel ride Tues
day evening Oh Dearborn avenue. Mr..
Montgomery wore light black sack coat,
but the attorney was dressed in the knick-
erbocker. and the two women both had at
tired themselves according to the mode.
Near Lincoln Park Mr.. Harris suggested
that they partake of lunch, and the four
repaired to the plaza. Mr.. Harris says
they waited some time without being ap-
preached by waiter, whereupon he made
a gesture to one of the white-cnated at
PENDANTS.
This brought the man of the napkin but
with him also surprise. He was politely
infoI med that he could not be waited on
while in bicycle costume
This startled the attorney, but he re-
peated his order and inquired the price.
He was told $l.25, and he drew the
amount from his pocket. The waiter. how
ever. says Mr.. Harris, refused to bulge af-
attorney, remarked that $40 could not pay
for it 50 long as the party appeared in the
Objectionable bicycle attire.
The man persisted in his refusal, and
Mr.. Harris declared himself as decidedly
outraged, but il came to no satisfactory
end, and the cyclists withdrew.
Mr.. Harris has brought suit for $4,000
damages.

A BANK's GOOD WILL.
Good Standing Greatly Advances the
Price of Shares.


Price of Shares.
From the Boston Herald.
The United States Investor has given an
analysis of the financial condition of some
of the more important New York banks,
accompanied with the selling price of the
shares, and from this one is able to gather
some idea of what it is that gives value to
this form of investment The Chemical Ma
tional Bank has capital of only $500, 600,
but its surplus amounts to nearly sI,50O.0o0,
and its deposits average about seventy-four
times as much as its capital. Twice a
month its stockholders receive dividend,
which amounts in the year TO 100 per cent
that Is half again as much as the par value
of their shares. But these shares sell for
more than $1,000 each, and on the basis of
this price the dividends cannot he con-
Sidered excessive. But the curious feature
IS that If the bank went into liquidation to-
day and sold its assets, paid it's debts, and
divided the net results among it's share
holders, the latter would receive only about
$500 share for what is now sold at more
than $1,000 In other words. more than a
third of the market value of the Chemical
Bank shares is made UP of the good will
and business reputation Of the corporation.
In the case of the First National Bank,
which has a capital of $500, UdJ and a sur
plus of SI,l4I,0G0. the book vaiue of the
stock, which pays 100 per cent yearly, is
$l,523 per share, but in the market this stock
sells at about S2,SJD per share, Indicating
that nearly half of the market value of the
institution is found in its good will. a still
more striking case is that of the Fifth
Avenue Bank, which has capital of $780,
coo, a surplus of $1,oS5,00O. and deposits to
the amount of SS,202,O or eighty-two
times the amount of it's capital. In this
instance, the book value of the shares,
which pay an annual dividend of 100 per
cent, is $11s5,0O0, but, in order to purchase
a share in the open market, it is necessary
to pay more than 5000: in other words, the
good will and business standing Of the com
pany, as Indicated by its enormous deposits,
represent nearly two-th!rds of the value of
it's shares. On the other hand, the shares
of banks, such as the Shoe and Leather ard
the bridesmaids which have small reIa-
tive deposit account, in spite of the fact
that these banks have surplus, sell at less
than their par value, showing that in the
opinion of investors, the sentimental quality
of good will. apart from other considera-
tons has value even in so matter of fact a
business as banking

gold. Or peaches. Or cherries. Or aspara-
gus Or half-grown new peas, boiled in
their tender pods with cream.
Then why order a melon hors d'oeuvre
In Paris, when melons are selling-as they
were last week-for eighteen francs apiece?
And especially why order for only
two people? Wine is another feature of
expense. There are Bordeaux and Burgul-
dies at twenty. thirty and fifty dollars a
bottle. Some people think they get their
moneys worth out of them. They are
wines of special vintages back in the past.
There are only so many bottles of each in
the world. Each time a bottle Is drunk
there is one less. For one who Is not a
real amateur to commit such act is
almost like buying a blooded horse and
driving him to death on a hot afternoon.
There are many honest men who do not
know the difference between Burgundy and
Bordeaux 1t is no crime. Let them drink
champagne
This is what the maitres dhc.el of the
rich Paris restaurants tell me. A Elaitre
d'hotel is very important parsonage. You
may call him a head-waiter. But what a
head-waiter! He has been years and years

first sight. Their recital, which only takes
up a few lines of newspaper space, must

Expensive restaurants are not cheap
And a fool and his money are soon parted
Yet IT has been affirmed to me by more
than one famous maitre dnotel that 1t is
impossible for one person, and impracticabie
for two, to eat twenty dollars worth of
food in Paris. That is not so terrifying
when II is remembered that Paris is pc
culiarly a city of primenrs. Hot-house
