PUTTING ON THE MAKEUP.
How Stage People CleverIy Disguise
for Parts

The ability to disguise the face by
liberal use OF cosmetics, grease paint and
hair rope has been carried TO such degree
OF perfection by some actors that it has
acquired the dignity of an art, and has been
named the art OF makeup " said Franklyn
FyleS, the uranlauc critic OF the New Ork
sun, ana author of - The Girl Left Behind
Me- who sat in the lobby of the Arlington
Hotel last night.
Probably lne master of the art. at least
in America, is Wilton Lackaye, whose
nlaryeiouS lmitation OF Du Maurier's hyp-
motto villain sve1gaii, in the play of Trilby,'
is acknowledged as the most complete and
most satisfying effort in this direction.
In Little Christopher there are two
young men, Willie Collier and Alexander
Clark, who have mastered the art almost
10 the extent of Lackaye, who, by the way,
is also young man; neither one of the trio
being yet thirty years of age, and Mr.
CIark, VINO, in a most remarka ole makeup
assumes the character OF an octogenarian, is
only twenty-four.
Collier In his part of O'Hooligan, the
Irish detective, in Little Christopher is
called upon to take nine different 0isguises
by the exigencies of the plot, and SO well
does he assume them, that several times
during the performance, it is only his line.
They'll never know ME noW," that dis
closes his identity.
I'm a conversation the other night on the
subject Mr.. Collier said: The real secret of
the art OF making up can never be taught
any more than the art of painting, except
Its mere rudlmenls, such as the mixture of
colors and the method of laying them on
must have the eye and artistic sense of
painter, but of painter of ene broad
school. An effort al disguise that looks
well close by, in the immediate foreground.
will look totally different and lack force
when seen across the footlights. Then
again, the same lines on one face will pro-
duce an entirely different effect from what
they would on another. Every actor must
study his own features carefully before
he can become makeup artist" even
IL he have the gift, without which he can
never achieve any degree OF greatness.

made. They must be long suffering. patient

Sometimes they become actors, probably

Some time ago it was suggested to the
Secretary of the Treasury that much gold
and representatives of gold were received
in the ordinary course of business In the
various postoffices of the United States,
and that If this gold or gold representatives
were placed in government repositories in
stead of being paid away again, 1t would
help the Treasury gold reserve.
This suggestion being embodied In cir
cular to postmasters, issued by authority
of the Postmaster General, has resulted In
the following information:
The gold received per month In the first
and second class offices amounted to $780,
44S. The estimated gold receipts per an
mum for all offices is $7,113.C00.
I California leads in monthly gold receipts
with $91, ,142; other States receiving over
81 900 per month were: Missouri, S27,-
095; Ohio, $25, ,50s; Pennsylvania, $21,-
179; Iowa, SCOTS; Texas, $l9. $40; L.
linois, $l7,7S2; Minnesota, Sic, ,967; Ne
braska, $13,210; Washington State, So,
92S; New York, $S,063; Indiana, ST ,334;
Wisconsin, S6 81 8; Colorado, Sc, ,446; Utah,
$6,333: Oregon, $5,712; Kansas, $5,3s5;
Michigan, $4,e74; Georgia, So, ,44S; Massa-
chuSetts, 81, Sal; Kentucky, S1,G53; New
Jersey, $1,054; Virginia, $1,0o5.
ALL GOES TO BANKS.
Many postmasters deposited their gold
In United States subtreasuries, but such
deposits are generally made by drafts
purchased from banks, as the subtreasuries
will not accept lightweight gold coins at
their face value, so that the gold really
finds its way to the banks, and OF TO the
subtreasuries.
Many postmasters, particularly In the
Western and Northwestern States, suggest
that it would be possible for them TO make
all remittances in gold, if the government
would bear the loss for lightweight
coins"
The total estimate of gold received is
thought to be under stated In consequence
OF the difficulty OF separating the money
order accounts from ordinary postoffice
receipts.
With all withdrawals out, the Treasury
gold reserve at the close OF business yester-
daystoodatSl0 03 $50, ,646. The Withdrawals
for the day were S247 500.
This is the first time since September Z,
1895, that the gold reserve has been intact.

MINOR DISTRICT ITEMS.

Carlisle Says 1t viii Take About
S47O,OOO

The Secretary of the Treasury yesterday
forwarded TO the House a statement rela-
tive to the United States postoffice bui.d-
ing now being erected here.
1t is estimated that $355.Ooo viii be
necessary TO complete the building as now
designed. Besides this sum there is a
balance of $37e,729 remaining from the
$2,000.cG0 originally appropriated.
In addition to the sum of 1886, 900
asked, $65.000 VIII be required to pro-
vide the building with an independent light
and power plant, ard $50, 900 for carry
ing out a contemplated change in the
plan of the six upper stories, by which
additional office room viii be made
available.
Thus the sum OF $4,000 will be neces-
sary to complete the building.
