dered it. With face as sincere as 1 have
ever seen, she replied that it was for the

The New York Evening Sun. referring to
Julia Arthurs misfortune in the Detroit
Opera House fire last week, says:
When it is said that this production cost
over $4,000 before the curtain rose on the
first performance. some idea of Miss
Arthur loss can be gathered. Only once
before have the fates been SO unkind to
new star. and that was the day in the early
eighties when Mrs. Langtry and her man
ager, Henry E. Abbey. stood in the window
of a Broadway hotel and watched the burn
ing of the Park Theater, in which that very
night she was to have made her American
debut. But Mrs. Langtry's loss compared
to Miss Arthur's was almost trivial. She
was using the stock scenery of the theater,
and therefore lost only her wardrobe. Miss
Arthur's entire production has been wiped
out, but the pluck which she ard her
brother are showing in this emergency will
enable the young star to rise phoenix-like
from the ashes
the rather remarkable fact that Mrs. Fran
ces Hodgson Burnett did not go to Detroit
to see the first performance Of her play ana
Mr.. Townsend; her colloborator, was
obliged 10 respond alone TO the calls OF the
audience for the author. In Detroit, as well
as here, Mrs. Burnetts absence was re-
garde6 as rather significant. The general
impression was that Mrs Burnett was sun
in a huff with Miss Arthur and her brother
because they objected to her interfering
with the legitimate work of the stage man
ager during rehearsals of the play Wnen
the squabble between Mrs. Burnett ana
Mr.. Lewis began it was noticed that broad
grin Illuminated the faces of the members
of the Lyceum Stock Company. IL may pc
that they were recalling their own expert
ences with the author when The worst
Gentleman of Europe was in rehearsal az
the Lyceum last year. However, tnat Is
neither here nor there. NO matter now
strained the relations between MISS Arthur
and Mrs Burnett may be at present their
quarrel had nothing to do with Mrs. Bur
nett's absence from the first night. IL was
duty in the stern form of monthly maya
zine that made Mrs. Burnett an unwilling
absentee from that distinguished occasion.
So absorbed had she become IN the prep
arations for the play that she had alinost
forgotten that she was under CONTRACT 70
give one of the monthles the hrst halI OF
a new serial by Oct l. Last week, Wnen
the managers of the magazine sent 10 mrs
Burnett they found, to their horror, that
she was Just starting on ChapttT l. IL was
one of those occasions on which bank ac-
count is made to speak louder than words.
A peremptofy message was sent TO Mrs.
Burnett saving that if the entire story were
not completed by Oct Is the customary rat
check would not be forthcoming and the
contract might be considered off.

RAIN, MUD AND HIGH PRICES
Incidents of Life at Skaguay, One of
the Gates to the KIondiIxe.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
ANDERSON, Ind, Oct. ia letter re-
ceived to-day from C. ]. Rozelle, of this
city, who is in Skaguay for the rainy sea-
son, is very interesting. In speaking of the
weather, he says it had been raining stead
lily from the goth of July there only being
four clear days in all of that time. Mud
is six feet deep in places and there is one
section of the trail that is corduroyed with
horses carcasses. The animals have sunk
IN the mud and could not get out. Others
nave died from disease and have been
placed there. He says the rainy season will
continue until February, when the heavy
SHOWS will let them proceed. AT present the
pass is so muddy that a party four miles
up, Of which Clarence GarVey of Cincn-
natl, is a member, can hardly be heard
from once month. In speaking of prices
ne says that "hapjackS" command the good,
stiff price of 81 apiece Flour sells for $15
a sack oats, $40 a sack; horseshoe nails,
25c apiece. Skaguay has become a town of
four hundred frame buildings for the Win
ter, but by April there Will be nothing left.
is rivalry between Skaguay and Dyea for
population honors, with the latter in the
lead. They have started a graveyard at
Skaguay and a respondent fellow and girl
blew out their brains to give it a start.
News has reached Skaguay that the Cana
dian government has decided to levy 20 per
cent. on all provisions over $3.50 and exempt
clothing. Rozelle says there is plenty of
snow on the other side of the pass, and If
they could get over they could go far into
the interior, but mud blocks the way.
