STAGE EARNINGS.
What the Season just Closed Has
Brought to the Stars.

William Gillette has gained more
money than any other person on the
American stage this season, says a
manager in Everybody's Magazine
That isn't saying he drew more into
the theatre, but his income combined
that of the author of the play he used
the star actor of the leading role, and
half the profits of the business enter
prise. No doubt the aggregate was
$1,000 week for forty weeks. and it
may have been much more. l be-
lieve that the most remunerated dozen
American actresses during the same
season We're, in the order l name them,
Maude Adams, Leslie Carter, Julia
Marlowe, Minnie Madden Fiske. Olga
Nethersole, Viola Allen. May Irwin,
Annie Russell, Mary Mannering, Ethel
Barrymore, Ada Rehan and Henrietta
crosman. l am sure that Miss Adams
came first, Mrs. Carter second, and
Miss Marlowe third in earnings, If not
in their individual shares. Miss Adams
and Mrs. Carter We're made stars of by
their manager, and no outsider knows
the terms of the contracts, but l fancy
that each actress is between $50, 900
and $4,000 better off than she was a
year ago
Miss Marlowe controls her own busl-
ness, and all the profits of it accure 10
her alone-so ii is possibl, that she
goes ahead cf either of the others
in money for her own bank account.
Miss Nethersole, too, is her own man
aser, but her season was shortened
by illness and under stand that she
got out with about $4,000 Mrs. Fiske's
case battles estimate owing to peculiar
circumstances, and how far up to-
wards the top of the list her name
belongs is hard To say. She had a
difference as to terms with the syndi-
cate that controls most of the first
grade theatres of the country, and
through which practically all the sue
cessful stars of the first magnitude
make their routes. AS she divides
with no manager, it is possible that
she stands fifth in the list, or even
fourth, among the female stars with,
say. $4,000 to $4,000 Miss Irwin is
thrifty and invests shrewdly. Viola
Allen was in only the second season
under her first contract, and Annie
Russell, Mary Mannering and Ethel
Barrymore were still newer as stars,

conclusion reached Just before the
famous race or 100 and emphasized by
that event itsclf-the conclusion that
the boating mentors of the two insti-
tutions are pretty nearly unit alike
as to theory and practice. 1t was pre-
dlcted some years ago that the time
would arrive when practically identi-
cal systems and methods of rowing
would prevail at these two institutions.
Before the great race of last year it
was remarked that the two crews We're
rowing practically the same stroke.

ed between the two colleges-argued
logically for the soundness of this
proposition. The two eishts did row
strokes almost identical and with a
skill which made the contest for three
and half miles hair-raising. The
outcome of the race after the col
lapse of the Harvard stroke, Harding,
was, of course the natural one and
Yale took the victory because her shell
was manned by an eight of more power
and endurance than that of the young
oarsmen who represented Harvard.

fewer candidates than Harvard. About
rs men responded to Captain Blagden's
call. AS usual, there We're several
class crews and several class races, but
with a veteran nucleus of three men
and the presence in college of several
men of known rowing ability Il Var
Sity squad was, by common consent,
detached from the main body of candi-
dates, and this squad changed in per-
sonnel only when particularly promis-
ing material developed among the
other candidates. Coach Allen did not
appear until May, and his arrival was
followed by frequent changes in the
first crew. This made possible two
full eights of considerable strength and
skill. Yale reached the Thames in ad-
vance of Harvard by nearly two weeks.
Once on the river, it was supposed
that Mr.. Allen would stop the changes,
but until the last week before the race
changes were very frequent. Thus
Yale had the advantage of the services
of two sets of men, each of whom had
been given experience in the Varsity
shell.
The last ten days before the race are
being devoted to the polishing off pro-
cess. lime rows nave Dcen somewhat l
more frequent than by previous years.
This is particularly true with the iar-
ward crew, it probably having been de-
cided to be wise to give the men plenty
of stiff work beforehand, so that the
trying experience of an exhausted oar
would not be repeated.
kunziG, Cameron and RlaGden are

On the water there is very little to
choose between the two eghts. Har-
wards recovery is beautiful. and it is
much cleaner than Yale's. The Grim
son oars are also splendidly together.
The Yale shell. however, lacks the
awkward hitch which has, up to this
time, characterized the Harvard craft.
Neither crew has thus far given prom
Use of reaching to the high Stanard of
their predecessors of 1900 and unless
water conditions are unusually favor
able, the race, it is stated, will be
slower than that of last year. AS a
general proposition ii may be added
that the two crews are about equal as
to skill. Harvard seems to be more
powerful, and the prediction would
seem safe that the race will depend
largely upon question of endurance.

which the two crews have gone has
varied but little from the course of
last year. Harvard repeated her meth
ods of 1899 and 1900. Between 200 and
300 candidates appeared early in the
year in the shape of members of vari-
Gus rowing clubs. A series of races
was held and the process of elimina-
ton was worked out. This year, how
ever, the Varsity squad came out Of
the preliminary process earlier than
last year. The club races were fin
ished nearly a month earlier, and the
varsity squad was chosen in early
April The further wedding ou.. pro-
ces was continued rapidly until early
in May the probable makeup Of the
crew was well in hand. AS a result,
Harvard reached Gales Ferry with a
set of oarsmen who had been rowing
together for some time.
Three veterans of last years Har-
ward eight sit in this years shell, Shue-
bruck. Hugh Bancroft and Bullard.
At Yale, as usual, the rowing leaders
contended against the disadvantage of
