MRS. LESLIE CARTER
Her Rise as an Actress and Her
Income.
BY HILLARY BELL.

New York, Dec. 6.-Mrs. Carter left
shouldered with the wealth she carried
away. Madame Dubarry" has had an
extraordinary run in the metropolis.
1t was performed almost all last season
at the Criterion; it dedicated the Be-
lasco Theater this season, and has
every performance until, by reason of
engagements already booked on tour
Mrs. Carter was compelled to leave
town. Madame Dubarry'' has had
what may almost be termed a consec-
utive run of forty-seven weeks, or 3SS
performances, including matinees and
specials. Except on stormy nights
the Standing Room Only" sign was
in constant USE. A sum approximate
ing 100000 has been paid into the
treasury to see this remarkable play.
That amount does not represent all the
expenditure of New York on ''DuBar-
ry Advanced prices to hotel ticket
ofnces and spectators, cab hire and
after-theater suppers increase this out
lay 1t is estimated, generally, that
an evening at the play for New York
man anu MS sweetheart or VIE entails
an outlay of $10-$5 for two seats, SO
for cab, SO for supper At this rate.
which seems modest enough, it would
appear that nearly 81. O00, 900 have been
paid by New York for Madame Du-
barry" Her scenery and costumes
alone cost $S0,00O and to prepare a
fitting home for his little milliner in
the Belasco Theater, her author spent
$125, 900 in decorations and alterations
of the original design of that house.
Mrs. Carriers salary is $500 a week,
the highest remuneration ever paid
to a native actress; for during the brief
period in which she received that
amount from Henry e. Abby, Lillian
Russell was a comic opera singer. I'm
til this time the highest salary of an
American actress was 5000 a week, once
paid by Augustin Daily to Ada Rehan.

Tanquerays friends describe as the
embodiment Of purity and imbued with
a religious fanaticism which has been
transmitted to his daughter Ellean,
who has been educated at converts in
Ireland and France. Ellean has an
nounced her intention of taking her
final VOWS. Woman like. she changes
her mind. She comes to the Surrey
home. Her sweetness and purity are
a constant reprOach to Paula, a re-
minder of what might have been. To
Aubrey Tanqueray Ellean is a reincar-
nation of his first wife. His reverence
and tender solicitude for her arouse
bitter memories in Paula. provoke ner
to acrd speeches. and destroy harmony
in their home life.
The same recognition of her own de-
fects which prompts Paula to make an
ante-nuptial confession in writing, to
save Aubrey from ever regretting his
marriage to her, is a constant source
of worry. She broods over it, In de-
fiance of her hus bands gently express
ed desire that she shall not continue
an acquaintance with a former and I'M
desirable female friend, who has mar
ried a titled ralde, gambler and drunk
ard she invites both to Aubrey Tan
queray's home. Long before Aubrey's
daughter arrives from her travels on
the continent of Europe, she has re-
GREETED her action. The arrival of FL
lean, unexpectedly. her shy confession
of having fallen in love with young
officer who has been decorated with
the Victoria Cross for gallant service
in India, bring to Paua's mind most
Vividly the difference between the child
woman and herself and the friends she
has placed her in contact with.
When Capt Hugh Ardale presents
himself, sues for Elean's hand and is
recognized by Paula as a man whom
she has formerly been associated with,

with Aubrey Tanqueray does she vio-
late any law that is good or pure. She
is striving for the best She is not
brutal, stupid nor offensive She Is
sorry for her own past degradation and
endeavoring to maintain those quail
ties which are always respected in
daily life. Her only friend is a hard
spectator of the play of life, a friend
of her husbands. who desires to see
the players happy. She is a lost sheep
out of the fold. and her tragic end is
an exemplifcation Of the old moral
law. Her horizon is widened by daily
contact with purity and domestic life
She is redeemed by the mastery of an
unselfish love, and her tragic lmmola-
ton of herself. The odds are all
against her. she suffers and dies. Miss
against her. She suffers and dies.

weeks in and around New York city
during this season. Crowded theaters
are the rule where 1.-THE White Slave

lions have been injected into BARLEY
Campbell's popular idyl, and the play
thrills as never before. The steam

water remain principal features OF the
production.
Mabelle Gilman has made one of the
most emphatic successes at the Bijou
Theater in the new comic opera THE
Mocking Bird" that has been achieved
on the New York stage in many years.
A young woman of magnetic person

star has been made under the most aus
picious circumstances. All the critics
agree that her acting, singing and
dancing are irresistible, and that 1.-THE
Mocking Bird is one of the daintiest
and most refined of musical plays.
The new opera is full of pretty music,
and many of the songs are already be-
ing whistled One of it's distinctive
features is it's freedom from vulgar

The successful presentation Of 1.-THE

last Wednesday night has been very
favorably commented upon by those
who saw it, and the good words of
praise have made the members of the
school ambitious to make their next
presentation even more of success.
THE Benefit of the Doubt was an
ambitious effort for the initial play,
but the players, and those who assist
ed otherwise. have no reason to feel
anything but pleased at the results of
their work. The play is one that re-
quired acting and reading of a clever
sort to make it go, and it was freely
