TRADING IN FURS TODAY.
1ome IntereBtinE Particulars OF the
business In the hudson
bay Country.

First Of all, when an Indian arrives
furs in the pack must be sorted, sill
yer fox worth $500 separated from
cross fox and blue and white worth
from ten dollars down, according to
quality, and from common red fox,
worth less. Twenty years ago, saysan
article on Hudson Bay company, in
Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly, il was
no unusual thing for the Hudson Bay
company to send to England yearly 49,
q cross fox skins. 1000 blue, lOO. 600
red, half a dozen silver. Few wolf skins
are in the trapper's pack, unless par
ticularly fine specimens of brown arc
tic and white arctic, bought us n Gu
riOsity, and not for value MS skins.
Against the wolf the trapper wages
war as against n pest that destroys
other game. and not for its skin. Next
TO muskrat. the most plentiful fur will
be that of the rabbit or varying hare.
Buffalo was once the staple of the hunt
er. What the buffalo was. the white
rabbit is to-day. From il the Indian
gets clothing, tepee covers blankets,
thongs, food. From il, the white man
who is n manufacturer OF fnrs gets
gray fox and chinchilla, and seal in
imitation. Except one year i'll seven,
when a rabbi, plague spares the land
by cutting down their prolific numbers,
the varying hare is plentiful enough 10

OF ACTORS.

Cp the Deceit.

Salaries Of actors vary from almost
nothing to $500 n week, with a few
exceptions that go above that, writee
f. T.. Fylcs, in Leslie's Monthly. I
doubt though TINT any supporting
actor outside of Weber x Fields com
pany gets more than $500. Those
That go above Rre stars, many of
whom receive n fixed salary and a
percentage on the profits. 4 female
star who crowded n New York thea
ter the easOn before last for six
months received only $3.50, while her
leading man WAS getting $3.50. But
she WAS II risky venture for her mAn.
ager, whO lifted her from u minor
position to s%tarduIn. and a failure
would have cost him much. Many
stars are their own managers. and
engage n business man Z direct
their affairs for n salary. MS they
would IA supporting actor. The gains
OF actors are absurdly exaggerated in
the public mind, and even among
themselves they crdcavor to keep
up the deceit. a reason TINT 80 many
English actOrs are imported Is that
players Of the first class in London
receive n third less than equally tai
ented and wcll-known Americans.
