THEAIER MAN
PAID FOR LUNCH
ROOSEVELT CLUB MEN SHOW
COST OF "BARON. HUMBUG."
Theatrical Man Tried to Show Ex-
penses Were 'sNot So Great but
the Club Members Showed Him
Wherein He Was Wrong.

A theatrical man who is a good
friend of the Roosevelt club, was TAX
ing lunch the other day with bunch
of the club members and the CONVEX
sation was naturally along theatrical
lines and the coming production of
the expense of putting on Baron
Humbug," which has already run into
the thousands, was up. The theatri-
cal man said: II don't want to dispute
any Of your figures, that you have
given me, but you can't tell me your
expenses are equal those of a profess
sional company. I grant that you pay
$500 for the right to use the Baron
Humbug,' that the rent of your thea
ters in Minneapolis and Duluth and
st. Paul will reach S1,700, that the
printing of souvenir programs such
as you intend getting out, will cost
every cent of $500, that your chorus
and the costumes for your principals
will run the total up $4,000 more,
that your scenery will cost another
$500, that your railroad and hotel
fares on your Duluth trip approx
mately $3.50, that your musical direc-
tor, dancing instructor, advertising,
tickets, Autograph work, bill posting,
more, but when you have taken all
these things into consideration your
total expenses are only about $4,000,
and still you have left out big item
that confronts the professional COM
panies. How about the salaries ?"
The Roosevelt men were up in arms
in minute, and the figures they
quickly produced made the theatrical
man dizzy. Your professional COM
panies spent perhaps q greater
amount to begin with than the figures
we have given you," said one, but
they have an entire season to make
from eight performances and three Of
salaries, your professional company
isn't in it with ours. You know $40
or $12 a week is a good salary for the
average member of a chorus. There
isn't a man in our chorus drawing a
salary of less than SIS a month, and
many of them double that, and some
even more. They have worked three
months in this show. There are sixty
members of the chorus, and take S11O
| a. month for an average, and that is a
low enough estimate, there is repre-
scented a chorus salary of $4,000.
Take twenty-five more for principal
| characters, managers, ETC., and you
have to add $3.50 more, or a total
of nearly 100000. Hows that for a
salary list for company that plays
! these salaries are not paid for the
work done in the Baron Humbug,
but the list represents what is paid the
people taking part in the show"
The theatrical man said nothing,
| but when the waiter brought in the
checks he insisted on paying for the
| lunch.

In the case won by John Clarke against

The court held that the opening was

"AIone In the World.

"Alone in the World" the much talked about new Hal Reid play, wl-ich will be seen at the Bijou theater for one week, beginning next Monday night is said to be one of the best of the very few sen- sible melodramas that have been pro- duced in the last few years, and is free from the coarseness that usually offends the more cultured patrons who patronlze this form of amusement. The plot and dialogue of the play are said to be strik- ingly original, and each succeeding incl dent seems to mystify more than en- tighten one as to the final outcome. The scenic investiture is claimed to be splen- did.
 "The story of "Alone In the World" centers around Robin Hadley, a waif, whose father left him ana a sum of money at the doorstep of the chapel, and to any fate that might befall him. Luck fly the little mite is found by the sex ton, who, upon openings the edifice for morning services is greeted by the wall of an infant instead of the usual appli- cants for charity The good sexton in turn hands the little treasure to Mrs. Hadley, a widow who christens him
