ANGELS MUCH SCARCER
THAN THEY USED TO BE
Those Who Make Money in Theatrical Enterprises Few
and Far Between-One Lost $4,000 With
"The Isle of Champagne"

Wall Street men ssre easy game. or used
to be. for theatrical managers. The man
VINO lies with stocks Is good loser
and is not apt to squeal and quit as
soon. for instance, as a man engaged In
mercantile pursuits
Chamberlyn garnered an angel and
made production. While ii wasn't a
success 1t didn't lose much money, and
the little It did lose the angel chalked
up 10 experience. AS for ChanaDerlyn.
he finally got hold of theater and a
good show and was on the high road to
fortune when he died suddenly.
AS rule one experience as an angel
Is enough for man. Many an angel
who has been piucked By a manager be-
comes SO disgusted that he hates the
sight of a theater There lives such a
man in Boston. This Boston man drop
ped 10000 on summer show at a
Broadway theateT. He had liking for
the theater. particularly behind the
scenes. 1t may be stated as rule thas
the man who likes TO buy late suppers
for chorus girls has the makings of an
admirable angel
This Bostonian had good business
and about $40. 600 In the bank when he
was induced to go into the theatrical
to guarantee salaries for one month
and for costumes and the cost Of pro.
duction
He watched the rehaaisai of the show.
and Ii looked promising to him. 1t
was flrsg produced In this city. and the
manager of the theater had to have his
rent In advance.
When the show was presented ii
seemed likely that 1t would have fair
share of success. The angel was de-
| lighted and sat around the office of the
theater making imaginary road tours
for Companies Nos. 2. 3. and i.
The first week the business was good.
The second week it fell OF some. but
not enough TO scare the angel. The
third week began badly. and the COM
pany played mostly 10 persons who
came In on passes. The weather had
| become very warm. and the people who
go to the theater in the summer are
few, AT the end Of that week the an
gel was uncomfortable.
The rent of the theater had TO be
paid In advance at the end of the fourth
angel approached the house manager
| and asked his advice. II that particu-
lar theater manager hadn't been a pref
~ square man the show might have
run on week or two longer. But the
house manager advised the angel not
to put mp any more money.
The rur therefore ended suddenly
and the seer cry and costumes were put
| in storage. where they stiIl remain.
The Bcstonian went home = wiser
man and kept out Of fheaters for two
years. No one could induce him to
Invest in d theatrical venture again
| His experience Is that Of many men who
have been angels but would hate to
| have 1t known
The Washington times., 1905-06-04

The admissios of a man IN the divorce
court the other day that he bad lost sSo.-
0e0 in backing the comic opera The Isle
OF Champagne must have been inter-
esting TO other men who have lost money
IN similar ventures. The man who made
this avowa1 was a first-Tate example of
the theatrical "an~el."
The angels who make money IN theat-
ricai ventures are few and one seldom
hears about them. says writer in the
New York Sun. 1t is the men who drop
big bank rolls and stop handing out their
cash suddenly that get their names into
print. Their identity becomes known
sooner or later when civil actions are
begun against them for back salaries of
performers and fer printing bills.
One hears less about theatrical angels
now than formerly, Perhaps one reason
for this is that the drama Is. on better
business basis. 1t is not unusual for
plain, hard-headed business men to in
vest money In theatrical ventures SIM
ply because they see q chance 10 make
money.
For the most part their money is in
playhouses. but some are willing to take
a chance on productions. The man with
money who interests himself in produc-
