The well known Paris theater mar
ager Doligny relates in his remi.
niscences an encounter he once had
with the elder Dumas which furnishes
an illustration of the novelist's will
ness. Doligny produced Dumas drama,
"Kean," with the rather peculiar slip
ulation that the author should receive
one-third Of the gross receipts when
these exceeded 5000 francs and moth
ing ut all if they fell below that fig
ure. Dumas, who was always hard
up. came late one evening to get his
share.
Luck is against you again." said
the manager You don't get anything
tonight. Here is the account"
Dumas glanced ut it aud went away.
In a few minutes he came back and
said:
"Just look over the account again
and then pay me 1000 friincs. The
ticket that just bought for 3 francs
brings the total up to 5000, francs and
80 centimes.'
