High Salaries in Vaudeville.

High salaries for vaudeville pcr-
formers do not prevail alone in the
United States, although here the
average is thought to be higher than
anywhere else. Mrs. Langtry is
credited with receiving $4,000 per
week from American managers and
Lillian Russell is quoted at S2, 800,
But there are performers abroad
whose names are unknown on this
side of the water who receive far
greater than a presidential salary,
Harry Lander, the Scotch comedian,
declined all American offers on the
ground that he can earn $1,000 per
week at home and he is booked ahead
until 1912. There are dozen other
English vaudeville artists who play
almost continuously in London and
are so well repaid for their efforts
that nothing can tempt them to leave
home.

LEADING MAN WAS ENVioUS.
He Permitted the Heroine to Faint
Without Falling.

When Rose Stahl who Is now ap.
pcaring in New York in James Forbes
comedy THE Chorus Lady" was
playing round of parts with stock
company in western city her sue
cess aroused the envy of the leading
man, who, prior TO her arrival, had
occupied the position of first favoritc
with the public. Because of her
popularity the management decided
to revive Camille" with the actress
in the title role. Rehearsals prog,
ressed satisfactorily. The leading
man had apparently discarded his at.
titude of unfiendliness and was the
acme of courtesy and good will.
The opening night arrived and the
performance went beautifully until
the fourth act, when Armande angrily
hurls money upon Camille who, ac-
cording to all stage traditions, is
supposed to be overcome and fall
iainting upon the floor. Tho leading
man, who was temperamental
and somewhat hysterical individual
achieved this climax in Il perfect
whirlwind of passion, but at the con
clusion, to the great surprise OF
his fellow players, he toppled over
upon the floor.
Miss Stahl had already closed hcI
eyes and begun to make AN effective

sounding whack at her feet She eau

fluence of her great disappointment
They say in Bake"vllle that Gal
lie" Osborn. as she is known. will
go to the grave without taking the
slightest notice of the existence of
the father whose opposition to her
marriage scared her soul and caused
her to renounce the world. He
passed from her life that fateful
Christmas eve quarter of centur
ago, when, in terrible anger, he ord
cred her sweetheart, Walter Lump
kins, from his door and told him new
CT to seek his daughter again.
Albert Osborn, the father. is now
40 years old, and IL he, has ever re-
GREETED the act he has not given
sign of 1t to his neighbors. The
daughter lives in the same house
with her father, but in separate
apartments, and is seldom seen up
on the street. When she does ap
pear she Is always veiled and hooded.
She never looks at man.
Caroline Osborn as girl was the
inspiration of all the social doings of
the village. She was active in the
church and the foremost at the
dances and other amusements OF the
young folks. Until she was 20 years
of age she remained heart free.
They are after my money, not me,
she often said of her many sutors.
There was a change, however, when
Walter Lumpkins came along. He
had been Used to city life and was
quaintance. He was handsome
fellow, about two years older than
she, and wore clothes that looked
aud fitted better than those of the
young men of the village. Lumpkins
first met Caroline Osborn at barn
dance. The two seemed to be un-
usually attracted. From that time
Caroline was no longer the frivolous
girl she had been. She became u
woman who loved with the fervor of
a passionate nature. In few months
time she and Lumpkins were accept
ed lovers.
From the first, however, Caroline's
father pid not look with favor up
on her sweetheart. Lumpkins. al
though OF exemplary habits and good
character and OF good promise, did not
come of wealthy family. lie was,
In fact, poor. The elder Osborn
who had married a second wife, was
ambitious that his daughter should
marry man who wo,ld have wealth
to match her own.
Finally the young people became
secretly engaged The village people
say II was upon Christmas eve
that Walter Lumpkins asked Osborn
for the hand OF his daughter. Lump
kins went away and never came
back again. Caroline's health had
been undermined by the long and bit
tier opposition Of her father and she
became seriously III.
