NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-"There's i
cOcOanTt tree drifting ahead off thu

man body in it."
In the track Of the West Indian hur-
ricane, while the steamer Foxton Hall
was passing the debris of the storm.
sixty miles off the Jamaica coast, the
vessels first officer made this discoy-
cry and was SO sure of it that ne sent
a lifeboat TO the tree.
Half an hour later the boat crew
was lifting half-conscious pickanin-

drank milk from its nuts and, finally
exhausted, fell asleep in it's branches.
He believed he floated for two days.
The little fellow is now on board the

cargo in Brooklyn, but on Christmas
day the steamer will start back with
him to his Eomc among the beach

he was found was one given him by an

The actress cannot and is not expect
ed TO live on her wages. VOllratt Won
LeDcl. a well-known actor, has pub
llShcd a report in which it is stated
that theaterS in garrison towns pay
lower salaries than elsewhere, and he
explains why. The theater managers
excuse the low salaries to applicants
for posts by telling them they can dine
at the expense of the army officers.
In Germany and Austria the theat-
ricGl agent is even more autocratic
than elsewhere. For slight services
the agent exacts blood money. The
agent gets the actress an engagement
for a few months; but lie binds her
down to pay commission for years If
the engagement is extended or renew
ed. An actress who earns only 81 200
in three years is often obliged to pay
the agent $309; and the agent draws
the money direct from the theater. A
recent law suit shows that when
theater WIS in monetary difficulties it
paid first the agents commission in
full, and afterwards paid part of the
money due to the actresses.
Plight Grows Worse.
The plight of the continental stage
grows worse. In the last fifteen years
earnings in all other professions have
risen by third; but in Germany and
Austria the earnings of actors and
actresses have fallen. The only ex-
ceptions are few stars. The rank
and file of stage artists are worse off
than before. This is due to competi-

To the outsider the term stage hand

scenery; there are the property man and

not otherwise employed they have the
dlsconcerting habit of audibly gossip
ing and playing cards. Then there are
the electrician and his assistants, whose
business it is to operate the lights.
The humblest of the regular staff is
the grip" This man handles scenery
and does general utility work about the
stage. When exigency demands the
force is added to from the roustabouts
who usually infest the stage entrance,

casual jobs aud "sponging" upon the
