THE LOST WIFE.

[Cqitfinitedfrom Second Page.] roused bra knock at ber door. Spring* ing up, «bo demanded what was wanted In a voioe which abook alightly In spite of her effort* to control it.

Master Harry says, will you please come down and favor us with some music," rotnrned John without. "Toll your master that I am not well, and desire to be excused," she replied and as th« servant retreated, she clasped I both ha::ds over ber forehead with a gesture of indescribable pain.

Oh, why doea that man seek to torture mc?" she groaned. "Insults^ taunta and roiled sarcasm is all thai he can give me, Ob, heaven {jrant that he did not otwrvo me when I beard hia name. Perhaj«fi he did, and has sent for me to further hia effort to understand why it should move me. But no, it was only to add another sting to the insult of tonight cud I will not seem to take any further notice. What is it that makes him pursue me with hate? Oh, if he should discover that Guy Barton! known to me, what may not follow dure not think of it. I seem to be holding a cup in which sparkles all tho wine of lif3 there is left to me. Will his band striko it down and leave me to dieof thirst ii a wilderness of misery? Oh, why ba3 ho come here? How did he find that fair young dove whose heart he bos won. I could see it by the fluah on her cheek, and the light In her eye! Can ha be her chosen lover? Oh, God forbid! Tho Vulture with the Dove— oh, Ileaven is too merciful to mate her thus. I should die to see her wed him— sweet beautiful Madeline! Ah, what shall I do—how escape bin eye? How •hall I warn bor Dare I warn her at all C'b, I am In a strait. Father, help me!"

She bad been pacing the floor, and now she fell upon her knees. Thus it ever ia, in our miser)*. We commune with ourselves until we see our helplessness, and then we turn to that power without which we can do nothing.

Hours passed before she sought ber couch and endeavored to close her eyes in slumber.

It was late beforo the femlly left the library. Ora upon her knees,had heard the

light

patter of Madeline's feet a* she

passed ber door few moments later she had heard the strangers mount the stairs also and enter chambers on the samo floor with hers. Afterwards Dr. Clifton passed to his room. It was a half an hour later before Harry retired, and then as he went by her door, she fancied sho heard a low laugh, which stilled tho beatings of her heart and made her blood course through her veins like streams of ice. What could it mean? What mischief was brewing against her that should bring a laugh like tliat to.his lips? Oh, were the bright days of peace and rest, and the hopes that sprang out of them, about to fade away Into the dread chaos from which sho so lately escaped

This intensely Interesting story will be continued In The Saturday Evening Mail next week and will be found full of Interest to the end.

ACTORS AND ACTRESSES.

What They Suffer in Ihe Hope of Winning Fame—The Life of Luxurj/ and Ease that fticcerdi Success—Lotta Preparing to Withdraw From the Stage,

Wahhinotoj*, March 31.—There Is ne career in life in which the two extremes of success or failure are so sharply defined as that of the stage. To my thinking there Is not an existence under heaven so poor, so woe begone, so utterly wretched as that of a third or lourth class player. The demands of the position are enormous the pay a stipend. Thero aro actors in New York whose mental acquirement* aro of a higher grade than feur-fifths of the business men who govern trade there who are of moro liberal education, better breeding, and equally good moral habits yet the pay of these actors, when they ore In situation—which Is not si ways—is less than that or tho average type-setter, or about on a par with tbo great army of tape verniers and yard measurers In the-large retail stores of Broadway. The requirements of drees—even for male actors— nro very great on the stage if a good memory and a peraohable appearance nro lacking untold humiliations in the way of cruel criticism are In store for the poor wight. The sense of servitude •—of being under a master—is as great behind tho scenes of a theater where a vigilant manager rules (and no other theater can be successful) as it Is In the army. Insults and moral euflk and kick* from overbearing "state" are a matter of common occurrence. And „wlth these things there is a galling sense of the existence in the community of a lack of consideration in one's calling, which constitute* the crowning distress of all. A man or woman cau endure poverty and toil with composure and fortitude if he frels that thero lives for liim and his labor a sentiment of respect and honor in the community in which he dwells,

BORROWS ANt» JOYS,

If those disadvantages exist fbr sn actor they nro increased a thousand-fold in tho case of the subordinate eotrsws. To command a living salary only the actress of to-day must possess a wardrobe belter than that of the maiority of the women who oome to see the play. Her appearance must be at least pleasing, her phvsicaJ endurance very great, her education above the average, her power of memorising speeches rapid and sure. And tbe lack of social advantages wbich the actor fuels keenly enough am still more sharply emphasised in the eaj« of feminine players. In brief, far moro ardently than that mine enemy should write a book do I yearn that be tihould be condemned to a subordinate position in the stock company of a theater.

But let tiiia very same poor player" only make a "hit let some fciry godmother of Success but touch Wm with the tip of her wand, and between Bonapane tho infkntry lieutenant and Napoleon the First as Emperor of Fraoee there were not a greater difference. Money out of all proportion to his prions earnings flows in on him tbo toil miraculously lessened and, most wonderful of *u, instead of being as he was before a social pariah he instantly be* comes a fashion-hunted lion, whose roar i* oon^derod sweetest music in every driving-room. These are the glittorlng prises which lure so many youth upon tbe stage, there to lead a life of drudgery, social ostracism, and 111requited effort—i#*** fatmi which they

chase over the swjmp* of poverty ami

bitterness till their weary foot sink In the marshes of diseases and death. OKK WHO HAS SUCCKKDKD.

We have had at the National Theater this past week the little artlat Lotta, and I aiu movod thus to sermonise on the subject of excellence and mediocrity in dramatic endeavor with this bright little creature as a text. The season of Lent is more than in other oities an interfere ence with tbeatrlcsl profit in Washington, not ouly because the elegance and fashion of the Catholic or cause the who1 breathing spell after the linked sweetness, long drawn out, of inoeasant ball and concert, reception and dinner and opera going throughout tbe winter. But no sooner appeared Lntta's name upon the bill than the box office of the theater was besieged with ticket-takers. The audlenoes have been great, from tbe first night to the last, ana, in spile of Lent, have been recruited from the most fash ionable circles in the town. The President and his family came promptly to tbe firU representation, and each evening the theater has been the rendezvous for the very flower of the aristocracy among tbe residents as well as the most creamy of the cream of those excruciating big wigs, le corps diplomatique. Adjectives of admiration in all the modern languages have been showered the whole week upon the winsome little girl.

I had a chat with Lotta this morning in a bright little parlor, the most conspicuous of whose adornments—always excepting Its occupant—wore flowers and visiting cards. \\'hospoke of social oat racism as connected with au actress's career? The great looking-glass over the chimney-piece was quite tordered with the overlapping pastebcrds, upon which were ngrossed the names of those in the city most distinguished and most cultured.' Flowers in all tho varying stages from the freshness of this morning to the blighted beauty of yesterday cumbered center-table, mantel-piece, and window shelves. With a smile and a kiss this little beauty welcomed me, rising from her easy chair and laying down a bit of fancy work imitative of lace with which she was toying.

Do you remember Lotta hair? It is of a red the most glorious bright, beautiful red not a tinge of yellow in it—all red, red, almost cherry red. You get it in Titien's paintings, this shade rarely see it on the flesh. Agnes Ethel Is roiwe, but not red like this, fcr there is much blonde in Ethel's hair, but there is no blonde iu Lot

La's,

and still less any

brune. I Etta's hair is almost as red against her white forehead as your cardinal ribbon Is against 3'our white silk dress. It Is a shade for painters to rave over. And her eyes are black—or so deep a brown that they seem black— and they are the very essence of mirthfulness in eyes, sparkling with fun, brimming with mutvtercs, the very eyes of all others for a little comedy actress to possess. Her figure is like that of a girl fourteen. This childish phvsiquo is the very thing demanded by Lotta's sarts, as without it her pranks and rolies would be Invested with a spirit of coarseness now entirely absent. A little girl may dig a man n't he ribs with her elbow or punctuate ber remarks by a blow from her tiny foot on his shins, and we laugh heartily at it, thotigh if a woman were to do the same it would be

highly indecorous, udt.herK,ajj}using nor ladv-llke LOTTA TIR1XO OF TOE STAGE.'

When are vou to play again in New York I asked of Miss Lotta. "The management of Theater wants me to come play there In May. I don't know whether I shall or not. In fact I'm thinking of leaving the stage."

What! leave tbe stage Ob, it would be a spectacle for the gods to weep over were you to withdraw all your funmaking capabilities away from the slim stock now enjoyed by poor humanity."

Well, it makes me very happy," said Lotta, "to think that I contribute to people's enjoyment—If I do," she adaed, modestly.

think any one who

can make his or her fellow-creatures laugh ought to be honored. I enjoy a good langh so much myself. I feel so refreshed after It."

And that's just thereasoh you should not think of leaving the stage." Well, I don't mean that I shall leave it for good. I want to leave it for about a year aud enjoy domestic life. Then, after that, just play about one engagement each year—no more."

Yon have been successful enough la the pecuniary sense to do this t" "Ob, yes. Indeed! thank goodness," answered the little girl. "I have a fortune amply sufficient to live just as I like all the rest of my life."

You are fortunate Indeed to have compassed this at your youthful age." RICH, WBAItY, AND DKTKRMINED TO REST.

I was off the stage once befbre during fourteen months and the rest did me a world of good. I'm tip tired, you know. I'v* been acting and travelling ever sincel was nine ye*rs old." 8he spoke to

r'oiM

who knew" when

she referred to the fatigues of travelling In this country. Seven seasons in the lectors field bsve thorougaly educated me concerning the ruinous rack of tbe rail upon the health. Theatrical stars do not travel so Incesssntly as lecturers do, for they generally spend at leasts town whf a week in a lile a lecturer remains but a nigbt. But the fetlgue of rehears® Is and changing of costumes abovt eqaalir.es tbe drudgoro of the two pursuits.

And bow shall you occupy yonrself during the yesr you remain off tbe stage?" I asked.

I *ball devote myself te music, of which I am very fond and which I long to be more proficient in."

Where shall vou pass yonr time?" Mamma is going to hire a cottage at Newport for tbe summer, and next winter I suppose we shall spend In New York or England. I have a splendid offer to play in England—have bad it for three or four years. I don't care whether I plav there or not, but my mother is English and wonld like to see me make a success in London."

If the intense admiration which Lotta's appearance evoked from certain attache* of the British Legation and their wlvee on one evening when I

present at tbe theateHbere te any earn-

est of her acceptability to tbe

she appears. And I think, too. that tbe York cfltios will he greatly with the advance In ber art which Lotta

ties will he greatly struck

has made since ber last appearance in the metropolis. It Is *11 very well to speak of her htimorsome capetsas "minstrel basin!**," bat that it Is a very artistic minstrel bus!new* must be con, f&eed. Observe tbe fine touch of nature hn ber Kip. wfeen ber lover kisses her on the forehead—bow she stampers and clutches at a chair, the novelty of her sensations fairly daxing ber, when, upon recovering somewhat, she wipes ber forehead with the palm of her hand like flash, and a rapturously kisses that! Listen to the touching pathos, somewhat mechanical, lost tike a nice, well-t*-hared little Sunday-school girl, but entirely devoid of burlesque, with which, in "Musette," she sings tbs tuneful hymn:

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING

In the sweet by and by We aball meet on the beautiful shore— shifting from foot to foot with tbe ber arms in time rhythin and swaying with the beat of tho syllablea. What are the demands of artistic excellence if these do not belong to them?

ON HAND AND OFK THB STAGE.

There never was a greater fhvorite behind tho scenes of 'any theater than Lotta. From the highest to the humblest member of each company she has the same pleasant'smile, sn equal kindly gieeting. I have beou behind thesoenes of theaters from one end of the countr to the other, and I never heard a hars1 criticism of Lotta. No matter If her pieces go wrorg reason of the shortcoming* of the periormersshe Is always indnlgent

little girl who says "please" and "thank you" to everybody and for everything, The "stipes" (the very nether-iuost plebiansof the social community of the stage) of

she was playing were so charmed by her kindness and affability, which formed such a contrast to the conduct of the generality of successful stars, tint t!\ey presented her on the last night of her engagement with

the most beautiful of all her gifts that night.

Who knows the deprivations these poor fellows had endured throughout tne year iu order to be able to lay at the feet of the kind Lotta something of permanent value, and which was at the same time a tangible evidence of her own gentleness and amiability?

OCEAN TO OCEAN^I

After a sufficient interval to give our amusement-going people a good rest, and depleted pocket books time to recover the recont heavy drafts, the Opera House will be opened on Monday and Tuesday evening, when Mr. Frank E. Aiken will make bis first appearance hero, and present for the first time in this city the new drama of "Bert or Ocean to Ocean." Mr. Aiken comes with

high endorsements from the

Eastern press. Tho play is of the sensational school, abounding in tableaux and startling situations. It opens with a scene representing the office of a bank in New York, the rise of the curtain discovering Bagett(I. B. Everham) dusting and preparing for office hours. He is soon joined by Jenny, a sprightly, warm-henrted house-maid (Josie Loane,) when aspirited and cleverly constructed dialogue takes place—these two forming the low comedy element of the piece. In quick succession other persons enter upon the scene first, Gus Tivis (J. H. Brown.) a fast young man given to gambling then Bert Bristow, fF. E. Aiken,) a model of honor and manliness, who had advanced from a very humble position to one of trust and confidence in the bank and in love with Grace Josslyn (Miss Howard while be is giving Gus some good advice and the latter tells him that he knows of his secret attachment to Grace, Jarvis Josslyn (Mr. Loane) arrives and hears thHto nim unwelcome intelligence. Grace is tbe next on the scene after a pretty little dialogue with Bert retires into the private office to await the coming of her father, who shortly after puts in bis appearance. Adam Josslyn (Mr. Dion ae Martelle) Is the head of the firm, nncle to Jarvis and father of Grace. Upon his arrival "business" is talked giving an admirable representation of a banker's offloe. Josslyn Senior states that one of their depositors who bfti left in the care of tbe firm 500 Spanish doubloons wished to withdraw the money, and in doubloons. This brings to light the fact that Gus Tivis has by means of a false key extracted one hundred of them from tbe safe. He has a few in bis pocket and while the office Is clear he prooeeds to restore them, but is caught by young Josslyn who then compels him to enter Into a plot to fasten the crime upon Bert, #hich of course is easily done, as be is the only one in the office possessed of a key to that particular safe The curtan falls upon a pretty tableaux, in which Grace declares ber love for Bert and entire confidence in his inneoence.

The second act shows the home of Bert, with a broken-hearted mother, (Miss Wren,) and the Jodgingsof Gus, who is found by Bert, and while almost helplessly drunk be confesses to the 1st-

ter his share In thd crime. Act the third gives life upon the plains of the Hr West, with Wild Nat (Aiken) and slyn with sn nncle

course Bert prevents the catastrophe intended and the soene again is shifted to tbe Pacific coast. Act Four showing Jarvis as a millionaire bank director, under tbe soubriquet of Prlnoe Josslyn he is intruded upon in his office |y Gus, who, at the muzzle of a revolver, compels him to write a confession of his crimes snd restore tbe false key of the safe with Tivis' name on, but as he leaves the office Jarvis steps to a window and shoots him down, he has time, however, before he dies to conceal tbe confession snd Inform Bert of its whereabouts, but as the latter is in search of the document he Is in turn shot down by Jarvis.

Jch.i T. Itaj'Di .'id has been talking

with a reporter of the St. Louis Times about the success of the character of Colonel Sellers, He says he is making $120,000 a year, and thinks the part will wear as well as Jefferson's Kip Van Winkle. He first played it, but in another dramatisation, ih California, but Mark Twain stopped the performances, having planned to put it on the stage himself, with Colonel Sellers as a se rious part, played by Lawrence Barrett, it possible. "I came East," says Raymond, "saw Twain, got him to go to work, fixed up tbe stage business as I thought most effectively, and started out with the piece at Rochester. It didn't go. Then I did a rash thing. Without dollar In my pocket I broke for New York. Not a manager would touch it. I borrowed some monej', paid a week's rent in advanoe for the Park Theatre, got up a tolerable company, aud opened out. 1 had Mark Twain on hand to make a speech. That attracted a full bouse, not a paying one. Betweeu tbe third and fourth act Mark Twain lounged out to tbe foolights. lie was as solemn as a mute. During tbo whole ofhls twenty minutes' sp-och ho never cracked a smile, while tbe audience roaring. Every hit took. That night a thousand people advertised Sellers, bis mules, hogs, corn, and e3'e-wn-ter speculations. From that time on the house increased nightly until there was no more rdom for an increase. I played onehundred and twenty nights, took a short run to the other large cities, came back te New York and played forty nights more, and the next season every theatre in the country was offered to me on my own terms." Raymond intends to play Colonel Sellers in England in 1877, believing that the Emma Mine swindle has educated the English people so that they will appreciate the points of —A handsome collection of CHROMOS, ENGRAVINGS, .and other PIC-
