WHAT THE DRAMA COST
RUNNING A THEATRE IN THE EARLY YEARS OE THE CENTURY,
When Kemble Lived 64,000 a Week Was Required to Run Drury Lane—The Salary Paid to the Stars of Long Ago—A Profit-
able Investment. “
If one were asked off handed, to ex- press an opinion in ségard to the rela- tive cost of running a theatre during the carly years of this century and to day it is safe to predict that. unless he had just looked up the matter, even an experienced manager would say at once that the amount of money spent and handied in a first-class playhouse to-day would far exceed that spent a century Just {5 many students of the playhouse find that each age has seen its playhouses mect its special require- ments, and that each generation had had the same enthusiasm, the same faults to find, the same degeneration of the theatre to deplore, soit seems that, after all, the expense of running a thea- tre bears the same relative proportion A very excellent proof of this was found the other day in a book published half a century ago, long since out of print, and never very widely circuiated, on
are ago.
the ‘Life of the Duchess of St. Albans,” whose first husband was Thomas Coutts, the rich banker. There
afulllist of tho expenses of running Drury Lane in 1802, when John Philip Kemble was the manager, is published. Mr. Kemble, as leading actor of the company, drew a salary of $200 a week,
with an additional $70 as stage manager. |
The latter was paid all the year round, the former during the theatrical season ; it made an average income during his control there of $10,000 a year. Mrs. Siddons received $200 a week during the season, or about $6,000 a vear. Leading men like Banister. *‘Handsome Jack,” alike devoted to Garrick and to Edmund Kean, drew a salary of $85 a week. Thomas King, the original Sir Peter Teazle, drew $80. Alexander Pope, whose first wife was the beautiful Miss Younge, and who is better known asa gourmand than an actor, received $65. Wroughton, who was for years proprietor of Sadler's Wells Theatre, had $75; Charles Kemble, $50; Byrne, the ballet master, $40: John Palmer, the original Joseph Surface, $45; Powell, the prompter, had $20, with many emoluments; the famous Grimaldi had but $20.
The Drury Lane company was quite large—it numbered forty five people be sides the extras—so that the selary list footed up to the weekly amount of $2,- 660, fully equal to the largest salary lists of today. The extra people received from $6.25 to $10 a week, which com. pares wel] with the price paid to-day. Indeed, the above figures compare more than favorably with the salaries in Eng- land to-day. English leading men in the provinces receive salaries to-day ranging from $17.50 to $32.50, the figures being larger, of course, in London, and in this country the price ranges all the way from $50 to $300, with notable ex- ceptions, usually paid to English actors, like the $750 that was paid Charles Cogh- lan when he came here to star under John Stetson’s management and the $500 that was paid Leonard Boyne last year, when he staged ‘The Prodigal Daughter,” and played the hero. Boyne’s salary in London was $125. Leading womenin England get from $20 to $40 in the provinces, more in London. English comedians get from $12 to $30 a week, soubrettes from $12, - 50 to $30, heavy men about the same figure as soubrettes, but heavy women receive from $20 to $40 a week. Many responsible utility people in Ungland to- day do not get over $6.25 to $10 a week, less than was paid in Kemble’s time.
Ihe total expense of running the Drury Lane Theatre in Kembie’s time was $4,294 a week. It is doubtful if any theatre in this country to-day costs more. It is difficult to compare the ex- penses to-day with those of Drury Lane at the time mentioned, as so few play- houses have a stock company, but $2,000 will eover most of the salary lists to- day, simply because salaries, though jarge, are few in number, while the ex- penses of a well-known theatre in town, of a position ranking with Drury Lane, are, outside of the salaries, $2,000 a week. Some years ago, when the Bos- ton Theatre had a stock company, the expenses were $600 a day, or, rather, a performance, or $4,200 a week.
It is interesting to note that the val- vation of the Drury Lane property was $600,000, and that it was a profitable property. The rent was figured at only 5 per cent on the investment, instead of 10 per cent, as is done in these days. The season was Only 32 weeks, so that the rental was about $1,000 a week.
Of course it is only fair to note that there was but one other licensed theatre, Covent Garden, at the time, and that, of course, rather overbalances things. in making comparisons of this sort. Still, it may surprise many to find that, so far as the expenditure of big money in the theatre is concerned, we are not in ad- yance of our great-grandfathers, espe- cially when it is considered that this does not include any money for scenery or the author’s fees, which latter were pretty considerable at that time, as many original plays were produced.
The expense of lighting the theatre— candies were used—of heating it, of ser- vauts and of printing the bills of Drury Lane, was $500. It would have been in- teresting to note the cost of lighting alone, to compare it with the cost of electricity—about $95 a week—but, nn- foriunately, no record of that item alone appears. Remarkable as these figures may seem to many, it must be borne in wind that they are the expenses on a very profitable investment.—Chicago

The Hoehenlohes Intermarried European Reigning
Tt x il! be ew chancellor we
e
surprising indeed if the re not tree from )re- race, for, accordin t York Tribune, there is no family 1 Europe the internat of which is more exten Mat Hohenlohe. Queen Vict p sister married a Prince Hohenl and it was her Britannic majesty wh t ,
e premature death of the Princess ore, assumed charge of her children, i whom, Princess Adelaide Hohen lohe, married to the late Duke of Aug ustenLurg, is the mother of the present Umpress of Germany. The Hohenlohes are, therefore, treated as cousins by the
i
reigning family of England, as they ure also by the royal house of Prussia, and there was no more
popular member of the British court than the late Prince Victor Hlohen lohe, who for so many years filled the office of constable of Windsor Castle, and who, after distinguishing himself in the British navy, in which he attain- ed the rank of admiral, married into the English aristocracy and spent the major part of his life in his adopted country. Prince Hohenlohe is married to Princess Leopoldine, of Baden, while another member of the Hohenlohe family is ma trimonially allied to the reigning house of Wurtemberg. Prince Constantine, as grand master of the household of the Emperor of Austria and controller of his court, may be regarded as standing at the head of the Austro-Hungarian arisiocracy. Prince Kraft Hohenlohe is married to the daughter of the Mar- quise d’'Imecourt, one of the most infiu- ential and grandest members of the aristocracy, and sister of the popular cavalry general, the Marquis de Galli- ffet, while one of the sons of the new chancellor has sought a bride in Greece, in the person of Princess Chariclee Ypsilanti, a name than which there is none more illustrious in the annals of modern Greece.
There are Hohenlohes who are mar- ried to Spanish grandees, and there are others who are wedded to patricians of Ro:ne and Naples; while the chancellor and his brother Constantine, at Vienna, are married to Princesses Sayn-Witt geustein, a house which may be con sidered as far more Russian than Ger- man. It was the Russian mother of Princess Hohenlohe, by the way, who was the principal cause of the famous composer, Liszt, becoming a priest. Infatuated with Liszt, she went to the length of securing a divorce from her husband, Prince Nicholas Wittgenstein, in order to marry him. By the time she had secured her freedom, however, the heart of tne fickle coimposer was interested in another direction to such an extent as to render it impossible for him to marry Princess Wittgenstein without provoking not only a scandal but even incurring personal danger at the hands of the relatives of his new inamorata. Sorely per- plexed and disinclined, moreover, to bind himself with the inconveni ent. chains of matrimony, Liszt appealed in his difficulty to his friend and chief patron, Cardinal Hohenlohe. The latter, being desirous of avoiding the terrible mesalliance of a lady of his family with a man of such humble birth as the pianist, induced him to be- come a priest and thus to create an un- surmountable bar to any matrimonial projects on the part of the princess. Althengh bitterly disappointed, she re mained Liszt's friend to the last, and it was at her palace at Rome that he was accustomed to reside when in the eternal city. Her salon there used to be crowded with authors, artists diplo mats and church dignitaries, Cardinal Hohenlohe among the number, and while drinking her caravan tea and puf- fing away at her large Havana cigars, which she was accustomed to smoke, would chatter at ease in Polish, German, Russian, French, English, Italian or Spanish. She survived Liszt for several years, and it was to her that he bequeathed the major part of his possessions.

Able to Transfer Lunacy.
A series of very wonderful experi- ments which have just been concluded by Dr. Luys, of Paris, whose observa- tions and discoveries in connection with magnetism zad electricity in relation to hypnotism made a profound impres- sion upon the scientific world some time ago, has led to a remarkable result. The latest discovery, says the London Telegraph, establishes the fact that cerebral activity can be transferred to acrown of magnetized iron, in which the activity can be retained and subse- quently passed, on to a second person.
Incredible as this may seem, Dr. Luys has proved its possibility by the experiments just referred to. He
placed the crown, which in reality is only a circular band of magnetized iron, on the head of a female patient suffering from melancholia, with a mania for self-destruction, and with such success was the experiment attend- ed that within a fortnight the patient could be allowed to go free without danger, the crown having absorbed all her marked tendencies, About two weeks afterward he put the same crown, which meanwhile had been carefully kept free from contract with anything else, on the head of a male patient suf- fering from hysteria, complicated by frequent recurrent periods of lethargy. The patient was then hypnotized and immediately conducted himself after the manner of the woman who had pre viously worn the crown. Indeed, he practically assumed her personality and uttered exactly the same complaints as she had done. Similar phenomena have, it isreported, been cbserved in the case of every patient experimented upon. Another experimeut showed that the crown retained the impression acquired until it was made red hot.
