Only the Well-Dressed Girls Can Get) Jobs, and They Cannot Keep Up Appearances Unless They Do Without Food. To be a merry, merry chorus maiden on $15 a week {5 not tne oasiest thing in the world, {= the verdict of pretty Hope Temple, the chorus girl, who was Fecently found ill and in want of food 4m her boarding-house on West Thirty- sixth street. Miss Temple says that for an ordinary girl, in the common occupations of life, “fifteen per’ may seem a luxurious sal- ry, but to the gay creature who !s Bupposed to trip up and down Broad- way in the latest fashioned garments the money won't do et all, “Chorus girls can live on $15 a week if they are at home,” said Miss Temple, “byt girls who lve at boarding-houses have a pretty hard time, It 1s impossl- ble for them to save up enough money to last them during the months they are not working or during the weeks of rehearsal, at Dress Well. “In the first place, choru expected to dress well.

A stylishly dressed woman rustling into a manager's oMce with sparkling Jewels und a general air of prosperity is the one who lands her job every time, Now, how {s the girl earning $15 & week going to save up enough money to buy fine clothes?" The actual expenses of a chorus girl come up dangercusly near the limit of her salary, Miss ‘Temple's former room-mate, Miss Adele Richards, who fhas been In the business five years, told the same story of expenses. First of all, @ New York chorus girl pays on an average $5 a week for her room. It costs % or $6 for board, Laundry averages 7% cents a week, and car fare, if she lives out of the theatrical district, runs up to 0 cents a week, Already §11.55 1s accounted for. “At the theatre," said Miss Temple, “there are expenses that average about $l_a week, and, of course, this comes out of our salary. ‘There Ia the regular Make-up of cosmetic, eyebrow pencil, blue grease paint, rouge, powder, pre- pared chalk for the neck ‘and shoulders, cosmetic brush, rabbit's foot to apply the rouge, powder puff, mushroom powder puff, make-up ‘towels and the indispensable cold cream.

REMARKABLE BIT OF ACTING.} Blanche Walsh, by her acting of Mas- lova at the Victoria Theatre last night, raised the dramatization of Tolstol's “Resurrection” above the level of mere melodrama. Powers never doubted, but hitherto so often misdirected, found opportunity tn the hapless heroine of this stern story of human fallings and penalties, and were proven by Miss Walsh almost to the de- Bree of greatness. The play, in some respects, is Mttle better than "The Eterual Ci whieh it supplants In the Hammerstein house, yet Miss Walsh selzed upon !t with such a strong and sure dramatic grasp that by the sheer force of her talents it was made vorthy serlous attention. dle.

There was an old clergyman in Central New York State some years ago who was a@ yery powerful speak- er but whose private life was by no means exemplary. Some of the more outspoken of his parishioners were in the habit of remonstrating with him regularly about this, and bis reply in- variably was, “Don’t do as I do; do as I tell you to do.” It ig so with a great many phyel- clans.

The husband, Benjamin Schnelder. was awakened by his wife's groans this morning, She {# only twenty years old, had been married but a few months and had worrled much because of her band's idleness. When he asked her what was the matter she pointed to a package which had contained polson. Schnetder ran out of the house tn his bare feet, al- though the temperature was near zero and the streets covered with snow, and telephoned to Police Headquarters for an ambi ce. One was sent from Bellevue and the Fifth street station notified.
