In advance, U- The Astorlan guarantees to Its adver tisers the largest circulation ot any urwjpaper p-'Mlshfd on the Columbia A tOSS TO THE STAGE. . The sorrows ot this mortal state are Augmented by the announcement that the Hon. John L. Sullivan's latest and most formidable attempt to elevate h stu nded at an early hour yesterday morning In Jersey City, where the membert of his company awoke to And that the maaer had disappeared during the night, says the New Tor. Tribune. It la not Inti mated that the manager bad anything mora than the price of a ferry ticket to disappear with, but it is supposed that the proximity ot the Bowery overcame hla powers of resistance. In this emergency, as everybody will be glad to learn, Mr. Sullivan's Vnoral re sources did not desert him. By means of the sum of !5 In spot cash, which he immediately borrowed from a Jer sey City saloonkeeper, the gentlemen and ladles who had been playing "Uncle Tom's Cabin" to somewhat less than crowded houses were enabled to escape the danger of starvation and take passage for this city. Whether the saloonkeeper was actuated by fee nevolence or trepidation we are not informed, but, for the sake ot his soul, we hope that he surrendered his noney cheerfully, for In that case the extreme Improbability of his ever get ting It back imparts the flavor ot true virtue to his set and pierce the general gloom with a ray of sunshine. Another consoling Incident is men tioned, namely, that Little Eva was not left absolutely destitute, but was enabled to convey her father to their home in Cleveland, Mr. 6ulllvan hav ing recently, under , less desperate circumstances, paid her something either on account or in' sheer generos ity; for. all must agree that a narrow- lag death to slow music every day has given Little Eva claims to sympathy which no other member of the com pany can decently allege, unless it be Mr. SulHvan himself. It , must, we think, be admitted that Mr. Sullivan deserved a better fate.- "Uncls Tom's Cabin" is not the greatest dramatic composition ever put upon the stage, but it Is Infinitely superior as a work of art to some of the plays now cur rent and prosperous, and .there is nothing about it to remind an audi ence of Llmburger cheese, while it i would be a calumny to say that Mr. Sullivan is the worst actor in business. It would be a great thing for public morality if he and Little Eva and the rest of them could jam the biggest theater In town twice a day for the next ten years, if only, in so doing, they could drive a con siderable part of 'the profession into as profound a depth of 'bankruptcy as that in which they are themselves now sorrowfully, but, we trust, not hopelessly floundering. From Paris comes an Interesting story of the results of an investigation made by the Gaulois to.dlscw.jr how women may best conserve th?lr health, their beauty and their charm. The Investigation was male by inqui.-'ng how the great women oi the stage managed to retain so long fri.,1 so brilliantly their vigor, their vivacity and .their attractiveness.. The testi mony obtained is more Interesting than instructive, for it appears that none' of the more striking examples of long continued success on the stage follow the same rules of life, nor practice anything like similar methods of conserving their strength. Adelina Pattl, whose career on the stage 'Is as remarkable for its length es for Its brilliancy, is reported as declaring herself an advocate of a regular life, simple diet, fresh air and plenty of exercise. It la said the drinks no wine, nor jjtea, nor coffee; confining herself to water, xcept for a glass of milk In the morning and at night. I Johnnie, said his mother, thereaten 8he gives herself full eight hour f j Wly, ' to the incorrigible, I am going . . t . . , .. . . to have your father whip you when sleep every night, and fakes that In ' comM home ton)ght a bedroom with an open window all 'mama, replied Johnnie penitently, paw the year round. Very different Is the ' Is alius so tired when he comes home. rule of Sara Bernhardt, whose career has been even more remerKable than that of the queen of song.! Of her the report saysj "She lives In closed rooms; goes to bed at S a. m. and steeps till S, eats little but flsh and eggs-often ten eggs In one day drinks champalgae, drives to the the ater In a closed carriage and stays In the theater from eleven to twelve hours. Her holidays at Belle Isle are an exception, and there she lives with ipen windows, exposed to every breete that blows. Such a sudden change in her habits has never harm ed the great actress, she asserts. Ten months of her year are passed In un interrupted work and the other two In the open country." Such Is the conflict in the experience of the two stars. No one can undertake to decide dogmatically concerning the issue. It is a choice of fresh air and cold water against hot rooms and champagne; and the only safe conclusion is that if one Is a genius and a woman she can do anything, and stlM be charm ing forever- While the abstract question as to whether or not labor strikes are ever Justifiable, either economically or mor ally, may not eonslstantly claim the attention of the business public Just at the moment, a paragraph in the final report of the United States In dustrial Commission submitted on Tuesday is a meaty one for both em ployer and employe particularly the latter, says the New Tork Commercial. As nearly as 'the department ot labor can get at the facts. Its mveslgators and statisticians report to the Indus trial Commission that the aggregate loss to employes in wages, as the re sult of tabor disputes from 1S81 to 1900, inclusive, was 130S,6S3,233. or a little over $15,000,000 yearly. The loss to employers during the same period Is stated at 1142,693.104, or rather less than one-half of the amount lost by strikers. The aggregate losses thus amount to nearly $430,000,000, or an average of about $22,500,000 yearly. These figures are astounding In their slgilficance. Strikes and lockouts en tail losses on American employers and their wage-earners of approximately $2,000,000 a month, $500,000 a week or nearly $100,000 for every working-day In the year and more than half of the loss comes out -of the pockets ot the laborers! There must be somewhere or sometimes a compensating gain. or at least a partial one but where is it, and who gets it? Among the many stock superstitions of the couplers at Monte Carlo that of the Wandering Jew is, perhaps, the most striking; strange to say, too It is the least known to the stay-at-home public. At a moment when Lord Rosslyn is making a misguided at tempt to break the bank, giving Monte Carlo an advertisement in resnonse to which- English visitors are flocking to the sunny shores of the Mediterra nean, the story may be worth recount ing. The first person, says the legend, to enter the "Grand Nouvelle Salle de Jeu" at Monte Carlo the day after y-lGood Friday the one day in the year when the rooms are closed is an old man of venerable aspect. He wastes no time, as do so many of the nabltues in seeking to divine which number Is likely to appear, but with the trem bling linger of extreme age places his mite upon a certain number. The wheel Is turned, the coupler's nasal cry falls upon the ear. Then, with a bitterly savage exclamation, the old man snatches up his winnings, hurls the coins from him and ("airly flies from the Casino; for. until he can lose at Monte Carlo, the Wandering Jew must haunt the earth! "The papers," says the Kansas City Journal, "are all talking about the 'maiden speech Just made by 'Char ley' Ccott in congress. As a matter of fact, the maiden speech of 'Charley' Scott was made nine years ego last June. It was In a parlor at Iola, and he g'ot up awkardly from a chair, pulling a tidy and half the Ijooks on the parlor table to the floor, after which he got down on one knee be fore a sofa, which stood between the whatnot and the piano, and asked Miss May Bevard Swing if she would have him. And the cordiality with which his peroration was received on tlhat occasion makes even the flatter ing reception which was accorded his effort In congress the other day ap pear like a frost." Tit m Ot the modern woman it health by exercise. It's an excellent (ad, pro vided that it is always remembered (bat exercise eanuot cure womanly diseases. Indeed, where such diseases exist exer cise is apt to anna vate the condition rather than to help it. The first step to ward establishing the general health is to establish the local womanly health. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures womanly diseases which undermine the general health. It establishes regu larity, dries enfee bling drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness.
