| MARY ANDERSON'S LIFE.
= C Y--EING ABOUT THE AMERI
CAN AC IRESS* FUTURE.
g o w a Gawky Country Girl Fooled
Gen. Sfcerinan and Went Ahead Un
til She Leads in the Profession—
Pennsylvania and Her Congressmen.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Vjw York, Jan. 5. —So Mary Anderson
jj being shuffled off her virgin c oil again.
Why won’t the newspaper boys give us a
saroease of fiction about the lovely Blue
Gra?s Juliet? It may be a tribute to her
genius that she has been made the subject
of ni re public gossio than any woman in
I America —not excepting the adorable Mrs.
Clove! iid —but it must be a cause of much
fisireis tv oue who undeniably seeks to
avoid notoriety. For reasons good and
sufficient, I am not one of those who imagine
taat Miss Anderson lends herself to fictitious
advertising schemes, as do so many
of her sifter actresses even to the limits
of meretriciousness. I did for a time
believe that her irrepressible and mag ifi
ooutly asiniue stepfather. Dr. Ham Grifflu,
was responsible for the various stories cir
culated concerning her, but I have finally
come to the belief that English handlers of
the quill obtain some assistance in keeping
the pot boiiing by devising interesting tales
concerning one whom they know Americans
hold in high regard. From such a source
comes the now much-worn romance which
represented her as only being prevented by
toe tears of her relatives and the pleadings
tf her friends fro n immuring herself
ia a CatholicjJ con vent. There was never
the slightest foundation of fact for that.
While intensely and conscientiously re
ligious, Mary Anderson considers that she
is giving proper vent to divinely given
attributes by her life upon the stage—a
stage which has never had a shadow cas
upon it by act of hers. Then last s ring or
summer there came from London the
alarming statement about her being con
fii:< and in a private a-ylum for the insane.
That was the malicious emanation of a
writer namod Marks, whose arrest for black
mail the cable recorded a few days ago. The
story was given new vogue ia this country
by the tongue of another woman, herself
at one time an aclre s of eminence, but
no" v ccupying a dizzy bight of prominence
as the v lie of a champion base bailer. I
refer to the estimable woman who o ce
adorned the stage as Helen Dauvray, but
who is now famous as Helen Homerun
Ward. Traveling to Long Branch she told
Charles A. Byrne, the dramatic writer,
that she know that Mary Anderson was
locked up in a private retreat for the mad,
and naturally Byrne sowed the news broad
cast.
Thus is history made.
And so it is iu all likelihood about this
latest engagomeot story.
Navar, o, whose name is given as the
party of the other part, is a sou of the rich
man who built the gigantic and gorgeous
Navarr > lists on Fifty-ninth street, oppo
site Central park, a id which are sa.d to be
tne largest apartment Puddings in the
world. Miss Anderson has long been a
friend of ihe family, anl a health-peeking
trip with them’ to the south of
France lias long been contemplated.
Her natural c< mpaniou-hip with you g
Navarro would be sufficient ordi
narily for the cable gossipers to
build a marriage upon, let alone a mere
rumor of an engagement. This is at least
die lOOta time that public announcement
lias been made tnat the fair actress was
ab ut to plunge into the matrimonial abyss,
and yet she still remains “Our Mary'.”
There is no pei son whose opinion concern
y her projects I would rather have than
■John W. Norton, the well-know u theatrical
manager of St. Louis, and the man
who actually gave Miss Anderson to
the stage. Ho is now in New
York on a visit. I talked with him
m his room in the St. James
this morning concerning her. “Yes,” he
s iid, with a contempt ious curl of the lip,
“i’ve read that engagement story. It is all
bo-ii. The last time I saw her I frankly
asked her if she thought she would ever
t arry. Without a trace of embarrassment,
she looked into my eyes and unblushiugly,
and with the laughter of a schoolgirl said:
‘That is a matter to which I have never
given even a second’s thought. I think I
must have Lad siuce I have been upon the
s age not less than 1,000 offers of marriage,
l orn artists, from noblemen, from nearly
all kinds of men, and, much as I may ap
preciate those honors, they have never
lingered in my thoughts for a moment.’
••Those,” continued Mr. Norton, “wao do
hot know Mary Anderson well cannot have
the faintest idea cf tho lovable guilelessness,
the ingenuousness of her character. There
is not an ounce of pretense, a drachm of
faise pride, nor a penny weight of sordidness
in her c mposition. When she first a
- on the stage fourteen years ago—she
T -i-s exactly 30 vears old on the 21st day of
lost July—she was a green, gawky girl not
yet 17 years of age. I’o-dav, refi icd, pol
i-'licd, wealthy, the leaning American
w oman of her profession, she is in heart and
mind the same young girl who in 1875
dared fame to battle on t e boards of a
Louisville theater. Prosperity has failed to
ruin her. Those who falsely accuse her of
se king notoriety should witness the manner
in which she performs her religious duties,
biie avoids the cathedrals and big fashiona
ble churches, through a fear of attracting
public attention, and seeks out obscure
chapels. When in St. Louis, for instance,
she worshiped in a little church down on
toe levee, whose congregation was between
tViand 300. Noticing that its carpet was
threadbare and its turi ishmgs shabby, sli6
uo -tentatiously had it handsomely car
peted and furnished throughout. She kept
tins act a secret. She (lid not even tell me.
I ’earned it accidentally through meeting
the priest of the parish. She does thousands
of such things of which the world never
hears, aid many men in her profession who
cave her a helping hand when she was
struggling can thank the looseness of her
purse-strings for preservation from dis
aster.’ 1
It is lovely to hear such things about one
vho has won in tho battle of life.
let how lowly was her beginning!
. Have you heard the story? I don’t think
it lias ever been told accurately. She was a
|o -r Louisville girl, and as green as grass,
ohe was fired with a desire to go upou the
stage, and insisted upou reciting to every
prominent actor who came to Louisville
and who would give her an audience. In
tnis way John McCullough heard and was
s< : much impressed by her that he wrote
about her to his friend John W. Nor
ton, who was then the acting manager
,-’ r Hen de Bar’s opera house in St. Louis.
Norton came to Louisville and listened to
the overgrown child—she was little more—
and agreed to get her a stock company for
one week’s engagement, her step-father
(■remising to pay tee rent of the theater,
ine latter stipulation, when the time for
I 'vment came, Dr. Griffin was unaole to
nihil, and Norton assumed that risk also,
ne opening night in her home city Mary
Andeison in the part of “Juliet” played to
J a by #lO. The remainder of the week
, k u: ’ ‘‘ltie better, but it convinced Norton
*ai in the gawky Kentucky girl a great
•i -rcss was concealed.
v ’ Ust bene I must relate a story which
us rather hard on Gen. Sherman, but it
—inti ß * j e Purled. To build a house
■ i i. eat; ical parlance, of course—for th >
p bight of that first week’s engage
°“u Norton went to St. Louis and
• eil a numbor of prominent people j
then* 8 .°. tbers Gen. Sherman, who was j
iiv |. a citizen of St. Louis) to come to Lou
ln , - tiee bis dramatic wonder. After |

nien a freat future for her. After the
A retired from her presence Norton
Len. Sherman what was bis frank
opinion of the actress. The old warrior
patted the Young manager o.i ihe back eom
p s ’to. at-ly, a.ul sai.i: "Uv b v, she doesn’t
am uDtto anything. Ti.e e is nothing in
her. Sue will never am luut to anything,
no matter uow long she lives.”
That was in Nov. mber.
Tr.e following April Mary Anderson,
after having played iu New Orleans, atm
then at a number of one-night s.ands, dur
ing w ,ich John Norton was her manager
and the leading actor in ter supporting
company, and after a brief rest given up to
study and practice under Norton’s direc
tion, she appeared m St. Louis as "Meg
Merrilies. The people went crazy over
her, and the Wildest man in the audience
was Gen. S erman. “My boy,” he sai l to
N rton after tho performance, “she’s
great.”
“What did you tell me in Louisville?”
asked the manager smilingly.
“My boy,” said the hero, throwing up his
hands, “please don’t say a word about

And he doesn’t, but I uo.

MEDICAL ~
"Puzzled The Doctors.”
IWIOST of the cases cured by Ayer’s
nr Sarsaparilla have been given up
by the regular practice. Physicians are
recommending this medicine more than
ever, and with satisfactory results.
E. M. Sargent, Lowell, Mass., says :
“ Several years ago, my daughter broko
out with large sores on her hands,
face, and other parts of her body. The
case puzzled the doctors. My laughter
used Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and'it resulted
in a complete cure. Her blood seems to
have been thoroughly purified, as she
lias never had so much as a pimple
since taking this medicine.”
“ This is to certify that after having
been sick for twelve years with kidney
disease and general debility, and having
been treated by several physicians with
out relief, I am now better in every re
spect, and think I am nearly well,
having taken seven bottles of Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla.’’ Maria Lud wigs on,
