MODJESKA’S CONFESSION.
gUICIDB CONTEMPLATED IF SHE
FAILED IN AMERICA.
Hard Struggle for a Hearing—A Stage
Queen in Poland Begging for a Trial
in San Francisco—The Victory That
Persistence Won.
The story of iny first appearance in San
Francisco, writes Madame Modjeska in the
Arena, has been told in American periodi
cals so repeatedly that I fear it is back
neved, and there is littlo left for me to say
about it. An article in Scribner's Monthly,
in IS7S or 1579. almost exhausted the sub
ject. It told how a Polish actress with her
husband and son, in company with a few
countrymen, arrived in California iu the
fall of 1876, and settled in a country place
in the south of the state. The author de
scribes in a humorous vein the experiences
in amateur farming of the little colony, and
how the artistic temperament of its mem -
hers was ili-Sttod to meet the every-day
exigencies of a roughing, far-western ranch
life.
I may then dismiss the matter by refer
ence to the above article, and only add that
the failure of our arcadian idyila.connected
with the exhaustion of our material re
sources, compelled us to exchange our
dreams of peace for anew struggle for life.
To confess the truth, I was rergetting my
artistic carter. Not only did I think of it
during the day, but at night dreams of tho
theater haunted my couch. It was in vain
that I endoavored to divert this monomania
bv calling the horses and dogs with names
of my repertoire, and by reciting the most
effective bits of my parts to the chickens
and ducks when feeding them. Instead of
assuaging my longing, 1 only succeeded in
making it more poignant.
Oppressed by this continual brooding, ar.d
having lost my illusions in regard to the
prosperity of our colony, I formed the bold
decision to go to San Francisco to study
English and try my forces on the American
stage. Hardly was the plan formed t efore
it was put into execution. Tne additional
Polish Christmas Eve meal was partaken in
Anaheim with our whole colony, but the
New Year 1677 found me already in San
Francisco. There I met several Polish
friends, and in the house of one of thorn,
Capt. Bielawski, made my first abode.
THE LINGUAL DIFFICULTY.
When I communicated my plans to them
they seemed frightened at my boldness, and
their fear acted like cold water on my en
thusiasm. I could speak but a few words
of English, and even those were entirely
mispronounced. Several of my Polish friends
had acquired the English language and
spoke it like natives, but then they had
spent twenty years or more in the United
States. One of them had been almost forty
years in this country, understood and knew
the language perfectly, but said “hous
band” instead of husband; “vyter and al
vise'’ instead of waiter and always.
The example of the “old” captain was not
encouraging. Why should I succeed, where
a man of culture, who had sdent the greater
part of his life here, had failed. At the
bottom of this lack of courage there was the
innate Slavonian diffidence. As far as 1869
two of the most prominent French dramatic
authors, MM. A. Dumas’ son and Legouve,
had urged me to try my fortunes on the
French stage. I was sorely tempted to do
so, as I possessed some knowledge of the
language, and it would have been compara
tively easy to complete my study cf it.
That a success in Paris could assure a repu
tation through the whole world was well
known to me. But my diffidence was
stronger than my ambition. Tho apprecia
tion of my countrymen seemed to have
satisfied all my desire for glory, and I re
fused the invitation.
And how, iu San Francisco, I had to
deafen my ears to that lurking voice in the
deep ieeess of my heart, that whispered to
mo to “Beware;” however, necessity, which
is the mother not only of invention, but
also of enterprise, stimulated my ambition
and my longiug for a return to the boards.
Besides, I suppose these misgivings in
herent to my Polish nature were counter
balanced in me to to a degree by a dash of
venturesome spirit, tho result of some drops
of gypsy blood inherited from a Hungarian
grandmother. I assumed a calm self-assur
ance very much in contrast with my inner
most perplexities, and quieted the anxieties
of my friends.
latoi co began to prepare for my work.
By a singular stroke of good fortune, I hap
pened to meet a young lady of Polish ex
traction but born in America. Miss Tuholsky
spoke excellent English. She con
sented to give me a daily lesson of one hour,
but through her friendliness this hour lasted
the whole day. From 8 o’clock in the morn
ing till 8 o’clock in the evening we toiled
together with hardly an interruption. 1
began to study the part of “Adrienne” in
the language which was to be henceforward
my own. After a short time I felt suie
that I should be able to master the tongue
sufficiently to accomplish my self-imposed
task.
SUCCESS OR SUICIDE.
This point being settled in my mind, an
other perplexity began to agitate me.
Shall I succeed? How will my acting be
received by these audiences so strange to
me? 1 had occasion to see some excellent
actors, as Charles Coghlan, William Flor
ence. and above all, Edwin Booth, whose
performance encouraged me. Dramatic
art as represented by those ex
ponents appeared to me as being the
same in America as in Europe. But
I saw also some bad acting, aud its success
frightened me. And then, will not my lack
of familiarity with the language interfere
with my performance? Will not my for
eign accent, my native intonation, render
my utterances ridiculous? Shall I be ac
cepted aud recognized, or only laughed at?
How ofteu did I brood over it, looking at
the waves of the beautiful bay of San Fran
cisco, and thinking if I should fail they
would tender me the welcome denied to me
by the inhabitants of this foreign country.
Another more urgent and more practical
question arose: How could I obtain an
opening? I had become acquaintei during
my first passage through San Francisco in
October, 1876, with John McCullough, then
manager of the California theater. Mr.
McCullough had been very courteous to me,
but unfortunately he was absent from
town in the first part of the sum
mer of 1877, when I presented myself
at the theater. His place was occupied
by his partner and stage mauager
Mr. Barton Hill. This gentleman had never
heard of me, and simply took me for one
of those ambitious amateurs, whom every
manager meets by hundreds, aud whose
importunities interfere greatly with his
daily business. He always avoided talking
English to me, and answered me in French.
Suppi sing I was a lady of society, struck
with a strong attack of stage fever, he did
not very much credit the story of my the
atrical experience in Poland.
I had not many scrap-books with me, as
I never indulged much in collections of
press comments, and what I had were
written in Polish, aud not intelligible to
him. True, I had a letter from the younger
Dumas, quite complimentary, and written
in French; but, unfortunately, it was not
explicit enough, aud the compliments were
based on hearsay, so it did not destroy the
incredulity of Sir. Hill, though it may
have shaken it a little. Bitter experiences
which tho theater had sometime before
sustained, both with foreign actors and
amateurs, perfectly justified Mr. Hill’s re
luctance to listen to one whom ho knew to
be a foreigner, and suspected to be only an
umateur.
A HUMILIATED QUEEN.
How often did I call without being re
ceived at the manager’s office. How often,
w lien 1 happened to meet him, was I di
imssed with a few polite words which, al
i hough not put iu the shape cf a direct ro
ftual, did not, however, contain any satis
toet ry promise. To my sense of increas
ing discouragement was joined a feeliug of
profound humiliation. 1 could not forget
uiy tucc.it* in the old country. I bad been.
in fact, a regular stage queen, and now to
realize that l was nobody was a sensation
akin to that of a royal decheance.
In the meantime, however, my friends
interceded with the ma- agement iu my
behalf. Gen. Kryzanovski, Gov. Salomon,
and CoL Hinton, a newspaper man who
hid heard me recite in Polish, and with an
enthusiasm inherent in his noble nature,
had espoused my cause, urged Mr. Hill so
much that at last he consented to give me a
bearing. It seemed somehow strange to
me to have to jmss through this kind of ex
am ination, but I was only too glad to per
ceiveevena slight ray of hope.
When I arrived at Mr. Hill's office with
my teacher, Misr Tuholsky, he looked a
perfect picture of resignation, expecting a
dreadful bore.
“I can only give you ten minutes,” he
said, “but you will excuse me if I am sin
cere and severe.”
“Very well, but please be attentive and
don’t interrupt me.”
I played for him the last act of * ’Adrienne,”
most of which is a soliloquy. Miss Tuhols
ky gave me the cues, and the stage was a
small office, with one chair for all the fur
niture.
When I finished, I asked: “Well, will you
give me a night in your theater?”
“You can have a whole week, or more if
you desire it.”
The manager had been moved, and a thrill
passed through me when I saw him fur
tively wiping his eyes.
This occurred at the end of July, 1877,
five months after the beginning of ray los
sons. Fortunately, a few Jays afterward
Mr. McCullough arrived. Mr. Hill must
have made a favorable report to him, for 1
soon received a summons to a rehearsal on
the stage. The rehearsal, cf course, suc
ceeded better than the private hearing, and
Mr. McCullough seemed to be even more
enthusiastic on my account than Mr. Hill.
In a short time the papers announced the
approaching appearance for a week in
August of anew star, Helena Modjeska, a
Polish actress.
Mr. McCullough and Mr. Hill did every
thing in their power to assure my succe s.
They gave me very good support, Tom
Keene, then the leading man of the com
pany, was an excellent “Maurice De Saxe.”
and Henry B. Edwards played “Michon
net,” and a true and kind “Nichonnet” he
was to me on and off the stage.
A SUCCESSFUL DEBUT.
When the day of my performance ar
rived my friends were much more anxious
than myself. I had lost that nervous fear
which I could not shake off in Poland. The
satisfaction of treading again the boards of
a theater made me feel quite at home. The
audience was not very large, but exceed
ingly well disposed aud kiud, and that
helped, 1 am sure, to make the performance
a smooth one.
The applause which I received sounded to
me like a hearty welcome to tho American
stage. Next morning, after reading the
papers, aud after the visit of a few man
agers, anxious to secure anew star, I could
send to my husband (who was lying sick in
the mountains of South California! a tele
gram containing one single word, “Vic
tory.”
Anew career in a how country was
opened to me, and tho waves of tho Bay of
San Francisco no more called mo to their
cold embrace.
RICHES IN OLD HATS.
A New Yorker Who Finds a Habit of
the Jobbers Very Profitable.
From the New York Sun.
No one would ever imagine that thoro
could be any caste in the old hat business,
but there is a man in this city engaged in
that humble calling who would be disposed
to knock you down if you namod him in the
same day with tho peripatetic vagabonds
who go about buying up old hats. This
man is an artist in his profession. He has
regular customers, and they are confined
exclusively to the hat jobbers.
When an out-of-town customer visits the
city to buy goods tho first thing the jobber
does is to remark that tho hat he is wearing
is a little shabby.
“Just a little dusty,” the customer will
probably remark, remembering that he had
put on anew hat when he left home.
But, the jobber, knowing that a little per
sonal attention is alway r s profitable, will
not be convinced. He takes the man’s hat,
throws it under the counter, and presents
him with one of the best he has in stock.
These old hats soon accumulate in the busy
season, running up to as many as a dozen a
day. Iu a majority of cases they are prac
tically as good us new. It has been re
marked, however, that customers from
Connecticut, New Jersoy and Philadelphia,
knowing that they are sure to get a fine
new hat free of charge, always put on their
most dilapidated headgear when th y are
leaving home.
How our friend over “caught on” will
never bo known. A quarter apiece is the
orthodox price he pays, and he makes a
round of the jobbing houses every day.
At home his trade as a hatter serves him
in good stead. The bats are supplied with
anew sweatband and liuing, and many of
them find their way into the smaller hat
stores, where they are sold as brand new.
And our friend has a big bank account.
Queer Peta From Alaska.
From the Portland Oregonian,
The steamship George W. Elder arrived
in the Harbor Sunday night, after a very
cola and eventful voyage to and from
Alaska. The young eagle which was caught
in the nest on Alaskan shores three months
ago and presented to Cant. Hunter is still
on the ship, which it shows no disposition
leave. No sooner hail the reporter stepped
from tho gangway to the deck than the bird,
which is now only half grown, and uhout as
large as a wild goose, spied the arrival and
came hopping toward nim, and, perching
on a rim of the fore-hatch, prepared him
self to swallow an expected dainty morsel.
The eagle is becoming a favorite with the
sailors, and, being allowed his freedom,
grows more independent as the days go by.
The ship’s carpenter stated that he has shot
a bird of the same species in Alaska measur
ing 9 feet 2 inches between the tips of the
wings.
Besides having aboard the “royal bird of
liberty” and a number cf cats, there are
also two young Alaskan deer, which skip
lively about the decks, as if glad that they
have at last left behind tho region of ice and
cold weather.
~ ~~ MEDICAL.
When The Face
Is constantly covered with eruptions, the
need of a blood-purifier is plainly indicated.
Washes and external applications are of
no avail. The poison must he thoroughly
eliminated from the system by stimulating
the action of the liver and kidneys, which
orgaus have become sluggish and inopera
tive, thereby throwing upon the skin the un
natural work of cleansing the system of its
impurities. What is needed is Ayer's Sarsa
parilla—tlie best of blood medicines.
“ My face for years was covered with pim
ples anil humors, for wlijeh I could find no
remedy till I liegan to take Ayer's Sarsapa
rilla. Three bottles of this medicine effected
a thorough cure. X can confidently recom
mend it to all suffering from similar troubles.”
Madison Parker, Concord, Vt.
“I had been troubled for some time with an
eruptiou of the skin which, till I was induced
to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, defied all efforts
to cure. After taking two bottles of this
medicine, the eruption began to disappear,
and with the Ihiril bottle It left me entirely.”
