18 THE STAGE EVIL? The world is full of people who be lieve that no actress can be a good woman—simply because she Is an ao- tress, s It Is quite as logical to accept It as an Indisputable truth that all preach ers of the gospel are good men—be cause they ure preachers—or that all oranges are sour because there are sour oranges.

And in the light of Is known of him os a matrl- asset, Bonl will not be much 1 by marriageable ladles with ch of husbands. lie sees on the other side of the foot lights Is apparent to all who are thoughtful and unprejudiced. And that this Is true Is unfortunate—no less unfortunate for the stage than for the public. ( It Is unhappily true that a great deal that Is wicked has Its Inspiration and Its being In the theatrical world. But. are there not other institutions than the stage where evil flourishes quite as openly and vice Is flaunted even more boldly In the face of re spectability? Whether the Influences of the stage are good or bad Is a subject which might be discussed ad Infinitum with- out [materially altering the present opinions of those who might b.e parties to the argumont. The generalities here indulged, however, suggest this thought: Is not that eminently re spectable and ever uncompromising element of Boclety which brands as hopelessly evil the Btage and all Its allies, largely to blame for the very conditions which are so loudly de plored? Brand an honest man as a criminal, clothe him In stripes and cast him into prison; then place him back among his former associates. The latter shun him, distrust him, os rtactse him, and the chauceB are twenty to one that he will, after vain, ly struggling to regain that of which he has been robbed, go down Into law lessness and degradation. It Is so with the stage. A good woman turns to the theatrical profes- ston because her talent bids her enter Its tnvtttng portals. She succeeds. Then ehe turna to society that It may express its gratification at her tri umph. ’ But society shrugs Its very proper shoulders and says: ‘fYou? You are a stage woman, therefore an evil creature, to know whom would contaminate my respectability. Ex cuse me I" The picture Is not overdrawn. It Is the way of the world. Is It any won der, then, that Actors and actresses become first cynical, then hard, and, finally, reckless? Human nature Is .pretty much the same the world over, and those who follow the glamour of the stage are apt to be very human. The stage has much that Is bad. That Is to be deplored But It also bus much that Is good, which should not be forgotten, and would be a great deal better If the attitude of society toward It were different ONE MORE REFORM. The Russian government never does anything out of tho ordinary routine of oppression and double dealing ex cept when li becomes frightened. Then It. either orders out troops to shoot obedience Into the people or, when for any reason this Is Impracti cable, grants reforms or concessions. A case In point Is the Issuance of an order of the Imperial government to the governors of provinces directing that persons arrested for political of fences .shall, within twenty-four hours following such arrest, be confronted with charges and "periuttted to offer explanations" — In other words, be given a hearing. This - concession is the result of the recent tremendous outcry against the arbitrary action of local authorities In all parts of the Empire In arresting suspects and hold ing them without trial, and in some *» cases even decreeing exile < by mere process of administrative" order. The government turned a deaf ear to re peated complaints until the. public dis content became too great to be longer Ignored, and, tho ‘case-not' being one In which cold lead could be effectively employed, the concession so long sought was begrudgingly made.
