Midsummer is a dull time Inthenmnse
meut way, but as New lear s is the time
when we nro compelled to review our
deeds nud misdeeds for th yar that kas
gone, so the end of the theatrical year is
the time wbiu tbe records and tbe cash
books are made up iimoug the show peo.
pie. New York spends n pretty penny
to kup the wolf away from the doors of
tbe 14 principal places of amusement,
odiI yet Now York city nlone would not
support so many. It is rblimated that
the floating population of the city is
something like 200,000 -that is,.lhere are
about that number of non-residents bere
nil tbo time, nud upon tbem do the njan
ngers largely depend for the success of
their seasous. About $1,000,000 were re
ceived at the box offices of 13Theatrts
aud tbe Opera, last season not enough
to repair an irnn-cbi ' or to pay for th
wines and cigars of a Congressional Com
mittee on an investigating cruise. Of
this amount the Madison Square Theatre
(including lis travelling companies) took
in over S800 000. Booth's Theatre (Bern
hardt played at Booth's), $280,000, the
HHi Sin-itTlifntre, $210,000; WnllackV,
$180 000; the Standard, (where the btock
of Patieuco rirely gave out). $203,000;
Niblo's Garden, $198 000, and the The
atre Comiqiie. $225,000, I haven't time
to figure up how man; flmuel wnislcrals
for the Hottentots this would buy. nor
fur moralizing over the nmountnfgood
that tbe money would have doue even
among tin- poor of onr own city. And if
I did it would not make a particle of dif
ference. any more tbnn it would to tell an
old unoki r that tweuly-five cents a day
for clu'irs, is qual to $U0a year.nud that
$90 a year iuvtsted at compound interest
will, iu tlltv years, amount to enough to
pay a plumber's bill for au ordinary sea-
sou, lie recognizes tue vabtness of I no
ultimate result, and how gratifying it
would be to accomplish it, but if he fives
up his cigars the quarter would go some
where else in tbo way of self-gratification
aud wouldn't be sav;d up nt all for this
taste of luxury. So with the theatregoer
who leels au intense intirestin the wel
fare of the heathen, but nevertheless
could not give the money to them, even
if he reuouueed the druma.
It costs a round sum, nowadays, to
either fit up a theatre or to run a travel-
ingcompauy, aud the expense lnr sceuery
and costumes, for tbe elaborate plays of
tbe uast year have been enormous, to say
nothing ol salaries, rent, advertising, it
I. is a risky business aud tbo number ot
failurts iu it has becu greater than the
bucctss h. Thus, the theatrical world,
is au euticiug one to outsiders and, as a
general thing, they see only
tue r.osv SIDE.
Now and then a sketch or a par" graph
conferring n lending actress, goes 'he
round of tbo press, giving tbo term up
on which the "fortunate manager" has
boeu able to secure her services, or gos

ol theatrical life, uud uo wonder that
thousands of poor nud ambitious girls
are so fascinated by it as to be eager to
join tbu profusion nud substitute ease,
luxury, flattery aad fame for labor, pov
erty, loneliness nnd obscurity. It is a
pity that every duBe of such mental pois

something of the frightful Btruggle utceS'
sary for the ordinary young person to
gain a livelihood on the stngo aud, nt the
ssmo lime, to precervo her integrity aud

and fail. Let in 3 tell you a little story
to show
THE t-IIADT SIDE,
with the proviso thatitisnbsoluttly true,
save only such variation iu mluor details
as to prevent identification, Sittiug nt
the opera, ono night last winter, by the
sido of a geutleiuau of means nnd leisure,
whom I may designate simply ns a man
about town, he called my especial ttten-
tiou to a tuenibtr of tbo ballet corp-, u
tall, benutiful woman, with a mass of jet
bl'ick hnlr. but a fuco whose ghastly and
death-like pallor not even stage powder
or theatrical "make up" could couceal.
I know something of the physical signs
of health nud disenso mid I studied the
woman closely with my glass, as she went
through her part, with exact precision of
time, but with snob a manifest lack of
strength, that, nt times, she seemed on
the point of fainting. At length I said:
"That we nun is starviug to death!"
Yes," ho replied, "she will be dead in
six months, and she would eagerly wel
come tbieveut it it was not for her child,"
"You know her then? ' I naked, with a
epiiuk remembrance of numerous reports
of his bomewhnt adveutmous uud rapid
life. "Yes, aud a sadder story I dou'i
know thau her's. It is tbe custom to
look upon tbe women on the Mage as
doubtful characters, nt best, nuel upou
ballet dancers as already committed to
perdition, but there is not in ell tbe
audience, a woman more entitled to re
Bpect than she. Sometime I may tell
you her story, it is too long to give you

My curiosity wnsar msed and I studied
the faco of the dancer, It had been very
Oeautitul ami tho beauty nail, uy no

Tbe Congress having adjourned as an
ticipated in my last letter, it will perhaps
ba interesting to know bow the people's
money has been dispod of during the
Ression just closed. Well, hero it is
in brief: The net increase of appropria
tinns for tbe current fiscal year over thos
for 1B81 is $77,532 G21. Of this sum
$17.717.G91 is obargiable to the increased
demand upon tho pension fund, and an
additional sum or $1,750 000 had tube
appropriated for additional clerical force
in tbe Pension Bureau to enable It to keep
up with the increase ol its work. The
total appropriations for pensions this
year, iuclndlUR the Mlnunnee for extra
clerical fnrce-.nmonnt to $101.750,000,and
recently Mr. Piatt, noting chairman of
tbe Senate O' mmittee on Pensions, stat
ed, by way of information to tho 8i-nnie.
that n deficiency appropriation of $30,
000,000 would be necessary for the cur
rent year in order to meet the payment of
pensions. This will Increase the total
for the pensions to $131,700 000. The
river nud hirbnr bill this yn r exceeds
that of last year by $7 19G 075, of wbl h
nearly$5,000 000 was for the Mississippi
river. Nearly $1 000.000 more aro ap
propriated for the post office department
this year; $2 3G0 000 more for the legis
lative, executives and judicial depart
ments; $2,500,000 more in tbe sundry
civil, np vards of n million more for tbe
army, and as much more, for the navy.
The miscellaneous appropriations exceed
tb same of Inst year by $23 Of 6 938, and
for deficiencies 1883 gels $1.5G5.904 over
18S2. An analysis of tbo voting upon the
appropriations shows that both political
parties aro about equally responsible for
this extraordinary extravngancn of tbe
people's money aud that no great amount
of political capital can bn made on either
side upon striking the balance of respou
sibility.
The House leaves bebiud it about one

Upon the plains all about hero may be

of liny kind are raised, though wheat' la a

thing over 200,000 bushels in excess of
the amount required for home consump

couutry is better suited to grazing, and
that avocation is found to be easier and

southern part of the State aud In New
Mexico, that block run out all winter
withoutfeedlug aud corns oat pretty well
in the spring. It is astonishing how fat
they will become roaming over these
broad plains which look so barren, Tbe
short grass appears to be thin and worth
less, but as a matter of faot, appearances
art very iteciviutf,Jjj4bU .tana. This
.'buffalo grass'-'-. Is about four times as
nutritious, as tbe bf.st timothy. There
are srtiie very large cattle owners in
Colorado. Tho lale John 111 fl. who died
five years ngo, had nt the time of his
death nearly 100,000 bead, ou his range
cxteudiug nlong the Platte river to Julis-
burg on tho Usion PaoiCo road. Mr.
'atmer of Deuver has about 35,000 on
bin range a few miles from that city.
Aud there are others who bave from 10,-
000 to 00,000 head. This is also a fine
sheep oonutry, tbe dry climate rendering
them free from sucb Ills as scab, foot rot,
etc. Cattle and sheep men do not get
tolnng well together, however, as cattle
will not graze where sheep nre, and sheep
will soon destroy a grazing ground. On
this ncconnt there has beeu a great deal
of troublo between them in tbe past,
whole herds of sheep having been pois
oned in n night, resulting iu quarrels by
which soveral lives have been lost. Small
sheep herds aro to be seen in many, por
tions of the Stnto, but the ranges of tbe
big' herds commerce about Colorado
Sptings, thence south Into New Mexico.
Colorado ships a vast amount of wool to
the East every year. There nre n great
many Mexicans in Southern Colorado en
gaged iu sheep-raising, some of whom
have from 2,000 to 5 000 head. Tbe
Mexicnu sheep shear about four pounds
of wool per annum.
Tbe time when stock-raisers catch it is
on tho occasion of- such u bard winter as
they bad bere two years ago. At that
time bay sold at $300 per ton in tbe San
Juan country, though this is nothing
compared to tbe earlier days before irri
gation when hay sold at twenty five cents
per pouud, oud green grass was as scarce
as hen's teeth. It is related that in the
summer of 18G0 an old Frenchman made
ting little raise nt picking grass up
from what is called tbe Flowery District
ou an old horse. This grew in bunches.
about a rod apart, was about tbe thick
ness of n tiding whip, nnd from six to
eight feet long. Having no scales, the
old man used to count his buyout, giv
ing from tbrco to five stalks for a pound.
When this kind of hay was criticised by
bis customers, the good old man who did
bis mowing with a batcbet, was wont to
ay, "Ah, bare, I agree wis you. Zee
hay is n Ieetle conrse, but he is very suc
