THE FAIR BUT FALLEN ,
> Ira. Itciietliet ol' DCS Moiues MakcH
an Urgent Appctil loc'JIioni.
The Presbyterian church waa filled
yesterday afternoon with an attentive
audience , listening to the earnest words
of Mrs. Benedict , of Des Moines , who
las gained a wide reputation by her work
and words in behalf of fallen women.
She urged that those upon whom fell
the duty of executing the law would not
deem it a hardship to send a fallen wom
an to the penitentiary for a long term.
The prison at Anamosa was apalaco com-
larcd to lifoiin any of the brothels of
; his city. Time , long time was needed
o got alcohol , nicotine , and morphine
out of those poor creatures. Time , long
time was needed to get them in such phy
sical condition that they couldrreasaort
heir womanhood and go forth with
strong wills itobattlo again in Jifo nnd
keep themsoIvoB puro. Govorcar Sher
man had caused separate apartments for
, ho women in thopenitentiary , to bo ar
ranged and the legislature hod furthered
and endorsed his action , so that female
criminals were now under the eoto .con
trol of Christian women and the , pomton- '
; iery made more of a reformatory inetitu
tion for them.
It was largely duo to her ollorta that
the last legislature passed the now law in
regard to brothels , makii the penalty a
; orm in the penitentiary. She explained
the now law in detail to the audience
yesterday , and endeavored to show that
the mothers of Iowa had eecurud it not
with footings of harsUneRS or severity ,
but from tondornoeaand necessity.
Mrs. Benedict referred to the visit she
made to Council Blulla a year and a half
agn. She was then informed that two
young girls had been left at Belle Clover's
house by a railway man , and that one
was about to bouoino a mother , and that
the child had been itold to a lifo of shame ,
should it bo apirl , before its breath bad
been drawn. Hliu had corroborated thin
statement by visiting the house , and in
quiring of the girls their story. The
railway man had promised to marry her.
A dny or two Ago , ainco nrrivint ; in th
city this time , she had nskec
Belle Clever wlmt lind become o
thcso girls , and was told that they were
in n house in Lincoln now. This wns the
way with nuny. Dot rayed by man , to
cover their shatno , they sought rcfuqo iu
these houses , nnd were there kept undei
the iiitlupnco of morphine , alcohol and
nic itinc , until they had f.illon too far to
riao ngiln. Meanwhile the ninn went on
his way without degradation or punish ,
moiit.
She cited nnothor inslauco of n bonuli
ful Rirl whom she saw in Des Moines jai' ,
serving out n turm for keeping n house.
She told Mrs. Benedict her story of be
trayal and ilrsortion by the man whom
shn loved donror than life , and to whom
she oxiicctcd to bo n lawful wife. She
was a daughter of good old Presbyterian
people in Wiser nun. The little
daughter born to hur she hnd placed
under the Christian protection of the old
homo , nnd aho hnd gene into a lifo ol
shame , being unnblo to stand the snubs
of these who know her history. She had
frtllou lower and lower. Meanwhile her
seduoor had risen , been praised by the
people , nnd nlncod in the legislative
hnlls. The women who hnd secured this
now law proposed to change this order of
things somowhnt.
Mrs. Benedict spoke eloquently of the
inlluonco of woman over mini , to pull him
down or to lift him up. In referring to
the fact th.it woman wns the first to fall ,
yet fihowaa tempted by Satan himself , the
nrjh-fiend , who had so much power that
ho hnd caused angels to fall. But limn ,
who fell next , hnd simply to bo prnll'ered
the fruit by the woman , nnd ho did ont.
Man tint fell by the temptation of n fallen -
on wouinu
She gnvo n very interesting account of
the work being done by the homo iu Ues
Monies , nnd nt tlio close of the address

His Visit to 1'rcHlilont Arthur.
Irving wont moro than once to the
White House , and was greatly impressed
with the dignified informality of ono of
its evening receptions.
"No ceremonious pomp , no show nnd
yet an air of conscious power , " ho said ;
"tho house might bo the modest country
seat of an English noble or wealthy com
moner , the President the host receiving
his intimate frionda. No formal an
nouncement * : presentations made just aa
if wo were in a quiet country houso.
Soon after supper , when the ladies took
their leave and moet of the gentlemen
with them , E and oao or two others wont
into the President's room and chatted , H
fear , until morning. It was to mo vary
onjoyablo. President Arthur would
shine in any society. Ho has a largo ac
quaintance with the best literature , dra
matic and generalils ; apt at quotations ,
an excellent story teller , a gentleman
and a good follow. When I had said good
night , and was on my way to the hotel !
: ould not help my thoughts wandering
jack to thoughts of Lincoln and Gat-field ,
whoso portraits I had noticed in promi-
lent positions on the walls of the IT/xacu- /
; ivo mansion. I remember Mr. Noah
Brooks , of Now YorK , tolling us the story
> f Lincoln's death , and how ho was to
mvo boon in the bax with him at the
-heatro that same night , nnd how vividly
10 recounted the chief incidents of. the
Tagudy. And Garfield I can quite un-
lorstand that terrible business making
lia succesoor prematurely old , called , -as
10 was , into oflico under .such painful cir
cumstances and with so great reaponbibil-
ty. A distinguished American was toll-
ng mo yesterday that only the wisest
discretion nnd self-denial in
personal - re-
; ard to the filling of ollicea saved Ameri
ca from the possibility of riot and blood
shed. Ifo said Arthura'a singularly quiet
administration of affairs the ono necessi
ty of the umo would bo taken into ac
count at the polls if ho is nominated for
ro-olocttott. "

Speaking of the hatred of wealth , I
observe a great deal uf rancor between
mllipnaires themselves. Gould and Wan-
dorbilt are reported to loathe each other.
! t U only lately that the As tors nnd \ Vanderbilt -
dorbilt came to speaking terms. When
Villard wont under , tbo expressions of
delight were > by no means confined tenon
non who had envied him in prosperity.
And now that Jim Kcone is suffering a
lisaster there is positive hilarity among
Wall strootora. It Booms to mo
hat a mob which should pillage ono mi-
ionairo'n property would be encouraged
ind abetted by most of the millionaires.
L'ho joy is tjuito .unconflncd over Keono'n
downfall , however , on account of his per
sonal obnoziouBuess. Few inon wont
icar tn him , on no matter hovr trivial
.ho business , without going away invot-
'rnto enemies. Ho had a needloes harsh ,
nsulting manner , &nd rarely modiflod it
on any occasion or to anybody. It is not
nanly or courageous to strike a dead lion ,
jut there are few men in Wall street who
are not this week doing it.

N'ow York Journal.
A correspondent , < vho is evidently a
young woman , writes to ask what ii the
ixponao of going upon the etago as a star
and what is the chance with some ability
of proving a success.
The question , fortunately , is any easy
one to answer. With ability , determina
tion , good health , adaptability and study ,
about § 100,1100 will do what the correspondent
pendent desires. In two or three instances -
stances which may bo named , § 00,000
has not been sulliciont. It is quito possi
ble that double the amount would do. It
coat Mrs. Agnes Booth about that sum of
money to beeomo n star and ho dm not
succeed. Fully § 50,000 was spout in
Booth's theatre to accomplish the purpose ,
Vet Mrs. liocth unquestionably is one of
[ ho best stock actresses in the country.
Among all the twenty or thirty female
stars now playing in America there is not
ono of them wo can think of who did
mas lone ; and arduous years in the stock
joloro becoming a Btnr , _ and thun the
Hiaition of star was obtained through the
Business ability of some manager who
ionsentod to lose money for a long time
joforo any was made. It waa in this
nannor that Aunustin Daly nt.idn a etar
of Fanny Davenport , Olara Morris , and
Agnes Ethel , the latter of whom still
ivus , but only as a memory. When they
auncliod out for themselves they wore
already mado. The Rubicon had boon
mssed.
When actresses of decided ability fail
n their attempts to impress themselves
on the public as stars , what can bo ox-
looted for novices whoso only capital is
nonoy and a supreme confidence in them-
olvoai The various attempts of Miss
ilario Prescott , n very valuable
voman in a stock company , to become a
tar , have cost her and her backers fully
hirty or forty thousand dollars , and yet
ho has not succeeded. Mistress Helen
Ltrry , who occupied some good positions
n England , and is n woman of no moan
alont , has made several attempts to push
lerself forward. Last year aim failed at
ho Union Square theater and failed with
a piecn called "Arkwright'n Wife. " The
experiment cost about § 17,000 and noth-
ng came of it. This year she tried at
ho same theatre with "Tho Fatal Lot-
or , " which proved A fatal mis-
ako. She had engaged the theatre for
our weeks at a rental of § 1,800 a week
lor advertising , lithographs , drcsaos
conory and salaries coat her about § 1.
iOO a week more. After the experiment
tad lasted two weeks the funds sank so
o\v that she resolved to withdraw from
ho disastrous battle. But her rent had
cost her § 7,200 and her other expenses
; ( i,000 morn. As against this the re
ceipts showed an average of a trillo ever
§ 100 a night so that the not losa was
about § 12,000. Yet Miss Barry is by no
nnans a bad actress. Another lady with
a French name tried "Catnillo" in the
same way at the aamo theater two seasons
ago. She failed and lost § 10,000.
Last year a Russian lady tried this
same unfortunate "Uamillo" at the Fifth
AVDIIUO. She had been reported to
i > o worth a great deal of money. Her
actual paid losses were said to be in tha
0110 week over § 4,000 , and yet she sud
denly disappeared owing § 3,000 mr.ro to
various people and to the members of
the thoatro. The losses , therefore , were
§ 1,000 a night against a receipt > of an
average of § 75.
It may therefore plainly bo soon that
when actresses of some standing can lose
such sums as this in the endeavor to star
> nd in the short space of a for/ weeks ,
novices should not attempt the business
at all with less than from § 50,000 to
§ 100.000. And then if they make
enough reputation through it to 'be after
wards accosted in some good stock com-
iany they are doing very'irell. There
irowomen ) | who deliberately go to work
to lose § 10,000 or § 15,000 in < the prov-
minccswhoro the oney lasts much longer
hon in Now York ) to give themselves
aufliciont name to receive engagements
rom some manager when their money is
gone. That is what Miss AAolo 'Bolgardo '
and some others did who uro not in fair
> ositions.
The only American actress of firstclass
ank who roao from amatourship is Miss
tlary Anderson , and what helped her im-
nensoly was local sentiment. She made
ler appearance first in Louisville as a
outhern girl and then wontto NowOr-
eans aa Lady Macbeth. She hardly did
ny business , but the papers were very
cind to her bt'cauao oho was southern ,
iid for two whole seasons shakopt to the
outii , being announced everywhere aa
ho southern star. Thus in time she got
Hers of engagements in the north and
> y that period had developed seine abil-
ty. But it waa three years nftor that
ho started and before she ventured into
few York and it is on record that
ho played four weeks hero without
jotting one penny for her cervices. That
s to say , she never drew enough busi-
nous to roach the sum at which her share
n the receipts began. But the reception
ho received from the Now York proas
ottlod her position , and when she ro-
crnod hero the following year aho made
lonoy , It is probable that.if Miss Mary
indorson had began her career by study-
n ( ; for a debut in this city she would
never more hava been hoard.of.
The managers are glad enough when
heao girls or women happen alon to
ent the house at exorbitant prices.
Success or failure is nothing to thorn :
> ut perhaps a worse system of pushing
mesolf ahead cannot bo devised than
hat , which has ruined so many hopeful
aspirants and sent them back into the
obscurity whence they came.

The Now York Clearing House is an
association of the banks of this city for
ho purpose of facilitating tlio settling of
accounts between themselves. It is done
as follows ; Every morning each bank
nakes up the lists of chocks that it holds
gainst each of tlu > other banks belonging
u the Clearing house , and to which they
ro sent by clerks at u fixed hour. There
he checks that all the other banki
jold againit each individual banl > uro
igurud up uid oxclmngod. Tlio bauku
hut are "in debt to the Clearing Houao"
nust nay the balance due it before ona
t'clock. At a later hour the "creditor

ho sum duo them. Ihus a vnry largo
mount of diirorenctjfl between banks am
ettlcd moro oxpcditiously tluin could bo
done if each bank settled Its accounts
separately with every other Imnk.
Among the rules and regulations that
each bank imist ngreo to before admit
tance to the Clearance House , is that all
chocks upon any bank belonging to the
association must bo taken in settlement
of accounts as being good between them.
If in the Exchanges any bank has depos
ited n chock drown upon nnothor Innk
where Iho account has not the money to
its credit , the b.xnk upon which tlio check
is drawn must present it to the bank
that deposited it in the Clearing House ,
and it must refund tlio money upon pre
sentation at its counter. It cannot go to
the Clearing House and Imvo tlio chock
innde jjood. This rule of the Clearing
Housa is what is creating such a stir at
the present time.
On the day that the Marino bank fail
ed the checks it brought to the Clearing
house amounted to § 1,1100,000 , among
which was ono drawn by Ferdinand
Ward upon the First National bank of
fcow York , for § 215,000. The chocks of
all other banks brought in against the
Marino bank amounted to § 1,82BOCO ,
leaving the Marino bank "in debt to the
Clearing houso" § 525,0f 0. The Marino
bank had only $200,000 in cash with
which to pay its dill'erence. The news
that it could not meet its debtor batanco
How around with the swiftness that all
such news goes , and in a short time bank
ollicersvero at the Clearing house as
thick ns buzzards around a dead animal.
President Fish of the Marino bank was
there , looking as pale and ghastly as
though the ghost in "Hamlet" had sud
denly arisen in his own Booth's theater
and was calling him to account for his
niadeeda. A low of the bankers present
ivoru equal to the emergency. They said
-o him : "Bring us up collateral and wo
will loan you the amount necessary to
uako good the amount duo the clearing
louso. " Mr. Fish promptly produced
.ho bank's notes and loans on collaterals ,
vhen five of the banks each loaned him
? lf5,000 , making § . ' 125,000 , they select-
ng about $000,000 of paper to hold as
jollatoral for the repayment of the loan.
The sum thus furnished paid the clearing
louse debt.
Just as the operation was finished Mr.
icholiold , the cashier of the First Na-
ional bankappeared with the Ferdinand
iVnrd check of § 215,000 , and said that as
Ward had only § 1,200 to his credit in
ho bank ho wanted the Clearing House
o assume the chock. The wary bankers ,
lowovor , did not BOO it , and several of
hem told him to go and got collateral for
t from President Fish , of the Marino
jank , who , at that time , was willing to
do anything. Mr. Sohoflold , however ,
"hesitated on the brink , " and lot the
roklon hour pass away. When Prosi-
lout Baker , of the First National bank ,
c.imo it was "too Into , " and so that bank ,
without any fault of its own ( except the
lositation on the part of the
cashier to got security when ho
could have done so ) , is lot in for a loss ,
which , from present appearances , will
amount to a cool § 100,000. Of course it
can stand it , for that bank has made a
"pot of money" out of the government
by refunding its loans , but yet its ollicers
do not sco the fun in losing it in the man
ner described. It will probably result in
m alteration of the rules of the Clearing
liouac , so that a check drawn on a bank
where the account is not good may be re
turned to the Clearing house and a rear
rangement of debit and credit balances
mudo before final settlement.
