Court. The next appearance of Dora was in

New Orleans, where her. former social posi­

tion was unknown, anti where she was

thrown upon her merits as an actress for suc­

cess. It were needless to say that she failed

- The rest of the story is soon told. Aban­

doned by friends, home, husband and penal­

she fell—to use her own words :

Tell, to boirampled as filth in the street,

Fell, to,be stotred, to be splint,.

Cursing, •

Dreading to die,

Beling her soul to whoever would buy,

Dealing in shame for a morsel of bread,

Elating the living and fearing the dead.
