The
dismal
story
of
ventures
in
other
places
is
quickly
told
.
Mr
.
Daly
saw
no
one
save
by
appointment
.
Carrie
waited
an
hour
in
a
dingy
office
,
quite
in
spite
of
obstacles
,
to
learn
this
fact
of
the
placid
,
indifferent
Mr
.
Dorney
.
“
You
will
have
to
write
and
ask
him
to
see
you
.
”
So
she
went
away
.
At
the
Empire
Theatre
she
found
a
hive
of
peculiarly
listless
and
indifferent
individuals
.
Everything
ornately
upholstered
,
everything
carefully
finished
,
everything
remarkably
reserved
.
At
the
Lyceum
she
entered
one
of
those
secluded
,
under
-
stairway
closets
,
berugged
and
bepaneled
,
which
causes
one
to
feel
the
greatness
of
all
positions
of
authority
.
Here
was
reserve
itself
done
into
a
box
-
office
clerk
,
a
doorman
,
and
an
assistant
,
glorying
in
their
fine
positions
.
“
Ah
,
be
very
humble
now
—
very
humble
indeed
.
Tell
us
what
it
is
you
require
.
Tell
it
quickly
,
nervously
,
and
without
a
vestige
of
self
-
respect
.
If
no
trouble
to
us
in
any
way
,
we
may
see
what
we
can
do
.
”
This
was
the
atmosphere
of
the
Lyceum
—
the
attitude
,
for
that
matter
,
of
every
managerial
office
in
the
city
.
These
little
proprietors
of
businesses
are
lords
indeed
on
their
own
ground
.
Carrie
came
away
wearily
,
somewhat
more
abashed
for
her
pains
.
Hurstwood
heard
the
details
of
the
weary
and
unavailing
search
that
evening
.
