An Actors Personality.

Writing on this subject In the New York Mir
ror George Parsons Lathrop holds that the
actor does not mimic, but represents, and yet
does not abdeate his own thoughts and char
aeter. He insists that, if an actor could abso-
lulely merge himself in his part, he would be but
breathing puppet; and taking this position re-
verses the usual proposition. Here" he says,
q is an unalterable principle, running through
ali the arts. Within the limits of the possible
and the practicable, the more one accomplishes
with the fewer material and artificial resources
The greater Is the Triumph Of the artistic ideal.
wagner uses all tie resources he can get In
opera. but his results are cUmmenSufately large.
Browning almost more than eXhausts the re-
sources OF language in poetry, and his weakness
is mat he often eXpendS more words than are
warranted by The valu- gained. His strength Is
that he generally achieves sonnet thing that Is
worth ali the words lie has used, ana rises above
them. The writer and The painter who produce
their effect with the feWeSt unnecessary words
or strokes OF the brush stand at the head In their
respective arts.

AUSTRALIAN BALLOT LAVA. L. S. City.
Where 50 much has been said and written about
the Australian ballot law, 1t is too much TO ask
at this period to explain the system. What is
known as this system Of voting is virtually the
English system, slightly changed, and almost
the same system as used in Canada. Ballots are
not printed by The political parties, but by the
State, each ballot containing the names of all
the candidates Of all The parties for each and
every office, such names being in alphabetical
order. The electcr indicates his choice when
voting by mars ing check or cross In the margin
for That purpose opposite the name OF the eau
dldate of his choice. AL the lime of voting the
electors are admitted to a room, few at a time

WAVE PowER-J. r., City. The force ex-
erted by waves beating on the seashore can be
averaged. II has been ascertaned that rolling
wave, twenty feet high, will exert force OF
about one ton per square foot. The action of
waves Is most destructive at low water line
While the extreme height of mid ocean waves Is
estimated TO be from twenty TO twenty-five feet.
Inc average force OF ocean waves has been esti-
mated 10 be GIL pounds per square foot during
summer and 2086 pounds during the winter
months. During a heavy gale a force of 1888
pounds was ascertained. Such wave-power
machine was in partial operation some years ago
on the Ocean Beach. beyond the Cliff House; but
the inventor neglected to provide for the extra
energy developed in the waves by rough weather
and the motor was wrecked.
