BRUSSELS, Feb. 2.-Nesterday was a
day of great excitement in this city
The military classes recently drafted
into the Belgian army to cope with
radical riots, were promised a months
leave of absence. This was granted to
those stationed in the provinces, but the
authorities thought best, owing to The
threatening condition of affairs, to with
hold the leave for the present from those
stationed in Brussels.
Yesterday the drafted men showed
their discomfort by persistent disobedi-
ence of orders, and finally they left the
barracks and held meetings in various
places, protesting against what they
claimed TO be an injustice. done them.
They were joined by workmen's clubs
who sang the Marseillaise. The police
interfered, and compelled the men to
return to their barracks, arresting sew
eral of the more disorderly. The mutt
nous spirit shown has excited the gravest
apprehensions, as such conduct is uneX-
ampled in Belgium, and indicates that
the Socialist feeling is gaining ground
even in the army.

Another girl, with n good voice, and ap-
p~arently tho Same dramatic properties IA
eyes, md will say the lines looking here
and there and yet nowhere in particular,
thus robbing them of all interest.
What kind of a girl do we like best to
train for an a~ctressl
Well! 1t is hard to tell exactly, because
the subtle element enters into the compost
tien SO largely, that, given all the qualities
which / am about to enumernte. u young
woman might yet come to US and be refused
admission. We first consider her national
ity. The French and Irish are the best, as
they are the most adaptable and suscepti-
BILE. The Germans are next, IL we except
Americans, VINO, being a mixture or all
nationalities, are brightest of all. There
are roles upon the variety stage which
make Americans Invaluable, and their
ready wit makes them quick to learn 4
part and notice those points which upon Il
first night take best with an audience. The
English, especially English men, are good
in society plays.
Among the Americans the down-easterf
are the hardest to train. They are brainy
and smart and have q natural business fac
ulty, but thew do not do we'll in roles OF
sentiment. 1t is the southern girl, with
her sensitive temperament, emotional ma
ture and dreamy eyes who can move her
audience and carry her hearers with hel
through all the varying lights and shades
of domestic life inwrought with unhappi-
ness and tragedy.
AS to height, it is a great disadvantage tc
be short, because however artistic one may
become in adding an assumed height TIC
ones own stature, the actor can never quite
overcome the defect with which nature has
handicapped him. If an actress, she will
always find that it is difficult for her tC
play stately or commanding parts. Ii she
is slight she can add to her height bv max.
ing conspicuous her litheness and slender
ness.
Vocal quality, vocal expression and pan
tomimic action must all be taken into &C
count in examining the qualifications of 49,
pirants. Some people nave naturally {
voice, q good walk and an expressive face
Others have to acquire these. The former
are fortunate, while the latter are not, but
these things are wholly aside from the dra-
matic instinct. Without this last an actress
is never a success, beautifully gifted though
she may be. But give her this instinct anc
she is a success from the beginning, be-
cause she had that which cannot be &C
quired and to which all other things are
subservient.
