This is part of what she said: "The life of the

Once the part is learned the brain need work no
more. The nerves, the sensibilties, the strug-
giles for emotion, they are what color and
what occupy the actor. 1t is for this reason in
general there are so many stupid actors
and actresses; and who says stupid
often says gross and immoral l have
never, up TO the present time, found true
friend in the theater. 1t would be as well to
put aside the narrow envies, the little rival
resin word. 10 become like other people.
Duse says that with her cos tune she takes off
all remembrance of her performance, and
that as soon as possible after performance
she gets far away from the theater. Her pop
ular authors, TO judge by the books seen in
her room, were Maete -linck, Carlyle, E. chy-
lus Sophocles ana Petrarch.

New York, May 4. The publication, soon
after midday, of tn Qualifications OF the
Dingley tariff bill, prosposed by the Senate
Finance Committee, started an advance in
Sugar, that left that stock 3 Is points
higher than last night. After the summary
of the bill was made public, the buying OF
sugar refining became urgent The ie-
vival of speculative activity in Sugar
stimulated trading throughout the list. In
consequence the majority OF stocks closed
higher than yesterday. Other consi!era-
tions that helped more hopeful senti-
ment were prospects that the Senate viii
begin the consideration OF its Finance Com
mttee's report in the near future, evidence
that there will be no more exports OF
specie this week, trustworthy reports OF an
Improvement in the condition OF the anthra-
cite coal trade, aud reassuring adyces from
Chicago, in regard to the passage of the
consolidated gas bill. Manhattan Railway
and Missouri Pacific were exceptionally
weak, and though they recovered nearly
point in the late trading, they did Iot
close higher than yesterday, In fact,
Missouri Pacific, together with American
Tobacco and a few other stocks, sus-
tanned fractional net declines. Reading,
Tennessee Coal and iron showed net gains
of about per cent. The close was strong.

As the sugar schedule is at present there

it will not ruin the trust After all tile
talk about the killing the sugar trust and
the other trusts as enemies of the people,

schedule is almost ludicrous as a result.

This will leave the adIninistr alive feature

upon the act of 800, which was not ma
