THE TROTBLES IN AUSTRIA.

The disturbances In the Austrian Reichsrath
are nj once simple and complex in their
origin and nature As elsewhere explained IN
these columns the source Of them Is in race
antagonisms The Austro Hungarian Empire
is the most complex political organism in the
world II comprises two Independent kingdoms,
sixteen paraments. a score or more or ma
tionalities or tribes, and five distinct social
castles. divided from each other by barriers as
impassab BILE as any Of those in India. The pres
ent troubles are confined almost exclusively
to the Cislethan half OF the realm, which is
also by far the more heterogeneous half. and
have their most intense centre in the ancient
kingdom Of Bohemia. The Germans and Czcchs
are contendng for supremacy. each intent upon
depressing the other. The Poles Slavs and
dozen more factions are joining in the fight,
some to help ore or the other OF the leading
combatants, some for their own supposed IN
terests. and some, apparently, for mere love
of turbulence The combatants have carried
their methods Of warfare far beyond ordinary
limits They have converted the supreme par
lament of the Empire into a place which 1t
would be fattery to call a bear-pit For weeks
the sttings have been free fights, with fist

knows a new Chamber would be as bad as

rule without parliament, unless 1t Is abso
lutely necessary.
Some fears are expressed that there may be
a revolution and dissolution Of the Empire
They do not appear TO be well founded. 1t is
true that the Germans of Bohemia are agi

Austria and it's union with Prussia. But they
have no chance OF success in that enterprise

The return OF Miss Ada Rehan. who arrived
yesterday from England. Is one OF those re-
mnders which occasionally occur OF the steady
growth OF reputation in art. Miss Rehan is the
best actress now in the American theatre, and
she stands at the head OF her profession She
has been on the stage since 1878, and she has
acted under Augustin Days management for
eighteen years Her progress. at first was grad
ual but a time arrived when close study and
continual practice eliminated in a complete
control OF her abilities and resources, together
with a thorough professional equipment. and
she then advanced with brilliant celebrity. and
by her excellent and Incompatible impersona-
lions Of Katherine and Rosalind, attained to
the first rank as an actress Of comedy.-the most

SHIPY4RDS AND SEA POWER.

The close and essential relationship between
cial greatness Is pointed out with admirable
clcarness by II writer In the current North
American Review" With the stock argument
OF the frce-ships advocates the country Is ia
mliar. If want great commercial ma
rine, they say we must buy our ships abroad.
for we can get them there more cheaply than
we can build them at home, and, Of course,
costly ships cannot hope to compete success
fully with cheap ones. The secret Of Eng
lands commercial supremacy. they say. is that
her ships cost less than ours. and they declare
that the law forbldding American register to
forcgnbuilt ships Is the OF the decline
of the American mercantile marine. This ar
gument is convncingly refuted by Mr.. Nixon
I'm the article referred to, and that by citing the
very example on which the argument itself Is
based.
England did not secure her control Of the sea
through cheap ships. but through ships far
more expensive than those Of her rivals, and
through ships. moreover, built ut home under
precisely such system as that Of this country
against which frec-ships advocates rage. I,
was In the latter half of the eighteenth cen
tury that England won the control Of the sea
and the opening years OF the nineteenth-say
from 1855 to 1915. During that period Eng

none but those she captured from the enemy
She forbade the East India Company to buy ol
to use any forelgn-but ship. She put all pos
sible obstacles In the way Of the purchase OF

difficult species Of stage art and the one In
which success Is only possible when trained
ability manifests itself In positive and decisive
achievement
Many persons have appeared in the theatre,
and have disappeared, since Ada Rehan began
her career-persons who, as DR.. Johnson says,
make themselves public without making them
selves known" Miss Rehan's acting has entered
into the experience OF thousands OF people, both
at home and abroad. and has had distinct in
fiuence upon the taste and feeling of her time
and therefore her reputation in art is an estab-
lished and permanent fact. From what know
OF Miss Ada Rehan" $50 wrote the poet Tenny-
son, when Mr.. DAILY was abou. to produce his
play Of THE Foresters'), Il am sure that she
will play her part to perfection" The remark
is apty indicative OF the feeling that the actress
has widely Inspired Such a feeling invariably
follows true reputation. and is the sign Of it,
Not single observer only. but the whole pub
lie. instinctively feels that the part undertaken
by Ada Rehan. whatever it may be- will be
played perfectly well.
The growth of reputation Is not widely OBJ
served while 1t is in progress, but it becomes
interesting and instructive in the RETROSPECT.
Miss Rehan. who has had great success in Eng
land comes back to New-York at time wher
her presence Is needed and when 1t Will bt
much valued Her past is the guarantee OF hel
future. She has gained her fame in the hghes
walks Of the drama.-presentng nothing bu
good and worthy plays.-and therein she ha!
shown herself conscious Of the responsibility
which rests UPON intellect and genius-thOs
priceless gifts, which were meant not simpl,
to be enjoyed by their possessor but to b'
used for the good Of the world.
