No part of a theateT offers the same
opportunities for concentrating the at
tention and mind upon a play as the
balcony. AS a rule people seek the
first five rows of chairs in the first
heaven" of an opera house for the pur-
post of study. The dstracting features
of the big auditorium are left behind
and the mind settles freely. quietly and
strongly into the small world between
the lines of the proscenium. Have you
not noticed that bit of stage humor
strikes the balcony first? and reaches
the main audience later, if at all? Nine
times out of ten it is the balcony that
detects strong stage work and begins
the applause. From there it falls and
is taken up by the house. The balcony
is equally keen at fault finding; in
fact, is more critical, and, as a rule,
comes very near reaching the nc
merits of the play and players.
1t is little to say that the balcony
was charmed with Saturday night
entertainment. There We're presen'
army officers, professional men, school
teachers of both sexes, travellers and
others who had seen the worlds best
talent in Twelfth Night. But the sen
timent was unanimous that Janet Wal
dorf and her company We're, straieh,
through, second to none in this SUI

the matter was soon dropped. Never

dent Grant prepared short message
recognizing the Cuban insurgents.
The Business interests" of New
York heard what was proposed and
were alarmed; they hastened to bring
through their representative in the
cabinet, the secretary of state, pres
sure to bear upon the president to
kill the proposition.
The secretary, an affable and ac-
commodating old man demonstrated
with President Grant and wrote q
long opinion arguing that according to
international law we had no right to
recognize the insurgents. The presi-
dent did not profess to know much
about international law; the secretary
did, and so, in the presidents message
for that year, the long argument
against recognition found a place, and
the short decision for recognition did
