of any other country think American
men are the manifest in the world. The
quietest men are usually the greatest
heroes. The most determined men are
usually the most courageous. 1t is not
The fellow who is continually gesticulat-
ing and tearing his hair and declaiming
In loud manner who may be depended
upon in a crisis. but the cool, calm,
manly chap who has little to say and
means great deal more than he says.
I'VE have all met the boastful, strut
Ting fellow, who is continually shouting
to all the world the great things he in
tends to do. He usually does nothing.
Now, because this quality il an inherent
part of American character. I think 1t
unnecessary to make passionate love
before an American audience.
''They understand.
zone continually hears actors and
managers decrying the intelligence OF
the general public. They say the people
out front are thick. You must exagger-
ate. You must drive your words and
your meaning into their skulls with q
sledge hammer and lots more Of such
arrant rot.
Il never held such an opinion. People
do not come to theater and pay their
money to find fault. They come to be
amused. They are not hypocritical and
wish the player to do we'll. Whenever
the audience does not seem amused by
my work know there is something the
matter with me or the lines am speak
ing and l try to discover wherein the
trouble lies and how to correct it.
Its all very we'll to delude ones self
with the idea chat the audience is not
intelligent and cannot understand, but

to such absurd self-satisfying argu-
ments. Indeed, you will usually ind 1t
Is the bad actor who has the bad audi
ence. II he would only diagnose his own
work from a viewpoint outside his own
ego he would find that he Is the stupid
person.
In my opinion the quiet school of
acting Is the thing-the calm, natural
style of diction which is just as convinc-
Ing as the gunpowder school OF declama-
ton. Passionate kissing is not at all
necessary to accentuate love scene be-
fore an American audience. There are
more ways than by exaggerated oscula-
ton to express ones affection. 1t might
be all very we'll in the demonstrauve
Latin countries, but Americans are not

This, too, is q fabrication. The onv
boat on the Dead sea is small sailing
boat about 20 feet long. The accom-
panying photograph gives an ides q
its appearance when lying at ane'sor
and the terminus on the shore at the
southern end of the lake. This vessel
makes trips. as the wind allows, from
the north end of the sea to the bay
on the eastern side Of the tongue that
divides the water near the middle.
Here at this terminus some Jews are
located. The whole concern Is, In fact,
in the hands of Jews. who, at low
rate, buy wheat and barley from the
Arabs, to be delivered on the seashore
From there it is shipped to the jericho
side and carried on donkeys to Jeru
salem, where it finds q ready sale at
good price. When adverse winds blow
the little craft Is in danger OF being
swamped, for the so-called Dead sea
becomes q living mass Of waves The
writer recently spent four nights such
as never will be forgotten on these
waters, and the smartness of the old
man at the helm and his boy with the
sails saved us from being wrecked
again and again. A charge OF one
mejedie (three shillings and four
pence) q trip is made for each passen-
ger, and for such q unique voyage 1t ~
not exorbitant. There Is some talk
about small steam tug being put on
the sea, but the authorities are 10th
to grant permission. It will be
great boon when, If ever, It does arrive.
as it will bring the east and west sides
of Jordan nearer to one another for
communication and trading purposes.

In Line of His Business.

A talkative barber in the Dorch ester
district of Boston is fond of entertain
ing his patrons by the relation of hor-
rible stories. my good fellow" said a
customer who was having his hair cut,
why do you always tell me such
shocking stories-such blood-curd]ing
details of the latest murder?" ooh, sir,
there is very simple reason for that"

odical revolutions was on, and he found
It necessary to seek exit from Colombia
by the back door, or down the OrinOco,
because the ports and main Travelled
roads were in control of his enemies.
Thus it CHANGED that the revolt which
sent him upon his wanderings was the
most profitable to the world that the
land of revolutions has ever produced.
He travelled $4,000 miles, and almost
every step was through regions hither-
to unknown to the pioneer of any race
or civilization.
Having begun a journey to save his
life, Reyes, the lust of the explorer and
adventurer aroused in him, continued
on and on, and science and trade have
him to thank for the result A canoe
trip down the Orinoco was followed by
q journey on foot along the banks of the
Yapura. He and his companions pro-
ceeded through entirely unknown re-
gions, for the greater part uninhabited
even by Indians, and at last reached the
great Amazon, where, building canoe,
he floated down to Para and the Allan
tic. Only a few months elapsed after
the completion of this trip before firm
of English ship owners availed them
selves of Reyes discoveries by placing
4 line of steamers along the route. A
trade sprung up that has developed into
one, of the best-paying industries on the
continent.
The chief explorers brother. Enrique
Reeves, died of fever, and the remaining
brother, Nestor, was killed and eaten by
cannibals near the headwaters OF the
Parana. The last of the party, his
nephew, Felipe Calderon, fell by poi
soned arrow from an unseen hand just
as they were upon the point of reaching
the frontiers of civilization again.
Such sacrifices, however, were not
made in vain, for Reyes proved what
had never been suspected before, that
South America from IS degrees south to
ten degrees north of the equator is sup
piled by nature with the finest water
system imaginable.
His work accomplished and the veil
of mystery which had hung so long over
the interior of the continent raised, Co.
lombia welcomed back the hero as en-
Enthusiastically as Ulysses was received
upon his return from his wanderings
following the siege of Troy. Party and
sectional lines were forgotten and the
people unanimously demanded OF the
government that he who had so honored
his native land be given recognition.
So the refugee was made minister pleni-
potentiary to France, and the Paris
Geographical society published In its
bulletins the record of his explorations.

 The adjutant general said that the Coast Artillery would not make the trip but would probably go into some United States fort in August, either Fort Ter ry or Fort Wright. The Naval Battal- ion will not go to Mantle, but is ex- pected to go aboard some United States ship.
