GLOBE THEATER,

To please deemed the main thing, and 1t signifies very
little how this main thing Is accomplished At some
sacrifice of decacy and neatness Mr. setson Ia winning

they were certainly welcomed with eager avtdity and
sonorous paudts. There 10 pretense Of addressing
the judgment and culture Of the community and
to compliment the performances on artistic grounds
would therefore be absurd. Talent, indeed, b en-
ployed but 1t Is not employed In earnest spirit or to
ends that worthy OF thought Doubtless, however
the policy that pursued the right one for this theater
1t must be made to pay and does not invite the fas
