MUSIC AND DRAMA.
MISS sHAw's PLAYING.

AloS oAAW tLA1lNG.
The Boston Transcript thus speaks of Miss
Shaw's harp playing which all her friends
here will be pleased to read:
miss Shaw's playing does much to recon-
cile one to listening to the harp. That in
strument, SO enchanting when it adds its
jewelled sparkle to the orchestra, so poor
and helpless by itself, or when 1t tries to
support singers voice, becomes almost mu-
steal in her hands. II. as has been said, the
real feat the pianist performs is to cheat peo-
pie into thinking they. are hearing music,
what shall be said of the task of the player
on the even shorter toned harp? But Miss
Shaw's brilliant and fiuet technique, the
pure, smooth tone she knows how to entice
from those poor strings. her grace of phras-
ing, and essentially musical warmth of ex-
preston carry her far toward making one
forget the limitations of her instrument. If
we are to hear the harp at all. let us hear it
so played. She knows no little wisdom, too,
in sticking to real harp music, music which
has this, If little else. to recommend it, that
it was written by virtuosi who know the
harp through and through, and how to show
it at its best"

a hundred tons is discharged from a
single boat. 1t occasionally happens
that two steamers are at the dock at the
same time, but happily the wharf facili-
ties could accommodate even more than
two at once.
More than a dozen small fishing boats
lie piled along the beach awaiting the
certainty of settled weather, when the
bay will be dotted over every day with
these little crafts, all busily gathering
in, with hook and net, a great variety of
the tinny tribe. AS the season of trolling
approaches, those who own the larger
boats, with sail attachments, are making
ready for that sport. Barracuda and
Jewish are already here, and rock cod
and yellowtails will soon follow. In
fact, all the fishermen seem to think the
fishing season will open at least month
earlier than usual.
The company's large bath house was
