IsIand Ferry Company.

The stockholders of the Island Ferry
Company hold their annual meeting to-
night at st. Luke's chapel, on Broad
way street, and from surface indications
it appears that it will be one OF much
interest. Said an Island citizen yester'
day: 1.-THE forcing of Island citizens to
90 back to the bridges during the time
the ice stopped the running of the ferry
seems to have kindled anew the feeling
against excessive toll, and it seems
that the Ferry has come to stay"

Rev. Edward, Davis looks like an actor.
Last night he illustrated a sermon on
Eternal Judgment" by assuming the
character Of Richard III, and quoting
in dramatic manner the famous solilo-
GUY in the first scene and also in the
act of the play. The preachers acting
was realistic. There was big au-
dieuce, many attracted by curiosity.
The clergyman is very young. In act
ing out the doom that overlook Richard
III, the preacher fell on the stage just
as Keene and Warde did.

Why 1t Is Better for the Average

Special Correspondence of the Globe
NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-It is a gem
eral opinion among the theater-go-
ing public that as soon as an en-
terprise is advertised, either as a
vaudeville or burlesque it must neces-
sarily be commonplace and vulgar,
and is not fit to be witnessed by
any person with higher ideas of the
atr1cal amusement. These biased
people never stop to think that an
artist is an artist, no matter what
line either he or she, as the case
may be, may adopt, and a fine spe-
cialty artist in his line is as com
mendable as the best leading man
in his line. Take into consideration
the fact that when speciality or
burleSque performer comes before
the! public he alone is to amuse the
audience. He has not wonderful
scenic, mechanical or electrical eff
,fects, but has to depend solely upon
his own efforts and ability to amuse,
and should he at any time cease to
divert, his auditors Immediately tire
of him, and he is at once voted in
competent.
The legitimate actor may be in
some points weak, but his scenes with
others may be strong on account of
those others being competent and
helping to please. One may be an
artist and the other may be an
amateur, and still their portion of the

The Bostonians are here again. All
will welcome them. These comic
opera artists are like the state they
hail from. which Daniel Webster
once said needs no encomium."
Upon the occasion of this visit the
Bostonians will present a new opera
entitled "A Wartime Wedding" the
joint work of Oscar We'll and c. T.
DaZey. This opera will be presented
on Monday. Wednesday and Friday
evenings and at the Saturday mat
inee; on Tuesday and Saturday even
ings the delightful Robin Hood"
will be sung, and on Thursday night
prince Ananias" will be the bill.
"A Wartime Wedding" is a ro-
mantle composition on serious lines
somewhat on the order of "Cavalleria
Rusticana." The argument of the
opera is as follows: During the
siege of the City of Mexico, Capt.
Selden, a captain of dragons. is left
for dead in the grounds of an old
