PRETTY MISS BANCKER
TALKS ENTERTAINMENT OF
ACTORS AND ACTRESSES.
she Likes American Comedians
and Says They Are
Funny.

"Butit isn't nahsty weather. after all,
If it is a bit cold," asseverated Miss
Emily Bancker, late of the London
Comedy company. at the Hotel Ryan
yesterday, as she removed magnificent
wrap in which sable was mingled with
seal, Just returned from a sleigh ride,
the glowing freshness Of her cheeks
made positively dazzling the frank,
arch sweetness which is the charm Of
young Mrs. Sylvester"
would you like to know about the
English actors, really? Well. l must
say. so far as comedians are concerned.
the Americans are much the better. At
least, they make one laugh deal more.
and surely that ought to be the best
test believe it is generally admitted
that the English leading man, in the
more serious plays, and perhaps the
English actor in general, pays more at
tention to detail, and is trifle more
careful in reading his lines. Now,
d. you know, there's too much talk
about the English voice. It's certainly
often soft and full, but one can hear
some delightful voices on the stage
here. and in some parts Of the Union q
richness Of voice is universal, while
there are Englishmen, especially from
the North country who have beastly
voices, positively.
''It's mpossible-quite impossible to
say which country has the best school.
They're so much alike, and both very
different from the French ideal. Per-
haps the American makes up in natural
talent what the Englishnan has acquired
by conscientious study. Over there
they like to nave all the stage business
as real as possible. Miss Vokes, | re-
member, amused her manager very
much when she insisted that, in Bar
bara,' she and l should be provided
with real thread, needles, and an actual
garment, all cut out for her to haste up.

But your managers here are more
considerate and more liberal. If they
want an actor or an actress they will
pay anything in reason. for they handle
their plays as a sort of big speculation
almost branch of la grande finance.
1.-THE ordinary English manager looks
on play as piece Of everyday conser-
vative business, where every tuppence
must be saved. And then. too, the
American audience is so kind and gen.

Possessed of natural advantages that are
in some respects superior to those in which
most of the other suburbs of Washington
rejoice, that portion of Virginia which is
closely contiguous to the District of Column
bia should be thickly populated with that
most desirable class of residents who daily
attend to business in the city, but prefer
to rest at night amid the GOODNESS and
fragrance and greater healthfulness of
green fields and wild flowers and wide
spreading trees. The reasons why the tide
of suburban growth has been diverted from
the highlands of Alexandria county are
considered elsewhere in this issue of The
Star. Most conspicuous among them are
inaccessibility, due to the obstacle of the
practically bridgeless Potomac and to in
adequate transit facilities, and unpublished
lawlessness in certain ACKNOWLEDGMENT
portions of the belt of territory which lies
between this city and Arlington Heights.
There are reasons to believe that both of
these hindrances to the development of this
section will be cast off. A Memorial Bridge
at Observatory Hill and a reconstructed
and modernized Long Bridge are certainties
OF the not distant future. Other bridges
and suburban railroad projects promise to
naterialize. The disgrace and injury of

This proposition has been advocated in The
Star during several summers past but the
idea SO startled a majority of those in
whose keeping the churches are that it

son why churches should not be equipped

be argued that the mere motion of the fam

to this time the electrician proposition

of the official bodies but there is reason

ceived and probably approved in the case

City. Rosslyn and kindred resorts

Jackson City. Rosslyn and kindred resorts
across the Potomac will surely be removed.
Washington is concerned in whatever af
fects the interests of any of its suburbs,
and it has interested itself in the affairs of
Alexandria county in order to remove con-
ditons which have not only been seriously
hurtful directly to its urban population.
but which have injured. MOI ally and ma
terialiy. one of the most promising of its
suburban sections. Washington is en-
gagged in doing what it can to assist Gov
ernor OFerrall in a crusade against trans
Potomac suburban lawlessness, and if the
reform movement is as successful as i.
deserves to be both Alexandria county and
the District of Columbia will be materially
benefited. The cleansing of the Virginia
shore will be a good thing for Washington
proper because this city now suffers from
the villainy which is plotted in the dens
along the southern river front and from the
demoralizing influence, especially upon the
young, of the proximity of numerous gam
bling resorts; but for every particle Of ad-
vantage that may come to Washington be-
cause of the combined efforts of the Board
of Trade and Governor O'Ferrall there will
be ten-fo!d profit for Alexandria county.
