ALAUGHABLE COMEDY.
COOte and Long Make IA Good Hit in
the Other Mans Wife.


the Other Mans Wife.
Bert Coote and Nick Long, with very
good company, appeared at the theater
last night in The Other Mans Wife. The
principal play was preceded by a bright
one-act curtain raiser, entitled A Soldier
of France. In this appeared Mr.. Long,
Mr.. Charles w G.blyn and Miss Idalene
Cotton. In this piece there was more Of
the drama than the comedy, and the work
was very cieverly executed.
Mr.. Coote appeared as Oscar Tim!d in
The other Mans Wife, and Mr.. Long as
Lionel Easyside, a man of the world The
first act is perhaps the strongest in the
comedy. Its climax is good, ending In a
scene of comedy that is startling and
laughable in its effect. The second and
third acts are comic and laughable
throughout. but their ending was slight
ly disappointing. The Impression on the
audience was as IL carried to the hight
of comedy IT had suddenly been let down
on the plane of the commonplace
Miss Julia Kingsley, as Angelica. a
cherub, appeared TO good advantage, and
some splendid acting was done by Miss
Lillian Dix, who appeared as Mrs Stern,
the exacting mother-in-law of-Mrs. Ruby
Timid, the character that was well repre-
scented by Miss Idalene Cotton.

good one, and there were few, II any. in

NO ANTI-sMOKING ORDINANCES.
That Is. For Bull street and Forsyth
Park.


Receiver John r. Young of the Electric
railway was mistaken when he said the
other day that the city ordinances pro-
hiblt smoking on Bull street and in For
syth park.
There was a section of the code prohib-
iting smoking in Forsyth park. but this
was repealed in June, 1889. during Mayor
Schwarz's administration. This section
was part OF an ordinance adopted by coun-
ell in 1866 for the preservation of public
order and decency in the park. which APP
pears to have been a resort for disorderly
characters at that time, Judging by the
tone of the ordinance.
There has never been an ordinance pro-
hlbting smoking on Bull street. In No
vember, 1883. when Mr.. ]. j. Wilder was
a member OF council, he proposed an ordl-
nance prohibiting the smoking of cigars,
pipes or cigarettes in certain portions Of
the city north of Bryan street. including
the wharves and river front. but the ordi-
nance was not adopted. There is an ordi-
nance in force now, however, prohibiting
smoking on the wharves and river front,
the cotton yards and warehouses, the
usual penalty being IS fine. This ordl-
nance is rigidly enforced by the police.
especially by the Ocean Steamship force.

FOREIGN VESSELS IN SUMNER.
Statistics Showing the Number For
the Last z6 Years

the Last 20 Years.
Collector of Customs ]. F. B. Beckwith
has prepared some statistics which, in
view Of the general discussion with regard
to the quarantine, may be Of special in
terest at this time. A representative OF
the Morning News met Collector Beck
with, who is also a member of the sani-
tary commission, yesterday and in the
course of conversation asked him about
the quarantine discussion
II am thoroughly convinced" he said,
that the quarantine rules and regulations
have had no effect whatever upon the bus
mess of the port, and I think the figures
will bear me out. They show that the
number of vessels has been varia BILE from
year to year, In the season between May
l and Oct 81, but that
there has been large In
crease in every year almost since the
quarantine went into effect The quaran-
tine was established in 1877, and since that
time in almost every year there has been
a larger number of foreign vessels in port
than before the quarantine went into eff
feet. The increase or decrease in the num-
Der from year to year is clearly traceable
to the amount of business at the port, and
there is not a single bit Of evidence that
the quarantine regulations have had any
thing to do with IT.
Collector Beokwith has prepared a ia
BILE showing the number of foreign YES
sells, such as barks and tramp steamers,
which have been entered at the port of
Savannah during the summer months from
May to Oct. 81, the season during which
the strict quarantine laws are enforced.
The list is as follows:

These are all foreign vessels, and the
figures include none of the American craft
engaged in the coastwise trade. The
quarantine went into effect in 1877, and it
will be seen that during the summer
months there has been a large increase
pretty nearly every year since that time.
The number this year up to Sept. 16 is II,
but as there Is a good deal of business
