The late James A. Hearne's drama,

the Metropolitan for the half week
beginning Thursday, Jan. 81.

companion picture of "Shore Acres"
Both these plays deal with humble.
coast folk and the story told is in
nearly every scene and incident
founded on actual facts. In Sag
Harbor' the homely characters Mr.
Hearne has introduced are mostly
vivid studies in human nature, and he
makes them work out a probable
story in logical manner.
The story Is that Of woman who
apparently loves and Is loved by two
brothers, one Of whom she marries.
Captain Dan Marble, fisherman,
whose province is to act as mediator
between the brothers. contributes
heart-to-heart talks of the typical
| Hearne kind at propitious moments
and finally straightens the tangles out.
The play opens with a pretty scene
between Captain Dan and his sweet
heart, Elizabeth Ann. Then Ben Tur-
| ner enters upon the scene, learns that
| Martha Reese Is in love with him, and
soon secures from her a promise to
| marry. AS Martha goes off the stage
she drops something, and Ben finds a
miniature of his younger brother,

VT IS SAID on excellent authority that
Joseph Chamberlain's great fight for
the establishing Of q protective tariff
In England Is being made at the in
stigation Of his wife, who, Incidental
ly, lis an American.
Mrs. Chamberlain has more than once
played an important part in the politics Of
England, and now her husband has thrown
his whole career In her hands. Chamber
lain lay down his office as colonial secre-
tary and stepped at once from the posi-
ton OF the foremost man in England to
the status Of plain citizen In order to
further the cause he had at heart-a
cause inspired by his wife, who firmly
believes that American methods Of gov
eminent and American internal policies
will greatly benefit the English folk If
adopted. Mr.. Chamberlain Is now speak
Ing to the people, requesting their in
dorsement Of the protective policy. Against
him IS arrayed Henry Asquith, M. F.. one
OF the most powerful orators In Eng
land, but Mrs. Chamberlain is confident Of
the ultimate success Of her husbands
cause.
Never before in the history Of England
have SO many American women had under
their influence posts Of power and politics
as. they have to-day. and this Is being felt
thruout the length and breadth OF the land
Mrs. Chamberlain now intends to AK this
fact still more firmly in the minds Of the
Britishers, for in the new year she pur-
poses to give an elaborate banquet to the
Anglo-American women who have made
themselves felt in British society.
Mrs. Joseph Chamberlain, the daughter
Of Judge w. G. Endicott Of Boston, has
more actual power to-day in some ways
than Queen Alexandra herself. Chamber
lain, unlike most English husbands, has
taken his wife into partnership with him.
Among those who know. It is q matter Of
course that II any one wishes to get att
the great statesman he must first win the
good graces Of his wife.
Chamberlain consults Mrs. Chamberlain
about almost every political move he in
tends to make. When he proposed re-

Metropolitan-'"The Bostonians" in
"Robin Hood" and the "Serenade."
The Bostonians will appear at the
Metropolitan opera-house for three
nights and q matinee beginning Mon
day evening, the 18th inst. The en-
gagement will be opened with a re-
vival of robin Hood" which musical
authorities agree is the best light
opera Of the present generation, and
which will be set in new scenery and
embellished with new costumes. Henry
Clay Barnabee will again come for
ward in his inimitable embodiment Of
the crafty Sheriff Of Nottingham; Will
the melodious Little John; and
George B. Frothingtam will once more
convulse us with his oleaginous Friar
Tuck. Douglass Ruthven has the
picturesque role Of Robin; Howard
Chambers, the Australian basso, will
be the Will Scarlet; Miss Agnes Cain
Brown, the Bostonians' new discovery,
and a soprano whose work has
aroused genuine enthusiasm every
time she has been heard this season,
will sing Marian, and Miss Kate Con-
don will be the Alan-a-Dale.
The chorus has been trained with
conscientious care, and the orchestra,
conducted by Sam L. Studley, Is ex-
pected to accentuate the musical
value Of the performances.
The Bostonians have passed the
quarter-centennial of their career as
an organization, and 1t Is the general
testimony that they are doing more de-
serving work and reaching higher
standard Of musical art than ever be-
fore.
One performance of Victor Herbert's
opera, 1.-The Serenade," will be given,
Tuesday evening being set aside for it.
1.-THE Serenade' is considered the best
work the eminent American composer
has ever done, and with Harry B.

librettist, 1.-The Serenade" easily takes

Of people in the United States, Canada

the compositions of the great COM

popular music of the day, and par
ticularly excells in the rendition of
the Scottish national music. Attached
to the organization are seven soloists,
six Highland dancers, two bagpipers,
four British military buglers, and a

it's monthly teas at the studio are

The Bijou-George Sidney in "Busy

George Sidney and his second edi-
ton Of BUSY Izzy'' will be the attrac-
ton at the Bijou for one week COM
mencing with a matinee Tomorrow
and including the regular Wednesday
and Saturday matinees. The Jew as
shown by this comedian is as pleasing
to the Hebrew race as to all others.
This good-natured, laughing little fell
low, who is always imposed upon rath-
er than imposing, is ever ready for any
new scheme that may be suggested,
and usually accompanies every ven-
ture with the screams of laughter
which follow new failure for him.
The piece is a musical farce, and
speciality interpretations, songs, dances
and ensembles fill in. Among the new
musical numbers are anna, MY Dixie

inent in the company are Carrie Web

Gilmore, Frank Gibbons and chorus
Of thirty pretty girls and well-tailored

One of the best bits Of drollery is
said TO be the DurleSQue on a minstrel
first part. This keen bit Of satire Is
built on the lines of burlesque which
Weber & Fields have made popular.
The take-off is given by George Sid
ney, Fred Wyckoff and Carrie Web
Der. The gentlemen play the ends and
Miss Weber makes the announce
ments and performs the duties of an
interlocutor. OF course the two come
dams have ample opportunities for
springing antiquated jokes on the in
terlocutor and they are very funny,
but Miss Weber never did anything
better in her career than in this little
skit.

LYCEUM-Dick Ferris in "Jim the
Penman."

Penman.
At the Lyceum, starting tomorrow
evening and continuing all the week,
Dick Ferris and his company will pre-
sent the clever society comedy drama,
''Jim the Penman." The story Of the
piece is an interesting one.
James Ralston, alias Jim the Pen
man." won his soubriquet by the
clever manipulation Of his pen in the
signing of checks and notes, by which
means he has gained immense wealth.
Ralston was at the head of a clever
gang of the most extraordinary for
gers and criminals in all Europe. The
men did their work so skilfully that
1t was extremely difficult to secure
the least clue, but Ralston became
tired Of his work and endeavored to
sever his connections with the band.
The ties that were woven around him
proved too strong, however. and he
submitted to the gangs dictation and
committed the final act which led to
his downfall. Ralston was also at
the head Of a large clearinghouse in
London and was highly honored by
his associates. who were greatly sur
prfsed when he was convicted of com
plicity with the clever forgeries which
SO stirred up the financial world.
