The collision between a Staten Island
ferryboat and Governors Island appears
to have been effected without serious
damage to either party. But we shud-
der to think what might have happened
if the impinging craft had been one OF
those archaic triremes which used to ply
those waters before the days of the mu-
nicipaI ferry. Had it been the grand old
Westfield, for example instead of the
Nassau, ploughing in at her historic
velocity Of half a knot an hour, Castle
Williams might have turned turtle and
Fort Columbus have been knocked to
smithereens. But with the advent Of the
municipal ferry the glory Of those ante
diluvian monsters Of the deep has de-
parted.

MRS BERRYHILI

Union City will be interested in the
news that Miss Margaret Freezing, for
merly Of this place, is now the Coun-
tess yiso Bal, having married an Italian
nobleman recently. She was the daugh-
ter Of Mrs. Powell, and after her debut
in Italian grand opera ia that country,
a brilliant season there and season
under Maurice Grau, Of the Metropoli-
tan Opera of New York, she returned
to Union City and took limited num-
Der Of vocal aspirants for two summers.
She afterwards toured the States in con-
cert work and then for three years had
her studio in Memphis, where she was.
quite prominent in musical circles.
Her Italian singing master had given
her, after the Italian fashion, name
equivalent to the quality OF her voice,
and she is known in Italy and on the
stage as 'Norri, whicb means noble.
In the same way Patti shame was given
her. Patti means peaceful, and
Melba, the stage name OF Mrs. William
Armstrong, means "melodious.
Miss Freeling's most celebrated roles
were as Seibel in Faust and as the
Gypsy in II Trovatore " Among her.
Union City pupils were Mrs. Mary Dean
Wheeler and Mrs. Joe Sheriff., of Chi
cago, who as Miss Evelyn Little often
charmed us with her lyric singing.
Several of the Memphis pupils have
since climbed to fame on the stage. Miss
Clara Pitt Ellis, known on the programs
as Clara Pitt, after studying here under
Miss freezing, went into musical come
dy and then into straight comedy, and
then into musical comedy again. She
appeared in "Floradora, ;" Bird Cen
ter, +" Diana of Dobsen's" with Frank
Daniels and with Christie Mcdonald,
the great Joe Jefferson's ex-daughter-
ln-law, in Miss Hook of Holland. "
She is said to be one of the American
supporting Pauline Chase, the
English actress, in Our Miss Gibbs. "
Miss Chase, by the way, is the ward of
James Barrie, the writer, and is to be
married to Claud Graham White, the
.viator.
