NEW BOAT COMPANY
TO OPERATE LINE
to The Georgian..
Itruiianlcjt, G*.» Dec. B.—The I»u*Iiiobs
m «*ti of Dublin ore anxloua for a boot line

,. n the line. It la believed that this l—-
line will Ik* of great benefit to their town,
iml If the first boat proves n success, a
number of others will Ik* built.

everything poaalble will l>e done to bring

i AT THE THEATERS
"The Girl and the Bandit.”
If the bandit had murdered the tenor
In the first act It wouldn’t have been
>.» bad—for then the bandit might have
been hanged—and their absence would
have improved things. But they were
always in evidence.
The "comedyvopera" la disappoint
ing in that It'hfts but h breath of
opera and not that much comedy—ex
cept the fun embodied In one little girl.
She is Leonl Pam, the queerest little
iicak since Katie Bary, who doeg more
things with a lone skirt than one cun
imagine.
There is another bright spot—the
baritone. George McFarlane’s voice Is
worth hearing, rich, vibrant, beautiful.
He is given several opportunities to
display It to advantage and these al
most compensate for the rest of the
performance.
Miss Viola Gillette Is a rather fine-
looking woman with a clear mexzo-
voprano, b.ut her voice Is only a trained
set of muscles—devoid of color or
warmth. It doeg not appeal to one.
That "The Girl and the Bandit” is not
in the first blush of youth Is shown
m a topical song in whiyh the humoi-
oii-- Incidents date back before Dowle.
There* are some beautiful song num
bers. notably, "Summer of Love” and
»"A Sweet Venetian Rose," both sung
by .Mr. McFarlane.
' The production Is here for Thursday
afternoon and night. G. D. G. •
