Since 1873 Feltman's Seaside Garden has been the biggest eating place on Coney Island, If not In America. Anything In the •Ktf of food, from a sandwich, to a banquet • for -ten thousand persons, can be had here. The great resort, .which Is In reality * .large park, runs-from; Surf Avenue to the ocean, having a frontage ot 221 feet, and a, depth of 1.385 feet On a busy Saturday, Sunday or holiday, Ave hundred waiters are required to fill the wants ot the thirstr and hungry patrons. •"-•:.-' On week days about three hundred and fifty waiters art. kept busy. There are regu- larly i employed Ofty-thrse coots, seventeen lunch counter men, forty-eight dish wasuers, ten fork, knives and spoon cleaners, thlrty- . seven cashiers, thirty-nine bartenders, twelve .- engineers and electricians, six buyers of food, • forty cleaners, six special policemen, six au- tomobile attendants and sixteen horses. There . Is also a largo office staff. Also on the .weekly pay roll are the names of more than seventy-five entertainers, and the Seventy- Hrrt Regiment Baud, which Is. led by Lora- thert Eben, one of the youngest and most capable lenders In America. This band was led by Mr. Eben's father for many years. - The great, pantry Is always well stocked with the best of food, and the grocery depart- ment Is Ave times the she of any great New York hotel. There are great Ice houses by the dozen to keep the food In proper con- dition. One boy does nothing but keep count of the frankfurters as they leave the store house. Probably the most 'popular place In Felt- man's Is the Duetches Garden, where light refreshments of all kinds are served. In the centre is the band stand, where the Seventy-flrst Regiment Band plays. Ou the extreme left Is a specially constructed stage, decorated with natural flowers and plants. Here appears Winkler's Society Entertainers, under the direction of Alexander Winkler. This Is the first season for this ■ splend.d organization, and It is a strong favorite with the many patrons ot the resort. Be- sides the entertainers who give a good cab- aret show, there Is a string orchestra of Ave. The bill for this week includes: Raphael Piz- sott a baritone; Emma. RoU, soprano.;-.Irene ■Wilt and partner. In modC'i dances, and the Three Winkler Sisters, in fancy dances and songs, and a Miss Oogan, a ragtime singer. On the other end of the garden an enter* talnment In German Is given by Feltman's German Comedy-Company, which Is composed of thirty actors and actresses, who. In the Winter appear in the leadln? German thea- tres of this country. Karl Brugcr Is principal comedian, producer and manager, and the Bhow consists of singing, dancing and selec- tions from the great operas. The stage, ■which is set to represent a street scene In Munich, Is never left vacant. There Is some- thing doing all the time. From four to six o'clock the members of the company go to 6'jpper. Thev resume their entertainment at seven-thirty, "and keep It up until one o'clock la the morning. T'icse Tyrolean troubndoura are very popular, especially with tha German element, which is largely la evidence at Feltman's, • - . A popular entertainer is CoL Rhodes H. Moore, a well known newspaper cartoonist. He Is now playing his fourth annual engage- ment at Feltman's. His specialty consists ql Mexican War bulletins, founded upon news- paper accounts of the war In Mexico. Mr, Moroe's work Is jrilllantly executed and la done with great rapidity. His sketches of people sitting In the audience Is a big hit, and the Individual who Is honored by having his features drawn In always envied by his companions, for the likeness Is perfect. In the rear of the park there has just been erected one of the largest and finest open air moving picture theatres In tho country. The theatre seats over two thou- sand people, and only first run pictures are shown. While admission to the park Is free, there Is a charge ot ten cents to enter the picture theatre. Over the Duetcher Gardens Is a large balcony, where the famous Felt- man f 1.00 shore dinner Is served. Two thou* eand diners can be accommodated here. Feltman's was started by Charles Feltman, one of the first men to settle In Coney Isl- and, and up to the time of his death, which occurred about five years ago, he was promi- nent In Coney Island's development The great business now bearing his same is now managed and owned by his two sons. Chas. L. Feltman and Alfred Feltman, and they devote their entire time to the enterprise, aided by their general manager, Jesse F. Sherwood, and W. h. James, the auditor. There are, ot course, various ways of reaching Feltman's, but the most popular la by the way of the sight seeing cart operated by the Sight Seeing Owners' Association (S. S. O. A.), which has a stand In Coney Island, opposite Feltman's and a New York stand In Times Square. The price charged on week days Is only fifty cents, but on Saturdavg, Sundays and holidays the price is one dollar. The automobiles seat from ten to twenty people, and aro operated by expert chauffers. Eugene Etlcey Allen, i a Cauda to Go. Guilds, the biggest elephant in captivity, and perhaps the most vicious tempered ani- mal ever housed In the New York Zoological ■Park, Is to be done away with—because he Is so vicious ho one would care to buy him.
