On Monday evening the Players | will open in “The Ninety and Nine.” This is one of the most thrilling melo- dramas that Manager Birch has of- fered, having unusual scenic demands | and cast requirements so that it is a play seldom offered in permanent | stock repertoire. The demand for it, | however, has been very large, and ! Maanger Birch has gone to special | pains to provide this bill. To do so | Manager Birch has gone to the add-~ ed expense of getting a large scenic engine which is essential in ,one of the acts. It is not the policy in Lyce- um productions to resort to “faking” | any of the important elements when, | even at a considerable expense it is | possible to procure the necessary me- | chanical features. For the staging | of this big attraction the management | has had to add to the force of scene | painters and carpenters to get out the | work. “The Ninety and Nine” will | be staged as adequately as it has ever | been offered to the theater-going pub- lic. Seats are now on sale at Crow- | ell’s drug. store. i MEXICAN WARFARE TO BE SHOWN AT FOX'S The people of New Britain will have an opportunity of witnessing ‘in moving pictures at Fox’'s theater on Monday afternoon and evening next | the ac‘uzl happenings of the guer- rilla warfare, the horrors and suf- ferings of our brave boys, who at! present are on Mexican soil, fighting for the flag we all so dearly love. These pi¢tures were taken by a large corps of expert camera men who were sent to the various polm.si the moment President Wilson asked | for an apology from Huerta. Thei national palace of Mexico where the cruel president and his terrified cab- | inet meets each day will be spread upon the screen beforé you. There | is an actual reproduction of the man-. | ner of Mexican warfare and it is‘ vividly portrayed. “You see buildings blown up: with dynamite and wite | ness the carnage wrought by shot | and shell. You will see Uncle Sam's { trim-limbed soldiers and your pa- triotism will be stirred by the unfurl- ing of Old Glory, and you will also meet President Woodrow Wilson. Tn addition to this extra special feature we have built up a show of superior side-splitting comedies and intensely stirring dramatic subjects.

WHEELER BROTHERS’ SHOWS COMING MAY 5 During the history of the Wheeler Brothers shows they have been noted for putting on the most intensely rea. listic racing in its Hippodrome con tests that were ever witnessed under canvas, put on in a manner that dis- tinguishes them from the farces of acting seen with other shows. Among the races put on are, Flat Races, Run- ning’ Races, Man against horse, Hur- dle Races, Elephant, Camel and Pony Races. Also the ever exciting Char- iot Races. During the racing an exhibition ot daring riding will be given by a troupe of genuine Cossack Riders, wha without doubt accomplish more diffi- cult and death-defying feats than any riders that 'have ever visited this coun- try. By means of cash prizes to the lady and gentleman winning the most of the raceés during the week, the show has caused a real rivalry to exist be- tweén the contestants, and though the racing is good natured, yet it is al- ways for blood and testing the nerve and ingenuity of the riders and the speed of the horses to the entire sat- isfaction of thé spectators. “Oh, come, let us g0 before the racing begins is a remark frequently heard at cir- cuses, but the knowing ones never make such a suggesticn when attend- ing the exhibition of the Wheeler Brothers’ Shows, which will be in this city for one day, Tuesday, May 5. Hou;/;l;z’ANot es | PRCEEIS | T e Paper bag cookery is peculiarly suitable for fish. They are much more delightful when cooked by this method. When boiling eggs, always have the vsater boiling when eggs are put in, and then boil them for two minutes. Jelly bags, ‘pudding cloths and strainer cloths should be thrown into clear, warm water immediately after using. All rubbing and wringing by twist- ing is harmful when washing woolens; be sure to rinse out all the soapsuds. A Menu for Tomorrow !

When the peas are reduced to a pulp press all through a colander and set aside; it will keep for several days. The first day serve it plain: the second day add to it a few spoonfuls of chopped onion | er grated carrot previously cooked in a little, dripping until tender; the third da¥ season with celery salt or a dash of curry and serve with it some crisp croutons. Strawberry Sago—Strawberry sago calls for one-half a cupful of sago which is cooked in one quart of water { or milk until transparent. A pinch of { salt is added with one-third of a cup- | ful of sugar, and when dissolved, one |.pint of berries stirred in and cooked for a moment before taking from the fire. CATHOLIC CHORAL UNION CONCERT Because of an unusually attractive program and the fact that Marie Stoddart, the lyric soprano, will be heard as soloist, the third ' annual concert given by the Catholic Choral union at the Russwin Lyceum, Sun- day, May 10, promises a delightful treat for the lovers of music in New Britain and vicinity. It is Miss Stoddart’s second en- gagement with the Catholic Choral union. Her charm of manner, and her able interpretation and rendition of the solo work in Dubois’ Stabat Mater, two years ago, have given her aclaim to local sympathies, and the artiste is sure of a warm welcome at the hands of the New Britdin pub- He. This year Miss Stoddart, assisted by a chorus of eighty voices, will be heard in Hayden's great Mass, No. 2 in C, and by request will sing the In- flamatus from Dubvuis? Stabat Mater, which suits her voice and style ad- mirably. The choral union has prepared a program that will eclipse all previous (ones and the éfforts of this associa- | tion in advancing the art of music are worthy of generous support and encouragement. i The union has been fortunate securing the services of Thomas E. Clifford, the eminent baritone, of | { Boston. Mr. Clifford’s career began | when he studied with' Dr. Guilmette, | and at the age of nineteen sang the part of the count in “The Bohemian i GirL.” After studying grand opera with Giraudet for two years, he was engaged with the Boston Ideal Opera ! Co. For twelve years Mr. Clifford was associated with Sig. Augusto Rotoli, and for ten years was soloist with him at St. James’ church, Bos- in Mr. Clifford is thoroughly familiar with Hayden’s Mass, No. 2 in C, which is to be rendered, and has re- ceived high praise from Boston cm-; ics for his interpretation of it when | he has been heard in the Mass in that city. l_F.aa'.s and Fashions | il A feature of the new nightgowns is the very sheer yoke extending over the bust. Kimono and set-on sleeves are as popular for children’s dresses as for women'’s, Some striking outing dresses have | | hems turned up like a man’s trousers. !

HE jury of eminent artists and critics which decides what pictus ‘Z shall be bought by the art galleries of France is required to pi its reasons for buying each picture into writing. Don’t you think that's a very wise requirement”? 1 do. Not only because it makes it plain to the French people why picture deserves to be bought, but also because it makes plain to the jul itself why each picture deserves to be bought, and renders them likely to make a mistake. Nothing in the world clears the mind on a subject like putting one! thoughts into writing. When we think upon any matter we usually siur over a good mai points, especially those points on which we are at all confused or whi for any reason we do not like to consider, If we put a thing into writing we cannot slur, The dim neutral in which we shrouded confused or unpleasant details must needs when we set the thing down in black and white. Did you ever try this method when you had some important sion to make? 1 have, and I find it invaluable. i Suppose, for instance, you are thinkiug of buying or renting a he and you can’'t make up your mind between two desirable candi You like some things about one house and some things about the ofl Then of course there are certain objections to both. When you try think the thing over you soon find yourself, between all the advantages disadvantages, in a morass of confusion. The beautiful, big living in the first house appeals to you greatly, and then you remember that second has a lovely garden and a place for a tennis court. The is near to the station, but the second has a much finer out The first has open plumbing, but the second has open fireplaces, vour mind is pulled this way and that by each new consideration w! pops into it. Now take a piece of paper and write down on one side of a line advantages of one house and on the other side the advantages of the ol Do the same with the disadvantages. Now /compare them. If you wish to. you can cancel advantages disadvantages which you think are equal and see to which side the ance tips. In any case you have the thing in hlack and white and can a much better idea of it. To many people 1 suppose this idea will seem fantastical. To my m it is a great deal less fantastical than trying to decide any impo question without marshalling all the pros and cons clearly before you. @ course there are a few people with such clear, logical minds that they ca do this in their minds just as well, but I'm free to confess that I'm one of them.
