RIDING EXPERTS IN WHEELER’S CIRCUS The new and wonderful European arenic features that have been added to the Wheeler Bros.:Shows appear- ing in New Britain, Tuesday, May 5, are many and varied, but none stand out so prominently in: the brilliant galaxy of star feature acts as the Leroy-Sexton Troupe, now seen for the first time in America. These clever people are acknowledged the champion riding experts of Europe, and appear in what is classed as the ‘cnly original equestrian acts known to the circus for the past half cen- tury. Their simplest feats are not within the range of accomplishment of the average equestrian, and their more heroic efforts are the bane of ervious rivals, concluding with simul- taneous bounding leaps from the ground to the backs of horses. There are. many other riders of both sexes whose names are synonymous with the best and greatest in equestrian achievements and the majority of whom are progeny of illustrious riding families, thus combining acquired skill with hereditary genius. They represent every school and style of riding—bounding, jockey, somersault- ing, hurdle, menage, and,race riders and heroic horsemanship of the fron- tier. A company of _.genuine Cossack riders in native costume, give an ex- hibition of daring whirlwind riding, which has never been equalled. Posi- tively the greatest act of its kind ever offered by any traveling organiza- tion. THIRD ANNUAL CONCERT O CATHOLIG CHORAL UNION .

The only #ire way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you Qestroy it entirely. To do_this, et about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight, and by morning most if not all of your dandruff will Ye gone, and three or four more ap- plications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dan- druff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus- trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. If you want to preserve your hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair more quickly. It not only starves the hair and makes it fall out, but it makes it stringy, straggly, dull, dry, brittle and lifeless, and everyone notices it. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work. CIRCUS MENAGERIE HIPPODROME I Wttty STAMPEDE BEST 0 S 2% R ; %5 . .:9 '~ ey 35 ol (%5 e * 8252 One-Piece Skirt with Yoke, 22 to 32 waist.

Over a hundred remark- ‘~ver performers take part in the varied program offered and stamp it as the bbest show that La Tena has ever of- fered to the American public. Many siecimens of rare, wild animals will be found on exhibition in the splendid- ly arranged menagerie, and courteous attendants will gladly explain the various families.

Press Agents Tell of Iheatrical Bills THE NINETY AND NINE AT LYCEUM TONIGHT "The opening presentation of “The Ninety and Nine” will be given this evening at the Lyceum by the Lyceum Players under the direction of Man- ager Wyrley W. Birch. This attraction should prove one of the best of the season’s offerings. There is an abundance of thrilling action in the piece. “The Ninety and Nine” is a most wonderful dramatization of the hymn of the same name and made famous principally by the singing of it at the great revival services con- ducted by Evangelist Ira D. Sankey. It is an attraction which appeals to the interests of all classes of play-goers. Scenically it is the biggest undertak- ing yet offered under the manage- ment. A mammoth thirty-five foot engine will be run through a prairie fire, the flames leaping up onto the engine, even singeing the hero While he sticks to his post at the throttle to pull the train through. .In addition to the regular evening performances the usual matinees will be played tomorrow (Tuesday), Thursday and Saturday afternoons. POLO PLAYERS AT KEENEY'S THEATER The Three Harveys, America's cele- brated polo players, will be featured this week at Keeney's. These won- derful players will offer an act that is distinctively novel in these parts and one that will doubtless attract Their popu- larity is so great that they rarely leave the large cities and it was only after an exceptionally large offer was | made to them that they eould be in- duced to come to New Britain. The management feels confident that their act will be a big attraction. Another big act for the program is ireves and Coe, known in vaudeville s The Yappank Guardsmen. This yair of entertainers has won consider- ahle fame for its unique specialty. Both Greves and Coe are comedians of the first rank and since their entry in vaudeville they have been creating a near-sensation. Collier and The Clifton Sisters, a trio of singers and . novelty dancers, will provide an up-to-the-minute specialty; Florence Talbot, singing comedienne, will sing the latest popu- lar song hiits and News and’ Ellrid will offer an acrobatic number, said ta be exceptionally good. The, Pathe weekly will be shown on ‘Wednesday and Thursday, instead of Monday and Tuesday. BARBAROUS MEXICO* GREAT FOX PICTURE Every man, woman and child should not miss this opportunity to see the greatest army and navy in the world in actual action in the enemy's territory. We can sit in our homes and read accounts of warfare, but it's seldom that we can see ac- tual battles and happenings before our eyes. The United States is at war with Mexico, and every man and woman under the protection of the Stars and Stripes must know the facts concerning the savage nation whose half-breed dictator refused to salute the emblem of liberty after subject- ing it to studied insuits. Now is the time to be true sons and daughters of Uncle Sam and to get acquainted with the people who are about to be taught a drastic lesson’ in civilized politeness. These superb pictures of Barbarous Mexico could not have ap- peared at a more propitious time. See them and you will be glad you took this opportunity. In addition to this feature we will present a real laugh-producing com- edy entitled “Her Fallen Hero” and an extraordinarily strong photo . play “The Doctor's Romance” and five other best high-class picture play: All members of Company I, C. N. G., who appear at the theater in ser- vice uniform Monday night will be admitted free. VALUABLE JEWELS STOLEN.

Belfast, May 4.—The fire squad of the militant suffragettes resumed its activities in Ulster today by burning the new grand stand of the Cave Hill Tennig club. » WOMEN SHOULD TAKE WARNING If the statement made at a New York Assembly of women, that healthy Americap women are so rare | that they are almost extinct, is true, it is time for the women of America to take warning and look to their health. It may be headaches, back- aches, dragging down pains, nervous- ness, ment4l depression, that are tell-tale symptoms of some organic derangement for which Lydia L. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound—a simple remedy made from roots and herbs—Iis a specific and may be relisq great deal mixed with flowers on fine straw hats. upon to restore women to a healthy normal- condition. Taking Too Much Responsibility By RUTH CAMERON. 66 OBODY in this house will take any responsibility except me,” I N heard a tired mother say the other day. What she said was true. At least, to a large extent. Her husband is an irresponsible, happy-go-lucky person, who looks five years younger than his wife, although he is actually a year or two older. Her children are extravagant about money matters, disorderly about fhe house and careless in regard to their clothes. Their mother has to ‘keep after them all the time,” as she puts it. The oldest daughter is amply old c¢nough to take some of the care from her mother's shoulders, but she never dves. Her share of managing the house consists in perform- ing certain small, routine tasks, and even here her mother has to see that the work is done and done right. Naturally the mother of this irresponsible family, although normally a robust and energetic personality, is l:ecoming worn out. Responsibility is not a thing that most people crave; When one member of the family gets into the habit of taking it, the'rest of the family slip into the habit of yielding it. . Almost from her wedding day this woman began to take the respon- sibility of the family upon her shoulders. “She liked to lead and rule, and responsibility came natural to her. Her husband was a rather easy going person with no great sense of responsibility. Had he married a different sort of a woman I think he would have developed that quality. As it was he developed in the opposite direction. When the children came the same thing happened to them, And now the mother is growing older, and she begins to find all this ;es]mnsiblli(y which she has arrogated to herself a burden too heavy to ear, Poor, unhappy creature. I'm always sorry for people who make mistakes, the sentiment “she’s made her bed and now she can lie 1 it.” But I do think she has no right to put all the blame on her family. One of the best stories I ever read told of a woman who had more business ability than her husband, and who, when he lost his position, went out into the business world and made good. Then instead of sharing tne responsibil- ity for supporting'the family with her husband she began to take it all. Her husband gradually came to depend on her even for his own clothes and spending money. Ultimately she divorced him and thereupon he mar- ried a woman of the other type, went back into the business world and, I can’t say I'm not sorry for her, because I've no patience with pushed forward by his new sense of responsibility, made good. Every human being ought to be share of responsibility. | Whoever. ta burden for himself and robbing his ware how he takes more than his fair kes too large a share is laying up a fellow creatures of their birthright. They may be willing, just as Esau was willing, but he has no right to do it and sooner or later everyone concerned will suffer. ,Woman Suffrage T Endorsed i By U. S. Senate Committee Vote By States May Be Obtai Cent. of Legal Voters— Suffic The proposed constitutional amend- ment providing for the optional en- franchisement of women by states has been favorably reported to the United States senate by the commit- tee on woman. suffrage. y In a report presented by Senator Owen on behalf of the committee a - plea for the approval of the optional suffrage plan is .made on the ground | that it will not impose the enfran-| chisement of women upon those | southern states ostensibly opposed to' it because of the negro problem nndt upon those western states from which | emanate objections based on the in-| creasing population of Japanese and other Asiatics. Each state will le! free to decide the suffrage question by | a vote of the people. | Victory for Mrs. McCormick. The favorable report of this reso- lution, which was introduced by Sena- tor Shafroth of Colorado, represents a victory for Mrs. Medill McCormick of Ghicago, chairman of the congres- sional committee of the National Woman Suffrage association. Mrs. McCormick proposed the op- tional plan, following the rejection by the senate of the amendment propos- ing the extension of equal suffrage to all the states. The latter resolution received a majority but not two-thirds of the votes cast by the senators. Mrs. McCormick is confident that the op- tional plan will command thé re- auired two-thirds vote, because more than a dozen senators indlcated they would have voted for the resolution | had it embodied the states’ rights doc- trine. The resolution rejected by the sen- ate, which was reintroduced by Sen- ator Bristow, also is pending with a favorable report from the woman suf- | frage committee. Chairman Thomas said tonight that there is no incon- sistency in the approval of both the Bristow and Shafroth measures Dby the committee inasmuch as the desire is to submit the entire question to the senate. What the Resolution Provides. The Shafroth resojution reported provides: “Whenever any number of legal voters of any state, to a number ex- ceeding eight per centum of the num- ned by Petition of Eight Per Majority Vote Will Be ient. ber of legal voters voting at the last preceding general election held In such state, shall petition for the sub- mission to the legal voters of =sald state of the question whether women shall have equal rights with men in respect to voting at all electtons o be held in such state, such question shall be so submitted and if, upon such submission, majority of the legal voters of the state voting on the question shall vote in favor of grant- ing to women such equal rights, the same. shall thereupon be deemed es- tablished, anything in the constitution or laws of such state to the contrary notwithstanding.” Favorable Report of Committee. The committee report recommend- ing the adoption of the resolution says: “In effect the- passage of the suf- frage amendment by the nation’s con- gress would give the cause a tremen- dous advance from coast to coast. Without further delay the legislature in every state in the union would give dignified and simultaneous considera- tion to suffrage and at the same time create an overwhelming cumulative impetus to -the movement, increasing suffrage activity, Federal sanction would dignify this great movement so | vital to one-half of the entire citizen- ship of the United States. “The states’ right doctrine is the great objection that is raised to fed- eral issues that come before congress. It is recognized as a valid objection by many members of congress, and many members from the north feel that they owe to members from the south the courtesy of refraining from interference in matters vital to the south. “This amendment will either direct- ly or indirectly be the means of bring- ing a great number of new states into the suffrage ranks and will =o Increase suffrage activity that its effect can- not be overestimated.” Miss Ryan has of those stylish new golfine and fancy wool capes that she is featuring at $12, at her shop, 79 Pratt street, Hartford —just the wrap for the girls.—advt. more THE POPULAR SHOE STORE Red Cross Shoes for Wommnen. ed@oss hiot When you wear the Red Cross Shoe you are experiencing the utmost in comfort.
