DARLING” “ The last matinee performance of “The Ninety and Nine” will be given Saturday aftérnoon at the Lyceum. The seats for the remaining per- forraances are on sale and the sale is aiso open for the next week's attrac- tion. Few attractions plaved this season have been more popular than this week’s bill. {apacity houses witnessed the productions of the past few evenings. There is 1 speciad interest in con- rection with next week's attractiol which will be “Over Night” Miss Skirvin, the leading lady of the Ly- ceum Players, originated the role cf “Mrs. Darling” in the New York pro- ction. She was most successful in the character on the road tour. “Over Night” is one of the most de- Jightful farcical comedies presented on the stage in several seasons. ‘It was written by Philip Bartholemae, the author of several' comedy successes. It deals with the complicatiens in/ which two couples, oddly suited as they were wedded, but most congenial as they happened to meet on a day boat on the Hudson river. The par- ties discover how ill suited they are as they haye been married, and an author's circumstance throws _the couples of a mind into most epter- taining situations. The company' of Lyceum Players as it is composed is well fitted for a most clever presen- tation of the several characters of the play. . FEATURES OF MERIT ON IéEENEY’S BILL There . are several . features - on Keeney’s. bill this week of exceptional ‘merit. The program is arranged to suit all tastes and there dis not a number on it that is without at 'least wue point that °“will ' interest every- one. Novel features in' the act of the Three Harveys, gelebrated cyclists and basketball / players, make it one of the most attractive headliners that has been offered at the theater in a long time., ese 4people are the originators of the game of basketball on bikes and they give a clever ex- hibition of their skill in the act in which théy are now appearing. There is-.plenty of excitement in the game and the audience watches it with a display of considerable enthusiasm. Collier and the Clifton sisters give a' banjo concert that. is meetitig with spproval. every day. They are expert benjoists and play popular rag selec- tions in entertaining fashion,. varying their program with a few clever imi- tations. % Nawanand Blirig, guards: the Yappank sur- prises; Greeves, *and Coe entertnin ‘with selections on the saxaphoné and ‘other brass instruments and Florence Talbot sings pepular songs. FRRE W N % EGGS IN. LOVE SCENE. ‘Waterbury Audience’ Dislikes London Galety "Girls. ‘Waterbury, May, 8.—The Gaiety Girls, who have been playing at the Jacques since Mondgy after- noon, ended their local engagement ‘Wednesday night, -thoroughly dis- gusted with Waterbury and its bou- Qquets, as they didn’t approve of the bouquets that were thrown af them. During the second act of the per- tdrmance, when the comedian was proposing to the “prima donna” and everything was so quiet that the drop of a pin could be heard, an egg that was not laid in the international con- fest at Storrs last week described a pretty spiral in the air 'and landed a few inches from the love-makers. The spiral was succeeded by a splash; substantial evidence of the audience’s esteem . decorated the pair and en- veloped the stage with an aroma that was more substantial than most of the girls’ clothing. In an instant all the lights. in the house were turned on and two offl- cers of the law were on the job scent- ing for a clue. They scented—and not in vain—though they found no trl‘ce of the athletic burlesque admir- er. The agdience, which was very small, screamed with laughter, and for a few minutes the house was in disorder. The show resumed, but just as the two comedians came out, the rematk of ““Go ahead, throw- it,” was heard. The wise management ordered all the’ lights turned on once more, and Fthis time they were kept going full ‘blast. The management of the house ationed a man in every corner of he house to avold the further depos~ it of tokens of esteem on the stage., This is the first time that anything of this manner has occurred in a local ‘thedter in some time. The au- ‘| dience. seemed to enjoy the added at- traction and ‘left the house in better humor than any other audience that saw the London Gaiety show. Miss Ryan hag a réally wonderful showing of new shirt waists now at h hop, 79 Pratt street, Hartford, m lly everything that is abso- utel g@ewfin dislfni and the v;;y €8t of materials, as organdie, feopilette ' crepe, figured crepe de new in colors—every one smart blouses.—advt. en, dc some clever acrobatids |' ;| and introduce ‘several comedy London | |“Break Hearts, Not Windows” Says Woman Writer and Lecturer If Women Refuse to Cook, Wash, Kiss Their Husbarids or Even Look at Them, the Vote Will Come Quickly. “Break hearts, not windows,” so Mrs. Havelock Ellis, English writer and lecturer and wife of the distin- guished physician and ecritic, advised members of the woman suffrage party at the tea given in her honor at headquarters, 48 East Thirty-fourth street, New York, on Wednesday. “If we women would refuse to cook, wash, kiss our hushands or even look at them, ang just sit down with our most charming manner and our hands in our pockets—17 pockets if we wanted them—we should get near- er the vote than we do by destroy- ing valuable paintings and irritating those who are really in sympathy with us. “I have always thought so, and just before I ‘left I tried my theory on a farmer who lives pear my Cornish home. i “ ‘What +do the crazy want?’ he asked. . “ ‘They want their rights. They own property like you. Why shouldn’t they vote?’ ” Old Farmer Giles Ts Pleased. “Well, there's somepin’ in that,” he admitted. So I explained my idea to him.. When I had finished he struck | his fist on the ‘table. “ ‘My God, they’d get in a night!” he said. “But there is some excuse for the English women even in their crazy pranks. All during Saturday’s par- ade I watched from the automobile the faces of the men along the streets, but T saw not one man who looked | as some Engliskmen ‘do. There was rot a single sneer. I sat down and woman fort- | Mrs. William J. Moore, who appear- wrote my husband so. Not" that he ever looked like that__if he had I should hawe left him. But it is to wipe that sort of expression off the faces of English men that English women are willing to go to such lengths to get the vote.” Mrs. Ellis, who wore a lilac silk suit and a close black hat with wings, divided the attention of the audience with two babies, William and Lillie Moore, 3 and 2 years old, children of ed to enjoy Ytheir first suffrage meet- ng.and behaved in the most exem- plary manner. Evil Deed of Tom Watson. So much cannot be said for an-| other unexpected guest, Tom Watson | by name. Tom is a large and en- gaging tiger cat that lives next door and has become_thoroughly convi ed to the cause Since the suffffragists moved in last summer. While every- body was upstairs having tea a large crowd convulsed with laughter was ckserved gathered about the front| window. Investigation disclosed Tom in the! window blissfally licking the frost- ing from the cake model of the White | House, made for the recent cake con- test by Mrs. Willam G. Wilcox’s' chauffeur, .John Price, whose father was a baker. The cake won an hon-| crable mention and has since been (he chief ornament of the suffrage thow window. = But before it was res- cued ‘vesterday its frieze on one side’ had been licked down to the foun-' dation of tin pan. Tom was sent home in disgrace. Household Not es | - et To keep cheese, wrap it in a cloth dipped in vinegar and then cover with waxed paper. Lay paper patterns away flat in a common file book and they will be neither fost nor torn. Heat lemons before squeezing and you will get much more juice. Roll- ing before squeezing has- somewhat the same effect. Use ammonia water always instead of soap if you are cleaning - white paint. It has the advantage of not dulling the surface. ‘Well cooked rice and macaroni can well take the place of potatoes when the old ones are poor and the new ones are too expensive. X If the zinc lining of the refrigera- tor looks battered it can be enameled and made to look like new. Fruit salads should replace heavy puddings and piies for desserts as soon @s warm weather sets in, Boil apples or potatoes fifteen minutes, then bake them. It takes much less time than the usual way. If a room is filled with smoke, open windows and wave a towel wet in vine- gar and hot water around in it. Potatoes, other vegetables and pork chops are among the edibles that may be cooked in the casserole to advan- tage. Hand-braided rag rugs are charm- ing for the summer home .with colonial furnishings. "The woman with up-to-date appli- | ances in her kitchen can reduce cake- making to a science. Every garment must be thoroughly cleaned and aired before it is put away for the summer. The windows are among the most important parts of a house, and’ their proper curtaining is a fine art. Grgpefruit seeds will grow and make beautiful little trees for table decoration. 4 A good way to preserve a bridal bouquet is to make a string of beads out of it. To clean bedroom ware and mar- ble-topped washstands rub well with a rag dipped in turpentine. - This method is useful in a sick room where milk, medicine, etc., are apt to be spilled and require to be quickly re- moved. WEST POINT VS. GIANTS 2nd.

It /is next best to be abie to recognizé good ideas and adopt and adapt them for your own use. Incidentally I think there is altogether too mulch stress laid on origis nality.
