Page of News for Theater Goers and Women Readers Reviews of Week’s Bills at Theaters Lyceum Company Begins Its Last Week With Southern Play The Lyceum Stock company began its last week of the season at the Lyceum last evening with the four- act play, “The Belle of Richmond" with Miss Marion Hutchins in the title role. As the name indicates the scenes of the play are laid in Vir- ginia's capital. A reception is being given at the home of Judge Mason in honor of the debut of his daughter, Nellie, who has two admirers, Gerala Gordon and William Osmond, the | former a lawyer and the latter a cashier in her father's bank in Rich- mond. They are known to her as Jerry and Bill. The latter tells her that Jerry is going north ta be mar- ried and to be gone a year -on his | honeymoon and ské. becomies so | piqued that she agrees to marry : Bill only to find him out later in the lie, that he has been a defaulter in the bank to the extent of several thous- ands of dollars and that a pal of his ! Who has been employed as an expert | accountant has accused Charles Lee, | |.another clerk, in thé bank, resulting |in his arrest and the estrangement of | the fathers of the young man ana | Mies Mason- after a lifetime of | friendship. Jerry is employed to de- fend the young man and it is to him that Silas Smart, a New Yorker. tells how Osmond and Green, the bank ex- pert, are in reality ‘two crooks and had been engaged, in the same kind of a job before. Lee is acquitted, Jerry gives Bill a sum of money to go away and begin life anew and as the curtain falls the audience is giv- en to understand that there is soon to be a wedding and that Jerry and Nellie are to be the principals. The play hag the true southern at- mosphere, the lines are expressive and the sentiment is that of the chivalrous people which so well becomes the aristocracy of the south. There could not be two characters more dissimilar than those of Jerry ana Bill, the former played by Mr. Cross and the latter hy Mr. Sage. They had been friends but both fell in '1ove ‘with the same girl and that did what it often did before. Mr. Cross wag reserved in his love making buu forcible in his work as ‘the lawyer, making a good dramatic combination Mr: Sage was more, animated in the beginning but ag his true character was being discovered he did his best THE THREE SHAWS, Singers_ and Dancers.

Five in every ten children observed outside of school hours in the aver- work, showing that beneath the sur- face there was some good in him. Mr. (Fuller played Judge Mason splendidly, manifesting at all times the old southern pride and dignity. John Mullin was ‘Colonel Lee, father of the bank clerk, a much too serious role for him, Walter Schmidt played the clerk and Mr. Birch the New Yorker who told the story to Jerry and told it well, too, emphasizing ev- ery point. He was at his best, how- ever, in his scenes with Winifred Ma- son who had a wig for every gown. Mr. Locke was the colored servant, a part calling for exacting characteri- zation. Tt was his first;time in such a part and it seems as if it is in this line that hig talent lies! He lookea the old negro who had been a slave and who had lived with the Masons for a great many years and he pre- sented him with ‘the halting step of age and .the peculiar- hesitation in speech of the negro as he was raisea on the plantation and who had been a servant ar the big house. His work ‘could not have been improved upon. John Todd, a new member of the cast, was the bank expert. New Britain people have not haa much of an opportuuity to see Miss Hutchins on the stage, she being in farce comedy last week, her first ap- pearance here. She is well fitted, however, for serious roles, having a strong, clear voice, which she uses to perfection, and a very attractive stage presence. She gave pride, ten- | derness and a little bit of anger to | the part of Nellie and looked gooa enough to be in reality the belle of Richimond. Mrs. Hibbard played her sister with plenty of good naturea humor.. Miss De Voe was another ot the attractive Mason girls and Grace Barton played the judge's sister. The plece was well staged and it is really one of the best bills of the season. | “THE GYPSY CAMP" | LEADS AT KEENEY'S . “The Gypsy Camp," miniature cpera, presented by the Ova Opera company as the headline attraction at Keeney's this week is one of the best musical specialties ever offered in this city. In the troupe are six talented people and their powerful voices blend in perfect harmony in every number they remder. Thelr act is made up in r.ovel fashion and while it is distinc- tively original it gives opportunities for the introduction of the hits from the popular Italian operas as well as some English numbers. It is well worth seeing. Lovers of music will find the show this week especially attracive, prac- tically every number on the program featuring either vocal or instrumental selections. The Three Shaws, known in vaude- a age city are loafing—doing nothing at all because, as they say, “There is nothing te do,” according to Arthur C.

Illinois will be dangerous ground for thousands of couples if the legis- lature should enact into law a bill recommended by the Illinois Bar as- soclation, in session there. The pro- posed law provides that the marriage ir. any other state of persons forbidden to marry in Illinois shall not be recog- nized in that state. If such a measure were placed on the statute books all those who are divorced in [Illinois and remarry within a vear in another state would be subject to arrest and prosecution should they return to that state, Their association would be outside the pale of legality and they could be punished severely for what are re- ferred to politely as statutory offenses. Since. the law was .enacted prohibit- ing wemarriage inIllinois within a year following the signing of a decree of divorce hundreds. of men and women have gone bver into Indiana, Wisconsin ‘and other states and have taken new' life parthiers. In this way they haveievaded «He intent of the law and escaped punishment. Under the proposed law theyv would not be , husbands and wives. The women would be denied the protec- tion of the statutes intended to guard the property of wives. Any children they might have would not be legiti- matized. Violators ‘of the law would be subject to arrest on serious charges if they should register at hotels, take up residences in houses or flats or occupy apartments aboard trips through the state. Under a strict construction of the act so proposed cousins who should go from Illinois into any other state and | should there wed would be under the ben of the law upon their return to the former state. The same thing would apply to those who are under the marriageable age designated by the statutes of Illinois. The law could not be retroactive, and it would not apply to those who already have disregarded the ‘‘one year injunction” against remarriage. Still many of these, fearful of compli- cations, have taken the precaution to have a second marriage ceremony per- fcrmed after the lapse of a vear. In some cases the couples have agreed to live apart during the legal period of irhibition, hoping thus to escape the effects of the law. Another law proposed by the asso- clation is that there must be a period of thirty days between the time of procuring a license to wed and the time of marriage. Objection was raised hy some members of the bar association on the ground that such a legal provision would increase immor- would not furnish a on unhappy com- mar- ality and pensating check riages. such rapid succesion that the echo of one is hardly gone before another is heard. Lillian Shaw's best bid for favor is her rendition of “Isle D’Amour,” while her sister, Annette, impression with her humorous number, “I Love to Quarrel to Play with You."" The male member of the tric made good with the “first nighters” for his singing of Irving Berlin's latest hit: ‘They're On Their Way to Mexico.” Zenita, the girl with the diamond violin, captivates her audience with her b“yhewme. Joyous dances, playing her own accompéniment, as she floats around the stage. She is a graceful little creature and is charming in her every movement. She ie one of the youngest violinists giving stage con- certs and judging from the reception given her last night, she is bound to be successful. The Nine Stage-struck Kids enter- tain with songs and dances. They have a good juvenile turn and should find favor every day. Steven's big bear, the famous wrestling Jim, is some entertainer too. Jim is a wenuine Alpine grizzly and looks very ferocious. He is quite tame, however, and works well with his trainer. His wrestling with his trainer s unique and should attract at- tention all week. Thurston, a former end man with Dockstader's minstrels, is giving a monologue that is way above the or- dinary. LOCAL MAN TAKES NEW JERSEY BRIDE Otis M. Scripture and Miss Emily G.

Has anyone seen Pawoloa Sawolow- ski of 52 Grove street” If so, please report the matter to her family, members of which have not seen her since last Thursday. The young lady, it is sald, had ambitions to become a nurse, and the probability is that she left town to enter a hospital. Pawoloa's friend, a druggist Union City, has been communicated with, but he asserts that he knows nothing of her whereabouts. The last he heard of her he read on a post card which she sent him last week to inform him that she would be un- able to see him on Decoration day, owing to the fact that she was to be in Waterbury at that time, in Tooth Affinities The enamel of the teeth and the acids in the mouth have a strong attraction for each other. These mouth-acids seek out weak spots in the enamel —and by constant action finally pierce this ‘“‘armor plate” of protection and readily get into the ““inside-tooth.” This is the cause of g59% of all tooth-decay.

The Ypiranga cleared for Europe by way of Havana. As she left the harbor the German cruiser Dresden unexpectedly hauled up her anchor and followed to sea. There was a report also that the liner's destinu- { tion was Puerto Mexico. | Neither Brigadier General Funston nor any other army or navy officer heard the rumor that some of the Huerta family were aboard the Ypir- anga until after the steamer had sailed. There is no means to verify the report or to get a positive denial. A simflar report of a more vague nature was in circulation Saturday, but this the ship's officers and agents denied.
