My par- ticular little devil must have sat at my elbow. “I am sorry,” I said coldly, “but really, I do not see why it is any more incumbent on me to try to overcome my very real aversion to cats than it is on you to try to do without their society.” ‘‘Very well. If you feel that way about it there is nothing more to be said.” Dicky slammed the living door behind him to emphasize his words and ran down the steps. His soft hat was pulled down to his eye- brows, and any one who ran might read that he was in a rage. Back in the living room, huddled up in the big chair which is the chief pride of the woman who rents us the furnished apartment, I sat, as angry as Dick, and heartsick besides.

Bake this in gem pans in a hot oven. a Boiled Dressing—Beat ‘'two eggs, add a nalf cupful of warm water, a half teaspoonful of salt, a dash of cayenne, a quarter of a teaspoonful of sifted dry mustard and four table- spoonfuls of cider or tarragon vine- gar.

When needed, thin a portion of the dressing with cream, or stir into it an equal amount of stiffly whipped cream. The latter mixture is especially good with an ap- ple and nut salad. COMING TO LYCEUM There has never been so lavish and adequate a production of “Uncle Tom's Cabin” as that which Mr. Burgess will offer amusement lovers at the Lyceum Tuesday, 28, matinee and night. The scenes which are large enough to fill the most spacious stage, could not easily be improved. Those representing the Ohio river in winter, the rocky pass in which George Harris protects his family, the St. Claire plantation, the levee at New Orleans, the cotton fields in full bloom, and the *‘Celestial City,” are all most notable effects. Each pictures the reality as closely as paint ond canvas’/will permit and the stage perspective is so deep that the effect is exceptionally pleasing. The com- pany is also worthy of the environ- ment. Tom Atkins, the eminent min- strel star, offers an excellent study of September g § tone was sharp, TUncle Tom.

The story of ‘““The Song of Hate” is one that strikes deep into the sexual relations between modern men and women. Written in Sardou’s tren- chant style, it hites and scorches like acid the frailities of our modern civ- ilization, “The Song of Hate” is a drama the re-collection of which will “THE BOHEMIAN GIRL” - AT LYCEUM TONIGHT One of the very few entations that attract . children is the Aborn pany’'s big spectacular “The Bohemian Girl,” which comes to the Lyceum, tonight. Balfe's Mas- terpiece in its present amplified form contains much that interests both old and young. Realism is now attained in ‘the several great scenes by the employment of horses, pigs, chickens, monkies, geese and dogs the introduction of which does not mar in the least the beauties of Balfe's beautiful' music. A cast having as its important members, Eileen Castles, Henry Taylor, Mildred Rogers, George Dunstan, Francis Tyler and Ralph Nichalls insures an artistic rendition of the opera. There are some good seats left. CREATORE AND HIS BAND COMING HERE operatic pres- and delights Opera Com- production of Those who ever heard Sig. Creatore and His Band should not fail to at- tend the concert at the Lyceum, Sat- urday evening, this week, for they may never have the opportunity again to do so in this city. It goes without saying that those who have heard this organization in their trav- els will be on hand to welcome the noted conductor to this city. While Sig. Creatore sticks entirely to classi- cal music he will not fail to give his own composition of Southern Melo- dies which has been praised so high- 1y on his Southern Tour. The following quoted from the New York Journal and American, will ex- press an idea of the work of this band: “The wildest demonstration of patriotic spirit ever seen within the walls of a theater was seen when Creatore played ‘The Star Spangled Banner’ last evening. The audience was worked up to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. Every man and wo- man in the theater sprang up; heads were uncovered, and a cheer arose equal to any heard during -the Span- ish-American wat Women stood on chairs, and every raised position and waved handkerchiefs frantically. Men also waved their hats frantically, while there arcse hurrahs that were heard for blocks down Broadway. For eight minutes after the last strain the audience remained standing cheering Creatore and his musicians.” 500TH PERFORMANCE BY POLI PLAYERS The Poli Players long ago smashed all records for u continuous run for a stock company and they now plan an event that will probably stand unequalled in Hartford, the 6500th performance by : stock company. In fact it is thought that it stands unique among stcck companies in thig country. ven the very largest cities seldom support a permanent stock company, but the excellence of the players and the high standard of their plays has made the local Poli company one of the most popular that a city the size of Hartford has even enjoyed. The 500th perfor- mance will be ziven next Monday af- ternoon and Manager Poli has given the order that (very woman attend- ing shall receive a box of chocolates- The managemen: has made provisions for ‘a capacity attendance so that every woman may be assured in ac- vance that she will receive her sou- venir- The play which will be pre- | sented BASED UPON “LA TOSCA” BETTY NANSEN IN THE SONG OF HATE. leng linger verdant in the minds of everyone who seer it projected upoa the screen.

It has stood the test of time and there really is no guarantee quite as strong as the one of years of continued popularity. This week the players are scoring a decided success in the mystery play, “The House of a Thousand Candles,” the stage version of the popular novel, and it is proving to be one of the most absorbind plays of the season. Miss Long, Mr. Ho'- lingsworth, Mr. MacQuarric and the other players ave scoring personal | successes in the play .and it is pro- duced in a manner fitting a road company- _ Seats for next week go on sale Sat- urday morning. “A BUNCH OF KEYS” AND “THE WOMAN” Hoyt's “A Bunch of Ke Four comedy feature, will be a spe- cial attraction at Keeney's tonight and tomorrow. This big laught pro- ducer is said io be one of the fun riest photo-plays ever made and it should prove a splendid feature of the Keeney bill. The comedy is well known to theater-goers, having been given on the “legitimate” stage for a number of seasons. The pic- turization is even moare amusing and “movie” devotees cannot afford to miss it. Sharing top position with it will be “The Woman,” a powerful drama, Iresented by an all-star cast. Both of these are five reel features and to- night's xhow should be exceedingiy popular- The Pathe Weekly will also be on tonight's progrum. The most popular of the vaudevilie attractions is the singing act in whicn the' Ten Irish Coicens appear. In this aggregation there are some excep- tionally fine singcrs and the several numbers are rendered in pleasing style. C. H. Hamiiton, black-face en- tertainer, gives an entertaining mon- ologue and sings a few coon songs acceptably. The Norney sisters and clever exponents of fancy dancing and their act is very popular.
