Sole Distributers for New England States BALDPATE” COMING George M. Cohan’s latest play: | “Seven Keys to Baldpate,” which is to be presented here at the Lyceum next Thursday is melodrama intentionally | gone wrong to the point of side- splitting bu¥esque under the grav- est masks that remain unlifted until just before the last curtain falls. George M. Cohan, that astonishing- ly versatile and always supremely self-confident incarnation of Broad- way in its most swaggering mood, | made this play from the Ear] Derr Biggers novel of the same name, The languidly venturesome plot of ugeven Keys to Baldpate” fools ay- diences to the top of its bent through- out about nine-tenths of the time re- quired for the acting of the piece. At the opening of the story one learns that the imaginatively fertile Wiliam Hallowell Magee has made & bet of $5,000 with the owner of Baldpate Inn, a summer hotel, that he cap write a “best seller” novel Within a period of twelve hours’ time from the moment his fiction-grinding machine makes its first click on the work. To give away any more Of the unique plot would be unfair to the author and a distinct loss to the im- aginative minds of his prospective | oudiences. It is sufficient to say that the hero wins the $5,000 bet, but in its accomplishment he is confronted with an accompaniament of weird happenings that lift the piece out of the conventional and keeps its on- lookers at a point of high tension through every minute of the enact. ment if the piece.

DIRECT CURRENT FOR KEENEYSCOPE Since the installation of an elabor- ate system for transforming eleglric current from alternate to dirett be- fore it enters the motion picture ma- chine at Keeney's, there has been a remarkable improvement in the light- ing effects as the photo-plays are thrown on the screen at this popu- lar theater. While theater-goers have conceded for some time that nowhere in the state have the pictures shown any clearer or 10 better advantase than at Keeney's, those who have ben at any of the shows since the trans- former has been in service have been amazed ut the change. It is one of those improvements considered im- possible until after it is made. The management went to big expense in getting the apparatus installed but it is satisfied that the results show the expense o have been well warranted. Keeney’'s not only shows clearer pictures than any other theater but always presents the latest program of the recognized leaders of the film makers: The photo-play stars are all seen at this popular playhouse and the scenarios are shcwn as soon as they are released for metropolitan thea- ters. Besides there is a first class vaudeville show, the combination making an entertainment hard to equal much less excell, at any price. Tonight's double feature will be “House of the Lost Court” the big film comedy, Viola Dale in lead, and Hoyt’s “A Bunch of Keys,” the big film comedy. These are big attrac- tions and they should attract big au- diences. Listed on vaudeville program are the Norley sisters, fancy dancers; C. H. Hamilton, blackface comedian and The Ten Famous singers, UNCLE TOM'S CABIN AT LYCEUM TUESDAY The Earl Burgess ‘“Uncle Tom's Cabin” will appear in New Britain at the Lyceum Thursday, Sept. 28. No play ever written is better known in all parts of the United States to all classes of people than “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” not even the plays of immor- tal Shakespeare, for the play ot slavery has been given in every vil- lage and hamlet in this broad coun- try, and it-has been estimated that it is being played somewhere in ‘this land of ours on every day in the year. Mr. Burgess has given it a hand- some and expensive mounting and as played by a Burgess company, the play leaves nothing to be desired, either in scenery or players. A large company of negroeos are with the company and will be seen in planta- tion pastimes and festivities. The role of “Uncle Tom” is in the hands of Tom Atkins, the well known minstre] star. The company is a large one, numbering 30 people, six Siberian bloodhounds and a car of special scenery. A novel parade will be given at 12 ©’clock on date of the show.

Bridgeport, Sept. 24.—The loss of four fingers does not in the eyes of the workmen’s compensation law con- stitute loss of a hand, according to a decision made vesterday by Compen- sation Commissicner E, T. Bucking- ham. Several months ago James De Vita lost four fingers in a machine at fuctory of Atlantic Insulated Wire and Cable company in Stamford, anl sought to recover under the compen- sation act for the loss of a hand.
