The size of e orchestra will be equal to the ca- city of the theater stage and the cellence of the organization is sec- d to none in the world. At the st concert, Monday evening, No- pmber 13, Miss Winifred Christie, a botch pianiste, will appear as so- list. After a recital in Springfield st Saturday, the critic of the ringfleld Republican said: “It is ldom that one hears so interesting d satisfactory a recital as that giv- g ay by Miss Christi She rst played the first great so in minor by Chopin, Op. 56, of which e gave a magnificent performance, d by which her remarkable artis- c powers could best be sured.

They fre- quently receive letters from their na- tive cities and from the front, which contain human interest glimpses of conditions in Europe which would be revealed in no other way. Something ot the heroisms, the in- tense patriotism, and the spirit of the Austrians, which doesn’t appear like heroism to them, is revealed the following translation of a letter recelved by Franz Stelngruber, from his sister-in-law in Vienna: “Adolph left yesterday for fighting. saw, and from there I think they will send him back to his battery, now at Brest Litosck.

There will be ab- solutely no increase in the admission price ana New Britain will be the first place in the country to see remarkable production except at dollar rates as a ilt. “The Fall of a Naticn” is In a sense a companion play to “The Birth of a \Nation,” which scored such a tremendous suc cess. Both were written by the one author, Thomas Dixon, and were pro- duced on the same gigantic scale. In merit they compare favorably with cach other, both as a story and for the manner in which they are pre- sonted. “The Fall of a Nation” is in seven reels, and judging from the comment of the New York critics it is one of the most elaborate photo- plays ever staged. Thousands of people take part in it and the entire production is most elaborately given. Special music for the piece was com- posed hy Victor Herbert and the Kecney management has arranged to bave it played while the film is being run off. New Britain theatergoers will given a great treat during the weck and the “S. R. O." sign is bound to be in cvidence at all performances. The manzgement scored signally in sctting the fllm at a figure enabling its presentation at the Keeney prices and this feature of its ypearance here is bound to add to its popular- ity.
