BROADWAY THEATER. “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch.” Local No, €63, \ AT AT “Mrs. Wlt& of the Cabbage Patch” comes to the Broadway theater on Sat- Ac-ll 10, matines and night. The terest of this three act foot- light adaptation of Mrs. Alice Hegan | Rlee’s storfes made by Mrs. Anne C Flexner centers in the mirth provoking episode of Mr. Stubbius and his matrimontal designs upon little | Mig® Hazy, the meek and .mmess. neighbor ¢f Mrs, Wiggs. This portion of the orlginal fiction has been elab- eorated to a notable extent, until the audlence is kept in a state of merri- ment from the beginning of the play until the end. Lovey Mary's runaway flight from the erphanage with Little Tommy has been chosen by Mrs. Flex- ner in the great plot of the dramatic version. The pky is arranged in three ncts, all the scenes of which are laid in the “Cabbage Patch.” The cast of, 48 principel characters comprises al- most all of the now famillar figures, while several new ones have been in- trodweed, most prominent among them being Hunkerdunkus Jones, the matri- monlal agent, who Introduces Mr. Ssub- thins upon the sceme as o bridegroom. Thguvenflc element of the stories in wh Mrs. Rice proved to be such an eppreciative ohserver has not been overlooked in the dramatization, and all the Wiggs chlldren, Asia, Australia and | Furopens. and Billy, picturesque little Tommy and peg-legged Chris, are all intreduced Into the scene. Prof. John Duxbury. Mr. John Duxbury is about to make his third visit to the Unlted States. His perfect mastery of the art of elo- cwtion, his magnificent voice, his de- vout Christian character inspire great interest in his fine scriptural recitals, while his ability in miscellaneous ?loe-. ‘both grave and humorous, great- v please and fascinate the young peo- ple His rendering of the Life of Jo- seph is high toned, vivid, picturesque, and Pull of feeling. The audience not enly hear, but see the characters, and sbove all the seif effacement of the re- citer, lends the greatest charm to this beautiful story. Prof. Duxbury sailed from England on the Mauretania, now due in New. York, and makes almost his first ap, irance in the Osgood Me- merial on ter Monday. Vaudeville at the Broadway Theater Next Week. Sit up straight and take notice that Nerwich will see during the week of April 12th some of the finest vaude- mille that has been before the public in this city in many months. ThHe Eroadway theater has every advantage in giving these fine productions. Its #tage size, its equipment for lighting, s breadth of curtain, all will help to make thess acts satisfactorily put on. The people of Norwich will be @eas- ed to hear that the Willard’s Temple of Music is to be one of the many acts at 'the Broadway theater next week, which is eaid to be the greatest music act in the world. It you are feeling blue come and hear Gardner and. Golden, the two fuany men in black, they will make you laugh until you cry. Emmett and McNeil, novelty singers and dancers, are the real thing and e sure and see this. ! ‘The greatest comedy dramatic sketch, entitled Before the Play, is a wonder, and Margaret Keene and Co. make you glad that you went to the Broadway theater. . Sandy Donaldson's singing, dancing and imper=onations is what we all have been waiting for and will please every- body. Everybody that sees ths perform- ance Monday will be sure to come and mee It two or three more times during the week. The moving pictures are changed every Monday and Thursday and will be of the kind to please ev- 4 Dry Goods and Fi Be Open All Day Today. This year sees the inauguration of a new custom. All the dry goods and furnishing ssores of the city will be open all day Friday before Easter. The change is made in the 'belief that it will be of benefit to the shopping pub- lic. Puting off all the KEaster shop- ping till the very day before means doing many things in a rush and doing them unsatisfactorily. The opening of the stores today gives l.bundnnge of time to everybody to do their Easter shopping leisurely, and all the local merchants are satisfled that the public will appreciate the convenience. The Maxwell Still Going. ‘When F. J. Tyler of Boston started a Maxwell touring car in Boston, on March 18, for a run of 10,000 miles, to be made without once stopping the engine, there were many who felt cer- tain that the feat would never be ac- complished, for never has an automo- bile gone the distance without stopping the engine many times. Yet in spite of this fact the engine has now been running three weeks, having covered 8,500 miles without once &topping, run- ning 24 hours each day with never a let up, and never so much as the miss- ing of a single explosion, Never has this been accomplished by ' an automobile engine, and never in fact has any passenger vehicle trav- eled this distance under its own power without & stop. It is a distance not easily realized, more than three times the distance from New York to San Francisco, yet the Maxwell has done almost all of this to date without the least engine trouble. The run to date has been the wonder of the automobile world, and never has any automobile event attracted the at- tention that the one now in progress has, for it is, to say the least, a revela- tion of the capabilities of a Maxwell engine Bernard Ring, on Chestnut street, is the local agent for this machine, " See him before placing your order. See adv. BREED THEATER. The Curtain Pole Screaming Moving Picture Success. ‘What promises to'be one of the most sucgessful bills shown at the Bred theater is now on and the audience left the theater last evening in a hilarious mood, after witnessing the big comedy picture, The Curtain Pole. There is not a dull moment in this picture, and from the moment the Frenchman pur- chases the pole unt#l he reaches the house “with it there are more laughs to the minute than in any other pic- ture ever shown at this theater. There is a tremendous demand for this pic- ture, so the. manager will be able to hold it only until Saturday, but it will be shown at every performance on that day. The highly interesting, romantic and tragic history of Charlotte Corday is vividly represented, and to add to its interest it is beautifully hand colored. The Tragic Love is another feature picture, produced by the American Biograpih company, and is a great nov- elty in the story line, and 1s very ab- sorbing in its interest, as is the sweet little story of His Ward’'s Love, that deals with the mutual love of a young minister and his ward. The Assassination of the Duke de Guise is a strong picture, but very ac- curate in every detail, completing an excellent programme. Madam Morelle and Mr, Delaney sing at éach perform- ance. At the Roderick. Large audiences greeted the Passion Play, which was shown st the Roderick commencing Thursday. It will be con- tinued all week. In addition to the above there were shown a new thrilling western picture, A Cowboy’s Argument, and Talked to Death. Mr. O'Nell ren- dered The Holv City in a very capable manner, and was applauded loudly. A special feature for the remainder of the week will be Miss Jennie Heffernar a well known local soprano, w sesses a sweet, clear voice. sing The Palms. Al] ladies remember that on Saturday afternoon a beautiful Easter souvenir will be presented to every lady to the extent of 200. Don't fail to attend this week, at the usual Easter Shopping at the Mohican. Easter with all its attendant joys and pleasures will be incomplete with- out the usua} holiday supply of the | many good things to eat which are now | rolling into town by the train load. The Mohican company has been an- ticipating an unusually heavy trade, and for some time past has been mak- ing preparations to supply their patrons with all kinds of pure meats, smoked hams, fresh, new lald eggs, vegetables, butter, fancy and staple groceries, fresh fruits, and an exceptionally large as- sortment of baked goods. The shopper wishing to select her needs will ind an abundant variety at her disposal, and the wise housekeeper will do her trading early. MAYOR LANDERS HONORED.
