Medern Whale Fishing, Big Moving Picture Feature, With this spiendid and instructive pioture as a feature, the Breed theater opened the new bill for the remainder of the week to a large and appreclative audiencq, which was most enthusfas- tic in following the details of this ex- traordinary picture. The complete trip is shown, and from the moment of the sighting of the monster whale to the final stripping of the fat for meaking oil there is not a dull moment, and the clearness of all the scenes is most re- markable. The motion of the sea is so perfect that it seems as i the audience was on fhe trim little boat themselves, the demk being free from passengers, there are no obstacles to ebstruct the view. Another big picture is the one en- titled At the Altar, end the Sioilian scenes are a revelation to the public, while the fascinating story is intensely interesting. The Dime Novel Detective t the real Hawshaw thing, and the many ludi- \rous climaxes make it one of the best | comedy pictures of the season, there belng a laugh for every minute. The beautiful colored fairy pictures are a treat for the patrons, the children being especially delighted. Queen of the Night, as sung by Mad- | am Morelle, is the hit of the week, and Mr. Delaney ig pleased to sing by pop- ular request, Love Me Any Time. AT THE BROADWAY THEATER. Vaudeville and Motion Pictures. The lady member of the team of Collins and Ballard, the novelty sine- ing act playing at the Broadwav this week, hag worn some of the most beautiful gowns shown here this sea- #on Her dresges are the creation of Worth and the duty on them alone cost & emall fortune in itself. Miss Ballard is very fortunate in that she can have anything that money can buy, as she comes from an immensely wealthy family and ig merely on_the stage as a matter of choice. For the matinee Saturday she has held in re- serve her most beautiful gown to be shown to the ladies and children at- tending. Misg Ballard does neot al- low her immense wealth to interfere with her work and she and her nart- ner have an act that is a distinct nov- elty and has been making a hig hit all week, Legislative Recess? The New London Telegraph propcees that the legislature take a wvacation, and the idea, while novel, is not whelly without its advantages. Considering the continued illness of the governor the Important measures to be disposed of, the rush of home work which awaits the representatives from the smaller towns, the call of the soil, the tenden y to Mvide attention when it should be concentrated, the Inevitable dissatis- faction which results from doing leg- islative work in a hurry-——considering the matter from all apparent view- paimts, it might be a good idea for the legislature to take a few months off. The Telegraph says: “It is variously estimated that the general essembly will come to final adjournment some time between Juy 1 and Sept. 1, with the greater number of estimates adhering to the Septemter date. If the estimates are founded on a fair welghing of the business before the legielature, then we suggest as a remedy that the general assembly ad- journ now until next October and de- vote the winter monthe to passing on the business in hand. Thls wou!d give the farmers all the time their duties ot home demand and put off until the cos days indoor business whiech mwight jus- as well go over without great loss to the state or to any individual. And uy that time Governor Lilley will be re- stored to health and strength, and wome of the nervous men at Hartford could then take a more comfortable wiew of the necessity of legislating for mny future stringency such as exists at present. For all that is coming out of the legislative hopper, doesn't it seem it might be just as well to postpone the whole session about five months?” —Ansonia Sentinel, Not That Color, ‘Willie lost his pet dog and was much distressed. He spent his time search- Ing for it, and so often did he run into the house crying, “Come quick; there's ¥ido! I saw him!"” the family grew somewhat dublous. One day Willie rushed in more excit- ®d than usual. “Mamma, mamma!” he eried, “I've seen Fido! FPve geen Fido!” ¢ “Oh, no; 1 guess mot,” replied the “patient mother. “It must have been your imagination Willie looked at her, much ag- grieved. “Well,” he said indignantly, *“1 guess my 'magination 1isn’t white ®ehind.”—Exchange. Disappearing Home Life. The flat dwelier ought not to keep a dog, prefers not to keep a cat, cannot have a garden, has no chance of keep- ing house, has no possible place for memories and, most emphatically of all, has no use or accommodation for bables.
