The artists giving the concert are Senor Guetary, the tenor, late of Royal opera, Covent Garden, and Madame Katharine Noack Fique, soprano, of New York, with Miss Augusta Hsborn of London as ac- companist. Both these singers are to appear in the Hudson-Fulton celebra- tion. BROADWAY THEATER. “The Matchmaker.” “The Matchmaker” is called an Amer- fcan comedy. Truly enough, the vein of humor runs through the lines like a erystal thread, but there are times when one is inclined to forget that it is a comedy, and treat it seriously. Around the strong personality of Mr. Sully, as Father Daly, there is created an atmosphere of real human nature, ®o far from the common device of comedy that one forgets to laugh in drinking in the peauties of the char- acter sketch. so surely, yet so artictic- ally presented. o ‘While the entire company supporting Mr. Sully is unquestionably good the play is, after all, an illustration of a stage story in which the atmosphere and the intcrest are the creations of the star. Without Mr. Sully, with his strong portrayal of geniality, the fashes of humor that follow, the lines in his generous face, and the heart in- tereet inspired by the portrayal of his more serious moods, “The Matchmak- er” would be like the play “Hamlel” without the character of Hamlet. With these qualities “The Matchmaker” is a bright, pleasing production, flavored with the milk of human kindness and possessing an atmosphere throughout that is as wholesome and clean as it is pleasing. “We Are King" Bugene Weber will appear at the Broadway theater on Monday, Sept. §, matinee and night, in Walker White- gide’s greatest success, “We Are King,” a comedy in three acts by Lieut. Gordon Kean, author of “The Magie Melody.” This play is one that appeals strongly to the lovers of clean, bright comedy. r, Weber is possessed of unlimited taients which have advvanced him ra v in his profession. He will be ably supported by Philip White, William Carroll, Hugh Wynne, John O. Hewilt, M:es Maude Shaw, Miss Ruth Gadsby and Miss Merriman. Mr. Weber is tunder the management of A. W. Cross, who has given him a complete pro- @uction. BROOKLYN FAIR. The Windham County Agricultural mocietty will pass the 100th ann of its organization and give its annuval exhibition at Brookly week, and to properly observe the event the managers of the fair have ! been busy for weeks striving to make the fair @ big success. The dates selected are Sept. 7, 8 and 9. The first day will be entry day, and everything will be in readiness for the last two days of the fair. This good old fair is going to be better than ever this year, and in addition, to the many regular attractions there are to be many new features to entertain all who attend. One hundred years of ex- fstance is the record’ of the life of this the oldest agricultural society in the United States. Ties year the fair will be héld with a special idea of fittingly observing- this anniversary, and the managers are extending an invitation to all the old friends of the fair to be presént. Maintaining all the charac- | teristics that have made this fair a favorite for mere than half a century, | the persons in charge have added new attractions this year and the f will provide one grand opportunity to spend | a delightful day. One big atiraction will be Buckskin Bill's wild ‘west show. This exhibition | will include ‘many startling acts and | depict the stirring scenes of life in the great west. The Brooklyn fair s an old home day for the people of Windham and New ILondon counties, and every- body who wants to sce a good cattle shyw, good racirg. fin= farm and dairy products and a chance *o greet their friends shbuld remember the date.

While this is only a record picture, it will serve several purposes, First, let it said that it is a record. It is well thal such an important occurrence should be permanentiy recorded. Genera- ti+ns vot ‘e come can scc how the ae- roplane looked and behaved during the time it s undergoing an official test of its capabilities. Next, it will afford means by which thousands can sec_that test who did not see it and never would have had any adequate idea of what it was or how the ma- chine looked. These two purposes are perhaps sufficient to vomyensate for the, ellort revuired to obtain the picture Moreover, the firm is be congratu- lated upon obtaining Ysucn exceilent pictues. They were all made from just the cight point of view -to repro- duce clearly the movement of the ae- roplanes ‘and they demonstrate anew the wonderful adaptability of the mo- tion picture to record work, The pic- tures are clear. There is absence of the mud and blur which has made many other attempts of this character only partially successful, and the one who sees these pictures will have a reasonably accurate knowledge of the test of the aeroplane and they will see the important men who witnessed it. LINCOLN PARK. Although most of the nights this week have been cool, Lincoin park has had very good patronage and in Rustic theater, where the last show of the season is being put on, the reserved ceats and ordiniry seats both sell well, and the five acts are liberally applaud- ed. This week's is proving a fav- orite with evervbody, and its favorable reception is abundantly deserved, for o\',m'y act is a fine little feature in it- self. After last night's show, at 9.45, came the rockets, ushered in by the custom- ary blaze of redfire along the margin of the pond that lies ‘between the park and Hallville. There have been four nights of fireworks at the park dur- ing the past month, and the patrons on each of these nights have appreciated the fine display of rockets, candles, bombs, and the iike. Last night's py- rotecinics lasted about a quarter of an hour and were witnessed by a con- siderable crowd in the park as well as by scores of people who stood along the tracks and in the roadway leading from the park station to the gateway. While the rockets were being sent up the lizhts in the park were turned off and the arc on the tall pole between the gate and the track likewise took a vacation. The fireworks ended, the or- chestra in the pavilion got busy again, the floors filled up with merry dancers and the “light, fantastic toe” was tripped steadily until 11. The show, as usual, made a hit. The La Jess couple, Theodore and Camille, were all right with their trapeze work and contortions, and Joe Burke's Hizhlard seng and dance, like his oth- er songs, took immensely Stewart and Desmond in “Cohen the Cop” made the supmmer playvhouse shake with laughter, the way they've been doing since Monday night. Musical Heuhn played his five or six different instruments very humorously as well as handily. Hodges and Launchmene in their “Ocean Voyage” and also in their very novel and original “Tomecat SCerenade” won vociferous encores. The last fr2e concert of the season comes Sunday at 3.20, with a pro- gramme that everybody is bound to k=, BREED THEATER. A Strange Meeting, Wonderful Story of the Slums.

MUCH IN LITTLE A dehtist surgeon expresses the opinion in The Dundee Advertiser that the chief cause of the increase of al troubles in recent years is that the bread now generally used is made from roller-ground flour. Bermuda prodiucers are beginning to find it more profitable to meet the wants of the increasing influx of vis- itors than to compete with the Gulf ard South Atlantic truck farmers in the New York markets. The great telepscope of the Paris ax- position of 1900, which was built at a cost of $150,000. is now effered for sale by .the receiver of the expesition at about one-tenth of its cost. Its housing requires a building 130 Yeet long. There are in Germany about 7,500 hospitals in which 1,200,000 patients are annually treated. Adding to the the inmates of private sanatoria and patients treated at home, it is esti- mated that at all timés one person in sixty of the pouplation is seriously fl1. . Ruby mining is carried on in Upper Burma, and next to petroleum iws the most profitable of the mineral re- sources of the state, the value of the product being about $500.000° annually.
