John Philip Sousa has a palatable way, all his own, of appearing occa- sionally in a most informal and hearty way and offering one or moer of his clever popular concerts to a public that geems at all times to be waiting for them. It must be granted that the famous conductor fairly deserves his good fortune in winning the public’s favor, for he began long ago with odds against him, and fought his way into prime favor by force of direct purpose, unfaltering fidelity and genuine merit. He offered a good article for entertain- ment and never adulterated its quality, the public liked the brand and adopt- ed it, and very soon a Sousa band concert became as salable an article as the amusement market afforded, and was snapped up whenever offered. Sou- ga is now on a prolonged transconti- nental tour, his ninth, and the entire band and eminent soloists will be here on Thursday, Dec. 16th, at the Broad- way theater. BREED THEATER. The Fisherman’s Bride, Thrilling Fta- ture Picture. The customary large number of spectators was present at the Breed theater last evening, and they were shown an exceptionally fine series of thgh grade motlon pictures. The fea- ture picture of the first part of the week is entitled The Fisherman’s Bride, and is a most complete and interesting feture. The pretty little fisher girl, gelng much admired by local fisher- men, bestows her love upon one modest fisherman from across the bay, much against her stern father’s wishes, for he has selected a husband for her. She rebels and marries the man of her cholce, going immediately to, his home. The dismayed suitors seek for revenge, and entrap the young groom upon the wharves and carry him far out to sea, put, having witnessed the affair from a distance, the bride hurries to the po- lice tug and tells her story, and they put a hot chase afrer the culpriis, the police chasing in one of the speedy pilot boats, capturing the entire gang of villians, and returning the missing m to the surrowing wife,and bring- g the would-be abductors to justice. Splendid Biograph features are in- cluded on the list, and the very un- usual story revealed in this feature has a strong moral, making it of ab- gorbing interest and great beauty, the ball room scene being especially hand- some. Miss Wolcott is singing the famous waltz song, “The Butterfly,” by Gelli, ghowing her coloratura work to ad- vantage. GYPSY MOTH Discovered in Wallingford—Detected by Former Resident of Bay State. The gypsy moth, one of the most dread of parasites and the existence of which has cost the country many thousands of dollars, is well installed in the -borough of Wallingford, and only that a. former resident of Mas- sachusetts, who had experience with the moth, discovered some on Meadow street last week and notified Warden Becroft, the moth might have passed the winter unobserved and hatched out next spring by the millions. When the warden heard the report that the moth had been seea in the shape of cocoon he determined to investigate and Sunday morning started out and made a thorough search through the lower section of the borough in the vicinity of Meadow street. His search led him to North Colony street and there many trees were found to be carrying the clusters of eggs that would play havoc if left until spring. But this was not all. Through the entire length of Colony street as far as searched the cocoons were found. Meadow street trees were covered, and in front of the warden’'s own res- jdence on North Whittlesey avenue the same conditions were discovered. =Meriden Record. GAME WARDEN DECEIVED. Trap for Calves Got David H. Clark of New Haven All Excited. A story involving Game Warden David H. Clark is going the rounds, and is causing much mirth among a certain element of sportsmen who ex- perience a feeling of satisfaction any time a bit of trouble befalls the min- jons of the law, according to the New Haven Palladium. It seems that a short time before the game season closed a bold hunter while dashing through the woods near Doolittle’s peach orchard at Mt. Car- mel happened to stumble across a con- trivance which he immediately assum- ed was a deer trap. Here was an open violation of the law, he though, so be- lieving perhaps that he would put him- self in right with the game warden by telling him of it he hastened to Mr. Clark and informed him of his find. The result was that Mr. Clark lost no time in arousing his deputies and with a small posse he scoured the woods near the supposed trap. For several days they kept an eye on the place in the hope of catching the owners of the trap, and there was much undo wor- ry and work in the camp of Clark. When at last the game rotectors had lost all patience and were about to give it up as a bad job one of the old set- tlers of the district happened by and quietly informed Mr. Clark that the traps were left by a certain Mr, Marks of North Haven and they were no less than five years old. Marks had some calves up in that sectlon about that time. The animals went wild and when Mr. Marks wanied to move he found he would have difficulty in Inducing his calves to come ajong with him. He hit upon the plan of laying traps to catch them, and it was these traps that Game ‘Warden Clark and Deputy Sheriff Uhl found which caused all tne excitement, “rhank are your brothers, Baron?” you, three are married, but alined”—Simplicissimus. the. sall | Indioated by isements - BUILDING BOOM Arrival of Much Lumber g at Bridgeport. Six schooners, all lumber laden, ar- rived in Bridgeport Sunday afternoon within a few hours of each other, they bringing the largest amount of lum- ber into the city ever received on a single day, says The Telegram. In- deed, the total amount of lumber on these boats is more than has been re- ceived in the city during the past six months. One of these boats was eight weeks making the trip here, while others were _only a compara- tively short time, but all were caught in the recent storms and suffered “thereby. There are 10 or 12 more boats expected here with lumber with- in the next few weeks or the first of the year so that Bridgeport will surely have on January 1 the largest supply of lumber in the city in its entire his- tory. These boats were consigned to dif- ferent lumber dealers and the local tugs were kept busy in getting them around to the different docks, the work keeping them busy until long after dark. “Young man, do you think you can support my daughter in the way she has been aeécustomed?” “Before or since?” “Before or since what?” “Be- fore or since the panic.”—Judge. l Foley's Orino Laxative is best for women and children.
