TRY THAT Smm Plccalene fob25d AT BROADWAY THEATER. “The Yankee Prince.” Musical comedy has been seen here so little of late that it caused no won der to find the Broadway theater prac- tically filled i timely satire on titled fortune hunters. There were many capable people in the «cast, but Tom Lewis, the man with little to say but always to the’point, waas the star attraction and he got full Tecognition. This play follows closely on the lines of “Little Johnmy many of the characters being but there is plenty of life, good music and really someching about which all the ado revolves. It is the case of the rich American marrying off his daugh- ter to @ title which another clever young American circumvents and wins the girl. Tom Lewis as Steve Daly is in a class by himself and his work was ex- cellent. His appearance was the cause for a burst of applause, and he was the magnet from then on. Jack Raffaél as Fielding was_very good, while Lola Hoffman as Mrs. Fielding delighted. Lila Rhodes as Evelyn Fielding, the girl in the story, is a clever dancer and ‘singer, for both’ of which qualities she won hearty recognition as well as for her acting. Charles King as the Amer- joan young man with money but no title was well cast, and in his ddnce with Miss Rhodes executed a clever feature. Sherman Wade as the Irish- American politician was a typical New Yorker, in which role he was decided- 1y good, while Mildred Elaine created a most favorable impression in her role. {ifying remedies, She sang with good expression, and the with P. B. Pratt, illains in the Play,” was one of the cleverest of the evening. The Ear} was well played by Frank Haollins. ‘There was a large and -tuneful cho- Tus, and the songs were all heartily re- ceived, although not as many encores as desired were given. “I'm to Mary a Nobleman,” as sung by Miss Rhodes and ehorus, received long and loud ap- p: , ‘while the coster boys and girls in the song “I Say Flo” were hea.rtlly *nealved. “A Song of the King,” sung by R.

C. E. HEWITT MARRIED FIFTY YEARS. No Formal Celebration of the Event, but There Were Many Callers. Mr. and Mrs, Charles Edwin Hewitt of North Stonffigton reached the 50th anniversary of their marriage on Tues- day, February 22. Nothing in the way of a formal celebration of the event was attempted by the family: but sev- eral friends, who had borne in mind the date. dropped in during the after- noon and evening, to pay their. re- spects - to the fifty years’ bride and groom, among the. callers being the Rev. and Mrs. F. M, Hollister, the pastor and wife of the Congregationai church, of which Mr,.and Mrs. Hewitt are prominent members, also Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Hillard of Westerly. Light refreshments were served. Previous to her marriage Mrs. Hew- itt was Miss Eliza A. Hillard.. In his happy choice of a life companion, Mr. Hewit gave heed to the scriptural in- junction to love his niighbor as him- self, the home of Miss Hillard -being scarcely more than a skilful stone’s throw from his own, to which, upon their marriage, he brought her. With the exceptiocn of nine years during which they resided in Mount Vernon, N. Y., this house, known locally as the Hewitt inn, Has ever since been their home, Msny a wayfarer has hailed with pleasure the grateful shade of its maples, and found within its doors comfort and good cheer. Five daughters—Mary, Jennie, Kate, Margaret. and Edna—were born to Mr. and Mrs. Hewitt. Mary and Kate have been dead for a number of years, Jennie is now Mrs. Frank E. Bentley, and resides in Pelham, N. Y. Marga- ret is the wife of the Rev, Jonathan G. Smith of Tomas, Wis. Edna is the wife of Postmaster George W. Tryon of North Stonington, and she is well known as the librarian of the Wheeler library. There are thre grandsons, the children of Mrs. Bentley. Mr._and Mrs.-Hewitt have an exten- sive acquaintances ‘'who unite in hearty congratulations and the best of all good wishes. Societies to Be Aided.

He spoke from an intimate ac- quaintance with his subject, as he was' in Constantinople at the time of Adana massacres and of the promulgation of the constitution on July 24th, 1908. ‘This, he declared, marked an era which will be as worthy of commem- oration in that country as is the Dec- laration of Independence, July 4, 1776. In detail Dr. Huntington told of the various causes which led to the abol- ishment of the despotism of Abdul Hamid, and how this was accomplish— ed by the progressive Young Turks. In c(vnch.l!ion, Rev. Dr. Huntington said: ‘ou ask me what has been the final reSult of this last effort of despot- ism to overthrow liberty in Turkey? And what are. the prospects of the lib- eral government? 1 think those best acquainted with the situation unanimous in believing that these pros- pects are brighter than at any previous time. The reactionaries are impressed with the danger of treason. It was a sruesome sight and contrary to gur western ideas of what is for the public good when those traitors were gibbeted upon the streets of Constantinople. But this is an old’ practice in the Ori- ent, and the Young Turks thought they must frighten their enemies. They certainly were lenient enough with the chiet traitor, Abdul Hamid, in keeping him prisoner In a palace at Salonica. “Phe’ Turkish parliament, on which. humanly speaking, the future chiefly depends, has a vast and complicated task before it. Where almost every public interest has been neglected for | centuries, what must be relurmeul first the assembly of 200 was in European citizens’ dress. All the men had kind, intelligent, attractive faces. They are no dullards and their faces express dignity and thought. Their handling of this work of legislation, so new to them, was a lesson to us Americans about the greatness of our familiar privileges. “If you ask what has parliament ac- tually deone, what important measures they have adopted, 1 ask you to re- member that necessarily in their con- dition, long, patient study of questions must precede action. The had to spend much time discussing the mas- sacpes which Abdul Hamld excited in Adana. They have debated the ques- tion of needful limitations of a free press. They have been compelled to spend much time,over their relations with Bulguria, Austria and Greece. They have had to study measures for restoring order in ithe Baghdad coun- try. They have adopted a law as to vagabonds, men who have come to Sonstantinople fancying that under - erty they can get money without work. They have done some things towards improving the roads of th eempire. They have sent 200 young men to schools in Europe and a few girls to the American college at Scutari. And the great primary questions of public finance and development of the national . resources have received marked attention. Americans do fer n realize that their or failure ,is our own affair, for of all the causes which have pro- duced a new Tnarke no other is so potent as the silent persuasive influ- | ences of American Christian mission- ‘We can believe In them, for whatever the faults of the different na- tionalities they have fine characteris- tics, adapted to make a noble nation.
