Speaking the iniversal language of the heart and reflecting like @ mirror, the innermost emotions of the mind, Stetson’s “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” is more than & stage play—it is a wonderful moral classic. It argues for the two really great theme that can engage the mind of man—human liberty and the ifmmortality of the soul. It is a play that has long been a popular fa- verite with the infrequent theatre goers and regular patrons alike, and wheresoever the Stetson company ap- pears, it is greeted with a crowded house. There is just enough pathos during the performance to show that life is not all sunshine and then comes floods of laughter which bring one away from sorrows pall. Specialties are intersparsed throughout the major number of scenes, so that the lover of high-class vaudeville is well repaid for his time and money by attending the Stetson’s show, which will be seen at the Broadway theatre on April 4th, matinee and night. = BREED THEATRE. “In Oid California,” Thrilling Romance of the West. In _the superb romance of the Span= ish Dominion by the Biograph com- pany, entitled In Old California, the Breed theatre has a genuine novelty. A pretty Spanish senorita, is beloved by a wealthy young Spaniard, also by @ handsome treubadour of the viilage. The young troubadour’s musical talent wins her, and she marrieg _him, and twenty vears later, finds the home with a grown up son, and conditions in a wretched state. She appeals to her former lover, now Governor, to take their son and make a soldier of him. Out of former love for her, he accepts the task, but the blood of the father shows up, and he is presented several time for misdemeanors. The poor mether; dying in squalor, begs the ivilege of seeing ther son , be- leving him to be a hero, and the Gov- ernor ts him to return to her under guard, and decorates him with medals to substantiate her belief. She | is overjoyed at seeing him, and the excitement proves too much for her weakened cendition, and she expires, whereupon the medals are snatched from to the culprit son, and he is given just punishment. The closing scene between the dead mother and her former lover, is one of the best pieces of acting in the whole reel, and the picture is a pronounced success. Two other big western pictures are on the programme, and an excellent educa- | tional flm. Mr. Ray is heard in a new selec- | tion entftied Angel Eyes, which is a distinct song-novelty.

Permanent members of the Meriden fire department will ask the fire com- missioners for longer vacations. They are anxious to get three days off duty each month and ten days on a stretch in the summer. A petition is being circulated and will be sent to the board Thursday night. At present the fire fighters are al- lowed two days a month and one week for their summer rest. They are, of course, paid when off vacations, It is believed that the request will be granted. In other cities more time off is given the firemen, and more salary, too.—Meriden Record.
