ACADEMY SENIORS PRESENT THE RIVALS Gaye a Most Commendable Presenta- tion at Slater Hall—Large Attend- ance and Hearty Applause. With Slater Hall well filled Satur- day evening, the Academy seniors gate a most commendable presenta- tion of The Rivals by Richard B. Sher- idan, which called forth constant ap- plause, as each member of the cast made the most of his lines and brought out the fine points of the comedy. The play is in five acts with twelve acenes, all of which were admirably staged with interesting and attractive settings, the many changes of scen- ery having been painted by members OF the Norwich At school. | The many Scenes made changes many and fre- duent, but all were accomplished in good ‘time and with excellent results, #0 as to bring forth applause for the excellent selection of stage properties. The costumes were in accordance wi the times, the play dealing with 1775, characters at Bath, Englend. Each of the twelve participants was admirably chosen for the role taken and in every instance they are to be ‘commended for the very, commendable manner {n which the characters were portrayed. Whether it was the gruff and irascible Sir Anthony, the persist~ ent and.clever Captain Jack, the nerv- ous and irritable Faulkland, or ‘the lively and boastfil Bob Acres, those who assumed the roles were equal to the occasion at all times, whils the Sir Lucius, always looking for fun or trouble, and the servants of the Cap- tain and Bob were likewise meritori- ous n their work. The self centered and conceited Mra, Malaprop was a_role which created much Iaughter, while the conception of | & the part of Lydia Languish was grace= fully and prettily done, as was that of Julia. The roles of the two maids had clever impersonators and all were giv- en recognition for their clever work in the form of handsome bouquets of car- nations and roses. ‘The characters and those who took them were as' follows: Sir Anthony Absoluté, Willlam E. Per: ptain Jack Absolute, his som, George H. Schellens; Faulkland,* in love with Julia, Roger W, Champion; Bob Acres, of Clod Hall, Earl Loudon; Sir Luclus O'Trigger, an Irish gentleman, Lowell R. Stark; Fag, servant to Captain Ab- solute, Orrin Hertz; David, servant to Bob Acres, James P. Timmins; Thom- as, coachman to Sir Anthony, James P.'Timmins; Mrs. Malaprop, Lois Per: kins; Lydia Languish, her niece, Leora C. Mitchell; Julla Melville, cousin of Lydia, Mary R. Gibbs; Lucy, Lydia's mald,” Almira G. Frink; Mrs. prop's maid, Mae Shields. The stage committee included Eugene L. Schellens, chairman, hard M. Bracewell, Bertram B. Bailey, Thomas ‘Wheeler, James P. Murray, John F. Corcoran, and the play was produced under the supervision of Miss Eunice H. Gulliver and Merwyn L. Aultman. During the evening the Academy Musical club gave a number of pleas= ing selections and violin sSolos were given 'by Misss Elizabeth Lane and Wentworth B, Prentice.

Corkery of the water de~ partment has made arrangements with the state chemist, J. A. Newlands, 80 that he can have two examinations a month of any water he may send to the state laboratory for analysis. He has received the cases and bottles for sending the same and will make use of the_privilege. He has also had men at work clear- ing up about the banks of Mohegan lake, o that they present a much bet- ter ‘appearance. The water there is gaining with each rain and is clear and good. It is not intended to nse it un- less emergency should require it, but it is intended to have it ready if wanted. A letter has been recsived from the Roberts Filter company stating that the two large filters were shipped on March 18 from the factory at Darby, Pa., as required in the contract, and they are expected here this week, al- though several raflroad changes may require longer time. All the necessary fittings for the setting up of the filters have been ordered so_that there will be no delay in getting them into use. The roadway to the pumping station across the fields is in first class condition, be- ing graded and vastly superior to the way over which the electrical machin- ery had to b2 taken.
