The Poli Players appear to an exceptional advantage in this powerful ‘drama and the capable manneér in which it is pre- sented, the handsome costumes and new scenery are winning considerable |° praise from the patrons. For next week the company is already at work preparing Charley’'s Aunt, which is sure to be the laughing hit of the sea- son. This is a comeady. that never fails and as laughter seems to be a ‘weakness with Nerwich audiences it should be a banner week all around. ' Mr. Stedman will have the role of tlie young college chap who disguises as Charley's Aunt from Brazil, a part he has played many times before, and there is no question that he will be a hit. Reserved seats are aiready on sale. BREED THEATER. The Heart of a Savage is interesting and thrilling the countless numbers who are attending the Breed this week, not alome on account of its magnificent scenery, but also because of the faultless acting and splendid plot. The scenes are'laid on Mt. Look- out, a peak on the Santa Mofflica mountains in California,. thus giving the action a subliminal setting, en- hancing the gorgeously savage cos- tumes, and lending an atmosphere to be obtained in no other manner. No pains have been spared to make this fillm a masterpiece, and the patrons are universal in the opinion that. it is one of the best of the season. At the White Man’s Door is another Indian story dealing with frontier life and showing thrilling scenes, while the screaming comedy entitled - The Ransom of Red Chief, is equally amus- ing to both young and old, although dealing wholly with an uncontrollable youngster. Miss Browne sings the fetching song, “It's nice to be nice to a nice young girl.” LETTERS T0-THE EDITOR, And Solluted. Mr. Editor: The pastor suui truatees of the A. M. E.

Tax Commi Ruling Ag; An interesting epistolatory battle has been going on for some weeks between' Tax Commissioner William H. Corbin and the publisher of the Fishing Magazine, which has gained publicity through the columns of the magazine. The dispute arose through the state- ment made by Mr. Corbin before the shellfish commission and the commis- sion on equalization of taxation that Connecticut was the only state which leased oyster grounds in perpetuity. The editor of the Fishing Magazine, in reviewing the statement of Mr. Corbin in its columns, said he was grossly mistaken in the premises, and that the state of Newr York leased oyster grounds in perpetuity. Mr. Corbin procured a letter from Deputy Supt of Marine Fisherles Charles S. Dixon of New York, say- ing that New York state has discon- tinued leasing oyster lands in perpetu- ity, but Suffolk county does so lease its oyster grounds. The letter reads as follows: Sir: Replying to vour favor ‘of the 3d inst, I beg to inform yeu that the state of New York no longer grants perpetual rights of ownership to any. ground for the purpose of oyster cul- tivation. All grants in the state under state control are held under lease. Many years ago the state granted franchises in perpetuity, but this was discontinued many years ago. Very truly yours, CLINTON S, DIXON, Deputy Superintendent of Marine Fisheries. New York, March 8, 1911. Mr. Corbin submitted the letter to the Fishing Magasine; which published it and under date of March 20, he sent the following letter: My Dear Sir: Please accept my thanks for your courtesy giving pub- lcity to the correspondence relative to the granting of franchises in perpetu- ity by New York state. Your editorial comment appears to miss the point of the discussion, and that is that in our repert it was stat- ¢d that Connecticut is the only state which grants perpetual franchises of ground for the purpose of oyster cul- tivation. The inference from your previoug editorial was that New York state grants perpetual franchises in the same manner as Connecticut. ‘While it i not to be disputed that the county of Suffolk grants such rights, the state of New York does not -do so, and the fact remains that Connecticut appears to be the only state which grants such special privi- leges. - 1 appreciate your evident intention to_give a fair statement of the matter: Yours very truly, WM.
