AT POLI'S, Charley’s Aunt. A bill which proves most pleasing this week at Poll’s is the farce Char- ley's Aunt, which is capitally presented by the Poll Players. The three acts of this laugh provoking play are all cleverly staged and the players are most agreeably cast. There is no end of fun throughout the many peculiar situations and their result keeping the audience interested and wzll enter- tained. Wilson D. Stedman plays Lord Fan- court Babberly and gets roped into impersonating Charley’s aunt, a role which he finds large opportunities in and makes the most of them. As Charley, Clyde M. Shropshire does well, while Lawrence Dunbar as Jack Chesney is, as ever, clever and enter- taining. J. N. Booth and Farrall Mc- Knight have pleasing roles and as Col. Chesney and Stephen Spattigue they make ardent love to Charley’s aunt. The latter is particularly clever in his persistent _courtship. Emma Hayden as the real aunt gives a fine presentation of the part and helps out in the funmaking by assist- ing in the embarrassment of the malke- believe aunt. Victoria Montgomery as Amy and Sue Fisher as Kitty were very good, as was Virginia Chauvenet, the other members of the cast giving the proper support to make the play a success. The audience was kept in laughter from start to finish and teok occasion to manifest their pleasure by much applause. There are interesting moving picturas which fill up the waits between the acts.

A special meeting of the McAll aux iliary in memory of the late presi- dent, Miss Mary L. Huntington, was held’ Tuesday afternoon at the Hunt- ington home on Broadway, where so many meetings. of the society have been held in the past, and which still seemed fllled with the brave, sweet spirit of the departed mistress. As the first vice president, Miss Sturtevant was unable to be present, Mrs. Will- iam Carr of Poquonoc, formerly of Norwich and still an officer in the auxiliary, conducted the beautiful and impressive service. After a few ap- propriate and sincere words of tribute by Mrs. Carr, a beautiful Scripture passage was read by Mrs. Howe, fol- lowed by prayer by Mrs. Carr. Let- ters of sympathy and of a sense of ‘personal loss from five of the officers of the national association were read by the secretary and treasurer. These came both as personal tributes and in an official capacity representing the whole association. Several members of the auxiliary were called upon and spoke lovingly of Miss Huntington words which were in the thoughts of #ll the others, They dwelt upon her quiet and retiring nature and yet un- flinching acceptatice of any necessary duty, of her worth as a genial nelgh- bor and friend, of her kindliness of heart and éxquisite gentleness of man- ner which made her an ideal and in- spirfation to the young, of her fillial devotion which first enlisted her in the cause of the McAll mission, and which, after her mother's death, caused her to make the work her own and be equally interested in its success, ‘and of her mental acumen and grasp of the work and the pleasure it was to be associated With her in it. Her favor- ite hymn, O God, Our Help In Ages Past, was read by Mrs. Howe. A nom- inating committes was appointed to obtain some one te carry on the work which she has laid down. Notice was also given of the annual meeting of the American association, to be held in Troy, N. Y. next month, and five delegates appointed to represent the auxiliary there. These delegates were gliven the liberty of obtaining substi- tutes. GOING TO DETROIT. William H. Freeman and Wife Leave T Morning fer the Middle West. Mr. and Mrs William H.
