FAIR, WARMER, TODAY. SUNDAY FAIR. WHAT IS GOING ON TONIGHT Moving Pictures ai the Breed The- aier. w, Vaudeville and Motion Pictures at Auditorium. R The Girl of the Golden West at Poli's Theater. g 23 Norwich_Council, No. 307, U. C. T, meets in Pythian Hall. ANNOUNCEMENTS Frank A. Bill has the exclusive sale of Patrician shoes, a woman's shoe that's right. See the new fall and winter styles, $3,0 2nd $4. Snappy boots for street or dress, LABOR DAY AT THE AUDITORIUM. vaudeville The specially arranged programme for the first half of next week, beginning on Labor day, will be headed by the Millar Musical Trio of reknowned instrumentalists, who pre- sent a comedy musical turn in black and’ white, but do not let the comedy enter into the act enough to interfere with the rendering of the different musical numbers, all of which are ren- a in & most pleasing manner. A clever young comedian and dancer, is Harry Bestry. who is presenting his act 1so on this banner bill. Harry makes a neat, clean cut appearance and hand- les his different dancing numbers in his own original way, which is.sure to please all. Savoy, Varo, and Sack, two Chinamen and their dog, will intro- | duce a very funny knockabout act en- titled Fum in a Chinese Laundry, which keep the laughs coming fast ana furious during the entire time they are behind the footlights. The . new, bright and clear motion pictures which are being shown at the Auditorium this season ,are causing much favorable comment. BREED THEATER. The Mfhute Man of Lexington. one | of the most brilliant and important his- | torical pictures ever made, the great traction at the Breed today, and at | h of vesterday’s performances the | crowds were S0 great that many wera | unable to get in, and were compelled | to attend the evening performance,then being obliged to wait for the second exhibition. Every scene in the great Edison production is absolutely correct, | being taken on the identical spots in Concord and Lexingion where the inci- dents occurred, and upon the same day of April. The atmosphere is therefore correct in every detail, the immense wealth of zenuine antiques utilized in | furnishine the homes being the admi- ! ation of all. The great struggle at Con- eord bridge, where the famous retreat of the British occurred, is produced with the utmost fidelity, and the attack em Lexington Green, where the Min- nte Men were assembled, is one of the most impressive sights ever witnessed. The culminating scenes are of great glory, and fromn the ride of Paul Re- vere to the defeat of the British there i# not a dull moment, many of the his- torical landmarks being introduced as giving locale to the picture. The balance of the bill is too good to enumerats and must be secn to be ap- preclated, and includes a western and & Blegraph picture, the equal of which has not been seen this season. AT POLI'S THEATER. The Girl of the Golden West. The second season of the Poli Players epens ‘tonight with a production of Pavid Belasco's great western drama, The Girl of the Golden West. This play is.ape that is unique in many ways. Fipst, it is the highest priced royailty play in stock today and oné upen which there is no reduction. | no ter how large or how small the eity in which it is produced. Tt is also | suresfire succe: tremendous busi- Bess always resulting when it is pre- serited. It enjoys the unique distinc- tlon of being the first American drama that was ever made into an opera, Henry W. Savage being about to pro- duce it the coming season. In making the production it necessary for a stock company to be enlarged by the addition of a large number of actor: and these men are called upon to pl -haracters that require exceptional ability. Ordinary players cannot Al the requirements and in some of the cases it is necessary to pay much | higher than the regular members of the company receive in order to get competent men. This brings the cost of production up to such a figure that only a tremendous business can repay the management for the undertaking. The story is tense. powerful and startlingly human, ‘builded on a theme of wonderful depth and breadth. The scenes are laid in a locality and period that make it one of the most pictur- esque dramas ever given to the stage— California in the days of the gold feves in 1849 and 1850. The production that Bas been made by the local company is one of the prettiest and most compiete is ever shown on the local stage. Tt is brand new in every det having been built. painted and constructed on the | stage of the theater in which it will be shown. Of the new company the manage- ment claims and e s much. Tt has been zathered with extreme care and nothing has been allowed to stand in the way of anything that was need- ed to contribute to ite success. It is headed by Eliwood F. Bostwick, lead- ing man, and Florence A. Pinckney. leadipg woman, with the stage and production under the joint personal supervision of Carroll Daly and Mr. Bostwick. But one performance will be given tod the curtain rising at 8 o'clock sharp. The play will continue all next week, with a special matinee Labor day and the regular matinees on Tues- day, Thursday and Saturday. On Thursday afternoon and night each persen ajtending will receive as a souvenir a complete novel of the play “Alfas Jimmy Valentine,” which will be presented for the second week of the company’'s season, heginning Mon- day, Sept. 11. Reserved seats are al- ways en' sale one week in advance THE CONNECTICUT FAIR. A very good suggestion of the vast | range of interests covered by the Con- | necticut fair next week and of the im- portance laid upon cach department by | its followers is to be found in the prep- arations now being made for the cat show, which, as formerly. will be one of the big departments of the fair, and, as in other yvears, will open on Wed- nesday of fair week. Feor, just as there are horsemen who will spend every ménute of their spare time sitting around a stable talking horse, and then plan for weeks ahead to attend every race in the vicinity; and just as there are cattle men who will tell yvou with vast gusto the pedi- gree of every blooded cow in the Unit- ed States, so are there cat fanciers who make a whole livelihood from the rais- ing, showing and selling of prize cats. Among the notable cats which will be seen at the Connecticut fair will be sevyral Australians, a very rare oreed in this country. which will be shown by Mrs. J. C. Mitcheison of Tariffville, © has undoubtedly the best speci- us of this kind. dther prize winners will be Cham- pion Shiraz. the best blue Persian in Amerfca. Another famous cat of this breed which, like that named, is owned by M P. McCoun of Oyster Bay, N. Y, one called Golden-Eyed Wis- e specially fine animals will also p by Mrs. D. Connolly of L.
