AT POLI'S THEATER. Alias Jimmy Valentine. The new season of the Poli Players is now a week old and the public has had an opportunity to form their own opinion regarding the scove of the management’s plans for the coming season. There are necessarily many drawbacks and disappointments in getting evervthing started and in the hustle necessary to prepare an organ- ization for an opening, and naturally the point aimed for has not yet been reached, but the opening production furnishes an illustration of what can be expected when everything is per- fected. e For the second week, beginning Monday night, the stock company W present what the management confl dently expects will be one of the most pleasing and satisfyving sto:k produ tions vet made in this The play selected to clineh the good opinion the people already have of the company is Allas Jimmy Valentine, one of the very best attractions within the reach of a stock company at the present time. It | is ome of the latest successes that has been released for stock—in fact, it has not vet been released in many parts of the country It till on tour in the largest cifles, playing at the high- est prices, so that local people are get- { ting an attraction at from 10 to v.il‘- e°nts that other cities in the country | are at the same time paying a much higher scale of prices. Alias Jimmy Valentine is by Armstrong and was s gested by | short story written by the late O. Heanry It is a detective play of the most up-to-date Kind and p a| pleture of a reformed thief that is not | only clever and igteresting but uplift- ing as well. Mr. Bostwick will play the title role. a part in whi¢h he h already made a pronounced hit. It said to be one of his best characteriza- | tions Pinckney will have the leading feminine role. with Miss Locke and M ’ in"the other female ¢ s Flora Dorset will make her initi ppearance with the company The balance of the company will be the same as in the opening bill. Little Eileen a Norwich girl rle in the play, shown promise of hits of the show. 3 will given on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, at which time the entire lower floor is reserved. and tickets may be secured for any scat one week in advance. AT THE AUDITORIUM, making one ol M interesting and his- torically instructive motion victure has been secured for the children to see| today, entitled The Last of the Mo- hicans. and the picture is acted by a very capahle stock company, following closely the story of the book by that same me. Th= original Uncas, of | whom so much is known in this par- ticular locality, is portrayed in a most fascinating manner by Francis Powers, the leading man of the Powers com- An especially pany. This picture should be espe- clally interesting to the people of the efty of Norwich. Mack & Worth. presenting The Secotchman and the Yankee Girl, an act | which vs entertai will’ be on Wondas's hill with zi Leighton, eomedienne. and Kelso & T.eighton, merobatic dancers. Wednesday of next week the socond of the Mutt and Jeff tatking photo-far pietures will be shown LYCEUM THEATER. and public have united in zing the praises of The Fortune | Hunter, which will be presented at the Lyceum theater, New London, next night. Tt work of praise only stipple- ments that marked ey every man, woman and child who has w sed Winchell Smith's delightful co money hunting. The first minister en- roiled in the army of patron boosters for this wholesom: play was the Rev. Percival Howson Barker. pastor of the First Congregational church in Bay- wood, onc of Chicage’'s select suburbs. Dr. Barker, after secing a performance of The Fortune Hunter, in his sermon maid “This clever comedy is a terpreter of the heart and much to the enjovment and worth fe.” Parker H. Sercomb in a lecture delivered at Ki all hall, in Chicago, to a select audience, declared that the gospel of work taught in The Fortine Hunter, if followed by our wealth young men. would prove a boon to t e mation. With all the good sense and sound logic, the play is full of humor and is dotfed almost continuously by outbursts of laughter and when the curtain falls everyone regrets that the Hime of the p cannot be prolonged. BREED THEATER. The brilliant story of The Colonel's Son, now the picture at the Breed, is interesting and d-lighting the large audier that are witnessing it, and, beeause of the strong human plot, appeals to all. The where the coionel discovers his on and is air sentenced shot is made mor mat father refus to interfere anxious, however, prove himself a man at the la secretly tells him that the builets the executing guns have been drawn. The young fellow, believing this, walks to his death in brave i all th the soldier, in spite of his conviction. Another beautiful story of the war is entitled The Tale of a Soldier's Ring and has some unusually strong dra- martic scenes and is embellishad with some . exqguisitely beautiful scenery hackgrounds. Miss Laws wins mueh applause the stirring topical song We Al and also with the pretty song of ¢ hood entitled Child 7 Once in Fiftesn Years. Thirty-five years—think of it, thirty- five vears agof when L. & M. Paint was first made known. It then needed time to prove durable quality. Tt has done it now, and its large use ‘« the proof.

The Chinese themsslwes have not taken kindly te foreign pianos, and whatever demand for pfanos may exist at Canton among the foreign popula- tion is supplied through dealers in Hong Kong. The same remark ap- plies equally to violins and other for- eign stringed instruments.

One change has been the Imposition of & duty upon wines and liquors coming into the col- ony—the only import duty lswied at present.
