With a smoothness that was grati fying to the management and distinc ly pleasing to two big houses, the Da- vis theater opened on Monday with a programme that gave Norwich people a splendld impression of what is to be offered at the Broadway playhouse this season by the new lessee, Walter 8. Davis of Pawtucket. The photo- plays and the vaudeville acts meas- ured fully up te the highest standards that Norwich has seen in recent years and the improvements that have been made at the theater during the past week also received their share of fa- vorable attention from the first day audiences. Ten numbers comprised the enter- tainment programme, and the audi- ences were kept interested all. the time with the variety of the pictures and the excellent vaundeville acts. Among the photoplays the Sands of Dee stood out as one of the most dra- matic and realistic, while A Day Off was an Intensely funny productioa that counterbalanced the more seri- ous films. Local Manager Charles E. Pelton contributed one of the hits by his dramatic lecture in connection with the extra feature photoplay, The Drunkards’ Reformation, and he re- ceived great applause and a number of eurtain calls, Those Three Girls made a charming appearance In their singing "ect with character changes, and their work went far above the av- erage of the usual offerings, The Ethi- opean Feur, colored comedy quartette, drew forth unstinted applause and laughter by their witty dialogue, sing- ing and dancing specialties, while gome unusual musieal effects were produced with various articles by Mons. Her- bert.

In spite of the humidity the ventilating system wm;kudufonc ul‘ell.l and ll:ern were cur- rents cool alr passing constantly through the house, Manager Davis considering this superlor to fans, An- other ture new to Norwich thea- tergoers is the green light system in- troduded by Manager Davis, giving a so-called moonlight effect, which while It does not interfere with the plctures, enables the programmes to be read at all times by the people.

Geer, plano, of this city. are among those playing. For the big shows, the first of whieh, Alma, Where Do You Live? comes August 30, the orchestra will be in- creased from four to eight or nine pieces. Manager Davis and his the- ater staff were well satisfied with the reception accorded them on thelr opening day and the great majority of the people who went to the thea- ter seemed to be pleased with what they found there.

About 1 o'clock Monday afternoon a load of hay from Baltic for a local store dumped over in front of the boarding house and for a few mo- ments Front street was the scene of considerable excitement. The hay was owned by a farmer who resides on Pautipaug hill in Baltic, and who with his hired man was on his way to de- liver it. They stopped at the scales near the store and after weighing the hay enlisted the services of two boys, Theodore Roy and Harry Hannan, to ! show them the way to the barn. As they started off the sales, the light | wagon struck a pole and the impact started the load rocking. The driver | kept on and when in front of the boarding house the load suddenly tip- per over on to the ground, carryir. with it the wagon and all four who were seated on top of the hay. The driver held on to.the horses thus pre- venting a runawa; In a few seconds a large crowd of spectators were on hand to see what had happened and many of them assisted in righting the wagon and reloading the hay. The two boys and John Casey, the hired man, escapeg injury, but the owner of the outfit spralned his ankle quite badly. The wagon was uninjured and after considerable delay the hay was stored safely in the barn for which it was intended. . tended the Wheel club bake Sunday at the Drawbridge. ville, and now of New Bedford, is in town calling on old friends.
