One of the features on the program at the eed today is the superb week- Iy chronicle of important events in two worlds shown in the great and only Pathe Weekly, No. 23. One of the in- teresting scenes recorded on this film is the caravan of the Imperial Council of the Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mpystic Shrine at the Oasis of Dallas in the Texas desert, but the balance of the happenings are equally interesting. A beautiful scenic Edison offering is the drama of An Accidental Alibi, and The Golden Wedding is its one big rival. In the Days of Witch- oraft, Selig, The King and the Cop- per, and A Rainy Day, Biograph, are the other features on the bill. DAVIS THEATRE. Big Quality Show Today. The bill which closes today at this tosy family theatre, is one that will lease everyone. Four acts of vaude- ille with quality and quantity com- ined make up this excellent bill. The leven Harmonizing Kids do a pleas- school act with lots of good sing- g and dancing and plenty of comedy to balance with it. Collins and Cole, who got here on Monday evening, have made a big hit with their comedy talk and singing. They have an act that keeps the house in roars all the time they are on. Margaret Clayton does a cartoon act telling funny storie and singing songs all the while she draws her pictures and this is the only lady on the vaudeville stage (Ud‘l\ doing such an act. Her funn toons have made a big hit ev: formance. The Boldens as entertain- ers are hard to beat. They do a glomeration of acrobatic stunts sing- ing.. dancing and comedy, with a gin- ger that leaves no room for a dull moment. The feature photoplay is a political drama in two reels entitled The Big Boss and deals with politics and graft, showing how a bright young veporter fooled the Big Boss. The pther photoplays are very pleasing and clude western, comedy and educa- onal pictures. Another quality show booked for the last half which will phold the Davis standard. AQ the Auditorium. The change from vaudeville to mu- ilcal comedy at tRe Auditorium last Mfonday met with great success and the opening company, The Girlie Girls, bas been drawing big houses from the start. It is a light, airy show, full of life and ginger, pretty girls nf’aLI_\' costumed, funny comedians and catchy music. There are two complete changes of scenery and several cosium changes and altogether the show i winner. Four reels of excellent blac Among them is a two reel western teature and two good comedies. For Thureday, Friday and Sat- urday another musical comedy has been booked. It is entitled The Bell Hops, and is composed of pretty girls, funny male comedians, etc., and prom- tses to be full of life, music and song. Groton Long Point. With the approach of summer, peo- ple naturally. begin to think of shore properties, and this season hundreds of them .are thinking of Groton Long Point. While this great property is Jjust starting on its third vear, siill it has become immensely popuiar and can rival many of the older beaches. At the present time it is undoubtedly the widest and best known of the shore colonies. The Point lies six miles east of New London ‘and comprises something over 400 acres. It projects out into the Sound one and one-quarter miles and has three miles of water frontage. The trolley from New London to Westerly passes the entrance and has a station on the property. The company has constructed nearly five miles of pri- vate winding roads at a cost of over 210,000 and has spent over $40,000 on general improvements. The largest and finest board walk in the state, be- ing one-haif mile long and ten feet ‘wide, stretches along the perfect san- dy bathing beach on the west shore. The Jas. Jay Smith Co. of New London, who have been in business since 1879 and who so successfully de- veloped Saybrooke manor beach at Saybrooke, Conn., have charge of this development. STONINGTON Burglars Enter Muller’s Store, But Get Nothing—Pledges of $132 Toward Band Concerts—Three Weeks’ Old Goose Weighs Over Three Pounds. When Charles E. Davis opened up the furniture store of Henry A. Muller, where he is employed, Tuesday morn ing, he discovered a back window in the office broken and the back door open. A large hammer upon the floor showed ‘how burglars had entered the store during the night. They had broken the combination off the safe and had tried to drill holes in the cor- ner of the safe door, but were unsuc- | cessful. No money was in the safe, but about one dollar in change was in the cash drawer and was untouched, having been overlooked by the burglars, Officer Thomas O'Connell heard a noise near Mr. Muller’s building be- tween 12 and 1 o'clock Monday night, Emt was unable to find anyone. $132 Pledged Toward Band Concerts. Henry A. Tuller, treasurer of the band concert committee, has $132 pledged. Three hundred dollars is necassury for the entire season, and it ;‘ hoped the balance will be pledged this week. The first band concert will | be held.Friday, July 11, on Wadawan- uck park. Three Candidates Confirmed. Rt. Rev. C. B. Brewster, bishop of Connecticut, was at Calvary church Sunday and conducted the morning services. The rite of confirmation was administered to three persons. | Borough Interests.

I, who kave been the George Taylor, who has been in New Haven, is at his borough home for a brief stay. Hefty Goose. Charles T. Willard has. in his coops an assortment of fowl hatched during the spring which are showing remark- able growth. In one of the pens are four geese hatched on the 10th of May, one of which at the age of three weeks weighed three pounds, two ounces, which is considered by fanciers to be a record bird. Oil Tank for Ferryboat. Warden C. B. Crandall has placed under ground the large iron tank which is to be used as a gasoline reservoir for a supply for the ferryboat Watch Hill. The tank holds 1.000 gallons and is placed just under the land level with a wood covering. The location ig/ on the right of way to the Watch Hill wharf, west of Water street. A Forward Garden. One of the finest gardens in this locality is that worked by C. O. Brown- ing at the Matthews lot on Elm street and Railrcad avenue. Peas are in bloom, lettuce is in condition for use, rareripes are ready for market and radishes readv for table -use. The Westerly Fishing company has taken up one of the large pound seines off Point Judith for the season. The steamer James M. Gifford has brought in the nets and they have been placed on the Stanton lot on the Mystic road. They have been spread for drying be- fore being stored until another sea- son. A construction company of New London has completed the work of re- | moving the old Swan house across Elm street and has placed it upon the stone foundation constructed by the owner, Clark B. Lillibridge. Robert Gates has nearly finished the brick underpinning on the cellar wall. Handsome Grounds.
