The Red Rose, a musical comedy, pretty in costuming and scenic effects and tuneful in melody, was given in matinee and evening performances at the Davis theatre on Saturday, but with audiences hardly adequate for the merit of the show. The scenes were Parisian throughout and the particu- larly beautiful scenic effects were reached in the second and third acts, the baron's chateau and the ballrven in the Quartier Latin, respectively. Girls, gowns and music, with some bright comedy parts, were the com- ponent parts of the show, and all were satisfying. As the artist's model. Lot- tie Kendall played the lead with dra- matlc ability and a stage va Jason gave a spirited interpretation of Gyp, the vivacious little art student. In the hands of Maurice Darcy, George Graham, Earl McHaffle and Carl George, the comedy work was admira- bly done, and the musical number trat was the star in the offering was the tenor solo I Hear You Calling Me by Henri Le Bonte.

Saturday afternoon was thé& chii- dren’s day at the armory at the Nor- wich Industrial and Good Home expo- sition conducted by the Norwich coun- cil of Commerclal Travelers and tne evening was the appointed time for tne Mardi Gras night which was to be the closing feature. Both had large at- tendances, and in the evening the promised Mardi Gras event was car- ried out with complete success. Maay of the exhifitors took early precaution to save their exhibits from possible injury and packed up soon after 9 o'clock. ‘When the Marii Gras merriment was let loose with the air filled with confetti or long streamers of serpen- tine, the frolicsome crowd entared heartily and good naturedly into the spirit of the evening and the individ- uals that walked or danced up and down the aisles were twined with the vari-colored paper, while the bobbing red caps from the Kellogg grape juice booth that every exhibitor and com- mitteeman wore were a conspicuous feature that added to the carnival air. Business was forgotten and the Providence bakery booth was simesL mobbed when all the bread members of the Doe and Bunny family were given away and the big 15-foot loaf was cut up. Seon the pleces of bakery stuft were found to serve admiravly for sharpshooting and were flying ail around the hall. Ceorn and grain from the Norwieh Grain compauy booth also came in handy for these uses and was frequently dropped Gown the back of some unsuspecting victim. The merry performance lastad until nearly 11 o'clock, when it was time to put the lightss eut and call the first exposition of the Cemnercial Travelers at an end. BOULPER ROLLED DOWN ON TO TROLLEY TRACKS From High Bank en Nerth Main Street —Seen in Time by Motorman. Shortly after 8 o'clock Sunday even- ing a large boulder, weighing a ton or more, rolled down from the high chff on North Main street on to the south- bound treliey track of the Shore Line Electric_company’s line a shors way north of Preston bridge. The metorman of the .15 car bound for the square noticed the obstruction on the track in time to stop his car and avoid running into the big stor. The car crew, aided by half a dozen passengers, rolled the big boulder off the track to one side of the road, ar the car proceeded on its trip. 'Tr police were notified and they in turn notified the street department, which had a red Hght placed on the boulter as a warning. The boulder was prib- ably loosened by the rain. CHINA CHANGING. Influences of Modern Ideas Shown by by Rev. C. E. Ewing, Tientsin Mis- sionary. At the union service at Broadway Congregational church Sunday even- ing Rev, Charles E. Ewing, an Amer- ican missionary who has been in China, gave an interesting discourse on the radical changes that are tak ing place in that far off country, giv- ing an inslght into the conditions of the New China and the Old. The congregation was of good pro- portions in spite of the rainy and weather. The scripture read- <hilly ing from the book of Isaiah was read by Rev. E. 8. Worcester, pastor of the church and prayer was oftered by Rev. 8. H. Howe, D. D, pastor of Park Congregational church. 400,000,000 People. In opening his address Rev. Mr. Ewing sald the scripture lesson that had just been read could be applied to conditions in many countries but especially to the conditions in China. The Chinese political change is a marked one. The short revolution there changed the nation that for 4000 vears had been ruled as a monarchy, to a republic. It requires some time time for this nation of 400,000,000 peo- ple to become accustomed to and set- tle down under the new form of government. New Education Coming. Probably but one in one hundred Chinese can read and write sufficiently to pass the citizenship examinations. The rew education is rapidly coming into China, both for men and women, and is fitting them for the republican citizenship. Social Changes. Another change has been along so- cial lines. Opium has been one of the great vices of China but is use is being gradually stamped out. For many vears the fertile plains were turned oved to poppy groging and the production of opium. The imperial government began the work of stamp- ing out the vice, it was was taken up by the republica, end it has been effectively carried on. Chinese a Practical People. The Chinese are a practical people not only in business life but along other lines. If they are shown that Christianity is the practical religion for them we may be sure they will ac- cept it The family life of the Chinese is also changing in the old China the oldest woman of the family was the head of the family, the man taking second place. Ready For New Raligious Life. China is ready for a new religious life. Intolerance and persecution passed away on Feb. 12, 1912, when the republic came into life. Since then there has been a new attitude towards Christianity and in a very few years Christianity will be firmly rooted in China. There is need for teachers as well as for money and grand opportunicies to carry on the work are open to the sons of America. Lyme Artists to Exhibit.

Mr Prescott, referred to as “King Fred” at every mention of hig name in the course of the remarks that were made by the various spemkers, revaid yet another side of his character and talents when he presided with an easy grace at the head of the board, having some happy introduction for each one of those whom he called upon for re- marks It was the general expression on the part of all the exhibitors that the ex- position nad been a success and they hal been antpily repaid along business | lines for coming to the Norwich expo- sition, and one man said he had done more business here than he had dome in an exposition at Buffalo, N. Y. Whatever tcpic # speaker started upon, he was sure at some time to re- vert ‘to praise for his tactful and admirable conduct of the exposition in all lines, and although Mr. Prescott as toast- master tried to turn the remarks in other channels, he could not stem the “King Fred” with words of tide of praise coming his wavy.
