Hazel Dawn in The Heart of Jenni- fer was the feature attrac Auditorium theatre Monday, when the first half of the week opened with very pretty and attractive girls and three men. There was comedy in plenty and several excellent song num- bers. The costumes were beautiful and the stage setting:was appropriate to prted. The last ni:mber of the vaude- ville Lill was an imitator ané come- dian, George Stewart.

JOHN'S BOWLERS By 49 Pins in Matoh on New London Atleys. - * The duckpin teams of St. John's Literary association of New London took a match from teams representing the Sodality of this city on Monday evening on the alleys in New London. The match was rolled for total pinfall, in which the St. John'’s men won by 49 pins, 2597 to 2548. The following were the scores: Fregeau . Carberry Driscoll . Riordan . Desmond ... Totals Dray ..

Here he met Dubens who spent ¢ ’¥ionths at Madrid copylng Titlans and interested Velasquez in this work, 80 much so that he was granted leave to go to Italy where he stayed for 2 years studying. Velasquez was al- ways a great student—the outward aspect of things appealed to him and in- this study of truth he lald a good foundation of art facts. Then he tried to give the impression of the whole thi showed a portrait of the Kingdom with dignity and simplicity and Christ and two disciples. In these he shows more attention to detail than.in his later work. The Topecs also shows this same distribution of portraits. The Forge of Vulcan is between his early and later styles. In Italy he became interested in decorative work and the surrender of Breda, for some time his best work, is a good exam- ple of this flat composition. Several pictures were shown of megn on horse- hack—on the little round ponles then in fashion. After his second trip .to to | Italy he came back to his search for realism and his style changes to its best. A master of brush work, he can now put on his subject and to getting the quality and’right distribu- tion- of attention. Among his pic- tures- showing this skill are portraits of an old man, and of the Queen, The Spinners, graceful and one of his best, the Indanta, and The Maid of Hon- or. It was planning the festivities connected with this Infanta’s Mar- rfage to Louis XIV, lasting 72 days, which wore Velasquez out so that he died in 1660. * Dr. Browne assisted with the slides.

The art critic of the New York Sun- day World writes: George Bellows, whose skill has ample inspiration and reward in' current art, has just nar- rowly escaped fame as a futurist in Grand Rapids, Mich., owing to the hanging of his painting entitled The Blue Pool. Since Dec. § Grand Rap- lds has been enjoying an exhibition of the work of “twelve eminent Amer- ican painters,” among them Mr. Bel- lows. The examples are all good, but Mr. Bellows’ presented itself as a rid- dle, and on that account caught and held the public eye. No one professed to understand it, but it had arrived with a strong New York endorsement and hence it challenged the art intel- ligence of visitors. # There was a brown splash with gray edges in the center of the picture at the top, with interlardings of blue. Eil{ly specks of white flanked this sum- blues to the bottom. Grand Rapids society flocked to the picture daily and speculated on it. It was fast becom- ing a social issue. when a local art oracle and a vismexf artist from Lyme, Copn., were invite to give their ver- sions of the picture. They pointed out that the brown splash at the top was doubtless a mountain and the white specks in the zenith a cluster of planets. It was ex- plained that the eye must be spiritual- ized to lntflml.’.t a futurist produc- tion, but if t sort of vision could be gained and the picture could be viewed in the proper perspective it Would become an unclouded delight. This explanation was so impressive that the school authorities sent class- es of children to the show to study Bellows. TEarly in the last week a woman vis- itor at the exhibition complained to Of: | the managers that the Bellows picture the matter at 21 at the court house in Other ved | trom gave her a headache. “Turn it up- me see how it Suddenly the brown splash that had been at_the top settled at the bottom into a fine mass of patural wWhits planet specks ba spreading their sails expanse of blue sea, a blue Pool nestled within the rock shelter, and what had formerly looked like a bit of ragged blackish sky fell into a bottom corner, where it was easily read as the signature of Mr. Bellows. As an example of futurism the pic- ture had monopolized public attention and Bellows was an idol.

An event of particular importance to the sir knights of Columbian com- mandery, No. 4, K. T, and their guests is to be enjoyed at the Masonic temple on Wednesday evening when there will be witnessed the exemplification of the order of the Knight of Malta, with the full elaborate ritualistic accessories and proper dignity that accords with this degree. It will be the first time that the degree has ever been present- ed in full form in this city. ‘The Malta corps of officers who will present the work comprises: Eminent Prior — Em. Sir James C. Macpherson. Lieutenant Commander — Em. Sir Albert S. Comstock. . Captain General—Em. Sir Nelson J. Ayling. Prelate—Em. Sir E. Allen Bidwell. Marshal — Em. Sir George E. Par- so Charles B. Chapman. ‘Treasurer—Sir John C. Averill Recorder—Sir Frederick W. Lester. Table Guards — Sir Anton Nelson, Sir Roy D. Judd, Sir Claudius V. Pen- dleton, Jr., Sir Arthur G. Crowell, Sir Harry B. Ford, Sir Ernest J. Jones, Sir Herbert R. Kind, Sir Paul H, Zahn. Banner Guards — Em. Sir Charles ‘W. Gale, Em. Sir S. Alpheus Gilbert, Sir Louls H. Geer, Sir Guy B. Dol- ‘beare, Sir J. Oliver Armstrong. Trumpeters—Sir Aubrey W. Jarvis, Sir James A. Parker. Sentinel—Sir James C. Fitzpatrick. ‘The possibility of Columbian com- mandery having this degree exempli- fied in full form was presented at the conclave on Christmas day, the ritual- istic accessories for the degree having recently become the property of Co- lumbian commandery by gift from one of its eminent sir knights, and the working of this degree in full ritual- istic form will constitute the crowning achievement of the present adminis- tration of Columblan commandery. The Malta degrees are appendant to those of the Temple, the two pre- ceding being that of illustrious order of the Red Cross and that of the Tem- ple. The ritual and ceremony of the Temple degrees are familiar to every sir knight, but the Malta degrees in full form are seldom seen. Because of the symbolic and historic value, these degrees are ameng the most ceremonious and detailed In Masonry. ‘The Malta corps of ‘Washington com- mandery, No. 1, Hartford, is the most notable exponent of the work con- nected with the degrees In the entire country, the same group of men hav- ing worked together in conducting it for many years, and having exempli- fled in several different states. This ta corps has been the only one in the state and in New England that has exemplified the degrees in full form and it will be an.innovation t6 have a ‘Malta corps in Norwich.

A fire of mysterious origin dig sev- eral thousand dollars’ damage to th docks, coal pockets and storehouses at the new United States government base on the Thames river late Mon- day night. Officers in charge at the navy yard are reticent as to the de- tails. The New London city fire depart- ‘ment was sent to the fire and after a hard fight succeeded in preventing the blaze from spreading. The monitor Tonopah, the submarine E-1 and the repair ship Fulton, which were tied up at the dock, were hur- riedly towed out into mid-stream, as it was feared that the flames might spread to them, Five other submarines, anchored in the river, were not inm danger. It is said by the firemen that three unloaded torpedoes, valued at about $3,000 each, were destroyed. A num- ber of torpedoes, stored in a large shed, were removed to a safe distance _soon after the fire started, according b the firemen. # The blaze is said to have started in a coalbin and the firemen incline to the belief that it was of incendiary’ origin. The naval officers decline to discuss the fire. . A DASHING HAT OF MILITARY DESIGN ns. y Captain of the Outpost — Em.
