A New Theatre opened.

NORWICH, Conn, December TO-
The New Broadway Theater was for
mslly opened Saturday evening by tho
Pauline Hall Opera Company, whith
appeared in Amorita before a $500
house. The wealth of the brilliant
audience which was prent aggregated
about $50, ZOO, 900. Over $40, ono, 900
were represented i'm one box alone,
that occupied by Mr.. VIM. A. Slater.
The Rev. DR.. l.. Wooley Bacon de-
livered an address to his congregation
upon the subject of the theaters, in
connection with the splendid struct-
ure closed his remarks as follows.
I'VE have got TO look the facts in
the face" he continued, land recog-
nize that the old sweeping condemn
alton of the theatre, once universal
among earnest and pure and faithful
men, was founded OF a state of facts
which no longer exists. That there
has been a change in the theater it,
self, in its plays, in its personnel.
There was a time, not so very long
ago, when the name Of actress was a
synonym for infamy. Today the man
who should make such a presumption
as that against the character of a
lady devoted to this trying and peri
lous profession, would be guilty of a
wicked calumny. In view of these
revolutionary changes in the theater,
for the Church TO maintain its old
attitude of condemning all indiscrim-
inately would not be consistency,
but bigoted Inconsistency"
/ am as a minister of the Gospel,
glad to extend an open welcome to
the new theater, if 1t shall be a place
where wholesome and pure amuse-
ments shall be provided for the peo-
pie, under every possible safeguard
against corruption and abuse.

Bad Effects of Tight Collars.

A chapter might be written on the
deleterious effects of tight collars, and
especially that variety which objects
stifly beneath the neck, to the mani
fest discomfort Of the wearer and the
amusement of beholders. BY COM
pressing the veins they, of course,
interfere with the return of blood
from the head, and thereby promote
red noses and piDpled faces, against
which all the cosmetic lotions In the
world are of no avail so long as the
mechanical cause Is allowed to re-
main. Tight collars are even accused
and with some show of reason-of
causing serious defects of the visual
apparatus, due to heightened blood
pressure. arising from the artificial
impeachment to the roo of the neck.
We should not De surprised to find
that these eXecrable co~ntrivances
were also responsible for warery eyes,
pendent lips, and the general vau--
cousuess Of expression which usually
characterizes the p~hysiognomy of

\ Mexican Lad Fatally Shot While

Yesterday morning a young Mexi-
eau boy aged ", died from . load of
duck shot, which he had accidentally
received while out hunting Sunday
with another Mexican boy. The name
of the unfortunate hunter was Chas.
Parotte, and his slayer was Sargasso

hunting near Lakeview. 1t seems
that while de Leon was laying for
some ducks, Parotte passed before
Leon, but tripped over Icons gun,
which was discharged, Parotte receiv-
ing the entire load of coarse duck
shot through his right leg. The boy
was taken to his home by a Mexican
who was passing in a cart, AMI his
wounds were promptly dressed by a
physician. The police knew nothing
ut the matter until de Leon came to
the station and surrendered himself.
The wounded man died at ii a m.

The cause of the uneasiDess among
