Yet notwithstar ding the fact that the

MIDDLETOwN, Conn, Jan. 2-II
has been decided that the trial OF
Flank w. Mcclure, charged with the
murder of Mrs. Amelia q. Gregory
will come up next week in the court
of Oyer and Terminer. Mrs. Sarah
A. Brown who is thought to be an ac-
con- pIice OF Mcguire is under close
surveillance. She has made state
ment, which is an attempt to divert
suspicion from herself and Frank Nc
Guire and to fasten the crime on
Warren BrsziDgton. Brazing ton was
an accomplice before the act and
shared in the booty. He has since
turned informer and is held in Jail as
principal witness against his asso-
ciates in guilt. Mrs. Brown declares
that 1t was Brazington and not Nc
CURE who killed Mrs. Gregory. The
fact that there is an absolute and un-
Improbable alibi established In Braz-
ington's case deprives her statement
of any value.

"a Gold Day."

"a Cold Day" is nonsensical if you
will. but is funny just the same.
When one says that of this kind OF
play the end is reached and the audi
ence is satisfied. The more laughter
that are farce can raise the more
sue cessful it is, no matter whether
the laughter is raised by legitimate
or illegitimate means. Last nights
big audience at the Grand that saw
"a Cold Day" went into Mysteries of
laughter and was supremeiy satisfied.
The company is q clever one, the host
of fun makers being led by Perkins
d. Fisher and Andy AmOnn. Car
lotta," h neat little soubrette, takes
an important part and does her work
well. Her dances are somewhat out
of the ordinary run and are carefully
executed. The company also contains
more good singers than common.
