Lived in a Hut Ncsr West River.

Early yesterday morning Patroman Thomas Hackett arrested q nice-look- ing girl about twenty-two years old, whom he found in an old hut near West river bridge near the Yale field. She was apparently demented and was consequently taken into custody. At police headquarters she gave her name as Mary Carroll and said she lived in Springfield, Mass. She was turned 1ver to the care of Agent Preston of the Organized Charities. who subsequently learned that her name was Maud M Goffe and her home was in Westneld, Mass. She has been living in the hut near West river since July 4. Her friends in Westfield have been commit nicated with and she will probably be returned to them to-day.

Polls Wonderland Theatcr,

Yesterday afternoon the Wonderland brave and beautiful in it's new decora-
 tions was thrown open to the admirins public. To say that they were most favorably impressed and delighted would not more than express the gen. eral verdict. The many improvements under the able charge of MT. Poli are both fine and beautiful. The bill which is to be presented during the week is an excellent one, and all the numbers are very meritorious. The show was enthusiastically received and judging from the applause it will prove very popular with the patrons of the Won- derland and keep the theater crowded at every performance throughout the week. The performance is opened with Miss Mary Rollo, who intrdouced a number of popular songs and also exc cuted a very clever dance. Sam Lang and Dollie Sharp in sketch entitled "A Lucky Interview" was we'll received. Miss Sharp gives d very clever skip. the rope dance, which took well with the audience The Auber Sisters sang several taking songs and were recalled several times. Kennedy and Gregor contributed music act, which won for item mach applause. "The Hog Train" a. musical act in which that animal was concerned, was greeted with 8 storm of applause. Little Goldie, dressed in a sailor costume, introduced the. 'IHornpipe' to the delight of all present. The serpentine dance by Beatrice and Hattie Goldsmith was also we'll rendered and came in for long applause George Leslie in song and dance and witty sayings was also well received and his number of new ''gags" went with the audience im- mensely. The comedy boxing act be- tween the Glenroy Brothers was very amusing and contributed much to the success of the performance. The four Goldsmith Sisters in a French quadrille were accorded a most welcome recep- ton and they are deserving great share of praise. These acts worked the audience up to a high degree of enthusiasm and they loudly applauded. Taken as a whole, it would be hard to find more pleasing or varied enter tainment. E,
 Two performances will be given both afternoon and evening every day. Mr.
 Poli retains this season as assistant manager and press agent, Dale Arm strong, who is well known in this city

 Miss Ellsler has a charming person. ality and was quietly effective as Doris Nane. Mir. Drouet. the author of the play. appeared as the squire. Frank Weston played the character of an Irish doctor In a most satisfac tory manner. Evelyn Evans. who was seen last year in the Senator" company, appeared as the aged rector and gave the character very polished interpre- tation, and his rendering of the part was one of the features of the per formance. Messrs. Farren Chamber lain and Lawrence Power gave excel lent support. The acting of all the fe- male parts was in capable hands, and others deserving of special mention are the Misses Weathersby. Hudson, Albert and Stannard.
 The play was staged eXcellently, and Miss Ellsler and Messrs Weston and Drouet won curtain calls. Doris" will be repeated again this evening, and a crowded house may be looked for.

Eleventh Annual of the Hartford Wheel
 (ly,h


 Club.
 i" Hartford, Conn.,, Sept. 3.--The eleventh annual tournament of the Hartford Wheel club was we'll managed, the en- tries were full, the weather was about perfect, but the racing was rather tame. There was as large an attend ance as was expected, nearly 5000 be- ing present. w. W. Taxis of Philadel- jhia won two of the class E races. the one mile open and the quarter-mile open. The mile open was declared no race, as it was run in 2:40, the time limit being 2:35. The race was not run off and the men do not get the prizes Taxis won the quarter-mile event rather easily. c. R. Newton of the Thread City cyclers, who has been defeated only once this year, won two races handily, the L. A. W. championship and the mile open. Charles A. C. J. Guy of the Unonvillcs also did some great riding, capturing two races. In the second heat of the 2:45 class George H. Converse of Springfield fell from his wheel about 100 feet from the tape. He was in advance of the others and was seen to wobble before he fell. Fred A, Nagle of the Riverside whelmn was narly knocked off his machine as he went by the fallen man, but managed to hang on, his feet being off the pedals, however. He was going at good speed and managed to get in fourth. Very slow time was made, two of the heats being over three minutes. The fastest time of a scratch man was made by Taxis in the class E mile handicap, his time being 2:l7 2-5. The fancy riding by Wilmot and Barber was not up to their standard, Barber having a cut finger. Fl F. Raymond was referee

residence, corner of Monroe and Wash

of his approaching dissolution, all the

ALEXANDRIA.

About 10000 people have died in Alex
andria since the town was established,
and, although the town has been some
times very nearly at a standstill, the popu-
lation of its graveyards has constantly
increased. At first all the graves were
made on the hillside which sloped from
Royal street toward the old creek which
flowed near where North Pitt street now
runs. About the time of the revolution and
for thirty years afterward all the graves
were made around Christ Church and
around the old Presby terrain Church which
stood on Fairfax near Wolfe street. These
two cemeteries with the Friends cemetery,
at the corner of Columbus and Queen
streets. still remain cared for, but since
1905 no interment within the corporation
lines has been legal. Almost all the old
cemeteries of the Presbyterian, Episcopal
and Methodist churches are now filled with
graves. Even the Union cemetery, in
which the first grave was made shortly
before the late war, is now nearly full,
and the corporation cemetery at Penny
Hill is more than full, many of the graves
having two stories of dead. The picturesque
Ivy Hill cemetery, on the hills west of the
town, still has room for many hundred
tenants, and the new Bethel cemetery near
Gibbons and Hamilton streets has capacity
ample enough for the burial of half the
present generation. The Catholic cemetery,
larged and is now about to be extended
east by a picturesque addition, which will
rclude several fine hills. Whatever may be
the fortune of Alexandria in the future
there certainly will be no need to cremate
its dead for want of ground to bury them
in.
Judge Keith, who resumed his session
of his circuit court here yesterday, has
