W.9NTS THAT SfOO.

And There Are Four Other Claimants.
 Wethersfield, June 16--Another appli- cation for the reward of $4OO offered by the warden of the state prison here for the capture of Steere and Miner, the two convicts who escaped from the pris- on recently and who were captured in Essex a few days ago, was received this afternoon. It was from Frederick G. Ryan of Essex, who claims to have seen the fugitives before they were captured. He ran across them in the woods, and at once reported it to Ed gar w. Griswold, who, however, had previously seen the men, and who had already notified the authorities of the fact. There are four claimants to the money, A. $. Bugbee, constable from Saybrook; Constable Jones of Essex and Edgar w. Griswold, who first discover ed the men, and Wales B. Woodruff, who assisted in the capture. In speak ing of the matter tonight Warden J. l..
 Woodbridge said the question of the claims had not yet been decided and would not be until July 13 next, at which time it will be laid before the state prison directors at their regular meeting. MT. Woodbridge said he had offered the reward out of his own pock- ct, without any authority from the state and does not know that he will be reimbursed, though it is probable that the state will repay him. He did
 not care, he said, about that; it was the convcts he wanted. During the three years he has held the office this is the first break made, and he wants to keep up his reputation. He added that during the six years previous to his taking the office there were eight es-

Fjalkowski Astonishing Large Crowds
 Daily at Potts.
 Louis Fialkowski, the great Russian mimic and imitator of animals is mak. ing a sensation at Polls WonGt rland theater with his unique and decidedly original style of entertainment Other mimics and imitators nave appeaIe ed on this stage, but compared with TialkoW- ski they were like a rush light to an electric flash. He is easily the prince in his line, and certainly his performances so far have borne out the enthusiastic concentrations bestowed upon him by the press of New York and Boston, The two American Macs are funny as a matter of course in their rough l[nOckabout Irish comedy, the way they slap and bang each ether being ex ceedingly amusing. No better acro- batic dancers have been seen here than the three Mahr sisters, and they are making a very favorable impression. Other clever arts are introduced by Miss Helene Lowell and Edward g Abeles, MT. and Miss Silver, Miss Lil- lian Alderman, MT. Larsen and Miss Palmer, and x Ray BiXley. The show has many features of comedy, sensation and novelty, and is a. delightfully."- en- tertaining one from start to finish.
