cooler In summer than the outside air.

man run out from the score with fresh

the dogs, with their handler, are also in

over the Lowell OF the ground. As birds are
retrieved they are thrown into this CON-
partment, SO no dead or wounded birds
are seen lying about on the ground.
The clubhouse is model of convenience
and elegance and fills a void that has long
been aching. Instead of standing about In

onlookers are compelled to do on other
grounds, they may put In the waits In
comfort and even luxury.

Fred Doe and the rest of the New Bed
ford contingent came to this city last
evening with the intention of returning to
the whaling town with their belts filled
with scalps. Whether the train was bur-
dened with snow or talent, it required an
hour beyond the time scheduled to bring
it here. Possibly Doe was in the last seat
and kicked, but at 8 o'clock they arrived,
and started in the way peculiar to whaling
districts to win the game.
The Tigers we're kind enough to let them
have the two first goals and then called a
halt. After Capt. Whiting had instructed
his men to play polo the gentlemen from
New Bedford cut little figure in the
game.
The New Bedfords didn't amount to
much after the first period, during this
division % time they made two goals.
The game was at times exciting. With
the. exception of the goal tender all the
home team received mementoes of the
game more or less pronounced. Cunning
4 ham played great game and to his work
may be credited the majority of goals won.
IAtions put up IN excellent defence and
the clever stops made by him were recog'
nised by the audience. Captain Hobe
proved the right man in the right place
on more than one occasion, and his cool
judgement did much toward the victory.
y For the New Bedfords, Spencer put up
. rapid game and played good polo. Doe
apparently was little of, as the drives
made by him for goal went wide of the
mark. Taken all together 1t was an ex-
citing game and enjoyed by the 5OOpresent.
The spectators occupied the time between
goals making fun of Doe, the New Bed
ford man got even by calling the audience
on the stage seats ''muckers" The score.

The all star American company is providing rare entertainment at Polls Wonderland theater this week. It is a rarely good combination of star artists, about every one of whom could be made a headliner of any aggregation. Little Baby Russell, the four-year-old wonder, probably leadsall in the amount of applause received, as she certainly does in eleverness. It is marvellous how the little tot is able to sing and dance so skillfully, and she has easily won her way to the top of the list Jules and Ella Garrison have also made a big hit with their very bright traves- ty. MT. Garrison's spirited declamation in defense of the G. A. R. against Col Waring always awakening tremendous enthusiasm. Other attractive special ties are presented by Fred Leslie's won- derful leaping dogs, Miss Ida Russell, the three Helstons, Mir. and Miss Fan son, Tom Ripley, the Mirambo trio. It is show that offers enjoyment to everyone, every act being of the kind that is specially pleasing.

GRAND OPERA HousE.

There was a large audience at the
 Santanelli and the Vitascope. Martin
 Slinker, the man whom Santanelli put
 to sleep at 10 p. m. on Monday night is
 attracting much attention, and is con-
 stantly visited by members of the med
 ical profession and scientists. He seems
 to rest very comfortably. He will re-
 main asleep until 10 D. m. on Saturday
 night, when Santanell will awaken
 him from his long slumber.
 Three young men were brought out
 on the stage, and they took their seats
 in chairs placed in the center of the
 stage. Santanelli told them to close
 their eyes and go into a deep sleep, and as they passed into the hypnotic state he told them not to fall off their chairs, and they didn't He took a
 needle and a long piece of cotton thread and passed them through their ears and lips, stringing them together like so many fish. The thread was pulled backward and forward through the holes the needle made, but there was no bleeding and there were no signs of pain or feeling of any kind.
 Later in the evening, when the young
 men were put to sleep again, Santanelli said nothing to them about remaining
 on their chairs, and they rolled off on to the floor He told them to put their feet together, place their hands against | their sides and to become as rigid as | iron. Two wooden horses were brought | in. Two of the young men were sus- | pended on these by their necks and heels, the third was placed across theii 1 bodes and Santanelli stood on his l breast. They all remained as fixed and unyielding as bars of iron.
 ''The Vitascope" is Wizard Edison's 1 latest electrical marvel, and is a most | pronounced success. The first picture shown is Herald Square, New York 1 city, cable cars go by, passengers jumr | on and off, and pedestrians dodge the l teeming traffic of this busy thorough l fare The Leigh sisters are seen in the | Umbrella Dance; a burning house witf 1 friends rescuing the inmates; Cissy l Fitzgerald with her wink and kiss, anG 1 the scene from "The Widow Jones, l where May Irwin and John c.
