New Haven hospital by the selectmen
of Madison on March 20, suffering from
heniplgia, died yesterday morning at
5 o'clock The man was found along
the tracks of the Shore Line road, and
as there was nothing on his person to
identify him he was taken to the hos
pital. All efforts to prove the patients
identity since he became an inmate of
the hospital have proved futile. He
was unable to communicate with any
one by reason of his affliction.
The news of the "unknowns' death
was sent to the Madison selectmen yes
terday morning. Unless relatives come
forward and claim the remains they
will be buried this afternoon in Pot

PoIt,s Wonderland Theater.

Miss Pauline Hall, the beautiful
queen Of comic opera, will head the bill
at Polls theater this afternoon and
during the week. 1t Is her first appear
ence as a vaudeville star in New Ha-
ven, and her first anywhere for the
Wonderland's popular prices. Our
readers, most Of whom have seen Miss
Hall when she was the associate prima
donna with Lillian Russell at the New
York Casino. will be highly interested
to see her in her new role. Miss Hall
is, with the possible exception of Rob
Hilliard and Maurice Barrymore, the
highest salaried star on the vaudeville
stage Her voice, always of the high
est order. is as rich and full as ever,
and she is handsomer in face and figure
than when she played in comic opera.
She has magnificent collection Of cos
tunes, and 1t Is said that she will wear
different dress at every performance
through the week. This will be
pleasing announcement to the ladies,
who are admitted to all parts of the
Wonderland in the afternoon for 10
cents, the prices for men at all times
being 10 and 20 cents. A very strong
vaudeville cast will appear with Miss
Hall, among others being Frank D.
BRYAN, Mr.. Stanley and Miss Jackson,
Stanley Whiting, Williams and Adams,
the original Star trio; Harry T. Wait,
and Mr.. Price and Miss Steele. The
magnitude of this bill, with head
liner like Pauline Hall, ought to test the
fullest capacityof the Wonderland at
every performance.
