The comedian pretty wife, Edna Wallace

The announcement that The Sporting
Duchess will be given at the New Ma
tional Theater for one week, beginning
next Monday, will no doubt attract an
unusual degree Of interest, from the fact
that the ah-star cast which has presented
the play here on former occasions rema ins
intact. 1t seems haZa rd0us to present
such a company at regular prices and still
reserve a margin OF profit, and it is only
in anticipation Of a succession of crowded
houses that such an experiment could be
justified. The names of the principals
are j H. Stoddard, Cora Tanner, FfolIiott
Paget, Louis Aassen, and Edmund Collier
The original production will be given, in
cludine the great Derby race and all the
mammoth scenes and mechanical effects

be given on Thanksgiving Day and Satur-

make up Hoytian cOmedy. Next week,

BETHEL.
HoYT's MILL,

nOA . MILL"
The first grist mill erected in Bethel
was built In Plumtrees about 100 years
ago. The mill dam was located a few
rods above the bridge. The south end
near the residence of William
Wildman. The water of the pond flooded
nearly the same ground as the present
Ice pond, only the mill dam covered more
land, which made the best mill site ever
located onythe same street. Then the
water was penned in by natural earth
banks, that since have been carried away
by the great floods which probably de-
stroyed the old dam. A single stick of
hewed timber still marks the foundation
of the dam. The timber appears to be
sound and ia embedded In the gravelly
bottom of the stream as firmly as the
rocks in the hills around. The floods of
century or more have not moved it an
inch since first placed there to hold the
blanks and timbers of the old structure.
| The old mill was located near the present
farm of Milo Starks. The water was
carried from the pond to the mill wheel
in wooden troUghs. This mill was un-
doubtedly the second mill built in the
town of Danbury. The first mill built
was the Shelter Rock mill, better known
as Dibble's mill, built soon after the first
settlement Of the town. Samuel Hoyt
was the miller of the Piumtrees mill fer
many years, and from the best informa-
ton that can be obtained at the present
date, he built the first mill. Mr. Hoyt
was very influential man in the society
OF Bethel and was an early settler OF
Plumtrees. He and his wife were two
OF the II persons that withdrew from the
old mother church in Danbury to form
the First Church society of Bethel IL
1859! Mr. Hoyt's name may be founC
on the old Congregational church
records which are now in such gooC
preservation. He was often one of 1
committee to help settle disputes, tina
frequently occurred between neighbour
which in those days were, as a rule, set
tied by members of the church. Law
yers In those times were of little account
seldom employed in neighborhood quar-
rels. A deacon of the church was tn
most influential of the two. Miller Hoy
mad mind of his own. During a reli
gious controversy in the old church he
with many other memberF, Withdrew
and joined the Robert Sandman churcI
and was the prime mover in the building
OF that church In Plumtrees, which wa
located on the rocks, south of the pres
ent saw mill. Rufus Couch, bow s
years old, ia grandson of Miller Hoyt
He remembers many thirgs relating t.
later days in Plumtrees. Samuel hoy
died in the year 1911 and was 80 years o
age. His old homestead was locate
where the old red house now stands,
stones throw south Of his grandson
| present home. Other mills On the sam
stream will be mentioned in a later issu
of The BEE together with other incident
OF history.
