Hyperion Ihaater.


IN the nine successive years that
charles Frohman's stock company has
been visiting this city it has achieved a
degree of popularity unexcelled by any
other high class dramatic organization.
1t has always been noted for it's per-
fectlon Of balance, and has never
brought us play not altogether wor-
thy OF our best consideration. Its ninth
annual engagement here will be played
on Wednesday and Thursday at the
Hyperion in its latest triumph, the
French romance, Under the Red
Robe which Edward Rose adapted
from Stanley Weyman's novel of the
same name. A run Of three hundred
consecutive performances must be adj
mitted to be somewhat remarkable
record. That is what the Empire stock
company Under the Red Robe" did in
New York, and that Gothamites were
not tired Of 1t may be seen from the
statement that both company and play
will return to the same theater in De-
cember for another prolonged run. Will
liam Faversham, Viola Allen and J. TO-.
Dodson will have the leading parts.
Sale of seats now open. Prices $3.50, 81

PRISONER OF zENDA'S AUTHOR
TO READ.
Anthony Hope will appear at the Hy-
perion on Monday evening, December
20, under the management of Major /.
B. Pond. The New York World says:
Anthony Hopes first word won the au-
dience. His voice suggested instantly
that matinee idol, Sothern, and the re-
semblance between their methods was
quite striking at times. The chapter en-
titled If Love Were ALL from The
Prisoner Of Zenda,' is said to be the au-
thor's favorite portion Of the story, and
his reading was delightful. Altogether
Mr.. Hopes stories gain somewhat In
force from his reading
HANLONS' ''SUPERBA."
In the Hanlon's beautiful spectacle,
"Superba," which is to be at the Hype-

| is said to be practically new from start
to finish. From the rise of the curtain
"Superba'' is presented as a vehicle to
induce laughter and paroxisms of mer-
riment. The piece has been embellish-
ed to considerable extent by lot OF
new and beautiful scenery.

For Yales' Eleven VIII Probably Occur
This Week.
Chamberliu has returned to college
and the selection of a captain for next
years football team will no doubt occur
the first part of this week. 1t has been
deferred since the close of the season
because of his absence. The majority of
the undergraduates favor Charlie De
Saulles, whose brilliant work in the
games with both Harvard and Prince
ton place him in the front rank of quar-
ter backs He is fast, fearless heady
player and runs the team in good style.
These qualities combined with a thor
ough knowledge of the game make him
a strong candidate for captain.
Chamberlain is also mentioned for the
place. His work for the past two sea-
sons has been wonderful, and although
he is probably not 50 popular with the
student body he may be the choice of
the men who composed the eleven.

Grand Opera House.
THE SECRET ENEMY"

Boston and Philadelphia's latest sue
cess, "The Secret Enemy" will receive
it's initial production In this city at the
Grand opera house this evening, the en-
gagement being for two days. Judging
from reports, it is beautiful produc-
ton. 1.-THE Secret Enemy is five-act
play, each act containing a strong and
sensational climax and requires sustain
ed action of the most emotional kind,
especially by the principal characters.
Miss Eva Mountford as Marcelle Beau
chard the distressed heroine, maintains
we'll an exceedingly difficult part and
has ample opportunity to display her
dramatic abilities. She is ably support
ed by Mr.. Elmer Grandin as Louis Ro-
maine, her morbidly jealous husband,
and by John de GEE, who assumes the
character of Maurise de Franco C'The
Secret Enemy"), an extremely strong
bit of acting. James w. Rankson as
Count de Treville, Edwin r. Phillips as
Paul Bazin, Miss May Mitchell as Lu-
cette Lecroix and Miss Eta, Moran as
Alline Regay handle their respective
parts with force and finish. One of the
cleverest bits of character acting done
in the piece is that of Miss Ada Morton
as Madame La Roch, ex-ballet dancer
and mother-in-law. The scenery and
mechanical effects were especially de-
signed for this production, and the cos
tunes used are extremely handsome,
especially those worn by Miss Mount
ford and Miss Mitchell

"THE TORNADO"
| Lincoln Carter's mammoth scenic pro.
duction, "The Tornado" will be the at
traction Wednesday and Thursday
commencing with the Wednesday mat
inee. The production depends chiefly
upon it's scenic effects, and these alone
would carry much less meritorious
work to success. The principal sensa-
tional feature is a tornado scene in the
first act This is accomplished by the
aid Of electricity and specially con-
structed mechanism, fully equalling the
great freight train effect in 1.-THE F'ast
Mail" and the scene is one of terrific
reality.

Although it was one of the worst
evenings Of the season and raining
hard, there was fully 600 present at the
rink to see the polo game between the
New Britains and the new Wallingford
team. The game was hot one from
start to finish and the crowd nearly
went wild when the local team scored
the first two goals in the first inning.
There was more quietness when in the
second inning the New Britains scored
six goals by lively work, the first two
being Gagged in less than one minute.
In the last inning the Wallingford team
scored two, leaving the score to in
favor OF New Britain. The game was
the best exhibition of polo ever given in
Wallingford, and considering that it
was the first game the new players of
the local team have played together it
demonstrated the fact that Wallingford
has at last got a team that can play
polo and will make any of the league
teams that come here play polo to win.
The plays have style of their own,
and are lively set, and with more
practice together will make better
showing even than on Saturday even
ing. With a winning team, Walling-
ford would be one of the best playing
towns in the league. The Waterburys
will play here this evening, and the To-
cal team is determined to win the game
and big crowd will be present
The score is as follows.

The First Thing.

1t was during the terrific December
gales of year ago, writes correspond
ent, that Yankee schooner, flying sig
nails of distress, sailed into the bay of
Gibraltar. Almost Immediately the
American vice-consul, with friend, put
off from the Calpe Rowing club piers
to visit her. AS they clambered up the
ships ladder they were welcomed by
the captain, jolly Yankee from Ply
mouth, and by his rather gloomy crew.
Captain, are you in trouble? What
can do for you 2" asked the vice-consul,
at the same time remafking that his
friend had that morning arrived from
New York on the Furst Bismarck. "Wal,
sir! The Lord knows we've he'd our
trouble bein' "a days out o London,
an no nearer New York than this. Two

But if this here young man hes just

around their captain, and listened in

blown to pieces and from the wreck
nearly hundred dead, dying and in

Among the dead are the following
school children: Ollie Paramore, Claude

Willie McMurray, Kenneth Boynton,

Injured: Prof Covington, school
teacher; Prof. Walker, teacher.
At least ten others will die, accord

in the big building escaped injury.

Prof. Covington, going out to look
around, beheld a dark cloud, we'll
fringed with electricity, moving rapid
ly in the direction of the school. Hur-
rying the children into the building
for safety, the cyclone was upon them
before they had time to think. The
storm increased in velocity and the
building began to shake as if rocked in
the arms of mighty force.
The building was wrenched into frag-
ments so that the pieces fell inward,
and among the first struck were Claude
Roberts and Alice Putnam, who were
killed at the first blow. Little Willie
McMurray was caught under the heavy
timber and the life was crushed out Of
him. Kenneth Boynton was the next
who was seen vainly endeavoring to es-
cape from the death trap, but too late,
for the fatal blow had been struck.
Profs. Covington and Walker both
worked hard to rescue the little ones,
notwithstanding their own serious
wounds.

CuriOus Cuban Caves.

There il series of small and large
caverns in the marble rocks of the
Cuban mountains which are being grad
ually filed up, and that, too, in most
remarkable manner. The common land
snails, of which there are so many spe-
cies and varieties in Cuba, make these
caves . resort during the dry season.
They congregate on the floors of the
caverns in immense numbers and mil
lions Of them never leave. The reason
Is this: The water which drops from
the roofs or ceiling Of the different cav
erns contains large per cent. Of car
Donate of lime. When the water evapo-
rates the lime Is left behind, and, acting
as q cement it CLUES great layers Of
the snail shells together every year.
This process going on season after sea-
son is gradually filling up the Cuban
caves, ID 1t is only question Of time
when there will not be a single cavern
left on the island.

WAsHINaToN. March 2S.-By ma

Peckham, the supreme court of the
United States yesterday announced its
decision that the agreement Of the
Trans-Missouri Freight association to
maintain rates within its territory was
a violation Of the antitrust law Of 1890,
prohibiting contracts or combinations
in restraint of trade and must be aban-
doned. This reversed the decision of
the courts below, which ordered dis

say the decision Of the United States
supreme court In the trans-Missouri
Freight Association case, reversing
the decision OF the court below, which
was In favor of the association, has
but little practical application, as the
association has been dead nearly three
years. 1t is of great moment, how
ever, to the Joint Traffic and the Trunk
Line associations, the officials of which
will go carefully into the grounds of
the decision when they are more fully
known. The present suit against the
Joint Traffic association, brought on
similar grounds, was decided in favor
of the association in the circuit court
of New York on Friday. This case,
