A RIG COMEDY COMPANY.

G. B. Bunnell has pleasure in an- nouncing that for the first time in New England under the management of Messrs Hurtig and Seamon will be in- troduced at the Hyperion on Tuesday evening, December 27, Williams and Walkers two-act gigantic comedy com pany of thirty-seven of the most grace ful, neat, refined, educated and talented artists that ever appeared from the south on any American stage, with the most brilliant stage settings and cos tunes, music and acting rarely seen in any of the best operatic extravaganza companies on the road. They have an immense chorus of thirty trained voices and the solos, duets, quartettes and ouintettes, blended in with musical, magical and special turns in each act, are indeed a decided novelty of the year.
 MT. Bunnell says of it: T have wit messed the entire performance at Colo mel Sims beautiful Park theater at a crowded matinee of the most cultured and refined Brooklyn people, who went wild with enthusiasm over the unique performance as New Haven will do on the 27th of December. It is revelation in acting and music to the cultured stu dents and the world at large.''

TO PAY CITY DEBT.

Legislative Committea Agrees to Re-
 port for a Sinking Fund.
 At the meeting of the committee on legislation last evening it was voted to report favorably on the resolution de amendment of charter so that the court of common council may make transfers of appropriations by a five sixths vote of each branch of the court of common council; also to report fla vorably the resolution de amendment of city charter so that the court of common council be allowed the same period of time in which to consider and act upon the annual estimates of the board of finance. It was decided to recommend that the petition for the amendment of section 251 of the city ordinance striking out the words "cat- tie" and the words ''or cattle" be re- ferred to the committee on ordinances. The resolution providing that the city have the right to issue licenses for wheel vehicles, said license fees to be used exclusively for the improvement of the city streets was tabled.
 The committee has decided to recom- mend the plan for paying the city's in- debteaness A hearing was given on this proposition some time ago. In ac- cordance with this plan a tax will be levied each year, the receipts from which are to form a sinking fund, which will be used to pay the city's bonds and other debts as they fall due The rate will probably be half mill. It is estimated that in this way the city can pay it's debt in thirty-five years.
 At the public hearing on the plan prominent business men of the city were present and supported the plan in it's general details.

SANFORD A CAPTAIN.

George Foster Sanford, the well known Yale athlete, who has been a lieutenant in the Third regiment since last November, has just been appointed an aide upon the staff of General Waite. This gives Sanford the rank of captain. The regiment is now at Camp Marion, near Somerville, South Carolina. This news will send the hopes of many Yale undergraduates glimmering. They have desired that Sanford be made athletic trainer, but the chances are now that he will not resign his new position to accept the proffered position at Yale.

OUT- WAY SERVICES IN
 ST. PAUL'S

Considering the scanty attendance, 1t is probably not very widely known that there is a public service at o'clock every morning in the crypt of St. Paurs cathedral. Another service more suc- cessful in the matter of attendance is held at 1:15 in the northwest chapel. Here seats are set on either side of two ranges, one placarded Men the oth- CT labelled Women" It is noteworthy that this separatist arrangement is not taken kindly to by the congregation, for, while the men are hardly ever bold enough to venture in the women's seats the women utterly ignore the notice and boldly mix with the men. Both ser vices are brief, and of the simplest character.-The London News.

NEW HAVEN AGAIN WINS
THE W1TERBURY POLO TEAM DID
 ROUGH WORK.
Roberts Ordered or the Floor and
 Fined S5-Score 6 to 9.

Fined S5-Score to 2.
 The New Haven polo team journeyed
 to Waterbury, the home of the Tigers,
 last night and defeated them in their
 own rink by the score of goals to 2.
 The game was characterized by the
 rough play of the Waterbury team, who
 spared no questionable tactics in order
 to win. From the first it became ap-
 parent that the Blues were there to win and that by playing a scientific game in the first period only one goal was scored by each side. But after this the New Haven boys showed their su- periority by their fine passing play and it was soon apparent that they were not only there to win, but that they
 were there to play polo as it ought to be played, fact which the spectators
 were not slow to appreciate. When Wa terbury became cognizant of the fact that they were being outplayed they reSorted to tactics which were, to say the least, of a very small nature. This assertion can be backed up from the fact that Roberts, the first rush
 of the Waterburys, was not only order
 ed off the floor, but was also fined $5 for his persistent attacks on Bone, who was playing all around the Wa 1 terbury team. The following is the | score:
 | Waterbury. New Haven l Roberts ....... First rush. :. ....B Bone Griffin. ....Second rush. ...W. Whiting | Delaney .......... Center. ........ Leydon | Holderness .....Back.. w.
