Grand Onera House.

"The Dazzler'' is a capital show, and
those who were not in the Grand opera
house last evening should make an eff
fort to go this afternoon, this evening
or both, if they like lively combina-
ton of specialties. The Grand opera
house was well filled with most en-
thusiastic audience, who laughed and
applauded throughout the three acts,re-
calling the singers and dancers again
and again. Everyone was a comedian
and all were really funny the girls are
nice looking, wore pretty costumes and
danced and sang upon any or no prov
ocation. Mr.. West and Emil Huesel
were great as the tramp and German
brewer. But as sung by Mr. West, his
patriotic song Uncle Sans Reply"
was decided hit. The representatives
of the gentler sex were equally clever
in their specialties. 'The Dazzler''
will be repeated to-day and tomorrow
matinee and night and will draw big
houses, for it is a rafting and anus
ing entertainment. Prices Evening,
Toe, zoe, 30; matinees, 10c and zoe. La
dies and children ten cents to all parts
of the house.
VAUDEVILLE AND ATHLETICS.
The Grand opera house certainly has
very pleasant surprise in store for it's
patrons when the New Haven A. c.
Vaudeville and Athletic Co. appears
here for six nights and usual matinees,
commencing Thursday evening, and the
chances are that the Grand will be
packed at every performance during
the stay here. AL Woods, manager of
the show, has secured one of the best
vaudeville shows ever seen in this city,
and the star of the company is Chuck
Connors, better known as the Mayor
of Chinatown. He will be assisted in
his dances here by Miss Gladys West
ern. The rest of the company is COM
posed of Waldron and Waldron, de-
scriptive vocalists; Walker sisters,
singing and dancing soubrettes; Burke
and Scott, Irish comedians; Allie Gill
bert, baritone singer; Clifford and Dix
on, Dutch senator's and Hilton, very
clever juggler. The athletic portion of

Camp There.
New London, May 2.-There Is now
no doubt but that he rendezvous at Nj
antic will be used, not only for the
Connecticut Volunteers, but fer the
Second army corps. Congressman Rus
sell telegraphed to New London in re-
Spouse to an inquiry:
"As now arranged the Second army
corps will rendezvous at Mantle"
This probably means that the men
from New England and eastern states
will rendezvous on the coast and prob
ably Mantle will be used for troops
from other places so that an army
corps of considerable proportions will
be stationed near New London.
1t is estimated that from 10000 to
10000 troops will be stationed here Or
ders have been issued to increase bat
terry II of the Second artillery. station
ed at Fort Trumbull to a war footing
of 200 men. There are now only 65 men
enlisted there, so that 1876 more will
be needed. There are not room for 200

will be quartered in cents.

happens to be in garden on the banks

in love with her. The story winds up
very prettily but with many other in
cidents that hold the attention closely.
There is something bewildering in the
way the incidents move, but nothing is
out of place, except dullness, in the
topsy-turvy world of Francis Wilson

is seen again nimbly slipping, sliding
and acrobattically tumbling about,
singing without any voice for song,
but always with wonderfully humorous
expression, and dancing with a grace
quite inimitable. The laughter is in

Country club has leased the tract of
land just across the lake from our

up for a great playground. The loca-
ton is delightful one and this should
add another attractive feature to our

mand upon our church and community

METHODS OF WORK.
Miss Burton, the president, was seen
and questioned in regard to the nature
of the work done by the organization.
I'VE work very quietly" she said,
trying to put what money and sup
plies we have where they are most
needed and will do most good"
Then you don't confine your efforts
to the needy Hebrews?"
mo, not If an appeal comes to US
which cannot get response elsewhere
OF course, we are Hebrew society,
and our first care, we think, ought to
be for our own people; but in distress,
you know, all men and women are
brothers and sisters"
When asked to describe the methods
of work adopted by the society, the
president said:
I'VE have two trustees, who are elected at
our annual meeting to visit IN the poorer
districts and report the cases of SICKNESS and
want. Then We give relief as quickly and as
carefully as possible. The trustees for this
year are Mrs. l.. Moses and Mrs. R. Jacob"

During the time of the washouts we rendered
what help we could without reference to na

Then your organization has an interest in
Red Cross work, has 1t not?
Surely" answered Miss Burton enthusiast
tically 1--WE haven't much money to give
but what we could spare We gladly sent last
Wednesday to the Red Cross rooms, so was
our offering. You see we have so many calls
and some of them we can't put off. At our
meeting last Sunday there was an appeal
from man who had landed in the city with
out cent, and could get no work. We had
to furnish him $40 to give him chance to
earn his living. Then we taking care of

for donations appeared In the papers without
a complete list of the donors names. l wish
the oversight was by no means due to in

The officials of the Minnesota Transfer
company are WAITING for the 10Th OF the
month, when committee will report on the
question Of purchasing the New Brighton
stock yards, which ahve been offered to the
company for 100000.
The property includes seven acres of stock
yards, twenty-three miles Of railroad tracks
with land and parts OF two lakes, where ice
may be obtained in winter. The most r,ou5
objection urged against the purchase is that
the property does not connect with the PR s.
ent yards Of the Minnesota Transfer COM
pany. and that if bought, connections must
be made with it. The matter is complicated
by the crossing of the Belt line and Twin
City railroad tracks and by the tracks OF the
Great Northern railway. The committee
which was appointed at the last meeting
when the subject was considered will ex-
anime the titles to- the crossings to make GER.
