pR1NcEroN,s PRACTICE.

Princeton, Nov 10.-A pouring rain all the forenoon turned the football field into a lake. Captain Hillebrand kept his braves at Osborne field in the cage; there his twenty selected men had their own way. The scrubs were relieved from duty and the last work that might be called practice was taken. The coaches gave the last words of advice, and all the nicely planned plays were executed for the last time until Satur- day. Wheeler and Ayres each took a turn at full-back; so did Hutchinson, Duncan, Black, Kafer, Geer and Pell The next time the team lines up each man will know whether he is to have the honor of being in the Princeton eleven when the ball starts. After half hour of caged practice the rain be- gan to slacken and the men came out on Osborne field to run through the plays where there was more room.
 Princeton has come through her in- juries in a remarkable manner, and Reiter seems to be the only man who will not play. Wheeler, Hutchinson, Beardsley and Kafer were all doubtful at the beginning of the week, but care ful practice and good work on the part of their trainer have brought them around in fairly good shape. They can start, but it is speculation to say how long they can last. Princeton men are in mortal fear of a repetition of the scenes that happened in New Haven last fall when the best men of Prince toms team were carried off the field one by one. This fear keeps down confi- dence here.

 TWO GIRLS AND ONE MAN"
 Edward E. Kidder's latest comedy, Two Girls and One Man." was pro- duced for the first time at the Grand yesterday by Alice Evans and Harry Mills. It is not an act that will win en- thusiastic applause. It differs from all vaudeville acts and seems out of place. One was reminded of a boarding house breakfast. MT. Kidder had evidently written three-act comedy, then chang ed his mind and boiled it down to a twenty minute sketch. There is noth- ing consistent in the piece. A man meets a woman who is an artist, and twenty minutes afterwards places an engagement ring on her finger. An other character, fresh girl, walks in with a typewriter and acts outrageous ly familiar and loutish for no apparent reason, then walks out with the dignity of a queen. Miss Evans conception of the tomboy character is very much overdrawn. Her character as the artist was very pleasing and she made the most of unsatisfactory lines. The piece contains good many good points, but as vaudeville sketch it is very unsat- isfactory. MT. Mills acted his part well, but with an evident mistrust as to the effect. On the whole, it cannot be said that the Two Girls and One Man. is a success.

The exceptional social impor- tance of the Israelites in Jamaica is due to the fact that the island was set tied while Cromwell ruled in England and everybody knows that the Protec- tor sympathized strongly with the re- fugees from inquisatorial persecution in Spain and Portugal. There are two f1ourishing synagogues in Kingston, one for Spanish and Portugese Jews, which also includes the negroes; the other for English and German Jews.
 This ought to be the most pious is land under the sun, judging from the church records. Although the institu- tions of the Church of England are most in evidence, fully one-third of the population are Baptists, and every other religious denomination is rLpre- scented.

CYR4No DE BERGER4G.

Daly's Company i'm D Famous Play.
 Augustin Daly's company headed by Ada Rehan is playing a three days engagement in this city and it will be a brief golden age for lovers of the theater and dramatic art. The engage ment opened last night with the first presentation in this city of Rostand's now famous play, "Cyrano de Berge- rac." The Hyperion was completely filled and would doubtless have been crowded if the weather had not been so bad. The piece is the most widely discussed play of recent years, and has made Edmond Rostand a famous man. Great interest had been felt in the pro- duction in this city and oniy the dread ful night could have kept the audience away, The second performance of the piece on Saturday afternoon is sure to draw crowded house. The play is worth seeing on it's own account and it gives an opportunity to see Miss Rehan and Mir. Richman in a new light. This evening Miss Rehan and MT. Richman will be seen in Wycher- lys "A Country Girl' and "The Sub tleties of Jealousy" in which both have excellent roles. and MT. Varry, the ad- mirable "old man. of the company is particularly good. Tomorrow after noon "Cyrano" will be repeated and in the evening Miss Rehan will appear as Katherine in '"rhe Tanning of the Shrew, which is perhaps her most fa- nous role. Miss Rehan is one of the three great comediennes of the day, the others being Rejane and Ellen Ter ry She has that perfect feeling for comedy and that inborn talent for hu- morous expression that belonged to the old school. Her Peggy Thrift and her Katherine" are marvellous imper- sonations and the opportunity of see- ing them ought not to be neglected.
 "Cyrano de Bergerac" will be repeat ed at the matinee tomorrow, when the prices will be 75 cents, $1 and $1.50. This evening a double bill will be given "The Country Girl" in which Miss Re- han appears as Peggy Thrift, preceded by the one-act comedy "Subtleties of Jealousy" Tomorrow evening Miss Rehan appears in her great impersona tion of Katherine in Flaming the Shrew." Evening prices $1, S1.50 and s2
 NEW COMEDY.
 In the new comedy "A Stranger in a Strange Land," which comes to the Fly perion next Monday evening, the funny incidents and laughable situations with which the piece abounds are furnished principally by an American Indian who has been taken abroad by western doctor as an advertisement for a fa- nous brand of stomach bitters. The doctor and the Indian, through chain of peculiar circumstaices, are installed as guests in an English home. Many entanglements occur, the unravelling of which causes no end of amusement. Manager Wilkinson has engaged fine company of comedians, including

directors and in view of the fact that it was reported that New York would not have a team in the league Mr. Conn's presence and his explanation relative to his non-attendance at the meeting of last week proved most grat- flying. MT. Conn has made all prep arations to put an exceptionally fast team in the league, and the rink where the games will be played has seating capacity of 7500 people. It will have to be modified somewhat, however; therefore it was decided at last nights meeting to continue the schedule pre- viously adopted until after Thanksgiv- ing, when a new schedule to include New York will be adopted.

The Simplest Cure for Indigestion.
As Well as the Safest and Cheapest

As We'll as the Safest and Cheape
 The new medical discovery, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, digest the food in- stead of making the worn-out stomach do all the work, give it much needed rest, and a cure of dyspepsia is the natural result,
 You get nourishment and rest at the same time, because these Tablets will thoroughly digest all wholesome food taken into the stomach, whether the stomach works or not. A cure is cer- tain to result because the digestive or gans are given a chance to rest and recover their natural vigor and tone. The Tablets are then no longer re- quired.
 To show the manner in which the remedy acts on different people and how quickly and effectually it cures stomach troubles, we present few re- cent cases.
 MT J. o. Wondly of Peoria, Ills, writes: I was unable to eat anything but the plainest food and even that often distressed me, but since using one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets I can eat anything and everything I want.
 Mrs Samuel Kepple of Girty. Pa, writes: I have been entirely relieved of my stomach troubles by your Tablets. I suffered three years with sour stom- ach and gas at night. I am thankful for them.
 Mrs A. E. Bowen, Barnard, Vt, writes: ] think Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the best thing for dyspep- sia I ever took. I will recommend them to anyone troubled as bad as I was.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will not disappoint because they cure Dyspep- sia surely and lastingly by causing the food to be properly assimilated, and cure constipation by producing the proper quantity of bile. Sold by all druggists at 50 cents per package. Send for free book on stomach d -seasss to Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich.

Meeting of Directors of Southern New

 The Southern New England Polo league directors met at the Quinnipiac rink in this city last night and for a long time discussed the advisability of admitting some of the teams now in the state league that are anxious to gain admittance. Ansonia and South Man chester, through their representatives, for the second time asked for admis- sion into the Southern New England league, but it was the unanimous vote that the league as now composed was a most satisfactory one.

 One of the best teams of the Nation al Polo league will appear at Bowling hall tonight to try conclusions with the boys in blue. The team will be headed by Pierce, who for business reasons found it impossible to play on the New Haven team this year, as had been expected. The crowd will no doubt give him a hearty reception bearing in mind that it was through no fault of the New Haven manage ment, and also through no fault of his own that he does not appear in a blue uniform. The New Haven team will be Bone, Leydon Farrell, Whiting and Lations, with Spencer as substitute. There is large demand for seats, and early application during the day will be necessary in order to prevent dis appointment.

NEW BRITAIN DEFEATS MER1DEN

New Britain, Nov. 1O.-Notwith- standing the heavy downpour of rain New Britain and Meriden attracted nearly 1000 people to the polo game at the rink tonight and the fans" were treated to a slashing game, which was enlivened by an encounter between Captain McGilvray and Half Back Conly of the Meriden team: Conly made his appearance in the second period, and the crowd remembering a row which he started year ago in this city gave his reception which evidently did not please him. After few rushes he got mixed up with Jean, for which Referee Tibbetts call ed a foul on him, and later he and the New Britain captain locked arms and rolled all over the surface. The men were separated before blows were ex- changed and a foul called on each. New Britaiiis' fast work enabled them to play all around Meriden and the fact that the score was not larger is attributed only to Malloy's expert work around goal. Score: New Brit ain, [; Meriden 3. Stops, Malloy fl; Burgess, 36; fouls, Meriden, ?; New Britain, l. Referee, Tibbetts.
