swINDLED OUT OF BARRELS.

Slick Sharper Worked a Game Among
Saloon Keepers.
A slick swindler has recently been
plying his business among the saloon
men of New Haven and has met with
considerable success at the expense of
the saloon keepers. The fellow gave
the name of William M. Davis, but it
has been found that he also had aliases.
c.. A. Holbrook and Harrison. 1t seems
that he came to town about two weeks
ago and rented a storeroom at No. 80
Meadow street. He said that he was
a representative of the firm of Harri-
son & Co., cider manufacturers in New
York, and that he was buying up for
that firm cider barrels, which they de-
sired to use as packages for their cider.
He had no difficulty in securing a large
number of barrels, arranging to ex-
change cider for the barrels. He took
the barrels and the cider was to be de-
livered the next week.
The fellow left town suddenly, how
ever, leaving a young wife here and
several debts, among which was the
rent for the storeroom which he used.
1t is needless to say that the saloon
men from whom he had secured bar
rels did not receive the cider. 1t was
found that the young wife which Davis
deserted here he had married in Prov
idence only nine weeks ago under the
name of c.. A. Holbrook.
A telegram was sent to Harrison &
Co. in New York, but the firrs replied
saying that the man was not an au-
thorized representative of the house
The police are now on the lookout fol-
him.

Grand Opera House.
CITY SPORTS, BIG SHOW.


Big business is the rule at the Grand
opera house while Flynn and Sheridans
City Sports are the attraction. The
combination Of pretty girls and compe-
tent speciality artists makes this one
of the best shows ON the road. The
curtain raiser is "A Christening" writ
ten by Phil Sheridan, and from the time
the curtain rises on this until it is final
ly rung down the close attention of the
audience is held.
A strong Ohio is presented, among the
best artists being Smilax and Katbrelle
in a duo, Mr. and Miss Werlich in their
famous equilibrist comedy creation and
William Mazuz and Alkaline Mazett in
1.-THE Tramp and the Brakeman" The
rainbow dance, led by Crissie Sheridan
and assisted by eight beautiful ladies,
introducing the latest Partisan craze,
Les Figures Naturel," causes a sensa-
ton at every performance. Perhaps
the favorite with all the audiences is
Miss Phyllis Ruffell, woman of superb
figure and beautiful face, whose cos
tunes set both off to advantage. The
show closes with an llp-to-date bur-
lesque, In the Tenderloin,' or I'm New
York at Night" during which Ed
Woods, the champion bag puncher of
the world, exhibits his skill.
The show will have two more appear
ances, this afternoon and evening.

1880. "The Serenade" has proved the
biggest success the Bostonians have
enjoyed since robin Hood" 1t has
had long run In New York and has
been equally we'll received on the road.
The audience last evening seemed
greatly pleased with the new work and
it will probably enjoy another tremen-
dous reception this afternoon. The
music is in Victor Herberts best vein
and the ibretto is UP to Harry B.
Smith standard. This is praise or blame
according to ones own taste. All the
old favorites have COON parts-Barna-
bee, Macdonald, Eugene Cowles, Jessie
Bartlett Davis, and the lesser lights.
Alice Nelson's role Is now taken by
Helena Friedrich, who is a young wo-
man of pleasing appearance and has a
light, flexible voice. Miss Frederick
met with great favor and her waltz
song with high D cadenza was encored
three times.
The Hyperion was delightfully."- cool
and comfortable last evening, which
speaks well for its ventilation. "The
Serenade" will be repeated this after
noon and robin Hood" will be sung
tonight.

ton of stars comes direct from Roster

night that Collins. a neighbor. called at the
house and was killed. Garcia. his woman

whisky. After a while Collins left, and
Mrs. Garcia followed him with an az.
When she returned she said the old man
was "a goner." She wanted Pedro to help
her bury him, but when he saw the body he
became afraid and went back to his shack.
Garcia stated in his confession that the
woman's deed was for the purpose Of rob-
