inches in diameter and of roundish
oblate shape, as shown in the accom-
panying illustration. The color is a
clear waxen yellow, with a surface as
smooth as that of a tomato. The flavor
is very mild and one of the specimens
was eaten raw with almost as much
relish as if it were an apple. Mr.. Bur-
bank writes that it twill cook tender
in three minutes" which appears to be
likely so, judging from the character Of
the specimens examined. He says that
this seems to be even better than the
other ounces which he has formerly
originated, and some of which are now
in the nurseries for sale. He also states
that it is very productive and that the
tree is thrifty and healthy in character.
It is doubtless well worthy of general
trial, but the trees are not yet offered
for sale.-Orange Judd Farmer.

Plants in the Cellar.

Plants are placed in the cellar to rest,
not to grow. Nothing is more harmful
to them when thus stored away than
water, and it should never be given I'M
less to keep the soil from becoming
dust dry. In early spring, if the buds
on the plants are seen to be starting a
little, do not give water, which would
only favor their growth, but keep as
dry and cool as possible until time to
take them out of the cellar.-Vick' S

Hints About ADDle Trees.

Apple trees should, if convenient. be
planted on land that slopes to the north
and east. If the land is not very rich,
the holes should be made extra large
and quantity of fine, rich soil put in
both before and after the tree is placed
in position, but do not use any manure
when setting the trees. lamp the soil
firmly upon the roots; if left lying loose
and coarse, it will dry out and the tree
will often starve to death.-Farmers'

TERRAcING AssANk.5'

How to Bring 1t in Harmony with
Its Surroundings.
A high bank frequently presents itself
and calls for some kind of treatment
that shall bring it into harmony with
it's surroundings. Now a great many
people make use of double terrace in
d case like this. To the writer's eye a
double terrace is an abomination in the
sight of good landscape gardening.
Such work looks too much like the base
of monument to be suitable for the
lawn. Two terraces may, of course, be

REVIVAL SERVICES

At the Howard Avenue Baptist Church.
 The revival service at the Howard avenue Baptist church partook last night of a varied character. A fifteen minutes praise service opened the meeting, led by w. IT. Spear and fol- lowing this fifteen minutes service of prayer was conducted under the leadership of the pastor, Rev. D. w. Stoddard. Then MT. Spear took up the Scripture reading and gave a short Bible talk on the man who had made his dwelling among the tombs and was possessed with a devil. MT. Spear drew some striking lessons from this text:
 Following Mr. Spear, Mr. Foster spoke in an easy conversational way. It was not a sermon such as is usually preached by preachers, but a message so gracious, so tenderly and sweetly given it's results can but be blessed of God to all who heard it. He spoke from the text Lord is it l. and after pie turing the supper of the Lord, at which those words were spoken and the posi- tion of the disciples and of Judas at tne taDle, Ine speaker portrayed most wildly the bearing of the message up- on the inner life of the Christian church to-day, and after pointing out some of the ways in which Christians betray Christ, he urged each one to take the message to themselves and in the language of the disciples of old, in- quire of their own hearts Lord is is F" He urged the importance of church members standing by their own church and its various meetings. De- sertion of these meetings is betrayal of Christ. He urged them to become united in heart and in Christian effort for one object, the upbuilding of Christ's kingdom. The house was crowded and deep interest pervaded the entire meeting.

 The week is closing with continued big houses at the Wonderland. s. R. o. signs are the rule shortly after the show starts, afternoon and evening, and the approval of the bill Is general and emphatic. Always more than moneys worth is the return for a Won derland ticket, and the people know this so well that they keep up their generous patronage.

DIR. WURTH's OPINION
Of the New Discovery in Medi-
 cine.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy for Dyspepsia. Indigestion and Stomach Troubles.

J
 for Dyspepsia. Indigestion and
 Stomach Troubles.
 Dr. Wurth, in commenting on recent discoveries in medicine, said: There is none which is certain to be so valuable and far reaching In benefit as Stuart S Dyspepsia Tablets, the new stomach remedy; l say far reaching, because people little realize how important a sound stomach and vigorous digestion is to every man, woman and child.
 Indigestion is the starting point of consumption, heart disease, Bright's disease, diabetes, nervous prostration, liver troubles; why Is this so? Simply because every nerve, muscle and tissue in our bodies is created and nourished from the food we eat. If that food is, by reason of weak stomach, com pelled to lie for hours, sour, ferment- ing mass of half digested food, it poi sons the blood and nervous system, creates gas which dlstends the stomach and bowels, causing pressure on the heart, lungs and other organs, and se- riously impeding their action. He says, further, the point to direct
 
 nor lungs nor kidneys, but the stom- ach, the first cause of all the mischief. The remedy to use for indigestion and weak stomachs is not some cathar- tic, but remedy which will digest the food, increase the flow of gastric juice, absorb the gases, and Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets will accomplish exactly this result in any case of stomach trouble, because these tablets are composed of the digestive acids, aseptic pepsin, Golden Seal and Bismuth, pleasant to taste, and not being patent medicine can be used by anyone with perfect safety. I believe Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will cure any form of indiges- tion and stomach trouble, except can- cer of stomach.
 Full size packages of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets are sold by druggists at 50 cents. A book on stomach diseases together with thousands of testimoni- als will be sent by addressing Stuart | Co.,, Marshall, Mich.

ing mechanical effects, would still be an interesting and absorbing play. With the extraordinary stage setting it has received-the accessories of spirit ed, finely trained horses large pack of fox hounds, elaborate and pretty scene pieces, brilliant costumes and and startle-with all these, it becomes a performance at once rare, ingenious, fascinating and keenly enjoyable. It has, moreover, what is not considered necessary in too many so-called melo- dramas of the present day-acting. It is in fact a mammoth, stirring, prodig- ious production in every sense of the word. The hunting scene when the stage was crowded with horses and hounds, the most novel and exciting scene of broadsword combat on horseback Gin which most realistic fall from a horse is executed by the vanquished trooper), and the annihila- tion of everything on the stage after the explosion in the fourt act-all were efforts of stage realism and mechanism such as have seldom been equalled in this or any other city. The cast is large one and is headed by Ross D. O'Neal and Alice Irving, both being most excellent in the parts they DOT tray. Others who deserve mention are c. J. Williams, J. Palmer Collins, Elnor Hale and Gus Mortimer. The Grand should be packed to the doors at every performance during this engagement, which is for the balance of the week, with matinees to-day and tomorrow. Prices Matinee, 10c, 15c, 25c; night, 10c, 200, BOG and 50c.

THE HENSCHEL RECITAL.

The musical recital of MT. and Mrs. George Henshel to be given in the New Haven Colony Historical society build- ing tomorrow evening will be one of the finest entertainments of the kind ever presented in New Haven. The New York Tribune speaks of the Hen Schels as follows:
 So far as the purely artistic achieve ments went, all the days doings were dwarfed by the recital of the gifted couple that warmed the hearts of a numerous and cultured gathering in the afternoon. MT. and Mrs. Henschel have been faithful in their visits for years, and it is plainly no part of their purpose to extend public knowledge of song literature to any marked extent; but their art is so exquisite, so unique in fact, in it's finish, that there can be no fear that any sincere and intelligent music-lover of this generation will think their mission fulfilled"

ENTERTAINMENTS F
Hyperion Theater. JACK AND THE BEANSTALK." :"

Little Jack Horner
 Sat in a corner
 Eating Christmas pie.
 He put in his thumb,
 Pulled out S2 bill,
 And said, Am I in 1t?
 1 guess yes, hi, hi.'
 A crowded house was the state of af- fairs at the Hyperion last night when Jack and the Beanstalk' was again presented in excellent style. The pre- formance will be repeated this evening. Tomorrow will be Waterbury and
 Berkshire division day, when a spec
 ial matinee will be given. The Water bury Thirteen club will attend this per-
 formance tomorrow and there will be
 a large delegation present from Wa terbury, Meriden, Bridgeport, Derby,
 Ansonia and other towns. Orders are
 rapidly coming in from these places. A
 bewildering presentation of gorgeous stage pictures, a continuous flow of fun, a succession of catchy airs and pleasing music go to make up the per- formance It has no story. It needs
 none. The good old nursery rhymes take on a new interest and are set in surroundings of splendor. Walter AL len as "Old King Cole, the merry old soul" and Harry Kelley as "Sinbad the Sailor" are a show in themselves. Nellie Lynch as Little Miss Muffet,
 who sat on the Tuffet," scored a pro- | nounced success and exhibited in the | last act her remarkable ability to lose absolute control of every muscle. | Madge Leasing was courtly attractive and an ideal lover as Jack Hubbard" and Ross Snow was funny indeed as | the Queen Dowager of the Fairies. | Daniel Baker was the Little Old Wo-
 man who lived in a shoe, and Henry E. | Morse played the Giant. Both were excellent. It is difficult to accord to | any one of the dances the prominence, | but the fairy dance in the first act
 was thing of beauty, and another in
 the last act in which the fairies were literally clothed in electric lights, dem | onstrated that wonders of beauty elec- | tricity may be made to produce upon l the stage Of the scenic effects, the
 finale of the second act "The Giants Cliff and Jacks Beanstalk," was in- deed a thing of beauty. Sale of seats
 open for all the performances. Prices | $1, 75c, soc. Prices for matinee same

 The front door was pried open and the men were evidently about to force an entrance into the inner office when Dr. Maloney, who lives over the office heard them and rapped on the floor.
 He then opened the window and saw two men run away.
