RED CROSS MAY pIsBAND.

. Los ANGELES, April 1.-The Red
Cross Society Headquarters will, owing TO
much dissatisfaction, close on Tuesday
A meeting to canvass the situation will be
held on that day. Many members of the
board are displeased that money donated
for Red Cross purposes is used to pay
current expenses when the soldiers needs
have been met. The paying of clerk hire
and other expenses from the general fund
when no money is coming in has given
rise to severe criticism from those who
have donated literally. 1t is stated that
when General Shafter came here the
money expended for the Red Cross part
in the entertainment, including costly
flowers and yards of elegant ribbon TO tie
them with, came from the society treas

DEATH OF GEORGE 1T. BUTRxCKs.
Occurred from Neuralgia of the Heart Yesterday,

l George Henry Butricks an old and respected citizen of New Haven, died yesterday forenoon at his home, No. 35C Columbus avenue. MT. Butricks was taken suddenly i'll Sunday evening and grew rapidly worse, suffering great pain, until death occurred from neural gia of the heart. He was in his seven- | tieth year, having been born on Septem- Der 30, 1929. In his younger days he learned the printers trade in the Jour- nal and Courier office. For a time af- ter leaving the trade, he worked in a job printing office in Hartford. Late in the forties he returned to New Haven and learned the drug business at A. F. Woods drug store, remaining there three years. In 1852 MT. Butricks opened drug store on West Water street on the "Dike" After number of years he removed his store to How
 ard avenue where he remained In busi- ness until he retired from active busi- ness life in 1895.
 He was one of the original members of the Howard avenue Congregational church and was a member of City lodge, I. o. O. F. He was also, one of the leading members of the old Quinnipiacl1 Debating club of years ago, which met weekly for long period In Lego's hall on the "Dike," of which many men since prominent in this city such as General E. s. Greeley, Judge R. S. Pickett, Frederick A. Willoughby (now of Chicago), the late E. Wallace Black man, the attorney; Captain Dewitt c. Sprague. now of Washington, D. C.; George w. Minor, now of Boston, and Alfred w. Minor of this city were mem- bers. Our townsman, Captain M. A. Butricks of the United States postal service, a brother of the deceased, was also member. George H. Butricks was a most estimable man, well read and in formed, learned in good works, a genial companion and most excellent citizen. His death will be greatly mourned by his many friends. His wife, two daugh- ters and one son surv1ve him. The daughters are Mrs. Countryman, wife Of Rev. Frank Countryman of North Branford; Mrs. Frank B. Gilbert of Wallingford. The son is Wallace But ricks, member of the California heavy artillery, stationed in the Philippines. The arrangements for the funeral have not yet been completed.

Polls Wonderland Thenter.

A big Monday night audience greeted Manager Polls show with enthusiasm. The bill is very good, indeed with an imported feature in the leading acts, being a novel and remarkable eXhibi- tion of athletic feats by the Brothers Damn of Berlin. Their act is full of daring and rapid achievements that are done with the greatest ease. James B.. and Fannie Donovan, the merriest pair imaginable, kept the house in roars with their Irish sketch. MT. DonOvan's S brogue is the genuine thing, his wit is spontaneous and natural, and Mrs. Don- ovan is a capital partner, singing and responding in the rapid sallies of repar- tee with apt promptness. The biograph is particularly good this week, the pie lures of the Manhattan Elevated road and the humorous picture "The Trip let's" making a big hit. Tony Farrell and his company have an excellent one act comedy in Sophie T." Eva Will Hams and Jack Tucker are great suc- cess with "Skinny's Finish a comic sketch full of specialties. Hal Merritt is wonderful whistler, mimic and pam tomime comedian. Others in the bill are Mcguire and Mccarthy and Will Hams and Melburn. Prices 10 cents and 20 cents; ladies in the afternoon 10 cents.

The Extra Concert Which Comes in the
 EYentMg nj the LHYperiOn.

The management Of the New Haven Symphony orchestra has arranged to given an extra concert this season, it being the request of many of our local people to have an opportunity of hear ing the orchestra in an evening per- formance, as a great many business men find it inconvenient to attend the concerts in the afternoon.
 Professor H. W. Parker has arranged an exceedingly interesting programme for this concert. The soloists are of re- nowned reputation. Mme. SZumowska- Adamowski comes from Boston, where she now resides, with the reputation of being one of the leading pianists in this country. She has studied with Pader- ewski, and is well known by the New Haven public Her husband, T. Adam owski is to play suite for the violon- cello, accompanied by the orchestra. This will be the first time that this suite will be heard in America.
 Professor Parker has written an or chestra ballad, "A Northern Romance opus 46 which will be heard for the first time, as he only recently finished this composition. It is entirely modern and will be quite an interesting number of the programme
 Sale of seats for this concert opens Friday morning, 3 o'clock at the Fly perion box office, and it is hoped that there will be large attendance, so as to encourage the management of the orchestra that the people of New Haven are desirous of supporting this organi- zation. The concerts have been well attended this season, but on account of the orchestra's being self-supporting without any guaranty fund. there has not been sufficient income to defray all expenses in such a way as to give ar tistic performances such as the public of New Haven are accustomed to hear ins,

The book of the opera also is interesting and entertain ing and is by Harry B.
