MRS. MARLN'S PLAY.

 Haven Woman.

A Clever Comedy Written by New
 Haven Woman.
 Mrs Jane Marlin of this city, whose many novelettes and magazine articles are fast gaining for her a high reputa- tion in current literary circles, is now among the successful writers of short plays whose work is very much in de- mand. One of her most successful cf- forts in this line is little play called "A Brace of Woodcock," that she wrote specially for Miss Leslie Palmer and two young men known as "The Bigeow Twins.' The twins resemble each oth- CT so closely that their mother forgot which was which years ago, and it is impossible for a stranger to tell them apart. With this point in view Mrs. Marlin has constructed a most amusing little play which develops many laugh able situations due to the identical ap- pearance of the twins. New Haven friends of Mrs. Marlin will be able to see this play next week, for 1t is now in the Keith circuit and is engaged for Polls beginning next Monday.

 Concerning the sale at auction of the New Haven Steam Sawmill plant to the New.

The reorganization will be at once made and there will be no Interruption to the bus mess of the plant. Besides the Trust company there were no other bidders at the auction.
 The late Isaac Anderson was the first receiver of the company and he was succeeded by Geo. B. Martin, who held the office up to the time it was sold. The sale was from the order of the su- perior court which was passed on Sep- tember 29, 1899.
