 Among those who will sing in the evening between the Gibson pictures are Miss Elsie Yandell, Miss Katharine Murphy and Mrs. Ida Feuchtwanger Ascher. The evening programme has not yet been quite completed. Tickets for this vaudeville are twenty-five and | fifty cents.
 Quite different will be the evenings l programme the main feature of which | will be the Gibson reproductions for | which prominent young people of New | Haven will pose. As this is the first | time the Gibson pictures have ever been | done in public much interest is being | evinced in their production. Songs l will be interspersed and the remainder | of the programme will be made up of | most attractive things.
 The regular Hyperion prices will pre- vail in the evening, both as to seats and boxes. There is every reason to believe that a very considerable sum will ac- crue from the two entertainments, as the day nurseries are greatly in need of funds. This charity is the most pop ular one in New Haven; therefore the arranged by the Moth- ers Aid society, and for the success of which the society has worked very hard, will surely be we'll patronized. Many babes whose mothers are obliged to go out and work all day for livelihood, are cared for at the two day nurseries, and without the establishment of these useful institutions the children would fare sadly in the heat of summer. Not only are the children cared for in cool, clean wholesome rooms, but they are we'll fed with the most nutritious food and in many instances the babes are clothed With the growth of city nurseries of this kind become more and more a necessity, and the needs of the little households are constantly grow ing.
