Grand Opera House.

"A Milk White Flag" was presented for the first time at popular prices last night at the Grand opera house, and the large audience was highly enter- tained. The piece has been seen here many times, and it is one of the best of Hoyt's plays. This year it is presented by a capable company. The piece IS filed with many pleasing specialties and they were all well rendered last night. The Three Sisters Fanchonetti in their songs and dances are one of the princi- pal acts in the piece. A speciality that was also accorded loud applause was the song and dance act by Little Chip. The cast is a competent one and ln- cludes John Marble, who was in the original cast as the undertaken, and he repeated his former success last night. l. c. Marlowe was most acceptable as the colonel and E. J. Lowell made a good major Miss Mildred Olp was ex- celent as the widow and Miss Amy Fanchonetti was an acceptable daugh- ter of the regiment, Altogether the piece was well presented and 1t will be repeated this afternoon and evening,
 William Gilette's Secret Service,
 which is to be presented at the Grand opera house tomorrow Friday and Sat urday nights, with matinee on Satur- day, with all the original scenery and effects, Is a drama based upon the civil war It's treatment of the little family trouble which the states had from bl to '65 is more in line with tn esprit or forgiye-and -forgetness which has sur yiyed that conflict, and northerners ana southerners seem each equally capaple of getting satisfaction and pleasure from it's representations, With love for his guiding and dominant inspiration, MT. Gillette has written so tender ana winsome story of the siege of Rich- mond that one is in doubt when he tries to tell where history begins and TO- mance leaves off. It is this delightful blending of sentiment and patriotism or fact and fiction that won for Secret Service' it's great metropolitan triumph The Grand opera house was packed to it's utmost capacity when this great play was presented there last season.

 A DETERMINED WOMAN
Finally Found a Food [ hat Cure d Her


 ''When I first read of the remarkable effects of GrapeNuts food I determined to secure some," says Mrs. c, w. Aid ridge, of Salisbury, Mo. At that time my husband ordered some from a Chi cago traveller.
 ''I had been greatly afflicted with sudden attacks of cramps, nausea, and vomiting. Tried all sorts of remedies and physicians, but obtained only tenn porary relief. As soon as I began to use the new food the cramps disappear cd and have never reanneared
 My old attacks of sick stomach were a little slower to yield, but by continuing the food that trobule has disappeared entirely. I am to-day per fectly well, can eat anything and ev- erything I wish, without paying the penalty that I used to. We could not, and would not, keep house without Grape-Nuts.
 My husband was so delighted with the benefits I received that he has been recommending Grape-Nuts to his customers and has built up a very large trade in the food. He sells them by the case to most of the leading phy sicians of the county, who prescribe Grape-Nuts very generally There is some satisfaction in using a really sci entifically prepared food"

GREAT BARGAINS
Offered at the Store of H. B. Armstron

 Offered at the Store of H. B. Armstrong
 & Go.
 By a curious mistake in the cutting room of the H. B. Armstrong & Co., 8 store there are now 300 pairs of pillows that are being sold at just half price, The ticks for these pillows were cut three inches too short, necessitating pecing just that much, so nicely done and matched, though, that no one could tell the difference. These pillows are in the best A c A tick and are well filed They are going at just half price and are going fast. This is a great bargain for those looking for articles in this line.
 It would be hard to find a more com prehensive and well selected stock of up to date wall papers than the H. B. Armstrong & Go. have in their wall paper department. These papers were selected with great care and are the cream of all the leading manufacturers The prices are always right in this es- tablishment, and the New Haven buy CTS find it a pleasure to look over the stock in their store.

ENTERTAINMENTS
IIuns,.inn Theater.

Tonight the Klaw & Erlanger Opera company of 125 persons, with Jerome Sykes as the star, will present for the first time on any stage DeKoven and Smiths new comic opera, Foxy Quill Ter" This organization is the largest in number and strongest in personnel of any that have attempted this form of entertainment. In its all star cast are Aloph Zink. the liliputian comedian; Helen Bertran, Grace Cameron, Geor- gia Caine, Julius Steger, w. G. Stew art, Harry McDonough, Louis Cassa- want and many others. klaW X Erlan- ger have given this work the most mag nificent production that they have. yet offered, either in comic opera or eX- travaganza. Three great and gorgeous scenes will be displayed, all of them of exceeding beauty. Of MT. Dekovens s music it is predicted that his Foxy Quiller" will make even a greater sue cess than that of his famous Robin Hood" It is melodous throughout. It's first act follows carefully the English song movement, and it's last two acts are said to be magnificent illustrations of the best of the Italian school of mu- sic. MT. DeKoven holds that it is quite possible to treat a melody so that it will appeal to the ear of the average theater- goer in manner sufficiently artistic to interest the educated musi- elan, and this he has carried out most successfully in Foxy Quiller.' The Klaw & EIrlanger Opera company also carries its entire orchestra of twenty musicians under the direction of Signor A. DeNorvellis on its tour, so that smooth and perfect performances may be given at all of the points visited by the organization. The production has been staged by Ben Teal, the foremost master of stagecraft in this country The sale of seats indicates the largest houses of the season at the Hyperion
 Prices $1.50, $1 and 75 cents.
 One of the red-fetter events of the present dramatic season will be the en-
 gagement of William Gillette in his new drama entitled sherlock Holmes, " which will be seen at the Hyperion on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, Octo- Der 23 and 24. MT. Gillette's new drama is an unqualified success. It ran for thirty-six weeks last season at the Gar rick theater, New York, to packed houses at each performances Add to this the popularity of MT. Gillette as an actor, and it tells pretty nearly what may be expected of his engagement here. Advance sale of seats opens on Friday. Prices $2, $1.50, $1 and 75 cents.
