HAVE FASTIDIOUS HABITS.
Even Decapitation Does Not Prevent Certain Insects from Making
 a Grand Final Toilet.

, It has often been noticed that there nre no animals which are more dainty and fastidious in their personal habits than insects, the extreme Vsfns which the common housefiy takes in attend ing to it's toilet being a good example of this racial characteristic. The dis. covery has now been made that there are certain insects which have such a respect for Mrs. Grundy, and are en- dowed with such an innate love of neat ness and order, that not even death, o1 rather decapitation, can prevent them from making one grand final toilet which is clearly designed to give them sedate and respectable appearance after death.
 Dr. Ballion, skilled entomologist. has discovered this remarka ble fact. says the New York Herald. During one of my recent horseback rides" he says, ''I frequently caught one of those large flies which annoy cattle and horses so much. and I promptly got rid of it by crushing its head. One day instead of throwing the mutilated in. sect away, placed it on the back of my hand and indolently watched it. For some seconds the insect remained mo- tionless, but then. to my unbounded surprise, it moved its front legs for ward to the place where the bead should have been, and, after it had rubbed them nervously together, ap parently in anguish, it began to brush its body and to smooth it's wings with its hind legs. Under the gentle pres. sure of these limbs the body gradually became extended and the extremity curved, while the wings gradually changed their natural position and left the upper part of the body exposed Meanwhile the hind legs continued tc brush each other from time to time Naturally I watched this extra ordin. ary sight with great interest, and, ir order to see the finale. took the insect into my study, where it lived an entire day, spending the time at the ungrate. full task of making its own funeral toilet"

CHAPTER VI.
THE ARTIST.

Sprague was dilettarte in art as he was in life. If he had not been rich, he might perhaps have become a great artist. But, lacking the spur of poverty, he seemed incapable of sustained effort. Occasionally he was seized with frenzy for labor; and, for weeks at a time he would shut himself up in his studio, until he had creditably accomplished some bit of work. But the fever was soon spent, and reaction invariably followed, during which palette and brush were taken up only in dcsuftory fashion. Thus it was that at the age of eight and twenty, Sprague had painted few pictures which had attracted fla vorable attention at the annual exhi- bitions of the Academy of Design, and which the critics had spoken of as 'promising;;" and thus it was that the promise was as yet unfulflled, and that Sprague, though a man of undoubted talent, was not likely ever to rank as a genius in his profession

Theatrical o . Fraternal
LULU CHASER.

Poli's will undoubtedly hold another large and fashionable audience this ev- ening, when pretty Lulu Glaser ap- pears as the star of the new comic opera, Sweet Anne Page" Miss Glaser's four previous appearances in Waterbury were in the capacity or leading lady for Francis Wilson, and great as her success was on these oc- sions, there is no doubt that she will surpaSs all her previous work in the opera in which she is brought before us as a star. The book of sweet Anne Page is by Louis De Lange and Edgar Smith, and the music by w. H. Neidlinger. The opera is in three acts and as many scenes. the action being laid in various parts of Devonshlre, England, just prior to and immediate ly following the landing of William of Orange in the year 1888. As may well be imagined, there are many oppor- tunities for spectacular effects, but Messrs De Lange and Smith have, it is said, treated the subject lightly. The part to be esSayed by Miss Chaser is that of lively little village beauty who insists upon her right to bestoW her hand and heart upon the man of her choice. Half d dozen solos fall to Anne Page, besides the duets, etc, in which she figures. Miss Glaser's supporting company includes the com edians Alexander Clark, William Her man West. Fred Frear and Gilbert Clayton. Arthur Donaldson. Harold Blake, Bertha Ricci. Greta Risley. May GoOch Daisy King. Marquita Dwight. Helen Davidge. Grace Blake. Randolph Curry, Frank Smiley and Thomas Whitbread It is certain to be a fine performance and worthy of q vary large audience. Prices are p, 50, lJ cents. S1 and S1.J0.

"THE CADET GIRL"

''The Cadet Girl" a comedy opera, adapted from the French of Givault and De Cottens, play which has pleased, delighted and entertained large audi ences in Bostcn, New York and Phila
 delphia, was presented for the first time in Waterbury at Polis last even- ing before a large audience. The play was deliberately staged, the costumes were gorgeous, the music catchy, the singing amusingly delightful and the chorus especially entrancing. But even at that the audience did not appear to enthuSe over the production as it has over other operas which have been produced here. Perhaps the majority was little bit disappointed because Dan Daily. the popular fav- orite was not included in the cast, but in the opinion of many his part as Baron Chartreuse was admirably and efficiently filled by Harry Dox. The probability is that, if no announce ment had been made of the substitu
 tion, few in the audience would have perceived it. MT Dox showed through out the play an ability which presages well for the future. His nonchalant, indifferent manner, his dry wit. his ridiculous and absurd propositions made him fayorite with the audi ence. Miss Adele Ritchie as Antoinette, GrinardS wife, IS WlnSOme little sou brette. She has a charming soprano voice and she was heard in several pleasing selections last evening. Her rendition of 'The Special Train" last evening was received with great ap
 plause by the audience. Miss Toby Claude as bewitching, viyacious American girl and Miss Alice Judson as Marguerite. a school girl, were ex- reptionally clever and made hit with The audience Pelopidas, veteran of many wars, and Pope. private secre- kary to the Baron, pleased the audi h1ce with stheir eccentricities.

It revolves about an interesting story, that of the mishaps and troubles that befall the daughter of a wealthy west ern man who has come to Greater New York and drifted into Suicide Hall. Some sensational scenes are introduced apropoS of the young Woman's adven- lures. and with fine scenic effects to enhance the realism these are made exceedingly effective. An excellent company, headed by Miss Lillian Hoff- man, has the play in hand. so that it is pretty certain to provide attractive entertainment.

MANCHESTER'S CRACKER JACKS.

Brown and Marsh, who appear with Bobby Manchester's Cracker Jacks at Polls on Friday and Saturday. were one of the wonders of the Paris expo sition. where they astounded all vis- itors with their wonderful leaping and vaulting. During their entire time there and since coming to this country two weeks ago they have had stand ing challenge of $1,0OO to met all con- CTS in competition. and while none have dared to pick up the challenge. it shows how confident they are of being able to defeat any one in their line. This is but one feature, however, of the Cracker Jacks show, there being many other attractive novelties on the bill. A special matinee will be given on Saturday at which bargain prices will prevail.

The men were forced TO trees six
miles on air line from the starting

Expecting longer warning from the
dogs bays and almost exhausted by
fatigue and heat, Wilson and Ward had
to sit down to cool in the shade. The
rest came near being fatal. The dogs
were barking low and were almost up
on their quarry when the latter real

trees and got out Of harms way just In
time. The maddened brutes jumped
vioiously. The quarry were given over
two hours start.
