NATIONAL LEAGUE.
THE SAVIN ROCK THEATER

! Opened in a Blaze of Glory Last
Night.
| The new summer theater at Savin
Rock was formally opened to the pub
lie last night. To say that the theater
opened in blaze of glory would be to
put it mildly The house was crowded
and many we'll known citizens and res
idents of New Haven occupied the box
es. One feature especially noticeable
was the large attendance of women,
many of whom, Notwithstanding the
GOODNESS Of the atmosphere, We're gown
ed in summer attire and looked charm
ing in their dresses of various, hues,
which contrasted beautifully with the
interior surroundings of the theater If
the attendance last night is to be taken
as criterion of what may be expected
during the season-and there is no rea-
son to think otherwise--then tn esuc-
cess Of the theater is assured, and the
Winchester Avenue Railroad company
is to be congratulated on providing such
place of amusement for the people of
New Haven and vicinity to enjoy them
selves during the coming heated and
trying summer months.
James A. Blake, the well known the
atrical manager, who has been appoint
ed to take charge of the house is the
right man in the right place and he
made a decided hit for popularity in
New Haven when he presented Cor
mans international Vaudeville cOmpa-
ny as the opening attraction. The ar
fists are all stars in their various lines,
and from the generous applause be-
slowed on each and all Of the company
there is every reason to believe that
crowded houses will greet their appear
ance at every afternoon and evening
performance during the week. Certain
ly no one who enjoys a good all-around
vaudeville programme should miss pay
ing visit to Savin Rock during the
week The price of admission has been
placed within the reach of all, viz. ten
cents including a seat, whiue cosy re-
served chairs can be had for twenty
cents Boxes suitable for companies Of
from four to eight can be secured for
the reasonable sums of 81 to 50 a box
John T. Hendricks, treasurer Of the
Grand opera house for several seasons,

feature Of the day took place. In line
We're 1000 men from the North Allan

RUSSELL'S RIDE.

He Failed to Beat Curtis Time for
Distance.
Meriden, Conn, June 1S.-While Ber-
tram e. Russell a Springfield rider,
rode from New York to Boston yester-
day in twenty hours and three minutes,
thereby establishing new record from
a Century Road club official standpoint,
he failed by considerable to equal the
fine record of A. M. Curtis of this city,
who, two years ago, rode from New
York to Boston In eighteen hours and
thirty-four minutes.
Curtis never had his record officially
recorded for the reason that the Centu-
ry Road club folks wanted SIS for a re-
cording fee. Casey, Worcester man,
has also beaten the time made by Rus
sell yesterday.
Russell was paced from New Haven
to Berlin by Meriden Wheel club riders.
