SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
HEART OF MARYLAND"

David Belascos drama of love and war, "The Heart of Maryland" which comes to the Grand Opera house for four special performances beginning Monday evening next, will beyond per- adventure be greeted by cordial and appreciative audience. Everywhere it has appeared and re-appeared with un- abated popular success. It Is play of human emotions, of the power and courage of woman's love, of the excite ments and clamor of camp and field in warfare, an epitome of the life of men and women of our time as we know them. Any one of it's vividly realistic climaxes, and above all the startling scene in the belfry of the old colonial church tower, would insure the success of an ordinary play. The play comes with all the original effects and 8 com pany specially selected by MT. Belasco. It will be the first time of the play at popular prices.

A LIVELY TIME.

Collision of Teams Near Corner of
 Grand Avenue and State Street.
 Caleb Davis is a colored teamster of 21 Dudley street, Highwood. While driving on Grand avenue yesterday af- ternoon his horse was frightened by a train going through the cut and dash ing over the bridge down to State street ran into team of H. J, On thanks of Hamden. which was hitched to a post in front of ex-Alderman An ton Staub's store and completely de- molished it. MT. Onthank's wagon was a mass of splinters when the run away was stopped, and If his own horse was not hitched up there would have been more interesting proceedings on that thoroughfare. As 1t was On- thanks wagon was the means of pre- venting Davis horse from going through MT Staub's plate glass win dow. Fortunately, however, nobody was hurt, although Davis horse was somewhat cut up about It's forelegs. A case of damages will be the probable result of the runaway.

Grand Oncrn uouse.

Human Hearts" was presented to a large audience at the Grand Opera house last evening. The play is well acted, prettily staged, and in short, given worthy production. Repetition each year has not injured it's hold among theater- goers. The applause and enthusiasm were as spirited as if 1t were the very first time of its pro- duction. The story of the play is a simple one of love and devotion to duty dealing with the life of one Tom Logan, who Is a blacksmith in a small village In the Arkansas Hills. Through the machinations of a scheming villain he Is unjustly accused of a horrible crime, is convicted and sentenced to prison for trem of years, Of course in the end 1t is discovered that Tom is innocent and all his wrongs are lighted The supporting company is competent Frederick Fairbanks was a handsome and sturdy hero. Herbert Bettsr Con- nie Thornton, A. Hilton, May Sargent and Lillian Western in their respect i've parts were satisfactory. H. J. Yor- key, Master Arthur and Amelia Lossee were especially good.

THE CHESHIRE ACADEMY.

The Episcopal Academy of Connecti- cut-Opens Tuesday, September IT. | Principal E. D. Woodbury will begin | the 10Sth year of the Cheshire Academy on Tuesday, the 17th of September, | with the following full and enlarged corps of instructors, all but two of whom were members of the faculty last year: Mathematics and sciences, T. E. Brownlee; Latin and Greek, A. E. Porter; English and mathematics,
 Mrs. T. E. Brownlee; English and
 modern languages, Guy Wheeler Shall lies; Commandant and English, Major c. M. Maxfield; general English, Will liam F. Fanslow; piano, Miss Mary L.. Guilford; violin, c. M. Elliott of New Haven.
 The members of the last graduating class met with the most flattering suc- cess in their final examinations for col
 lege, as also did those of the class of 1902 who took the preliminaries.
 Principal Woodbury has devoted his entire summer to the work of general renovation and putting everything into first class shape, so that the grounds and buildings never looked more invit- ing.
 All friends of the school are delighted with the remarkable growth it has made within the last three or four years and with the hearty and loyal tone pervading the entire body of stu dents. When the new guns and equip- ments were provided last spring 1t was thought there were enough and to spare, but the indications now are that more must be obtained. It is becom- ing doubtful if Horton Hall can hold all the boys next term and MT. Wood- bury is already looking about for out side accommodations in case of an overflow.

NovEr, POWER STORAGE

An interesting little story was told some time ago of some one in the practically waterless parts of Western America, where there is barely suffici- ent water for drinking purposes who proposed to drive, or was actually driv- ing, number of arastras by sand, the latter turning a large overshot wheel, taking the place of water. The in- tention was at first to run the aras- tras by means of large windmill, but the uncertainty of this power finally led to the adoption of the plan mem toned. A windmill still was to form part of the scheme. but 1t was to run q conveyer to carry the sand up to a large elevated tank. From this the sand was to be eventually allowed to run out upon the overshot wheel caus- ing 1t to revolve just as it would under the weight of stream of water, and the sand tank had sufficient storage capacity to insure continuous running of the plant There the tale ended, though few more particulars of the right kind would have given it more likely coloring.-Cassier's Magazine

Rules For Good Eyeslaht.

The following simple rules for the
preservation of the eycsight are
worth remembering: Keep a shade
on your lamp or gas burner. Avoid
all sudden changes between light
and darkness. Never begin to read,
write or sew for several minutes
after coming from darkness into
light. Never read by twilight,
moonlight or any light SO scant that
it requires an effort to discriminate.
Never read or sew directly in
front of the light, window or door.
1t is best to let the light fall from
above, obliquely over the left shoul-
der. Never sleep SO that on first
awakening the eyes shall open on
the light Of window. The moment
you arc instinctively prompted to
rub your eyes that moment stop
using them.
