"A HOT OLD TIME"

Waterbury show-goers have never laughed more than when they were witnessing the Rays performance of "A Hot Old Time" and they will wei come its return engagement which opens at Poli's this evening for the re- mainder of the week, with a special matinee on Saturday. It is not neces- sary to describe the funny experiences of Larry Mooney, for local show w-goers have laughed at them so often as to have become entirely familiar with them; it is only necessary to say that a surprise awaits them when they see the eccentric Larry during this engage ment. And they will enjoy the jolly old farce quite as much as ever, the changes that have been made this sea- son in no way lessening it's value as a fun-making vehicle. Prices are popu- lar.

WHEAT THR LADY SAID.

It Astonished the Postmaster of New
 York -Reticent Business Man.
 Postmaster Van Cott's telephone bell tangled the other day, and mans voice at the other end of the wire com plained to the postmaster that a letter mailed the day before hadn't been de- hvered. It was sent from the lower Broadway district and was addressed to woman on the upper west side, the complainant said. He mentioned the place and exact time of mailing, but he wouldn't give bis own or the addressee's place of residence. He was a business man, he said. and it would not do. Besides, the lady wouldn't like it.
 Well, I'd like to help you" said Mir Van Cott, '1but I don't see how we can do anything unless we know the names"
 'All right" replied the voice, cheer fully, ''sorry to have troubled you" And MT Van Oott hung up the receiv- CT with a remark to the effect that there seemed to be few lunatics still doing business at the old stand.
 Late the same afternoon the post master responded to another telephone call. The voice this time was wo- mans. A letter had been lost and wouldn't the postmaster please find fl for her? Then the voice mentioned the same time and place of mailing that the earlier complainant had.
 Certainly, madam" replied the post master in his sweetest tones. eff yor will tell me your name I'll do the best to see that the letter is found and sent | to you"
 The postmaster received d reply that almost caused him to drop the receiv' l CT.
 What's that? Whats that?" he 6e. manded.

The Extra Session.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-There is probability that the Cuban reciproc- ity treaty will be taken up at the extra session of the senate in advance of the Panama canal treaty, but the order of business will not be determined for 8 day or two. When the senate goes into executive session today, the treaties will be referred to the committee on foreign relations, proceeding which is made necessary by the expiration of the old congress and the opening of the new.
 It Is the desire of Senator Cullom, chairman of the committee, to have the senate dispose of as many as possible of the pending treaties. These include not only the Panama and Cuban trea- ties, but extradition treaties with Mex leo and Guatemala, the reciprocity trea- ties and also some others of minor i'm portance. It is generally believed that the called session will continue for two or three weeks.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES

Fun moves fast at the Jacques this week, there being enough comedy acts nicely blended with novelty to keep the audiences amused as much as they are surprised. Every comedy act has its amusing character from Uncle Phineas, as played by MT and Mrs Al fred Kelley and Fun in a Mushroom" as shown by Harding and An Sid to ''The Wrong -1an" as exemplihed by Fry and Fields. This latter is quaint ly conceived sketch in which a vet erinary who is called to attend sick horse is mistaken by the lady for a regular physician that is expected. The confusion of remedies that results from the mutual mistake is excruciat- ingly funny, and the dialogue that en- sues between the two is full of wit and humor. This is accented when Miss Fields, who is known as the best lady wing dancer on the American stage, shows her art, and MT Frey gives a Jewish buck dance that is side-split- ting, Indeed, so funny is the finale that the audiences are never satisf1ed unless the pair return again and again to bowtheir acknowledgements and crack a few jokes It is singularly bright act and sets the pace for very nne comedy and novelty show. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents.

BRITISH ARMY sNoBss

There is a certain type of British officer that is among the British army's worst enemies. We, mean the officer who has gone into the army mainly be- cause the kings commission is regard cd as a hallmark of "smartness'' and social standing. When, to the credit of the military authorities, sundry vol unteers, colonials and others who had distinguished themselves in the war, were raised from the ranks and given commissions in the regular army, the reception they would meet from these snobs might have been anticipated. As will be seen from our news columns to-day. what was expected has hap pened. The men who have become off, cers through sheer merit are. In case after case, being snubbed and tabooed and rendered as uncomfortable as pos sible by men who are officers solely thanks to their money. As we have said. this is pefectly natural, as well as perfectly inexcusable and intolera- hIe. It is a very unpleasant thin eSd of the wedge, from the point of view af officers of this end, that brains should invade what lAey would like to keep as close preserve of money; that renuine smartneSs as a soldier should challenge comparison with the other sort of smartness. Also, the newcom- CTS have been introduced not only to reward their own merits and to secure valuable men, but as an example and stiffening for others. On every ground the wrong class of officer naturally re- sents their appearance; and at messes where excIusiveness is preferred to eff fieiency the social boycott was to be eeckoned upon.--London Express.

0USTED.


At the recent meeting held in Mil
waukee by the board of control of the
Wisconsin Interseholastic Athletic as
sociation ne board excluded from the
association the Milwaukee Academy
and Racine college. Now comes
the teachers of the former school
in a severe criticism of the ac-
ton. Prof. G. c. Parlin, of this
city, president of the board, comes in
fer the major share of the criticism as
they assume it is spite work or his part
In 1891, at the contest held at Madi-
son, Wausau athletes would have won
first place but for what was apparently
deliberate piece of unsportsmanlike
work on the part of one of the academy
men La the bicycle race Werlich, of
WauSau, was pushed over and of course
lost the race There was but few
points difference in the teams standing
al the conclusion of the meet, though
bad the race been given to Wausau,
this eity's team would have been forced
to surrender its position by the action
If the board later in throwing out a
Janesyille spriuter, which would have
placed Madison above Waasau. The
Milwaukee men claim that it WAS in a
spirit of revenge that the recent action
was taken, but the facts are otherwise
For some years the board has been con-
sideriDg taking the step of barring out
academies and schools of like character
from high school contests for this
reason
In high school when student is
behind in his studies he is dropped to a
lower grade aud removed from the
team, no matter how good he may be in
some line Of athletics. and all of these
students are residents of the home cities
The other class of schools, however, are
of a different character aud may have
students from neighboring states. and
the student who lags in his studies dare
not be dropped for he is paying his
tuition, which keeps up the school.
They may keep athletes on their teams
for their athletic abilities only, as do
some colleges, and thus is apparent
that there is an inequality ia such con
tests. and the high schools are the
losers The matter of dropping these
schools from the association was to
have been brought up year ago, bat
the session being short. nothing was
done. OF course the Milwaukee people
do not see the matter in the right light.
nor do they care to. but if they take
time to fully Investigate they will be
compelled to absolve Mr. Parlin from
all blame in the scsioa.

cheap and good for light colds perhaps,
but for severe Coughs. Bronchitis,
