Grand Opera House.

Little one-year-old Master George, who is playing the part of ''Marigold's Baby" in Joseph R. Grisn1er's big Sky Farm production, is perhaps the youngest saIaried actor on the stage to- for a great future on the stage, so prophesies Frank Hartwell, who, as Grandfather Breese, unWillingly re- eeives the baby from Marigold in the last act, but the old mans hard nature relents at the soft touch of the baby's fingers and becomes reconciled to his sons marriage to Marigo1d. Hartwell is fond of children and they instinctive- ly know it. At the very first dress re- salearsai of the play baby evidently saw through the ugly, cross makeup, for the little one never hesitated, held out his chubby hands to the stern, grand pore, crowed and laughed just as if he had been told what to do, and from that time on that blessed baby has nev- CT missed his cue at the right moment. He has even introduced new lines not in his part: aDa, da; da, da." Every body on the stage just wcrships Geor- gie and the sWeet-faced little mother who brings him to the theater is very proud of her dariing's success. The big play is now announced for presentation at the Grand Opera house as the Christmas attraction, next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. There will be matinees Christmas day and Saturday. The advance sale of seats is now open and has been large. Secure seats at once and avoid disappointment.

YESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET.

War Cloud in the Far East Has Depress-
 ing Effect.
 New York, Dec. 21.-Whatever influ- ences were in operation in to-day's stock market issued in an almost im- movable market. The whole interest converged in handful of stocks. The merely sentimental effect of the ap- preach of the holidays may be reckoned with to induce part of the dullness. A more substantial factor in to-day's market was the gathering of the war cloud in the far east, which took on so lowering an aspect to-day as to lead to a general conviction in Wall street that an early outbreak of hostilities could not be avoided. The conviction seemed to be without any markedly depressing effect on our securities market, except as Londons more active interest in the situation led to selling of stocks in New York.
 The effect here was more to discour- age operations on either side of the market. That considerable issues of new railroad securities are imminent is the general feeling in Wall street and accounts for the lack of response in to- days stock market to the extraordi- narily large offerings of funds. Money brokers assert that money on call was more freely offered this morning than at any other corresponding period for many years past, All departments of the money market were affected, sixty and ninety-day loans and even thirty day loans being affected at below 6 per cent. Mercantile paper for prime grades also was offered at 51a, thus breaking the 6 per cent. rate which has been de- terminedly held for some time past. There was some heaviness shown by Atchison on the ground of its bond fs- sue, and the small grain movement af- fectef this and other grangers to some extent. The Atchison bond issue also played a part in the sharp upward movement of the railroad equipment stocks, owing to the intimatfon con- veyed in the official announcement of the sale of the Atchison bonds that q part of the proceeds would be used for the purchase of locomotives and new equipment. e- ,t.4s a..5% .,
 The depression of United States Steel preferred was accompanied by further discussion of the dividend prospects for the stock and the expression of discour- aging opinions as to those prospects. There was some accumulation of the coalers attributed to better trade con- ditions. The speculation in the New York public utilities continued without any new features, and Amalgamated, after advancing lightly, reacted sharp iy with the rest of the market. The closing was dull and heavy.
 The bond market was dull and gener~ ally steady, but some of the active is- sues were heavy. Total sales par value $1, ,S6o000.
 United States twos, threes and old fours advanced E per cent. and the new fours declined 4 per cent. on the last call.

Pnii's g'heater.

Large audiences greeted the opening performances of the holiday bill at Polls yesterday. Last night large and enthusiastic audience gave approval to the big array of talent.
 A pleasing announcement was made that all school children paying adr1is- sion to the Thursday matinee will re- ceiye handsome Christmas present from Manager Poli.
 The Fillmore sisters were the feature last evening with their new sketch "The Adventures Of Bedelia." It scored irn- mensely as q feature. The act is in vaudeville for one week only.
 As a special feature Emmett Corrigan and company presented a comedy sketch entitled "The Pot and the Ket- tle,', and this also was one of the big hits of the bill. It tells good story and is very we'll presented.
 One of the biggest hits for a local one is the motion pictures of the big Eagles parade. which show the New Haven delegation in 9 prominent place in it.
 The olio is rich with good acts, and they all have the holiday flavor. The Worlds trio, with good dance and change act; Finlay and Burke, with their stageland satire; Brandow and Wiley, as the eolored artists in a highly entertaining act; the two Lamonts, with their society acrobatic work; the famous Gardiner children and their speciality.

ENTERTAINM ENTS.
HYperlou Theater.

Seats for the four performances of Checkers at the Hyperion, beginning Christmas afternoon, will be placed on sale at the box office this morning. This is one of the most successful plays of the present theatrical season and the indications point to the play scoring in New Haven a triumph equal to that achieved in both New York and Chi cago, where it proved so popular as to break the box office records of the two theaters in which it was produced. The play is a story Of love and luck, and has been described by William c. Whitney as the greatest racing play he has ever seen. There is a sensational scene in the third act representing the betting ring of the Washington Park race track. This has been pronounced superior to any racing scene ever put upon the stage. The company inter- preting the play embraces one hundred and fifty people and is headed by Thomas w. Ross, product of the old Boston Museum company. Prices S1.50, S1 and 75 cents.
 The Office Boy," Frank Daniels great musical comedy success, will come here direct from its three months run at the Victoria theater, New York and will be given at the Hyperion the- ater Tuesday and Wednesday nights, January and 6.

THE rUToHER MURDER.

The murder of Fred Tutcher. a young
man who had a reputation for attend
ing to his own business by two drunken
negroes this week was inhuman and
wholly without justification. The shoot
ing was unprovoked and there wasn't
the least semblance of extenuation.
There was a sentiment among the
people of Topeka favoring the lynching
of the two miserable wretches who per-
petrated the dastardly murder but fort
unately it subsidized without a show of
mob law. A community gains nothing
by taking the law into it's own hands.
1t may result in terrorizing the lawless
element for a time but in the end the
moral effect on the community at large
is demoralizing. There are few people
/ who will say that these men do not de-
serve hanging but meeting one murder
with another would not bring the victim
back to life nor tighten the burden of
grief which the family of the young
man must sustain.
Topeka may congratulate itself that
the danger of a disgraceful lynching has
been averted and that the law is to be
allowed to take its course.
There is another feature in the Tutch-
er murder that may well be considered
1t is the evidence of wantonness among
| young men, white and black that crops
out so often in every community. It is
altogether likely that Mason and De-
/ Moss. when they started out for a
| time" last Sunday. had no thought OF
murder in their minds. Stil1 they were
armed and when an occasion presented
itself they did not hesitate to shoot
down an innocent man. 1t was appar-
emily done in a spirit of wantonness
| which comes from an unnatural and
perverted idea of the purpose of human
life. There are too many young men IL
Topeka who are like Mason and DeMoss
in a greater or less degree.

VOTING MACHINES COMING.

The voting machine is certainly on it's
way to popularity. The machines were
used in the recent municipal election in
Indianapolis and were a pronounced
success. The Journal has the following
to say of their use:
The advantages to be gained are very
obvious. 1t means. in the first place,
practically no disfranchisement,t through
honest mistakes. which is one of the
greatest drawbacks of the Australian
system. There have been numerous
elections, city, county and township, in
Indiana since the adoption of the Aus
tralian law, in which there have been
enough mutilated ballots to have chang
ed the result. had they been counted,
and in all these cases it has been a
question if the will of the majority has
not been defeated through ignorance or
carelessness. With the machine there
can be no ballot vitiated by distin-
gushing marks. and it is mechanically
impossible for the voter to vote for two
candidates for the same office The
very worst he can do is to neglect TO
vote for some candidate he had intend
ed to vote for.
Another advantage lies in a consider
able saving of expense. Not only can
the number of officers REQUIRED to con-
duct precinct polling place be reduc-
ed. but they will draw pay for but one
day instead of for two or three days,
as under the old system. The expenses
of an election are reduced more than
half and in most cases as much as
two-thirds. The machines will pay for
themselves in a very few elections, and
afterwards result in a great saving to
the people, for they should last many
decades with proper care.
But the great advantage, and the one
that should determine the adoption of
voting machines, regardless of expense,
lies in the elimination of fraud they
must work. 1t has been demonstrated
over and over again that it is possible
to beat" the Australian law, and every
election brings the same old charges by
each party that the other is perpetrat-
ing wholesale frauds by the use OF car
bons in envelopes. an exchange ballot or
some other of the numerous means OF
identifying the vote of the purchasable
voter. With the machine there is nc
possible way of doing this. Probably
the commonest method of fraud is by the
purchase of election boards. and there
have been elections in which this was
done on a very large scale. With the
machines there could be no advantage
in this. and it would not be worth while
to corrupt the boards. Furthermore. the
promptness with which the returns ara
made up and brought in is not merely
