CHARGES AGAINST LAWYER
BRIDG ATTORNEY IS AC-
 CUSED OF EMBEZZLEMENT

And Forg.ry-satd to Have squandered
 Clients Estate-TrIed to Keep Afion'
 Two Companies In Which He Had Iu-
 vested and Of Which He Was Counsel.
 Bridgeport, Dec. 4.-Charges alleging embezzlement, forgery and perjury have been Sled in the superior court by the grievance committee of the Fairfield County Bar association against Attor- ncy George W. Carey of Stratford, who has been practicing law in this city for past twelve years. MT. Carey is promi- nent in social and church circles in this city and stratford. The charges against him are based on his alleged acts in connection with his position as execu- tor and trustA 3 under the will of the late John w. Ford of Milford, and as conservator over Mrs. Ford. widow of the testator.
 Ford was deaf mute. According to the charges filed in court Ford supposed at the time of his that that his property was worth about SIP, ,000, but it is alleged that Carey, who held power of attorney sor the deaf mute during the latter's life, had squandered for his own use all except $500. Subsequently, it is alleged, the remainder of the estate disappeared.
 The perjury charge is based on the allegation that Carey has filed reports in the probate court indicating that the estate was being administered regular ly, and that he had paid tax bills which it is declared had not been paid.
 As executor. Carey was required to furnish bond of sS,000. It is alleged that he did furnish such a bond, signed by the names of Charles W. Carey and Elizabeth c. Wheeler of Stratford as sureties. and that neither of the per- sons mentioned signed the bond.
 In the probate court at Milford to-day Judge Hepburn held hearing on an application for Carey to appear and show cause why he should not be re- moved as executor and to give an ac- counting of the estate.
 Carey Is thirty-ive years old and married. He is president of the Bridge port Christian Endeavor union and of the Epworth league of the New York East Methodist Episcopal conference. He is also 3 member of the Kings Daughters and Sons Of Stratford, and until recently was treasurer of the Methodist church of stratford. He is said to have resigned the latter position at the request of the pastor, the Rev. Royal w. Raymond
 It Is believed by Carey's friends that the acts complained of are due to ahis efforts toward keeping afioat two com panies in which he had invested and of which he was counsel.

ENTERTAINM ENTS,
Hyperion rhaater

"A Princess of Kensington," which has just completed its New York en- gagement at the Broadway theater, will be brought direct to this city and will be presented at the Hyperion next Tuesday and Wednesday nights and at the Wednesday matinee.
 The piece is a comic opera in two acts, the book by Basil Hood and the music by Edward German. The first act opens in Kensington Gardens and introduces a fairy chorus. Azuriel. a mountain spirit, declares that Prince Albion, who promised to wed Kenna, the daughter of Oberon, one thousand years before, has deceived, and he threatens vengeance. With the assist ance of the fairies Azuriel then goes in search of the f1ckle prince. Azuriel is informed that man, wearing the name of Albion on his cap, is approaching the place. This is William Jeff (James T. Powers), who is a sailor of H. M. S. Albion. The failure Of the fairies to understand the significance of the word Albion" on the sailors cap Is, in a large measure, responsible for the conn., plications that follow. These naturally turn away the course of true love, and many hearts are we'll nigh broken be- fore the blundering fairies get their bearings.
 Musically, "A Princess of Kensing- ton'' is one of the best comic operas of recent years. It harks back to the old regime. There are places so good that one forgets just what is going on-- strains and climaxes strongly sugges- tive of a Wagnerian music drama The supporting company to Mir. Powers con- tains many we1l-known comedians and singers-W. G. Stewart, William Steph- ems, Stanley H. Forde, Walter S. Cra- ven, Jack Taylor, Cecil Englehart Lily Birchem, Amelia Fields, Estelle Ward and Angela May.
