1.-THE UNWRITTEN LAW

An excellent impression has been made by this play which will be pre- sented at Poli's this evening. Since It's first production it has been sue cess and the concensus of opinion of the managers and newspapers have been more than favorable. It tells a story of false friendship and false friends, and will move any audience that has the good fortune to see it. A strong acting cast is headed by Miss Miriam Shelby, one of the strongest of the young leading women. She is tall, stately, and of the pure Spanish type The gowns she will wear in the pro duction are creations of the dressmak- CTS art and will cause many fiuttet- of admiration in the feminine breasts of the audience. Prices are 25, 35 and 50 cents.

THICK FOLIAGE SERVED AS 4 sHIELD/AGAINST FOUL TIPS.
Western Farmer Used Spinach on His Face to Ward Off Injuries and Thus Originated Ball Catch
 er's Protector.

.sUmph!" grunted an Americanleague rooter to a St. Louis Republic reporter, Awhen foul tip caught the Chicago catcher in the wind pad. That guy owes a vote of thanks to the man who invented the chest protector, all right, all right
 You refer to Esau Sampson, sup pose," suggested the man higher up. He didn't exactly invent the chest pro- tector, though. It just came natural with him. Sort of growth. ye might say.
 Tt was back in the early eighties, the year that Bull Thompson, the Light foot Lilies star catcher, got laid up. The. Bull had favorite trick, you re- member, of biting the bat and holding it with his teeth when the batsman drew back to hit the ball. He had 'em all guessing with the stunt, until he tried 1t on the terrible Swede of the Beaver Dam (Wis.) invincibles and got four of his teeth extracted for three base hit.
 For awhile after Bulls accident the Lilies were up against it, and Capt Slugger Burrows was securing the coun- try high and low for some one to fill his shoes.
 Twas down in Minnesota some where, I think, that he finally landed Esau Sampson. At any rate, Esau looked like an orthodox farmer, all right.
 sWhiskers ?o Why say, that mans face looked like an eastern view of the seventh Sutherland sister going west with her hair down. Honest, he had the most fertile face ever trained my lockers on His beard was enough to make the most wayward of swallows homesick to nest again.
 "Did it bother him when he was play ing ball? Never but once. On all other occasions those .whiskers were the greatest help in the world to him.
 You remember what catchers had to stack up against in the foul tip line be- fore the days of the chest protector? If twas nothing worse than the wreck of floating rib or vacuum in the air tank, a backstop could consider himself lucky.
 But that was where Esau used to show up so strong. The ball couldn'.. hurt him. When foul tip shot through

BEAUTY AND TIE BEAST

DEAOI1s ANU 1T1E bEAS l..
 The great Drury Lane spectacle of ssThe Sleeping Beauty and the Beast, !" which is booked for an engagement at Polls next Thursday. Friday and Sat urday, proved to be the greatest spec tacular production ever witnessed in America when it was presented at the Broadway theater, New York, and among the many patrons of the house during it's long run it caused real sensation. The critics fairly raved over the magnificent scenic effects, gorgeous costumes and mechanical ef- fects. It is a conglomeration of ro- mantle drama, spectacular, musical extravaganza and comedy, and the dia- logue and music is bright and catchy. While artistic in every sense, 1t at tracts both the eye and the ear, and caters strongly to the humorous side of human nature by plentiful display of wholesome, comical situations. Tn company and production 1t presents the very best that most prodigaI out lay of money could provide.

Is the Waterbury City Government Run in the Interest of Trusts !?

With the Assessors Department grinding the small and middling prop erty owner to a point of distress. and this reform government now proposes to make the owners of small dwellings set water meters in each house, pay Tor and keep the same in repair, and the city will sell water to the small con-l sumner at high price, and the big con- sumer at low price. If this rule is enforced the city will be compelled to place on the pay roll about 100 meter inspectors. Of course the city will pay for their services first, and the taxpayers afterwards. If this sort of economy is practiced very long you depend upon 1t there will be q day of reckoning for the reformers.

pecially when the new roads laid out in
the past few years are taken into account.
1t will be noted that the new road laid out
to the quarry last year has not been thrown

eethel Granite Finds Favor.

A recent issue OF the Washington, ID. C.,
Star has some interesting matter concern
ing Bethel granite, which seems to stand a
fair chance to be used for the new munici-
pal building to be erected in Washington
at an estimated cost of Il, 100000
The use of Bethel granite for the new
union station at Washington created a
favorable feeling for Bethel granite for
other buildings. The Star states:-
at has been understood that the COM
missioners were rather inclined TO favor
the use of Bethel granite in the municipal
building. This is the stone to be used in
the new union station, and it is regarded
as beautiful building stone BY botn arch
fleets and builders. 1t was feared, how
ever, that the quarry from which the
Bethel granite is to be taken would not be
able to produce in proper time sufficient
stone to build the new union station and
the municipal building.
"Several days ago representative OF the
Hardwick white granite quarry located at
Hardwick, Vermont, submitted to the
commissioners sample Of white granite
almost identical in color and composition
to the Bethel granite. Upon investiga-
tion il was ascertained that the Hsrdwick
quarry is located on the opposite side of
the mountain from the Bethel quarry and
it is presumed that the vein of the two
quarries is the same.
'.The Bethel quarry. il is stated, is a new
one, while the Hardwick quarry has been
in operation for the past thirty years, the
product OF the quarry being used princi-
paiiy for tombstones and mausoleums and
for buildings in the vicinity Of the works.
The proprietors of the quarry declare that
in the event their stone should be selected
for the new municipal building they
would have adequate facilities and equip
ment for taking out in due time an unlim-
tied amount of the stone"
The above is probably mostly true ex-
cept the star seems somewhat mixed in its
geography.
