New Haven I'heater.

The Child Wife. which comes to the New Haven theater as the Xmas at traction for three nights and three mat inees, bids fair to excel all former ef- forts of that excellent playwright Charles A. Taylor, who gave us Queen of the Highway, King of the Opium Ring and other big inelodramatic suc- cesses. The Cbild Wife, while a melo- drama, has a large percentage of hufnor and just enough seriousness to throw in a strong contrast between smiles and tears.
 In the first act are seen a score or more of pretty children at school. and they are as natural as one can imag- inc. Then comes the marriage of the school girl to her boy sweetheart, which causes trouble throughout the rest of the play. The marriage is unique in its delicious fun, and invariably brings down the house. Manager William 1T. Keogh has engaged one of the most competent casts ever seen in rnelodra- ma. The entire scenic equipment nee essary is carried by the company in 0pGCldI 9CtI5s s4
 There are enough of exciting scenes to please the most fastidious, especially that showing the interior of dive lo.. cated in the Tenderlon, and the one showing the steamer Priscilla of the Fall River line, passing through Hell Gate. The company. Is said b be conn- posed of especially clever people and is the same as presented the play dur ing it's New York run
 At the matinee on Tuesday Miss Kemper will hold a reception on the stage after the performance to the la dies and children attending. There will be a holiday matinee to-day and the play will be repeated in the evening. Matinees will be given Tuesday and Wednesday as we'll as the evening per- fornances.
 The advance sale indicates big busi- ness. Secure seats at once.

DEEGANfs BIG RECORD.

Rolled s27S at the Sterling House.
 Record breaking has become q1lite common among local bowlers, but on Friday night was the limit. Another record was made for high single by an almost unknown man among local en- thusiasts. Joseph P. Deegan, the State street druggist, rolled PTS, which beats all previous work by ten points. Dee gan rolled three strikes and a spare, then seven more strikes and finished with nine pins, which totalled him 27:3 The official scorer was on the alleys and kept the results in the usual way.
 2 City league men will have to hus- tie now, for 1t will never do to let a man who is not league bowler make such record on the official alleys and hold 1t unchallenged. There will be, some real hustling now for honors.

He has been honored many times during his career, and last June the graduating class of the Hillhouse High school made him a gift of hand some ebony baton, while the class of Boardman school presented to him loving cup.
 For many years Professor Jepson has prepared the chorus of Sunday school and public school children who have taken part in Memorial day exercises. He is a veteran of the Civil war, being Captain of Company K, Tenth regiment Connecticut volunteers, and is an active member of Admiral Foote post, No. r, G. A. R. He is father of Harry B.
