THE VAUDEVILLE PERFORMANCE
At the Hyperion Theater To-Morrow
 Evening.

At the Hyperion Theater To-Morrow
 Evening.
 Many will be surprised when they see the announcement of a vaudeville per- formance in connection with the lily perion theater, which has now for some tint been devoted rather to legitimate comedy than to the variety perform ance.
 Tomorrow night, however she will make her debut in this new line, and in no unworthy manner, as will be easily seen by an inspection of the bill.
 Probably the best known actor in the cast is Harry Lacy, of New Haven, who is we'll known in connection with "The Still Alarm" He will manage the performance and this alone insures it's success.
 Pat Rooney and Emma Francis have long been favorites with New York and New Haven audiences. Indeed, it was only by change that the management was able to procure their services, as they had just returned to New York from Chicago, where they had been prominent members of the ill-fated MT. Bluebeard" company, whose run
  at Chicago ended so disastrously at the Iroquois theater.
 The Six Musical Cutters are well known in New Haven, where they have lately figured as star performers.
 Billy Gould, the monologuist, of the Keith circuit, is celebrated for his cev- CT Representations.
 Fife Fay, late of Weber & Fields, is too we'll known to need introduction here.
 Swan and Bonebra, the athletic clowns, are inimitable and delightful as are also the Nichols sisters, late of Hammerstein's Victoria
 The performance is backed by prom nent members of the junior class, and although it is primarily college affair, coming as it does at promenade time pramises to be a scene of unusual bril- liancy. It is also a public vaudeville performance of the highest class, such SIS New Haven probably has never seen aud will not see again for some time.

RoADMAKERs TO ASSEMBLE.
State Highway Commissioner Macdon- aid Preparing for Their Convention.

State Highway Commissioner Macdon-
 aid Preparing for Their Convention.
 The annual meeting of the American Roadmakers' association will be held at Hartford on February 10 and Il, and a number of New Haven people will at tend as spectators. Arrangements for the meeting have been made by James H. Macdonald, the state highway com missioner. Highway commissioners of several statesc will be present.
 The meeting will be held in the assem- bly, hall of the state capitol. The dele gates will be received by Governor Chamberlain and Mayor Sullivan of Hartford. Papers will be read by diff ferent roadmakers high in the councils of the association, and undoubtedly much of value will be presented for the consideration of the men engaged in looking after the roadwork of the seve- ral states which they represent.
 State Highway Commissioner Mac donald is very prominent in the associ- ation because Connecticut is the only state in the union where absolutely eve ry town within It's borders has had state roads built, and has taken active inter- est in the good roads movement. For that reason this state and it's highway commissioner stand among the leaders if not quite at the head. Massachu- setts. Connecticut, New York and New Jersey have spent over sixteen million dollars on their roads within compar- atively short time, and tine effect in inn proved highways is noticeable. It Is presumed that the experience gained in spending that amount of money is valu- able, and the ones who have superinT tended the work will endeavor to give their associates the benefit of their ex- perience with knotty problems.
 State Highway Commissioner Mac donald is very enthusiastic over the good roads movement, over the fact that he has succeeded in getting every town in the state to take share of the state appropriation, over the improve ments in the roads of the state and over the fact that the roadmakers will be his guests at Hartford next month.

NOTES ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON FOR APRIL 8.
Jesus Visits Tyre and Sidon.
MARK Z: 24-37.)


Golden Text: Without faith it is
impossible to please him. (Hebrews
11:6.)
The Syro-Phoenician Woman.-
The coming of Jesus into the country
round about Tyre and Sidon must
have awakened considerable stir, and
the news of his arrival and the fame
of his miraculous power soon spread
throughout the entire region.
Among those who heard of the
Masters presence was a woman, de-
scribed as ga Canaanite" by Matthew,
and as "a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician,"
by Mark.
Persistent Pleading. - Matthew
tells us hat to the first appeal of
the Syro-Phoenician woman Jesus
answered not a word. But the wo-
man persisted so strongly in her en-
treaty that the disciples begged the
Master to dismiss her from their
presence. Then occurred that brief
but significant colloquy in which
Jesus tests the faith of the suppl
cant to the extreme limit. He tells
her that it is not meet to take the
children's bread and give it to the
DOGS Qiterally the little dogs, mean
ing, not the fierce, ravenous creatures
which roam the streets Oh an ORR
entail city, but rather the little house
dogs, which are the children's pets
and which are allowed to take their
place under the table when the family
are at meals).
The Syro-Phoenician woman quick
ly assents to the statement of Jesus.
and yet in such a way as to claim
for herself and her daughter the
blessing for which she had asked, for
her reply is, "Yea, Lord: even the
dogs under the table eat of the chill
dren's crumbs"
The Reward of Faith.-The test
imposed by Jesus mad fulfilled his
purpose. Jesus seeming reluctance
in granting her request had not al
tered the faith of the suppliant. Sc
without further delay the woman's
request was granted, and upon her
return to her home she found that
her daughter was healed.
Another miracle of healing follow
ed in quick succession upon the incl
dent which has just been related. A
man who was deaf and had an i'm
pediment in his speech was brought
to Jesus. Taking the man aside, the
Master quickly spoke the word that
was needed, and Immediately the
mans ears were opened and his ton
que released from it's infirmity.
The miracles here recorded result
ed in what was practically a new life
both for the child afflicted with an
unclean spirit and the man who was
deaf and dumb. So the Resurrec-
ton of Jesus to us not only
u future resurrection from the
grave, but, if we accept him as our
Lord and Saviour. it brings to us
now a resurrection from spiritual
death into a new life, hid with Christ
in God.

THEY WILL HEAR
EACH OTHER TALK.

st. Petersburg, May 16.-Sir Charles
Hardinge, the new British ambassador
to Russia, arrived in st. Petersburg
to-day. AS soon as the Emperor re-
turns to st. Petersburg Sir Charles
Hardinge will present his credentials
and at the same time deliver a speech
which it is expected will reveal. guard
edly, of course, the object of his mis-
sion.
The authorities here attach consider
able Importance to the prospective
declaration, owing to the ambassador
relations with King Edward. 1t will
be regarded as being as much an ex-
preston Of the views of the King as of
the British government. On his part,
Emperor Nicholas will make a re-
Spouse which will be no less cordial
than the utterance Of the British am
bassador.
In official and diplomatic circles it
is generally known that the establish
ment of better relations between Rus
STA and Great Britain is the object of
Sir Charles Hardinge's mission The
specific purposes, however, are still
yelled, despite the discreet inquiries
made by foreign diplomats of their
British colleagues here.

MAKING A SMALL FARM PAY.
What Pennsylvania Man Has
Done on Fifteen Acres.

What n Pennsylvania Man Has
Done on Fifteen Acres.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Schoeneck, Pa, April 23.-Too many
farmers and others have the erroneous
notion that large farn-one of 100
acres or more-is essential to success
full tilage of the soil here in Eastern
Pennsylvania. Right here in Lancas-
ter county we have an example in
proof of the contrary proposition.
Neither vast and fertile landscapes nor
large and prolific herds of milch cows
are necessary to successful farming
in this section.
e. H. Hertzog, Of this place, with
a farm of only fifteen acres, has am
ply demonstrated that such a little
tract can be made to blossom as the
rose with profitable crops, and that di-
versity is just the thing. He has many
little crops and, of course, many lit
tie profits on each of them.
1t requires close management and
careful utilization of all the facilities
within his reach for a farmer to do so
we'll with a small tract as he has done;
but here is a hint, in the last of his
products, as to how he accomplishes
the trick of making his gem of a
farm not only self-sustaining, but i'm
mensely profitable, considering the in
vestment of labor and money.
Mr.. Hertzog, although a very young
farmer, has within the past year raised
the following crops, and has made them
all pay
941 boxes raspberries q 10c per quart
$50 boxes blackberries a &c a box.
100 boxes huckleberries a 10c a box

$4.5 so for lot.
10 bushels persimmons a SC a box.
40 bushels tomatoes a Soc a bushel.
40 bushels soup and other beans, a
50 a bushel.

Beside these he has sold some milk

trees, 400 peach trees, 40 plum trees,
one acre of raspberries and one-quar-
ter acre of strawberries. Neither has
he devoted all his time to the products
of the soil, for his poultry yards have
also yielded fair returns. He has an
incubator cellar, IA by II feet, with
capacity for 700 eggs, and close to this
is a cold brooder house, So by feet,
and another chicken house 124 feet in
length and 16 feet wide. with a capac-
lty for 500 fowls during the coolest
weather.
CHANGING over his ledger. the fact is
disclosed that there was a net profit
for 1903 of 1888 &c on the poultry bust
ness alone. while the net profit on the
products of the soil amounted to
S740.S4 or a total of $1,279.60, in addi-
tion to his and his family's living.
. And yet Mr.. Hertzog says he does
not spend all his time on this farm
but has leisure moments to read the
daily papers, agricultural journals and
leading magazines of the day. He is
a regular market attendant at Read
ing. where he personally sells all his
farm and poultry products.

SUSTAINED THE RAILROAD.
Cotton Cases Against Texas and Pa
cifc Were Decided.

Washington, May 16.-In two cases
for damages against the Texas and
Pacific Railroad Company for cotton
destroyed by fire during shipment the
Supreme Court of the United States
to-day, in opinions by Justice Nc
Kenna, affirmed the opinions of the
lower courts for the railroad COM
pauy.
The main question involved in each
case was clause in the bill of lading,
exempting the railroad from liabilities
for damages caused by fire. The ef-
feet of this clause was attacked on the
ground that the carrier could not limit
his common law liability without the
consent of the shipper, and the mere
contract of shipment was not such
a consideration; also that there must
be reduced rate as an inducement,
and both the lower and regular rate
submitted to the shipper. The deci-
sion against these contentious was sus-
tanned.
The suits were brought by Henry
Charnock and JoVite eau.
