many is trying to secure the services
Of w. K. Vanderbilt for the international
automobile race this year. This Is a great
compliment to America, If true. Last
year, it will be ! remembered, Foxhall
Keene drove a German. car in the race.
and it is said that he had victory in his
grasp but for an accident. Up to date
the Americans have not been able to build
racers which would compete in long dis
lance events with European machines. INT
the skill and daring Of the Yankee drivers
are recognized everywhere. To win an au-
tomobile race In which the best chauf-
feurs in the world are competing requires
more than mere skill and nerve. It takes
quickness Of thought, accurate judgment
and quick action. In an emergency the
mind must grasp the situation and formu-
late course of action, and the. hand
must act. all in a fraction of a second.
This is just the quality in which Ameri-
cans excel.
HE Minneapolis baseball club has done
enough already to demonstrate that
it deserves the support Of every, fan In
the city. It bears all the earmarks of
a winning team, and has shown that It
will play fast, clean, heady baseball from
now until the end Of the season. 1t may
not win the pennant, but 1t will certain
" be in the first division, and has as good
a chance as any for the rag. The press in
the various towns which compose the Cir
cult is unanimous in picking the millers
as dangerous team, partly on account of
the strength shown already, and partly
because of the well-known ability Of Man
ager Watkins and Captain Fox. The open
ing game at Nicollet park Wednesday
should bring out record breaking at
tendance, for there is no city Of It's size
In the country that is quicker to pay
tribute to good baseball than Minneapo-
lis. $3.50 Z.

THE practice Of padding baseball

critic. IT was confined to no one city

no intention to single out any partic-

OAKVlLLE HAPPENINGS

Thomas F. Kelley, son of MT and Mrs Timothy Kelly, ST, died of con- sumption in his 47th year, at his home on Main street yesterday afternoon, shortly before o'clock, after finger ing illness Of several months. Though he was hardly expected ever to get well again, his death, coming suddenly as 1t did, was quite a surprise to all who knew; him. Only a day or two before he died MT Kelly was seen out on the street, and he was preparing to go out again when a sudden change for the worse set ill. He was not keep ing the bed and had the full use of ---s mental faculties until the last moment. His death was very peaceful one, without an apparent increase of pain. Father Traynor paid him visit that same noon. Mir Kelly came back to Oakville from Derby, where he re- sided for seventeen years about two years ago. Since then, during the time MT Kelly felt able. he was employed as foreman in the packing room at the local pin factory. MT Kelly was 9 man of very eshmable character. Be sides & wife and son the deceased leaves behind his father and mother, three brothers and two sisters, all or this village. The funeral will take place Monday morning. from his late home. A mass of requiem will be eel ebrated at St Mary Magdalene's church, Oakville, after. which his re- mains will be taken to Derby on the 1O:52 train from Waterbury for inter- ment. ys
 The employees of the Oakvi1Ie com pany have formed a mutual aid sOci- ety for the benefit of those of it's mem bers who fall sick and become unable to work. The following officers have been elected: President, Walter D. Place; vice-president, George H. Bo- den; treasurer, George Roberts; secre- tary, Charles Davis.

usuTHIrry anu aun1msrrarfvs entity or China that China may be free from disturbances and foreign interests there from menace"
 This is the substance of note ad- dressed by Secretary Hay on Feb. 10 to the St. Petersburg and Tokyo gov ernments. On Feb. 8 in note to Ger many, Great Britain and France MT. Hay invited those powers concurrently to address Russia and Japan with the same suggestion, and on Feb. ii this invitation was extended to Italy, Aus tria- Hungary, the Netherlands, Den- mark, Spain and Belgium.
 Germany was the first to respond, with prompt acceptance of the invi- tation and the promise that she imme- diately would address the two combat ants. g.
 Great Britain was heard from next, expressing adherence to the principle laid down in the note, but withholding formal acceptance pending an answer to an inquiry whether the "adminis- trative entity' of China involved Man. churia. Japan was heard from quickly, WAIA eAc aASNELa eAaI SAc WouA0 oSs readily on the suggestion of the Unit ed States if similar promise cou be obtained from Russia. -.- 2
 Italy, Austria, Hungary and the Neth- erlands expressed sympathy with the idea and promised an answer after con- sultation with other powers. There is reason to believe that Spain and Bel. gium also will accept the invitation. Russia thus far has. been silent, and the attitude of France Is one of indeci- sion. =
 This is the situation. Meantime it is learned that Germany is addressing the combatants with note in sub- stance the same as that of Secretary Hay.

t VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 To succeed Frank Keenan and the other clever funmakers who make their last appearance at the Jacques this evening, Manager Poli has secured Tom Nawn and company ill Pat and the Geni," regarded by managers as the most popular and acceptable Irish act on the vaudeville stage. It Is a nota- ble fact that in time when Irish acts are more Or less feared by managers because of the possible offense they may give, Mir NaWn's sketch is in never varying demand and engage mentS have to be made far in advance in order to secure 1t. The sketch has been played steadily now for five years, repeating at least three times every year in the Keith houses, and managers will not permit the Nawns to get away from it for a new act. Nothing that might be said in the premises could give better concep- tion than this of the act, and while this is MT NaWn's first appearance in Waterbury, there is little doubt that he will be a much talked about actor before the second presentation of the sketch. Comedy is the prevailing ele- ment in the remainder of the bill, too as may be understood from the list of contributors, which includes Clayton Kennedy and Mattie Rooney, and oth- CTS of prominence. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.

MILDRED HOLLAND.

The war between Japan and Russia gives special tinge of interest to the appearance of Mildred Holland in ssThe Triumph of an Empress" Tues day evening at Polls, for the reason that Miss Holland plays the role of Catherine the Great of Russia. Aside from the wonderful personal work of Miss Holland and in creating one of the foremost figures of the worlds hls- tory and making of her living wo- man. the role of Catherine in this pow erful and well written play will stand out as a brilliant dramatic picture, if for no other reason than its superb en- vironment. The scenic settings used i1l the action of "The Triumph of an Empress may be described as mag nificent exhibitions of the art of tne scenic artists. The costumes used are superb. Every yard of the gorgeous silks, yelvets and furs used ill the cos tumes was imported from Russia. af- fer being personally selected by Miss Holland, as were the swords, the buck les, the insignia, the crown jewels and other accoutrements necessary to ad- equately display the gorgeousness of the court of Catherine the Great lie sale of seats opens Monday at 25 30, 75 cents S1 and S1.50.
