drama on the stage with an amateur cast as it would be for them to per- form their daily tasks at the bench or elsewhere. There is an immense amount of work connected with one of those productions and usually the brunt of the task falls upon the shoUl- ders of one or two. A start is made all right with everybody lending a hand, but soon comes forgetfulness, and the result is that if success is to be attained one or two of the cast must get out and do the hustling. That was the case in the recent performance of
 'The Roadside Marriage. For almost three weeks before the performance the whole battle was fought virtually by J. W. Phelps, and were it not for his strenuous efforts in the sale of tickets, etc, the financial depression of, the undertaking would have been much greater than it really was. Early and late he worked to make the drama both financially and dramatically a splendid success, and although he failed on the financial part he had the satisfaction of knowing he had saved the company some money. He is not discouraged, however, and will tackle the amateur business again next sea- son. and says he will keep at it until he furnishes to Waterbury successful production both in dramatic and. financial way.

NoBLEMAN LIVES IN CAVE
Rich Count, with Distaste for Socia. Functio1is, Abides on Summit
 of Vignemale.

One of the most remarkable noble men in all Europe Is probably Count Russell. whose love of solitude is car ried to such an extent that he lives in a series of caves placed high up on the snowy Vignemale in the Pyrenees.
 The count has house in Pau and is man of wealth-a Frenchman of Irish extraction He does not, how ever, care for social functions, and so he conceived the original notion of renting from the French government the whole of the Vignemale mountain from 5000 feet to it's summit, II ,00O feet For this he pays the nominal rent of one franc (20 cents) 8 year
 While the, caves were already in exist ence, the count has considerably "as, sisted" them by means of pickaxes and dynamite, carried up on mules.
 The count frequently sleeps in deep snowdrifts, wrapped in his reindeer sleeping bag, and from his nest among the eagles both France and Spain lie at his feet on either hand
 The caves are quite comfortably fur
 nished, but have carpets of straw. and the count frequently lends them tc friends who come to visit him in Pau

.erHE cABBAGE PATcH.n ;

The widely known "Mrs Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" paid late visit to Waterbury last night and for two hours or more furnished considerable fun and amusement for a small audi ence. 1t is styled three-act comedy with heart interest and is dramatized from Alice Hogan Rice's famous stor- ies, Mrs Wiggs" and "Lovey Mary The play is rather light in construc- tion and the spectators do not have to worry or trouble their minds in fol lowing it's various movements. You are not supposed to think about it, Nall you have to do is to sit in your seats and enjoy the fun. It is based upon the principle that people wish to give their minds rest when they go to the theater and do not desire to have them burdened with any intricacies of plot. Sufficient to say that it's pur- pose has been fulfilled
 The play is simply delineation of raw human nature. Raw types of mankind are taken and pictured ill colors which do not adhere strictly to the sense of propriety. The types are exaggerated, but it is this exagger- ation which makes the play what it is. The play abounds with humor and wit, interspersed with parts of a heavier nature, just enough to set it off. Much amusement is furnished the audience as the characters of the dicerent per sonages are disclosed to view.
 Mrs Wiggs is there in all her glory. She hustles and bustles around. af fording people the benefit of her bright and happy nature From her person joy and pleasure radiate and envelop the audience. Lovey Mary shares the benefit of her unusually good nature and brings sunshine into the fold. Optimistic, indeed is Mrs Wiggs, and even the darkest spots al- ways show q gleam of light for her, The part was well played last night by Mrs Madge Carr Cook. Miss Mabel Taliaferro was a pretty and sweet Lovey Mary. Mis- Hazy is type of of Mrs Wiggs. She is a pessimist of the deepest dye. Even her wedding day seems dark and gloomy to her. It hurts her to smile. Miss Helen Low ell we'll portrayed the part Well did she look and act the part of a gloomy, melancholy woman. who is always looking on the dark side of life. MT Stubbins, her husband. was one of the most interesting and amusing charac- ters. His queer actions, his odd man. nerisms, his strange etWang, his awk- ward shape, all combined to make him an object one look at which was suffi- cient to tickle the sensibilities of the audience. The minor roles were in capable hands.
 The production was much enjoyed by the spectators. who laughed until they grew tired at the eccentric acting Itof the eccentric characters which ap- peared in the eccentric comedy.
