LOVERS LANE.

i Clyde Fitch's beautiful pastoral play Lovers Lane," which will be presented at Polls Saturday afternoon Rnd evening has duplicated the suc- bcess of "Way Down East which has made several fortunes. 1t is a fresh wholesome pastoral of small town life an New England, full of local color and reaism. It introduces quaint and Humorous characters, and unfolds a love story that is neither mawkish nor hmeretricious. Lovers Lane'' is the kind of play that people go away and praise to their friends and which can be seen more than once with pleasure and profit. There are no surer tests pf popularity. The play is the thing mot the players, although the manage have supplied a slendid cast and beautiful scenic illusions. The orchard scenes, for example, are among the most beautiful as we'll as costly, that have been seen in any modern produc- hion. The sale of seats will open to- morrow at 9, 35, 90 and 75 cents, and for the matinee a special bargain sale of 9 and 50 cents.

Everything points to crowded

S9 P OL IS
QUEEN OF WHITE SLAVES.

1 This highly sensational melodrama &s being played at Poli's this afternoon
 hnd will have another performance
 this evening. It deals with one of
 the most troublesome problems that
 the authorities of the far western #states have to contend with in years
 gone by as well as at the present time. fgEhis is a powerfully organized band of criminals engaged in the terrible and nefarioJs crime of adbucting white girls, forcibly confning them, trans Eporting them to China if necessary, land then selling them to the highest bidders among the Highbinders. This Igang has been known by various Thames, ..The Highbinders' being the \ {lbest known cognomen. It was only a short time since that the San Fran Ecisco police, aided and instigated by fa well known eastern detective by the lname of Wendell, broke up a gang of Efhis kind known as "The Terrible Mine" So heinous and unmention- ERble were the crimes committed by Ethis organization that the arrest and
 execution of it's principal members Twas regarded a Godsend to the com tmunity. It appears that Detective EWendel learned in New York city &hrough some of the eastern reresenta- Ftives of the gang, of plot to abduct Ia beautiful and wealthy young wo- Eman, take her forcibly to China and 7 fthen sell her to yellow mandarin who had been advised concerning her beauty and accomplishments by his
 New York agents. Wendell was too bate to prevent the abduction of the
 girl from her home, but by the assist Rnce of the state department he res scued her in China, just as she was Rbout to be placed in the seraglio of hhe Chinese statesman. It is under Btood that the Queen of the White $laves'' is based on this incident, a
 fact which, if so, should give the Ldramatist every opportunity to ex- p1oit one of the most thrilling sensa-
 lions of modern times. Prices are %,
 B5 and 50 cents.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

AT THE JACQUES.
 If the current show at the Jacques is not really the best one that Mana ger Poli has given us at this house, it is so very near 1t that it would be fnical to dispute the point. 1t could hardly be otherwise with so distin- guished an actress as Mary Hampton heading the bill. Miss Hampton's ca reer as leading lady for E. H. Sothern, William Morris and others of Charles Frohman's stars, is so we'll known, and she made such a brilliant success in that capacity, that nothing but ex- ceptiOnal acting could be looked for at her hands in vaudeville. And in 'The Melodrama," which she is pre- senting with the support of John Stepping and Frank Whitman, she has an act that tries clt her powers thoroughly and furnishes no end of amusement for the audiences. The rest of the bill is in keeping, making
 1t, as said on all sides, one of the very best expositions of high class vaudeville that we have ever been treated to in Waterbury. Among those who contribute these features are Oracle Emmett and company, Colby and Way, the Waterbury Broth CTS, Milt and Maud Wood, the Jug gling Mac Bans, the Brooks brothers and the electrograph. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 2O cents. ladies 10.

Ice Cream Disappeared Seven Quarts
 at Time.
 Samuel Habin, who conducts an ice cream and confectionery store on Church street, received two tubs of Reids ice cream from New York Tuesday. Not having room for both tubs in his ice box he packed one with ice and placed it outside the rear of his store. When he went to look at the cream later on he found seven quarts missing. Yesterday afternoon he missed seven more quarts. Mir Habin left the remaining quart in the tub and then kept "a strict watch over it. His detective work brought good results, for soon after he caught small Italian boy in the act of making away with the remaining quart Of ficer William Malone was called and the little culprit was taken to the pc lice station. He gave the names of four more boys, all Italians, who he said also stole the cream. Last night the parents of the boys settled the case out Of court by reimbursing MT Habin. MT Habin was willing to settle for just what the cream cost him, which amounted to a little over $4.
