A BUSINESS FRIEND To be Counted on Under All Circum-
 stances

One of the bright business women of New York city, who found that coffee was wrecking her nervous system, bringing on severe neuralgia attacks and making her extremely irritable" writes that she has found staunch friend in Postum Food Coffee:
 "T left off the old kind of coffee conn., pletely and entirely. This I found was easy to do, since Postum was pleasing to my palate from the beginning. In- deed, all my family are with me in thinking it delicious when it is properly prepared-and by that I mean boiled long enough.
 q have not had one single attack of neuralgia since I began to drink Pos tum some months ago; my nerves have become steady and the old annoying ir- has, thank PostGm, passed away. cannot withhold this acknowl- edgment, which is made in all sincere gratitude Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

ENTERTAINMENTS
Hyperion Theater.

George Primrose and his big minstrel company will be the attraction at the Hyperion theater next Thursday night with a. programme that contains noth- ing but minstrel acts, sketches and dances. The scenic investiture has been elevated to a degree of artistic import arlce that has been wanting in the old traditional shows. The singing of both the principals and chorus, as well as the playing of the orchestra, is said to be far superior to anything ever before heard in nlinstrelsy- The solo vocalists not alone display good voice, but sing with finish and refinement. Among them may be mentioned William Stern berg, tenor; F'ranklyn A. Bates, bari tone; Frank Coombs, Aubrey Yates, Gus Reed, William Oakland, William Stonalker and a chorus of trained male voices. The fun will be supplied by the following popular minstrel comedians: Arthur Deming, Eddie Mazier, Emil Su- hers, .AIf Gilson and George Primrose. The second part contains a long list of clever soft and wooden-shoe dancers, who will revive MT. Primrose's "SiIver Shower" clog, which, made the name of Primrose famous; also a. negro sketch wherein all the comedians take part and MT Primrose will be seen in a, new and original dancing number entitled the Cotton Blossom Coons." assisted by 8 score of soft-shoe dancers. The fifth number of the second part will be 8 big plantation act entitled Twilight on the Old Plantation" staged and pro- duced by MT. Primrose, during which will be given all the old-time dances, songs, humor and pathos of the south ern negro.
 The final number of the performance is a spectacular transformation entitled 'The Evolution of the Negro,' which is said to be the most beautiful stage pie ture ever seen. The stage setting for this and the opening part are of great magnificence. The costumes through out are of the most costly character.

Riiou Theater.

The coming week at the Bijou will witness the presentation of 'The Man from Mexico" that clever comedy hit which has been the means of making so many people laugh. It had run of 300 nights at the Garden theater in New York and is considered one of the best of the standard comedy hits.
 It is in three acts and will be superb ly and elegantly staged by the Poli Stock company. The success of the stock company with Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall' gives promise of being duplicated next week with the new play selected. f...>.-
 Miss Gertrude Shipman will play the wife and the capable company will lend material assistance to making this play a decided success. ..''.
 A reserved seat plan for the evening performances will be inaugurated next week and seats can then be secured in advance. "ol s
 The prices are the Poli popular scale: Evenings, 10, 20 and 30 cents; nlatinees, 10 and 20 cents; ladies at matinees, 10 cents.
 Manager Poli intends making the Bijou the family resort, and to this end will produce the best plays only, no matter what the royalty may be.
 "The Christian" which is Hall Gaines masterpiece, will be presented week after next, and equally high standard plays will follow. s

St, Christopher.

To Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 When one is interested in an event which ought to prove interesting to the general public the best way to let everybody know about it is to write to the newspapers.
 One of the foremost of oratorio com- posers lives in New Haven. His fame Is already spread abroad in this land end in others, and his works have at tained to a degree of popularity second to those of none other living composer Next week we are to have an opportu- nity of paying tribute to this man. Do we realize what privilege 1t will be to listen for the first time to Professor Horatio Parker's 'St. Christopher? New York has heard it; so has Boston, Washington and other leading cities here and in England.
 The writer recently had the pleasure of attending rehearsal of this work. From the first chorus, Tn the Grey Rawn of Early Time" with it's mys- terious opening bars, to the stirring ap- peal, Labor Bravely, Nobly on, Though the Stormy Waves Arise" which closes the cantata, it impressed me as a work worthy the best powers of the best choral society. The treatment of the fine old legend-English version by the composers mother-is very unique and original and naturally absorbingly in- teresting The music is lavish in melo- die ideas, eToquently portrayed, rising at times to the highest dramatic ex- pression. The work is scored for cho- rus, double chorus, large orchestra and organ.
 The test of an oratorio is the attitude of 8 chorus toward it after weeks of study. There was no question of doubt left in the writer's mind the other even- ing. ''st. Christopher must be grate- ful to any intelligent chorus, as it abounds in just that fervid, spontane- ous charm needed to spur on singers to their best efforts. New Haven will give it's verdict next week on Professor Parker's beautiful cantata. Unques- tionably there can be but one verdict it must be that of enthusiastic ap-| proval. Muo4COo'

MINcKLER IS HERE.
Detective Daley Returned Last Night
 With His Man. t

Detective Daley Returned Last Night
 With His Man. Y.
 Detective Daley arrived home last night from Albany having in custody Albert c. Minckler, who is wanted here on five counts for stealing typewriter machines. Minckler's operations in this city wer econducted during last April and May. He then cleared out, but De- tective Daley traced him to Kingston, N. r., where he had already been ar rested for stealing rugs. His six months term ended yesterday, and De- tective Daley was on hand with extra dition papers. .f. --.
 The following are the counts on which Minckler is held: Theft of type writer from Edward Hart, H Center street, on April "A, pawned in Bridge port; typewriter from Henry L. Evans on same date, pawned in New Haven; one from Remington Co.,, on May 2; an Oliver typewriter from Moses c. Fergu- son on May 12, paWned in Derby; an Underwood from Underwood agents, pawned in New Haven.
 MinckIer's method of operation was to buy the machines on trial, claiming that he operated insurance offices in Derby and Ansonia, and wished them for the offices. He promised to pay in a few days if the machines were satis- factory, but he pawned them and left as soon as he could get out.
 Minckler is a very small man, and is twenty-five years old. He claims An sonia as his home and says insurance is his business.

THE FAYS.

The Pays are again to visit us. They come to the New Haven theater for one week, commencing next Monday night. The impression of the many marvellous and mysterious things these wonderful people accomplished during their last engagement in this city is still fresh in the memory of many people here. Dur ing the Fays' last engagement here they were the most talk of people in the city, and the wonderful things they did nightly at the theater were discussed on every hand. If one went to the club the Fays were the topic of conversa- tion. At the stores, in the streets, and, in fact, everywhere, all one could hear would be '"The Fays."
 Their entertainment Is said to be more wonderful than ever, if such a thing is possible. Accompanying them is quite a large company of artists and talented entertainers, who do much to make an evening spent at this wonder full performance one of rare enjoyment. Of course the Pays furnish the prinei- pal part of the programme with their strange and perplexing feats. The lady Is known as the Fair Mahatma" and
