.sTEINERT AND WEBER.
Famous Piano Man Aroused the Theaf-
,asgs. ricaI Manager. ri *

-
Several, weeks ago Morris steinert,
the noted piano dealer and inventor of
the famous steinertone, went to Lake
wood, NJ. r., for a short rest from his
arduous business duties. While there
he met a. number of very prominent
men Of national reputation, who were
exceedingly glad to meet the famous
piano man. Among them were some
good story-tellers, and evenings they
used to gather to amuse each other
with "reminiscences. MIR. Steinert, in
his customary modest way, listened
and enjoyed the proceedings, They
little, thought of the great fund of orig
inal stories he had up his sleeve, or of
the brilliant repartee at his command,
One day, however their eyes were
opened and the way in which it was
done is best told by the following story
from the Merchant Tailors Journal Of
New York: ~ 49,,
John Schmeig, of James w. Bell, Son
& Co., who quite recently has, been
stopping at the Lakewood hotel, Is
nothing if not a wag. One day he in
|ftroduced Morris Steinert, an aged piano
manufacturer of New Haven, and sharp
old satirist of free speech, to Joe Web
Der, of music hall fame. TELL him
some funny stories, joe" asked
Schmeig. Weber did his prettiest.
steinert cracked not a smile. Web
Der looked nonplussed. $50 T.
|. Heard 'em twenty-five years ago."
remarked Steinert, sourIy. 49,
Ever been in my music hall?" asked
Webber. .s.
Yep, six years ago. Pretty house
pretty rotten show, though"
Webber's anger was slowly but surely
rising to a white heat, and there would
have resulted some tart language had
not Charles Frohman, the manager, ana
Paul Potter, the dramatist, interfered
and explained Schmeig's little joke.
Weber stood bottle.
The Man About Town,
And after this Mr.. Steinert was con-
stantly in demand.

New Haven Theater.

A beautiful story, well written, ar
tistically staged and more than exceed
ingly well rendered by an excellent
cast, is the compliment that can be
paid to the .''Village Parson, snow rum
ming at the New Haven theater. The
play is made up of four acts and seven
scenes. 1t is a purely pastoral play,
and appeals strongly to, the better side
of live. In short, it is strong and
powerful sermon with, it's telling points
excellently portrayed by the company
to whom it's rendering has been en-
trusted. 1t is intensely dramatic all
through and is full of pathetic and ex-
citing situations that keep the audi
enee interested from start to finish.
While the pathetic predominates the
play has also it's humorous side, and
this with the many well planned and
exciting climaxes never fail to draw
forth the hearty appreciation of the
audience. The scenic features of the
play, are well worth seeing,, especially
that of the second act which depicts
the music hall and roof garden at a
| cafe in New Orleans. The part of Tom
Cooley, the parson, is in the able hands
of w. c. Dowlan, while that of Fern
| Cooley, his wife, is taken by Miss
frankie Francis. Both artists give a
splendid portray al of the parts allot-
ed to them, and the audience was not
| slow in showing it's appreciation of
! their work. Felix Gordon, the rogue,
is cleverly taken by Sam. c. Miller,
| while that of his brother, Bud Gordon,
a victim Of circumstances, receives
! ample justice at the hands of D. V.
Wall. Little Myrtle, the parsons blind
child, is perfectly rendered by Baby
olivia The other parts are. also ably

ENLARGEMENT OF THE PEOPLES
FISH MARKET.

ASH hAINhE1-
The Peoples Fish market, situated at
No. "a Congress avenue, has long been
recognized and appreciated as a model
market, where every variety of sea food
could be obtained. of the very best quail
ity and at reasonable rates. No mark
.et in this State has ever kept finer
stock or a larger selection of goods. or
had them more attractively displayed.
1t is common talk to hear people who
for the first time have visited The
Peoples Market to exclaim: why,
never saw such a large selection of sea
food before, and how attractive and APP
petizing it looks" s&5 I'LL
William H, Wilson & Son, the proprie-
tors, have a rare talent for the bust
ness in which they are SO successfully
engaged They have a place for ev-
erything. and everything is in its place.
Their store is ''as neat as wax and
their goods just fresh from the water,
are temptingly displayed. There is a
total absence of everything that is I'M
tidy, and the usual odors conspicuous
in some fish markets are not found in
their establishment. In order to facil-
itate their large and steadily increasing
business, Wilson & Son have found it
necessary to use the entire building at
"a Congress avenue. They have just
completed the improvements and al
terations, and they now have several
extra rooms and a large basement. also
number of compartments which will
help them very materially in conducting
their large trade. Their spring selec-
ton of sea food at this time looks es-
pecially inviting, and as immense quan-
titles are sold daily it can be readily
understood that no old or inferior goods
are found at The Peoples Market.

An interesting dramatic event will be
the engagement of Nat. C. Goodwin in
this city Saturday night. Interesting

much and which will show him in8a
new character, that Of an up-to- the
minute man of affairs who has a mo-
tive for everything he does, and always
does the right thfngrat the proper mo-
ment. The play is a comedy styled
1.-THE usurper,'' and gives itsssstar a
chance to display his many sided gem
Jus both in comic situations and pa
thetic climaxes. The piece will be
staged with the usual Goodwinesque
layishness, everything, used behind the
footlights will be brought along, even
to a handsome and elaborate tableaux
curtain The engagement is for one
night only. Saturday afternoon Mr..
