New Haven Theater.

'"The Way of the Transgressor, 9 which is announced to appear at the New Haven theater tonight, to-mor- row night and Saturday night, is ver- itable novelty. To properly classify the play is a difficult matter. While it is essentially a melodrama, yet there is so much comedy mingled with the stirring situations that it is as full of laughter as the ordinary comedy. There is love and happiness depicted. there is laugh ter and a tinge of sorrow, tiiere is com- edy one minutes and pathos the next, and, in fact, a representation of every phase of life under the most interesting conditions.
 Combined with a dramatic cast of undouhted strength will be a number of European specialists who will introduce novel acts in one of the scenes. The story of the play is rapid in develop ment and never commonplace. The scenic mounting is complete. Every set is a special one built from sketches made in the locality represented and all qrtistically painted. There are num- r yer of mechanical devices employed that are novel and striking, and thert

IN THE LAND OF COTTON.

IN 1t1E LAND Of CO1LON
 A pleasing relief from the melodrama
 with which the stage is surfeited is Daniel L. Hart's new play, Tn the Land of Cotton," which tells a tender story of life in the Virginia of to-day.
 MT. Hart has selected as the scene of his play an invigorating spot, the yi cinity of Fortress Monroe, which has known more romance and chivalry than any other corner of these great United States.
 The play produces tears, but the smile comes before the tear on the cheek has dried. The company is one of unusual excellence, while the scenery is novel and massive.
 One act represents a corn field for which carload of genuine cornstalks are carried, and this scene is said to be
 the most picturesque on the American stage. Although the play is not histor- ical in it's character, the interior of Fortress Monroe is shown, with New
 port News and Hampton Reads in the distance.
 No play of the season has shown as much sweetness, strength, humor, nat uralness and character as has Tn the Land of Cotton," with its wealth of scenery and competent company. This play will be the attraction at the Fly
 perion theater next Friday and Satur-
 day, with matinee Saturday.

HOW TO THREAD BEAD NECK
 LACES,

Women are rethreading the old bead necklaces they have found hoarded in their iewelry cases and are separating each colored bead by narrow one of sparkling crystal.
 What to thread the necklace upon is a mooted point. Do not be inveigled bv those who tell you that waxed thread is satisfactory for the purpose into giving the story credit For beads that are in the least heavy it is most unsatisfactory and leads to a breakage after the necklace has been worn once or twice.
 The threading medium to choose is a violin string, and if the "E' string be asked for it will be found fine enough and sufficiently strong to suit all pur- poses.-London Daily Mail.

The singing, which should have frightened the comedy served only to arouse much mirth in the audience.

FORGOT HER CHILD.
And Latter Was Severely Burned in
Swanton Fire Yesterday.

Swanton, Feb. 14.-The dwelling of
Aide MARCEL at the corner Of Pine and
First street was totally destroyed by
fire with contents yesterday. The loss
is estimated at $500. A child six
months old was SO severely burned that
its recovery is doubtful.
The family is composed Of the par
ents and three children. The father
is a laborer and went away early in
the morning to 60 to his work. About
II o'clock the mother left the children
in the house for a few minutes to go
on an erTand at neighbours house.
The two older children, aged five and
seven respectively, ran to her a little
later, crying that the house was on
fire. 1t is supposed that they had been
playing with matches Not thinking
that tho baby was left alone in the
cardle in the burning building, the
mother ran to the neighbors' for help
and an alarm speedily called out the
iiremen.
When the mother finally remembered
that her baby had not been taken out
she was distracted. Two firemen rushed
into the room and picked up the child
and carried it out. The bed clothing and
cradle We're all ablaze and the child
was unconscious from the smoke and
heat when rescued.
