THE JOHN E. BAssETT & co.

Well Known Firm Are Making a. Great
 Showing of Thanksgiving Articles.
 The well known hardware firm of The John E. Bassett & Co. on Chanel street are making an extensive showing of the many necessary articles that are required for use in the coming attack upon the appetizing turkey product at the Thanksgiving table, as well as many things that are required in handle the turkey on his way from the lire to the stomach. This firm has so many different utensils useful to the good house wife that perusal of the firms advertisement in another column will probably save her time and money both. For instance, there is table cut lery galore to choose from, drippinp and sauce pans, jelly moulds, and cof- fee pots, plated ware of all kinds, chating dishes, in short, you can find anything from the axe that kills the turkey to the after dinner toothpick. The John >E. Bassett &, Co. store is one of the most historic in the country, yet no modern store in it's line is more up to date and more extensively euuip- ped.

possible in the absence from the game of Captain Hurley. He was the soul of the game last year, and his absence takes out of the Harvard line not only its best player, but also the chief in- spiration for the other men. Wendell will take his, place at right-half back, and a field captain will be chosen on the day of the game. Harvard's case against Yale now seems more hopeless than ever. Even before Hurley's retire ment was announced the Harvard Bull letin printed an editorial Wednesday saying that truth and frankness con- pei us to say that the outlook is not very favorable for Harvard. It some times happens that the better team does. not win a fooball game, but such results are rare." A private letter writ ten from Cambridge Wednesday puts it even more bluntly as. follows: q do not see the slightest reason on which to base Harvard's success. The men on the team are not athletes, and in view of constant injuries have never succeeded in playing together as an eleven, so that there will be only a faint semblance of team work, and a rather feeble physical condition into the bargain. The Harvard club has prepared a letter to Coach Reid, ex- pressing the confidence in him and good wishes of the New York graduates, Harvard men are invited to sign this letter at the club house. 27 West Attn street, or authorize their signatures, before g o'clock last night !.

EXPERIMENTS
Hxperion Theater.

''The Gingerbread Man. the librettO and music of which were written by the late Fred Ranken and A. Baldwin Sl ane, will be al the Hyperion thea ter tonight and tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow night. II contains two acts and four scenes and deals with those realms of fancy people by such wholesome personages as Santa Claus, Jack Horner, Margery Daw, the Prin- cess Bon Bon, etc The story is de- ligh,ful tumble of nursery rhyme joys and affiictiOns into which are ingenious ly woven humorous, pungent cOmmen- taries on mundane and more tangible persons and things. Jack Horner, a role sustained by Miss Helen Bertram, for merly of the Bostonians, and The Gin gerbread Man are the main pivots around which the fantastic story re- wolves.
 The leading roles are all in the hands of artists of first rank in musical com- edy. This is especially true of the comedians who are headed by Gus Weinburg, Ross Snow, Gilbert Gregory, Edward Redway and Joseph Welsh. Comedy, refined but irresistible, is said to be one of the strongest claims The Gingerbread Man" has on popular fa- vour. Particular attention is drawn to the tuneful, quaint, philosophizing of the seXtette.

Lillian Mortimer in her new play ''No Mother to Guide Her will be at the New Haven thea1eF on Monday, Tues day, Wednesd day nights next week. There will be 8 souvenir matinee We'd nesday. Instead of the emotional roles which this gifted actress has seen fit to delineate in past seasons this year will find Miss Mortimer playing a low comedy role which should earn for her as nigh repute as those parts she has been seen in during the past years of her starring career. They d onot go to the theater to be educated, although every play should have moral, but the public seek Advertisement from the la bors of the day and find their greatest satisfaction and pleasure in witnessing a performance that give them hearty laughs in:erspersed with a story of human interest.

PASSING OF PORRIDGE. Makes Way for the Better Food of 8
 Better Day.

"Porridge is no longer used for break fast in my home," writes a loyal Britain from Huntsville, Ont. This was an ad- mission of no small significance to one brought up" on the time-honored standby.
 . "One month ago." she continues, q bought a package of Grape-Nuts food for my husband, who had been an in- valid for over a year. He had passed through a severe attack of pneumonia and la grippe combined, and was left in a very bad condition when they passed away.
 T tried everything for his benefit, but nothing seemed to do him any good. Month followed month and he still remained as weak as ever. I was almost discouraged about him when I got the Grape-Nuts, but the result has compensated me for my anxiety.
 '1n the one month that he has eaten Grape-Nuts he has gained ten pounds in weight, his strength is rapidly re- turning to him, and he feels like a new man, Now we all eat Grape-Uuts food, and are the better for it. Our little five-year-old boy, who used to suffer from pains in the stomach after eating the old-fashioned porridge, has no more trouble since he began to use Grape Nuts, and have no more doctors bills tot pay for him.
 We use GraperNuts with only sweet cream, and find it the most tasty dish in our bill of fare.
 "Last Monday ate four teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts and cream for break fast, nothing else; then set to work and got my mornings work done by nine o'clock and felt less tired, much strong CT, than if had made my breakfast on meat, potatoes, etc., as l used to. I wouldn't be without Grape-Nuts i'll the house for any money" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

IN TOWN.

A. Baldwin Sloane, the Composer.
 A.. Baldwin Sloane, the composer of the music of the new comic opera ''Yhe Gingerbread Man. which will be pre- scented at the Hyperion theater tonight and tomorrow was in New Haven yesterday. Mr Sloane also composed the music for Jack and the Bean stalk, , Lady Teazle,' ''The Mocking Bird'' and other well known successes,
 Most of my operas were suggested by very trivial incidents" said MT. Sloane at the New Haven house last night For instance, the story of The Gingerbread Man grew out of a very brief conversation which the late Fred eric Rankin and had in the Lambs club in New York last spring. We were discussing our dinner when waiter brought a small gingerbread man and showed us how it had been baked.
 What a capital title for a musical play said MT. Rankin. It is just the thing that will appeal to both children and grown ups, and musical play nowadays must appeal to persons of all ages to be a success. I can see a beau- tiful story now for a brilliant spectacu- lar production. Let us write it to- gether.' 'f Y: @~r -.. ;.

Interrupts West Haven Trolley Service
 at Cost of Life.
 Travel on the West Haven trolley line was interrupted and inconvenience ed for nearly an hour just during the rush hour between and. ' o'clock last evening through a catastrophe that oc- cured to a COW that strayed upon the track in AllingtoWn. The COW was struck by an inbound car due at the green at 6:1S, and as a consequence of the collision the car was derailed and incidentally the COW killed. A wreck ing car was immediately sent for, and i. .fifty-four minutes after the mishap the car proceeded on its way again. Mean while only one track could be used over the. stretch from the Boulevard to Wards Corner, and as at this hour the cars on this line are run on about a three-minute headWay the trouble caused some delay. The car due to leave the green at 2 o'clock did not reach there until 7:35.

OFF FOR THE BIG GAME.
SOME IMPORTANT CHANGES IN
 TALES TEAM.

Expected That Several Will be Made at
 the Eleventh Hour - Harvard's
 Chances.
 Yale's varsity football eleven left quietly yesterday without any ovation for Auburndale A few intimate friends saw them start from the New Haven house. When the team left there was talk at this eleventh hour before the contest that Yale was shy of the heavy Harvard attack and that it was thought to be wise move to put heav- fer men against such an onslaught. It was the opinion that Quill will be put at full back against Rex Finn and Roome has been definitely selected as half back, in place of Veeder, being heavier and better adapted for the work.
 The general opinion seems to be to start Jones and keep him in the game as long as he can stand the pace, which will not be more than 8 small part of the first half. for Jones has had no practice for his wind and his ankle is liable to go back on him at any time
 
 have Hutchinson to fall back upon. He has been tried and found the star of the Princeton game. He made some mistakes in the game with the Tigers but his playing was the most brilliont of any member of the Yale team.
 Yale expects that Harvard will send against her about twenty-five men, the largest ever used in Yale battle, and Yale will put about twenty against her. At left end it's seems absolutely certain that two will be employed, Gates and Howard Jones. Forbes is expected to play the whole game at left tackle. al- though his left hand, badly torn last week, Is still heavily bandaged. which interferes with his tackling. At left guard, Erwin will probably have to bear the brunt of the tandem attack of Squires and Brill and will probably be worn down and obliged to retire in favor of Hockenburger. Flanders is badly needed to stick to center for no first rate substitute is on the eleven. Phil Smith has been picked to take stfle snap back work in case Flanders is worn down and forced to quit. His two weak ankles make it likely that he cannot play out the game.

NEW HAVEN OPERA Hor7sE

The popular and every funny Rays presented their musical and grotesoue comedy Down the Pike" at the. New Haven theater last night before an au- dience that crowded every corner of the spacious house. Every theatergoer is so well acquainted with these two well known cemdians that to say any, thing in their favor would be simply superfuous. Suffice it to say that they both played their parts in such a mas terly manner that they simply took the large house by storm. The situations were most comical and kept the au- dience in fits of laughter until the cur- tain was run down at the conclusion of the last act Merriment runs riot all through the piece, and added to this are many popular and catchy sings which so pleased the people that they had to be repeated time and lime again. The company that surrounds Mir. and Mrs. Ray is equally strong, and they very ably supported the two stars in making the evenings entertainment q
 huge success. Certainly no one could spend an afternoon or evening in q pleasanter manner than in seeing Down the Pike" It is a certain cure for the blues and a happy relaxation from the cares and worries that have to be met with during the day. The various pallets are artisticaliy execut- ca by beautiful girls and the dresses and scenery used throughout the play are exceedingly tasteful and pretty. The advance sale of seats is large and
 in order to meet the demands an xtra
 matinee will be given this afternoon,
 as well as the usual evening perform ance. and also Saturday matinee and evening.

 CRESSOR."

A sumptuous scenic production of the new melOdramatic sensation, "The Way of the Transgressor," will be given at the New Haven theater on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, November 30! De cember and ?, as the Thanksgiving attraction. This is the latest novelty in theatricals, and it has proved a great success because it is radically different from anything hitherto attempted.

The plot is an interesting one, not strained or il- logical but a truthful tale of happen ings to people of the present day. Incl dental to the performance will be given 8 number of costly vaudeville acts. The supreme novelty of the whole produc- ton is the introduction of four highly educated dogs who play parts in the drama in such a masterful manner that those who see them are prone to say that they must be endowed with ahu- man brain.

FOR THANKSGIVING.
Letter from Rev. Mir. Mossman in Be-
 half of Others.

Letter from Rev. MT, Mossman in Be-
 half of Others.
 To Editor of inc Journal and Courier:
 Sir-Among the. many worthy and needy families known to those in city mission service at the Orange street mission house are the following:
 A home where the sickness of one member of the family after another (typhOid fever) has lessened the work ing force so that for the first time there is need of help; another family with strength enough to work, but for weeks past and even now work cannot be se- cured, and yet rent must be paid, the kitchen fire must be kept burning and the children must be clothed and fed; strong man weakened by a nearly fa- tai accident, bruised and broken, una ble to work and lying helpless on his bed at home, and. yet firmly refusing the help that was offered. We have a little left" he said. ''We'll wait till that is gone"
 In other homes workingmen, still skill full as ever, but, as age comes on, los ing in sight or strength of hand and so unable to obtain the work or wages of years ago. Yet there are the daily wants of themselves and their faithful wives to be provided for. They rarely ask for help, but we know they need it. None of these troubles mentioned is due to drink or other bad habits, and these are only five or six of the fifty or sixty doorways known to us through which substantial aid should go before Thanksgiving day.
 We would like to share with others the real pleasure there is in helping these who are our neighbors, those next to us, here in our own city and not far from our own comfortable homes. Thanksgiving supplies of any kind, funds, food, poultry, clothing, of- fers of personal help, will therefore all be welcome during the coming week at the City Mission house, No. POI Orange street, between Elm and Court. Gifts from schools; churches, Endeavor so- cieties and individuals will be gladly received and promptly acknowledged. Respectfully yours, s. W.vD. MOSSMAN,
 General Superintendent of City Mis-
 sionary Association.

 sTEINERTONE PIANOFORTHA Demand Among Artists for 1t it 7ecitals and Concerts. The SteinertOne Pianoforta is ir- { riSistab1e. There is an ilacreas@ ing demand among the artists of the pfanoforte to use this fine irl- strument. They choose it for their concerts because it is the best pia-i no through which they can give a true interpretation of all coTnpos&- tions. Its tonal effects, it's great power, the exqutsiteness of it's touch and it's wonderful action en- nance the artists playing InakinE 1t delight and euthuses the player to high musical and soulful interpretation
 The recital given in East Haven Congregational Church a few nights ago was a charming proof of this. That sterling artist, Miss Antoinette Brett, a graduate of the Yale Musical School never played with more artistic express . sion. At her touch the Steinertone piano spoke from its very soul and such a beautiful tone has never been heard.
 This pianoforte speaks it's own praises. It will easily convince people of it's superiority over other makes. Its superiority is not found only in one quality but in all The SteineytOne started where other pianos left off and stands in a world of its own.
