New Haven .Theater.

The Pays scored another decided suc-
 cess at the New Haven theater last
 night before large and interested au-
 dience. The entertainment provided by Phil Staats, the funny-speaking man, caused much amusement and his jokes and piano playing were very much ap- preciated and generously applauded. The midair hvitation act of MT. Fay again mystifisd the audience and held it in. amazenent and wonder. The ar tistic dancing of the Sisters Kolosowa
 was splendidlY conceived and executed in such brilliant manner as to fairly bring down the house, while Romano, the clever eqIilibrist, shared an equal reception by lis difficult feats perform ed with an trdinary lighted reading lamp.
 | Of course tie audience was there principally to hear and see Mrs. Fay. Her appearance was the signal for a weird calm that settled over the house, and she began al once to call out the names of familiar and well known peo- pie who were present. Some of them had their questions written on paper. while others who were called were sim gled out by Mrs Fay and had their thoughts correctly read, and in the ma jority of cases correctly answered. Mrs Fay again repeated her previous clever work, answering many important ques- tions which the audience had desired to know. She told in a most astonish- ing manner about lost relatives and where they might be found, property that had been losI and where it might be found. Her answers at times were so comical that the audience was fairly convulsed with laughter. What was perhaps the cleverest piece of work was the recovery of valuable pin. The person who had lost it had written the question on paper and Mrs, Fay replied by telling that the person who had found the pin was in the house. The finder was discovered, and Mrs. Fay minuttely described the pin, which was returned to it's owner.
 The first matinee for ladies will take place this afternoon and the advance sale of seats is very large. These mat inees will be continued daily for the rest of the week, with the usual even- ing performances.

Alexandra Viarda, who is going to present, with her company, a new play, ''Gabriela," at the Hyperion on Friday night, did not originally intend to ap- pear on the American stage this season. While paying 8 visit to intimate friends in this country the family of a we'll known New York banker, who have their summer home on the Atlantic coast, Alexandra Viarda was induced to present two acts of the play "Gabri- ela," written especially for her. at a charity affair at Rudolph, Atlantic City. Notwithstanding the disadvan- tage of a small stage and reception hall, the force of her playing and the favorable reception of the play by so cultured an audience caused many of- fers to be made to her by theatrical managers to tour the states this season. Further urged by her friends, she final ly consented and selected Mark w. Da- wis, who had formerly toured with Modjeska, fer her manager.

A revolution in this respect has been brought about by George Primrose's s biz minstrel company. which comes to the Hyperion theater tomorrow night. All the elaborate scenery for the pro- duction has been especially painted by Louis Young and Gates and Morangue, from whose studio has come the scen- cry for many of the most costly New York operatic and spectacular produc- tions.

Buffalo Tree HOMER.

The Buffalo tree hopper is a light
green, three-cornered insect, abo II
one-third of an inch in length. WI At
appears to be the head, really the
thorax, is large and broad and termin-
ates abruptly, having on either side a
short, sharp spine or thorn, somewhat
resembling the horn of a. buffalo, and
from this comes the common name of
the insect This insect feeds upon
great variety of plants. 1t does its
chief injury while depositing its eggs,
in August. These are deposited in the
limbs of various trees, including the
apple. Clean culture of orchards will
do much to keep down these insects.
Where many eggs are deposited on
limb, the only remedy is to cut of
the limb and burn it, but this may be
done in the late fall or early spring.
at which times it is easier than at the
present time to discover the eggs.

Watering Trees in Summer.

1t generally does little good to at
tempt to water trees in summer
Keeping the ground pulverized will
generally accomplish more in supply
ing moisture to the tree than will the
supplying of water by the hose. The
great trouble in watering with a gar
den hose is that enough water is not
given. The man will think he has
thrown on great deal of water, but
1t will be found on investigation that
the ground has not been moistened to
a greater depth than one inch. Many
OF the light showers in summer wet
the ground only to a depth of one
fourth or one-half of an inch. They
really do no good to the tree through
the roots. Their chief benefit con.
sists in washing the dust off the
leaves. If man is to use a garden
hose on his trees, he will accomplish
more by washing off the foliage than
by attempting to water the tree from
below. The failure in the latter case
is due to too small supply of water;
and it is extremely difficult to supply
enough water through the garden hose
to affect many trees.
