DOCKSTADER'S MINISTRIES.

Instead of 'The Frisky Mrs John- son" at Polls next Tuesday evening, the stock company will give way to Lew Dockstader and his merry min strel men, provided the only Lew succeeds in shaking off the fit of de- pression in which he is now suffer- ing, for his famous swallowtail coat, familiar to every theater-goer in the country has been stolen, and the great humorist and minstrel enter tainer is inconsolable. The garment is described as Secretary of War Taft size; easy fit for three average sized men combined" and liberal reward Is offered for its return, and mo questions asked" There is prob- ably no town in this broad land that is not acquainted with the famous Dockstader dress coat. It is part of the famous minstrels career. It's vast proportions and voluminous folds have been the wondeyment of folks who delight in the burnt cork enter tainment. It has been made familiar to young and old through millions of photographs and newspaper cuts, and its picturesque amplitude has em- blazoned and decorated every bill board, fence and stone wall in the country. The loss of the famous coat which has become a classic part of American minstrelsy is no joking matter to MT Dockstader. Coats of that size are not usually carried in stock by clothing store keepers and new broad cloth is out of the ques- tion. It has taken Dockstader years of care and attention to get the prop CT shade of elegance and artistic shine consistent with negro antiq- uity and responsibility. Prices are 25, 50, 75 cents, s1 and $1.50. Tele- phone 116. Seat sale Monday and no free list.

NAUGATUCK WON GAME.

The big athletic attraction at Savin Rock yesterday during the firemen's convention was, the baseball game between the St Johns of New Haven and the Naugatuck firemen. The game was won by Naugatuck with a 5 to'3 score. and was hotly contested from start 10 finish.
 A big crowd turned out and con siderable enthusiasm was shown. The Naugatuck fire department cheered their team to the echo. This team. by the way. is one of the crack hines of the state. having defeated nearly ev- cry opponent this season.
 The contest yesterday was any body's game up to the eighth inning. when Clifford cracked out timely hit. bringing in two runs..
 A unique feature was the putouts for Naugatuck. three players doing all the work, first and third baseman and catcher.
 Both Dawson and Dermotty pitched fine ball. Jimmy Cook played a star game at second for St Johns. The score:

POLI'S
THE FR1sKY MRS JOHNSON.

THE FRISKY MRS JOHNSON"
 For the drawing card at Polls next week the players of the sum- mer stock will present another of Amelia Bingham's great successes, 'The Frisky Mrs Johnson" by Clyde Fitch. who also wrote "The Climb CTS" and The Cowboy and the Lady" which have already been played this season with conspicuous results. The play was used by Miss Bingham just before she gave up the one night stands to become leading woman of F. F. Proctor's Fifth Avenue Stock company and she made as great hit in it as she did in "The Climbers. :" The atmosphere of the piece is not quite so smart" as "The Climbers" !" but the dramatic possibilities are even greater. There is keen vein of satire running through it and much that is broader comedy. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents, afternoons 10 and. 20 cents, ladies 10 cents. Souvenirs Friday afternoon. There will be no performances Tuesday as Dockstader's minstrels occupies the theater that night.
