Jacques
VAUDEVILLE.

One of the most important an- nouncements made by MT Poli since he established vaudeville in Water bury is that of Mabel McKinley's en- gagement to appear at the Jacques as the feature of next weeks bill. Miss Mckinley. as is we'll known. was the favorite niece of the late Presi- dent Mckinley and lived with him in the White House until the bullet from Assassin Czolgoz's pistol robbed the nation of his distinguished ser vices. Under the presidents patron age Miss Mckinley was educated in the leading musical eonservatories of Vienna and Milan. and in the social affairs given in the White House dur ing the Mckinley administration she was always conspicuous as the chief entertainer After the presidents death Miss Mckinley found it neces- sary to make nse of her brilliant mu- sieal talents and she connected her self with one Of the leading church choirs of Brooklyn. where she at once attracted attention for the mar yeIous sweetness and volume of her IllH rullaub FDltr- AN Ndr Nnlit tut was engaged in church singing that vaudeville attracted Miss Mckinley. and she at once sprang into promi- hence as one of the most popular and capable headliners in the profession So popular. indeed. was she that her engagements were confined almost exclusively to New York and other metropolitan cities until this season. when MT Poli induced her to make a tour of his circuit In New Haven. Hartford and Springfield MiEs Mo Kiniey drew the largest audiences ever seen in Poii's theaters. and fn Bridgeport this week she is packing Poli-s tn the doors with the best peo- pie of the Park city The great es- teem in which President Mckinley vas held and the desire to honor his fsvorite niece always result in bring ing large crowds to the opening per formances of her engagement. and the eGeetiveaess with which she uakes good does the rest. always crovnfng her c7xseemeufs with the no~t extracrdinzry success The ether plsysrs on the bill are the Duff nn- -Redcaif trouNe Of serobafs.

GANs-NELsON FIGHT.

The first Sunday night the Cans Nelson pictures were shown in New York 5000 enthusiastic sports made such strenuous effort to crowd into the theater at one time, that they swept away the lobby rails and guards, ticket boxes and door men before them, necessitating the calling of police reserves to pro- tect the several hundred women from injury in the throng. To prevent a recurrence of any such conditions an extra force of reserve policemen has been detailed to the New York roof for every night hereafter during the fighting pictures engagement. AL though the pictures show plainly the now celebrated blow which Nelson struck Cans in the forty-second round, and after which the colored boy sank to the floor and rolled over apparently helpless. each of the bat tiers has his own loyal partisans who loudly voice their respective opin- ions. The pictures are ar Polls to- morrow afternoon and night. Prices are 25.s 35, 50 and 75 cents. matiree 25 and 50 cents. Tel 10S4.

.-ENWOOD TWICE
DEFEATS ASPEN
Locals Make a Total Of 70 HITS
in the Two Games and Badly
OutCIdSS SiIveriteS

The Aspen team proved easy pick
ing for the Glenwood boys in both
games of the series, the locals winning
on Strawberry Day by score of 12 to
B and the other on Sunday by IS to 6
While the locals put up rotten
fielding exhibition in both games they
made up for their bad work by hitting
the offerings of Pitcher Wigdon all
over the field and were never in dan
ger of losing either game.
Happy Hogart was in splendid
form both days and the Aspen boys
would have been shut out in both con.
tests with good support behind the
big fellow. However Happy" broke
into the error column with costly err.
rors so he has no kick coming on his
support.
-Wigdon, the much touted college
pitcher, got his bumps proper in both
games. He has nice delivery with
speed to burn but there is not enough
curve to his twisters to fool even an
ordinary batter let alone such sluggers
as the Pets. He yielded 30 clean hits
in the two games and together with
fifteen errors behind him the Glenwood
boys ran bases in several innings till
they very nearly exhausted. Wigdon 8
weak point is in his delivery which is
necessarily slow TO start his speedy
ball. This worried him with men on
bases and he invariably allowed hits
at critical periods.
However, taken all together the
games were very interesting. especial
ly the first one. when after bad
start Aspen tied the score in the
fifth inning. But the locals came
right back with four runs and from
that on Wigdon was hit freely.
Following are the box scores of the
games:

For the New IRduStry

E. j. Bess and H. w Fitton have
been in Glenwood this week present
ing the claims of the Roaring Fork
Plaster company which will soon erect
large plaster works up the river, en-
ploying close to one hundred men
The demand for cement plaster is in
creasing Sc rapidly that this will cer-
tainly prove big paying business.
and the nearness to Glenwood Of the
mill will make it valuable to The
town in commercial way.
Inasmuch as this company proposes
to invest nearly $1,000, 900 in this
plant they feel that the business men
of Glenwood should show their appre-
citation of such an industry by sub
scribing as literally as possible to the
stock of tie company, and in this
they have not been disappointed. The
business men have been quick to see
the advantage to the town OF such xn
industry and have already prom sed
to subscribe literally to the stock.

wild West Show a Success

The wild west show given at the
race track Sunday afternoon was
attended by over 300 people and they
were we'll pleased with the exhibition.
The show was under the supervision
of Oscar Smith of Glenwood, Rich
Thomson of Aspen, and George Warner
of Carbondale and they were assisted
by such we'll known riders as Milo
Burke and the Baxter brothers. Aus
tin Gavin was the announcer.
Oscar Smith, the local boy, carried
off the honors of the afternoon, and he
surprised even his most ardent admir-
ers by his splendid riding.
Rich Thomson, always Glenwood
favorite, put up his usual fancy ex-
hibition but was unfortunate in get
ting hold of bronchos who were more
inclined to run than buck.
Milo Burke, George Warner and
the Baxter boys also demonstrated
their ability to ride and handle any
old kind of broncho
