with whom the strikers are AFFILIATED

work. There are some 600 members
of the Carpenters union, and this
means weekly return of at least $3.50
for the idle workmen. Furthermore 1t
was said by an officer of the organ
ization that large majority of the
men who struck against the manufac-
turing lumber firms had found other
jobs and that they likewise had sub
mitted to an assessment which would
place the total amount Of this relief
fund at more than $3.50 week. In adj
dition the strikers are receiving week
ly remittances from the treasury Of
the International union and they are
very we'll able. SO they declare, to re-
main out the rest of the summer or
longer than that If necessary.

and are now giving them trial runs
all about the county. The cars are the
property of Lawyer Henry A. Hunting
ton and Alfred Olds.
Both machines were constructed in
Mr.. Odds barn, and are fully equipped
cars of the most modern type. The en-
gines are four cylinders, each develop
ing $3.50 horsepower and they will push
their burden along easily at about thir-
ty miles an hour
Mr.. Odds says that the building of The
car is very interesting work, and he

of mind and little time to spare, t
take up the task as little diversion in
stead of tennis or checkers.

AT THE LOCAL THEATERS


The return of the Poll Stock company
headed by Gertrude shipman and Law
renee B. McGill was marked by large
and enthusiastic audiences at Polls
new theater last night and yesterday
afternoon.
The company, which has also been a
favorite at Polls, Hartford, presented
George Barr McCutcheons romantic
drama ''Graustark," in five acts. II
has been arranged for the stage by
Grace Hayward. The story is one of a
mythical kingdom, Graustark in Ger
many. The visit Of two Americans and
the entangling developments in which a
princess plays an important part are
the threads that kept the action going
and 1t was melo-dramatic enough t
suit the gallery.
The first act presented a very elabo-
rate stage setting and the entrance Of
Miss Shipman is made in an automo.
bile. She. received flowers last nigh
and whirlwind of applause showing
she had not lost any of her friends by
her absence.
Her work as the princess was give1
in perfect style and with freedom o
action, She wears most bewltchina
dress in the last act when she assume
the throne, which is likely to make tn
ladies sit up and take notice.
Mr.. McGill as the American, Grenfal
Lorry, was well cast. William F. Can
field as Prince Gabriel, Dorothy Laml
as Countess Dagmar, and Margaret Ha
gan as Teel are all remembered as wa
Victor Browne, Cameron Clemmen
and Harry Langdon.
The new corners to the company al
proved their merit last night and tn
production was a genuine success. TIL
scenic arrangements are well execute
and the costumes, as are usual wit
Poll productions, were very elaborate.
