AT NEW HAVEN THEATER.

The Mummy and the Humming Bird
 Delights Large Audience.
 That delightful comedy, The Mum my and the Running Bird" more than fulfilled all the promises made in it's behalf at the New Haven theater last night, when it played to large and also enthusiastic audience. It is sell dom that the public have such an op- portunity as that offered by Mr. Bun nell in being able to witness what Is really first-class comedy played by high h-price1 cast at the usual popular prices, which prevail at the New Ha- ven the ater during this engagement Jules Murry's Own company, headed by w. A. Whitecar is in itself sufficient guarantee that the performance is of the highest caliber.
 The Mummy is the soubriauet be- slowed by his friends upon the leading character, a husbandwho is deeply en- grossed In his scientific investigations that he is more or less oblivious to the ordinary affairs of life. The Running Bird is an Italian nobleman, who is eventually found by the husband to be
  paying too ardent attention to the lat ter's wife, and who puts his wits against those of the Mummy in an at- tempt to supplant him in the affections of his wife. The plot, it's treatment, the characters involved, and, indeed the entire play is as unique, foreeful and deeply expressing in the interest it excites.
 William A. Whitecar in the leading role, and Henry Carl Lewis again as Giuseppe the organ grinder, gave an excellent portrayal of their parts and were repeatedly applauded during the progress of the play. Amanda Yelling ton as Lady Lumley and Rachel San derson as Mrs. Ruth Thornton also gave a good account of their parts, and were also generously rewarded. "The Mummy and the Running Bird" de- serve crowded houses, which it is sure to get tonight, Saturday matinee and nigh.,

DEAD WOMAN IDENTIFIED
One of the Victims of Gas at Leno

One of the Victims of Gas at Lenox House is Known.
 The woman found dead, being over come by gas, in one of the rooms of the Lenox house on George street, for merly the Adams house, has been iden- tif1ed as Bessie Horan of Fair Haven. Before her marriage her name was Sheriden. She leaves her mother-in- law, Mrs. Horan of 113 Bailey street.
 The man who was also found dead in the same room with her has not yet been identified. although his home is thought to have been in Providence.
 The couple went to the, hotel late Wednesday night, and were found at about o'clock this morning stretched across the bed, the woman fully dress ed, and the man partly undressed. A hotel employe smelled gas strongly. and at Clerk Woods suggestion broke in the door, and discovered the tragedy. The gas was turned on full force and was still escaping
 Coroner Mix and Medical Examiner Bartlett were Investigating the case all day yesterday, but have not yet de- clded upon the cause of the man and woman's death. Four hundred dollars were found on the mans person, and also some papers which indicate that he belonged in Providence. The bodies will probably be held for two or more days at stahrs undertaking rooms.
 The hotel officials insist that there was no defect in the gas meter, and that they had put enc dollar in, 1t that evening. Whether this is true or not is yet to be determined,

FACULTY TRIo's SUCCESSFUL
 DEBUT.

A, Concert of Fine Quality in College
 Street Hall Last Night-A Large Au-
 dience.
 Under the modest name the Faculty Trio, Professor Knight, Professor
 Troostwyk and Mr Schulz, all mem bers of the teaching staff of the depart
 ment of music, achieved notable suc- cess last night in the first concert of | the seasons series of trio chamber mu- Sic given in College street hall. The ! audience was remarkably large, and its l size may be taken as a measure of the regard in which the people of New Ha- ven hold the gentlemen who make up | he trio. The trio, as it played last night, is not entirely new to public per- formances in this city. It was formed two years ago and gave a series of three concerts, which were all of the finest quality It was the intention to continue the concerts the following year, but MT. Schulz was not with the 1 department. His return to Yale this year made the trio again possible and it was reorganized, everyone hopes per- manently. There is well-defined place for the trio, and there is no doubt about the financial support
 Last nights concert was one of great merit from the first note to the last. There was a perfect sympathy between the performers, and such nice inter- play and balance of the parts of the different compositions that listening was a delight. About the whole con- cert there was perfection of detail and a flneness of finish that one asso- eiates only with musical organizations of long and close association, such as the Kneisels, for instance It is really very remarkable that the Faculty Trio, with comparatively few rehearsals, were able to establish and maintain so complete an understanding and sympa- thy as appeared in their work last night. This indicates better than any thing else what may be expected of the trio if it continues in the field it has entered with such distinguished suc- cess.
 The compositions heard last night were Beethoven's Trio in B flat, opus II; two movements from the Senate in A by Cesar Franck, and Schumann's Trio in D minor, opus 63 The remain ing concerts of the season will be Feb ruary 21 and March S1, both on Thurs day evenings in the same hall.

WANT NEW ROAD ROLLER.

Superintendent of Streets F. S. Ham, ilton appeared before the board pf finance last night, and asked that S2,- 400 be transferred in the department, and used for the purchase Of a new road roller. The new roller will ,cost $5,5OO, but MT. Hamilton stated that two of the older rollers could be dis posed of for $,100, and the money used for the new one which it is desired to purchase. The roller which MT. Ham, ilton wishes purchased is Buffalo- Pitts. No action was taken by the board on the matter.
 The matter of procuring new eouip- ment for the sealer of weights and measures so that he can test the scales use1 by apothecaries and jewels was discussed by the board. MT. Maronev. the ealer of weights and measures es- inmates that the equipment will cost $5OC It is thought, however, that a considerable reduction on this price can be obtained, and the matter was left to Controller Roweto look into.
 An amendment to the section of the charter which has to do with the bond of the sinking fund commission was discussed. The members of the com mission wish the power of appointing one of their number treasurer of the commission, and of requiring him to furnish a sufficient bond, instead of re- quiring bond from each member ,of the commission. At present each of the three men on the commission must fur nish a bond of $25,OOO If the change is made the member of the commission who is chosen treasurer will be reuuir- ed to furnish bond of $75,OOO, and the
