PoLps NEW THEATER.

Fuji-Ko who Is to take a leading part in the production of The Mikado, by the Poli Opera company at Poli's this week was seen by a reporter at rehearsal yesterday and consented to talk for few moments about her life.
 Fuji-Ko was dressed in the habill- ments of American civilization when she was pointed out to the reporter in her position at the rehearsal Coat suit of soft coored pongee, large hat which rested gracefully on top of a mound of black hair with lace veil thrown back from her face and tiny brown suede shoes with enormous high heels made up her costume, "Do you prefer American dress?' asked the reporter. T do-in Ameri- ca," replied Fuji-Ko, in her pure but slightly accented English Tn Japan where the furnishings are simple and one sits on mats on the floor I prefer Japanese apparel
 The rest of the girls attlred in kimonos led the reporter to ask what was the proper pronunciation of kilno- no, lis 1t kim-o-no or ki-no-no, with the accent on the second syilable?" continued the reporter.
 Tt is neither, the accent is placed evenly on all three syllables. It Is hard for any English person to say correetely that kim-o-no."
 "Well, now tell me about yourself?"
 q was educated in England, am college woman and went to school there for many years. Then decided to go upon the stage and all last sea- son I played at Sir Charles Wynd- hams theater in London, doing Jap anese songs and dances and accom- panying myself on the samisen. My success there led me to come over here.'

 l Elaborate preparations are being made at Polls to make this revival oi the Mikado one of the best ever seen | in this city.

AT THE LOCAL THEATERS.
HYPERION THEATER.

The eminent tragedian MT. Jacob P. Adler who became famous for his por- trayal of "Shylock" in Shakespeare $ Merchant of Venice, will make his first appearance in New Haven for one night only at the Hyperion theater, Wednesday evening next with prom inent cast of players in a dramatiza- ton of Lord Tennyson's poem, Enoch Arden, from the pen of Jacob Gordin who wrote "The Rreutzer Sonata. The play is entitled The Stranger
 Mir. Adler has arranged a guest tour through the principal cities of the United States and makes his first step in this city.
 Naftule Herz Levin, prominent Russian agitator, has been innoeently outlawed to the prison of Sibera, and his wife Blume, with their two chil- dren, for ten years awaits his return.
 In the meanwhile his cousin, Phineas Staradov, who is madly in love with her presses his suit telling her that she needs q father for the children and after being convinced by her parents and the Reverend that she would be doing right in accepting her cousin, the two are married and remove to America where they would be un- known.
 Phineas becomes a lawyer and under an assumed name is very prosperous.
 Two years before their removal to America, Levin has escaped from sl- beria, and during those two years seeks his wife and children and then finds them
 This brings the most dramatic and interesting climax any human mind could conceive. MT. Adler here has the opportunity of exploiting his tre- mendous power and forcefullness and also repression.
 It Is similar to some of the scenes in the Merchant of Venice" and those of the New Haven patrons who have not seen MT. Adler as ''Shylock" will be able to witness his best scene in the Stranger"
 Mir. Adler will be supported by such artists as Mme Adler Miss Frances Adler, his daughter, who graduates from Sargent's Dramatic school in English, MT. Morris Moskowitz, MT Joseph Kessler, MT. Henry Ginzburg and Mme. Mary Epstein.

COURT DECISIONS
 CIVIL AND CRIMINAL Supreme and Superior Court Judges to Appoint
 Clerks.
LOCAL APPOINTMENT
Keeps Everyone Guessing Supreme Court of Errors
 Will Meet Tomorrow.

At Hartford to-day the judges on the supreme and superior court benches will meet to choose the clerks of the superior court. The local interest in the meeting centers about the appoint ment of the superior court clerk in this city. It seems practically settled that Clerk Edward A. Anketell is to be re- tired. The selection of his successor appears to have everybody guessing The two assistant clerks, John s. Fow- Ter and John c. Gallagher, are both backed by their friends, and it has been generally supposed that one or the oth- CT would land the coveted berth. But la new candidate has appeared in the person of Assistant State Attorney Al fred N. Wheeler, who has been second in command with State Attorney Will Hams.
 It is thought that an outsider may be
 named to prevent any dissension in the office. New Haven lawyers are taking a great interest in the appointments.

CHILDREN SHOWED IT
Effect of Their Warm Drink in the
 Morning.

"A year ago I was a wreck from cof- fee drinking and was on the point of giving up my position in the school room because of nervousness.
 ''I was telling a friend about it and she said, We drink nothing at meal time but Postum Food Coffee, and it is such comfort to have something we can enjoy drinking with the children.
 q was astonished that she would allow the children to drink any kind of coffee. but she said Postum was the most healthful drink in the world for children as we'll as for older ones, and that the condition of both the children and adults showed that to be a fact.
 My first trial was a failure. The cook boiled it four or five minutes and it tasted so fit that l was in despair but determined to give it one more trial. This time we followed the direc- tlons and boiled it fifteen minutes after the boiling began. It was decided success and I was completely won by its rich delicious flavor. In short time I noticed decided improvement in my condition and kept growing better and better month after month, until now I am perfectly healthy, and do my work in the school room with ease and pleas ure l would not return to the nerve destroying regular coffee for any money."

Court Ignores Decree.

Ignoring the fact that an Iowa court
 had already granted a divorce to Mrs.
 Edna B. Platt upon her application,
 Judge Silas A. Robinson, in the su- perior court in this city, has given a decree to Herbert N. Platt, of S27 Whit ney avenue, in his action against his
 wife on the ground that Mrs. Platt had committed blgamy
 Platt is a machinist and is employed at Winchester's. In 1902 he married Edna B. Garter, who came here from
 Ossage, Iowa. Three months after their marriage the couple separated, Mrs. Platt returning to Iowa. Last December Platt instituted divorce pro-
 ceedings in the courts here. Before
 the case reached trial 1t was discover ed that Mrs. Platt has obtained di- vorce from her husband on November l IT, 1904. in Iowa.
 It appears that the only notice of Mrs. Platt's suit was given in news paper in Iowa. and her husband was ignorant of the proceedings. She al- lleged that her husband had deserted
 her.
 Mrs. Platt was married to Frank
 Crane, of Ossage, on the same day that she got her decree.
 When the situation was presented to
 Judge Robinson by Attorney Goodhart, counsel for Platt, the court refused to recognize the Iowa decree and held that
 Mrs. Platt was a bigamist and gave a decree to her husband. The case of Miss isabelle shaler against the Rev. Charles S. Bullock
 has been withdrawn from the court docket.

Fashion FanCieS

Conspicuous among the new models
are many charming evening frocks, one
of which. made of tucked cream colored
mousseline de sole, tulle and lace. An
other unusually pretty one is made OF
grey tulle over grey chiffon. 1t is
trimmed with wide and narrow ribbons
of silver gauze. and garlands of small
pink rosebuds-and the rose-colored
silk lining shimmers bewitchingly
through the grey oyer-dress. A maize
colored silk muslin is simply trimmed
with bands of maize chiffon tafTeta. and
above these bands a delicate tracery
of yellow soutache is applied TO the
muslin. The moderately wide girdle Of
taffeta is decorated with buttons of yell
low enamel, and the elbow sleeves and
round neck are finished with a narrow
facing of maize colored velvet. Elab-
crate evening frocks are made of gauze
and lace, weighted with gold lace and
bullion, or glittering with sequins; and
of crepe de chine and thin satin trim
med with lace and curious embroid-
cries; but some of the smartest even
ing frocks are made of black materials
black tulle, lace. satin and crepe de
chine-trimmed with lace and embroid-
cred. Many show the tunic effect
which is always graceful. particularly
when carried out in thin materials.
In one case the tunic-an exquisitely
shaped affair Of delicate lace, unlined.
falls straight from the shoulder; bat
it is most cunningly arranged so as
to show off the slim figure of the
wearer-and TO wear a tunic with any
grace one must have a slender figure.
Quite new idea-or rather an old
fashion revived-is the tight fitting
redingonte of satin or velvet with a
