MT. John Cort for a term of years. with provision that he shall be sup piled with new play every year by a successful author, and placed for an annual engagement on Broadway. MT. Figman brings with him an elab- crate production and a cast of clever players including the delightful actress Miss Helen Holmes, Miss Clara Lou Miss Ceta Woodland Bennett and Mes SITS. Morgan Wallace, Wilson Forbes, John c. Brownell, Frank H. Rain ger, George Centre, Ernest P. Orr, Reginald Fife, Marhsall Franklin, Ed ward Johnson and John Pearson.
 "The man on the Box was a happy selection for MT. Figman's tour inas- much as the title role fits him as though it were written expressly for him. He is the very personification of the flashing army officer who falls in love with pretty girl on steamer, later by mistake abducts her and af- terWard when she seeks to turn the joke upon him and find out his iden- tity accepts her offer to be her groom, in order that he may be near her al- ways. This material furnishes abun- dant opportunity of comedy of the fin est calibre and at the same time con- tains all the elements of a play of deep heart interest. The dialogue $ crisp and witty and the dramatic situ- ations in many instances profoundly impressive and interesting. A note worthy feature in connection with this engagement is that it is one of the few opportunities where a syndicate town can see what was originally an anti-syndicate success. (

NEW HAVEN MORNING JOURNAL COURIER THURSDAY OCTOBER o lso7
FIND WORK FUR YALE MEN MANY GOOD POSITIONS New York City Club Has a
 Waiting List at
 Good Pay.

The committee on business informa- ton of the New York City Yale club is doing a successful work in bringing together Yale men who have positions to fill and Yale men who want posi- tions, the undertaking having met with the approval of those who are ac- quainted with it. Yale men in busl- ness prefer to fill their positions with Yale men, an1 the younger Yale men will recognize the advantage of the friendly interest their employers will have in them through common college associations. The committee has worked for several years in quiet way, and has been able to place a great many Yale men in excellent po- sitlons, both permanent business and professional openings and lucrative summer vacation work. The apprecia- tion of this service is now reflected in the fact that the men previously help ed are sending to the committee for men to fill the vacancies in the firms whose management they now share.
 The positions to be obtained through the committee are not only in New York city. There are opportunities in various parts of New England and western states, and one of the plans for the future is to extend the work throughout tho country by means of cooperative organizations in the Yale clubs of all large cities. The work of the committee is not confined to the starting of inexperienced men, for there are often opportunities for men of experience in various lines.
 The work of the committee has been better understood among employers than among men that are looking for positions. Consequently, the commit tee has been somewhat hlnderca. by a scarcity of men--not of opportunities for them. This is a remarkable condi- ton, probably without precedent in
 any employment bureau, and particu.
 larly noteworthy aga time of money stringency and dull business, when i was predicted that the committed
 would not be able to place the mer
 who applied. The appreciation show l by employers is in itself gllarante
 of success, but more men are needet
 to fill positions promptly, if the em l ployers' interest is to be increased.
 At present the committee has in it
 files a large number of positions fo F both experienced and inexperience | men, paying from $50 down to S5 q week. Men are needed immediately t fi, these positions, and if they ar ? filed promptly, an increase in tn
 number and quality of opportunities
 assured.

If he had been present that the audience were as ready to roast him as was the speaker, If clapping of hands, etc, was any criterion.
 Aside from this incident the meet l ing was void of any excitement, repcrts not accepted at previous meeting were accepted S1O0 yea. more vot- cd to the assessors, who have a large amount of extra business There arc over three hundred changes in proper- ty titles a year now, the work of the assessors and town clerk increasing every year. Twenty thousand dollars was voted for road improvements. We are bound to have good roads, and we want them for good people to ride over, whether in autos or otherwise, A little talk was indulged in that the action of the town derive men of money who owned autos out of town In the sum- mer time, no doubt it does those who can't do just as they like to, so with the burglar, the forger, the men like Walker of New Britain, No doubt Walker has poor opinion of New Britain authorities who offered the re- ward for hls apprehension, and he will neyer-no never-come back there tc spend his money, unless he Is caught but if the authorities of New Britain had only thought to have had Walker photographed, when he was skiddooine away from that naughty, mean town or they had set out by the road side with spy glass-if they only had would Walker, stlll be awalking where no one disturbs him not?
