with meaning. Come, sir" let me
have your information as briefly as
possible. please"
With sundry deviations into side
tracks whence he had to be sharply re-
called, Mr.. Samuel Martin unfolded his
story. He and Shone occupied rooms
together in Cover street, and four
nights previously his patron or partner
or whatever he considered the object
of his alteration had entered their
joint sitting room in sorry plight, care
fully locking the door behind him. His
clothes were mud soiled, and his fore
head, when he removed his battered top
hat. was seen to be disfigured with a
band of sticking plaster. For a long
time he had vouchSafed no explana-
ton, but had paced the room. appar-
emily deep in thought. Martin avowed
that he knew him too well to ques-
ton him when in that mood. but had
watched him with growing apprehen-
sion.
Il am at the parting of the ways,
Martin" he had said at last, flinging
himself YEARLY into a chair. Either

tiers on the roll of fame in the next
few days or l succumb to the only in
dividual in the visible universe who is
my peer in subtlety. And the price of

my life, which has already been at
tempted three times today"
Martin had expressed his sympathetic
horror, and Radford Shone had gone on
to say that he was in active conflict
with a dangerous confederacy of GRIM
inals dominated by one Professor NAL
landine-a cultured predatory who di-
rected worldwide operations in for
gerry blackmail and theft on the grand
scale, with murder as their frequent at
tendant. Shone avowed that he only
needed one link in the chain which he
had woven round Professor Maliandine
to complete his enmeshment and that
of the whole of the gang, after which

Il suggested that the moment the
three days were up l should inform the
police in the event of his not having
returned" was the reply. But Shone
would not hear of it. He insisted that
should let five days go by before TAX
ing that step. We-he had rather a
prejudice against the regular force,
you know, Mr.. Inspector"
That is not unlikely" / remarked.
How is il then, sir, that you have dis
regarded Mr.. Radford Shone's injunc-
ton by reporting to us when only three
clear days have passed? Doubtless you
had good reason?"
The normal expression of Mr.. Sam
uel Martins face was sheepish. though
l could conceive that in happier mo-
ments it had capabilities of impudence.
AT my question his expression grew
more sheepish than ever. Il shall get
into dreadful trouble over tiff you

thing had happened to poor Shone. If
he has really been put away 1 shall

if he wipes the floor with me after

pensation in that, supposing we res
cued him from the clutch of this des-
perate villain?"
Mr.. Martin admitted that he had suf-
fered so much from the rough side of
his friends tongue that he would bear
little more gladly if he could get
bit of his own back" He had no
deed of partnership or any document
showing Shones indebtedness to him.

That the centralization of clever ar lists in every department of musical comedy has wielded a mighty influence in guiding the destinies of Gay New York" which comes to the New Haven theater tonight for three nights and Wednesday matinee, cannot be gain stid, when the reputations of the com edians and singers engaged In this whirliglg of melody and merriment are considered. For instance such con- summate comedians as Harry Finer son, Edward B. Adams Richard Bart lett, James Devine, Harry Scott, In conjunction with many others of gen. uine renown, and such distinguished lady celebitIes as Lillian Hoerlein, Ol- lie Omega, Florence Clements, Mazda H. F'oy, augmented by no less than @ half score as many more famous vo- calists and dancers, all occupy posi- tions of exceptional prominence in this offering of many-slde1 fun and melody merit.
 This marvellous collection of head line talent Is furthermore aided and abetted by bunch Ot feminine loVel- ness, said to outclass in ability as well, and to disport a succession of gown fads and fancies that are simply in- comprehensive, so far as splendor is concerned.

loving nothing better than good de- bate on the floor.
 In the senate the debating material is equally as good. Senator Walsh has splendid equipment and has not been 'foored" once during the session. Sem ator McGovern won the admiration of everybody in the great debate concern ing the itemized expenses of the judges, presenting his report with masterly el- oquence. He was defeated in the vote on the question, but not because of lack of energy or intelligence in the present. ation of his argument.
 President Luther, of Trinity college, 1 is a man of force in the senate and an admirable antagonist. Howard A. Mid dleton, of the Seventh district, is a clear and convincing speaker. A funny incident occurred a few days ago re- lating to Senator Middleton. A stran- ger was trying to find him and inquired where his seat was As the senator was pointed out the inquirer exclaim- ed: What that young fellow!"
 Senators Waller, of New London; Farrell, of Ansonia, and Thompson, of West Haven, are strong men in the senate and able In debate. Senator Judson, of course, is equipped with wit and sarcasm, and makes his mark in every debate in which he takes part. l Of the men who are seldom seen or their feet none have greater influence than Senators Irving Hall Chase, Of Waterbury; r. s. Butterwcrth, Dennis A. Blakeslee and John r. Shanley, of New Haven, and George H. Hall, of Bristol Each of these senators IS held 1 in high esteem in the general assembly.
 There is more or less disposition evil dent in favor of pooling three of the bills now In the hands of the sppropri- ations committee, which involve exten- sive outlays from the state treasury. These bills cover the system of good roads which the state has entered up- on, the state arsenal and armory and the new state library which is to be ereced on Capitol avenue, where the state has acquired a valuable site. These projects cannot be carried out without depicting the treasury to an extent that would be unwarranted, if the necessary appropriations should be made at once. The way out, as viewed by the appropriations committee al present, will be by bonding the state for the amounts required in making the Improvements. Senator McGovern, the chairman of the committee, has ex- pressed the conviction that the project for bonding the state Is the only feasi- ble one in the present situation. He feels that the great outlays involved in completing the highway Improvements through the state and in building the state armory and arsenal and the state library should be distributed over g long period of time. There is a great deal to be said in favor of this course and it's adoption would not De surpris- ing in the least.

Tonight New Haven will be called on again to pass judgment on a new play. The Hyperion is offering the pre- miere of "The Primrose Path,' with Margaret Wycherly in the leading role In the past Miss Wycherly has been associated with Ben Greet, later with Richard Mansfield, and was here last season with "Cashel Byron's Profes- sion." She has also produced num- Der of w. B. Yeats plays. and appear ed in a protean sketch, "In self-De- fense," in which she played in differ ent parts.
 Being possessed of remarkably fine stage presence, and a rich musical voice, her work is always a delight tc the eye and ear. "The Primrose Path is from the pen of Bayard Veiller, who has adopted the eminently sensible plan of refusing to divulge the story of the play in advance of it's presenta. tion, preferrlng that the piece should not be prejudged. but stand or fal strictly on its dramatic merits. He vii only say that the theme of the play is absolutely new, and that eveE tho characters are decidedly out of the or dinary.

"THB sNo VIVIAN"

"Our famous singers usually have a singing teacher at their beck and call" said Vera Michelena, who created the role of the female devil in the Snow Man" Indeed, singing teacher is a natural apendage to an operatio singer. During the rehearsal and at the per- formance singing teachers are always in evidence. They hang about to regu- late periodically the prima donna s voice. This is an absolute necessity, for there are times when the great singers lose all sense of hearing, they do not know whether they gre singing off key, and the singing tOacs must be in touch to lend his ears, as it were, to tho singer Every note of the great singer may be perfect, and perfectly delivered, but the sound waves will not tickle her ears. If there lg a dis- cord she will not know 1t until inform cd by the teacher. He acts as the safe ty valve Such being the case I be- lieve that singing teachers see more in sound, don't you know, than 6 singer or a layman. Especially Is this true of the composers. What unique things Reginald De Koven must see in sound. Certainly music suggests more to him than the ordinary ear whether by vir- tue of training or talent. His pano- rama of life must be broader, there must be more color, more atmosphere, more warmth In his life. You might say that music must suggest Ideas and objects to the dramatic singer, as her facial expression must respond to cer- tain notes. This facial expression Is a responsive chord to the words rather than to tho melody of the song, be- lieve Words express, notes merely suggest. music is not plastic art. And the great singer loses her sense of hearing. and so much must depend up on her histrionic ability"
