 "A Bowery Camille is a tragedy; there is no use denying it, and on that account it does net receive the spon- taneous applause which greet inferior acts. The plan of. the act is big and the company presenting 1t capable of Interpreting the playlet worthily. Val erie Bergere is an emotional actress, whose character work has placed her in the very front rank of American ac- tresses In this respect and the role Of the Countess de Canal-Street offers her exceptional opportunity for expres, sion. Running through the tragedy is lively bit of humor. from the George Ade-ian slang used by de artists mod el. The act is much out of the ordln- ary run of vaudeville and contains sev- eral thrills.
 The Black Hussars are a group of colored people whose turn was very well received by yesterdays houses. It is one of the biggest companies in its line and as a musical number could hardly be surpassed Their work Oil the drums received great applause.
 For uproarlous laughter the Avon company four are superior to anything seen here in many a long day From lTbL lO ldbL Wdo OllS .4Oll5 lIuSll, JOS | Weber's double as the teacher wa clever and the fighter Sharkey, the young Hebrew Isadore and the boy Tenor are very good at burlesque This part of the show was perhaps best re. ceived as regards volume of applause. | There are dancing comedians anC dancing comedians, but Manager Pol would look long time and travel fol before finding pair who better de. serve the title, Eccentric dancers than Hallen and Hayes.

MT. ,Beckwith was born in Waterford, December "A, 1885, the son of Francis and Amanda Howe Beckwith, and after receiving his edu- cation began work as a bridge build CT on what is now the Shore Line di- vision, which in 1S5s when he be- came connected with 1t, was nearing completion. He remained in this work until 1861, when he entered the e1ia- ploy of sthe New London Northern railroad as a baggagenaster, A year later he entered the freight depart ment of the same road and continued there until April 1871, when he came to Hartford.
 When the Valley road was opened in July of that year he hecaine a passenger conductor, remaining on the
 line in that capacity until his last sickness. MT Reckwith was mem Der of Union lodge A. F. and Al M..

save her kills her, The rest of the tragedy shows his revenge which ends with the death of "Appius" at "Vir- ginius," hands.
 MT. O'Neill's conception of the lead- ing role is that of robust, fearless man who cares for naught but his child. At all times this love predom- mates his acting which is of a very high character. He rose to his most dramatic scenes in the trial of his daughter before "Appius" in the for um. His subtle expressions, the inton- ation of his voice, the scathing scorn of "virginius' " attack on Applus were perfectly depicted. Then the realiza- tion of his helplessness. and the mur- der of his daughter were perfectly done. Mir. O'Neill is possessed of a re- markable stage presence, born of years of expression and voice which is by no means the least admirable of his abilities.
 Miss Alice Fleming, his leading lady, made up the role of Virginia the girlish part that was demanded of it both in appearance and in action. Her work in the scene before "Appius" and her death were most creditably hand led. As "Appius" MT. Charles Herman made the role of the licentious, grasp ing, cowardly ruler, villianous enough to satisfy the most fasHdious, his DOT trayal of the part forming a most ex- cellent contrast to the leading charac- ter. MT. Norman Hackett was good 'sIcilius" and the rest of the cast did all that could be asked ofsher.
 The staging of the tragedy was all that one could ask for, the scenes in the forum and in "Virginius' home being a credit to the art of the stage manager The attention to detail and the lighting effects are responsible for the whole. One of the most effective parts in the entire piece was the tab- leau in the last act where "virginius" is found on the rostrum in the forum with 'fAppius" dead at the foot

.The Life of an Actress.o

At last something new and unique has been reached in things theatrical and theatergoers here will have chance to witness Langdon McCormick's latest effort at the New Haven theater, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights this week and at the matinee Saturday. The Life of an Actress Is the play and in it the author has portrayed the struggles and hardshlps encountered by women climbing the theatrical ladder to fame. A large company of we'll known players will present the piece and Manager Aubrey Mittenthal has provided a production that is equalled by few and surpassed by none, The first act shows dressing room and part of the stage of vaudeville thea ter and gives the public a chance to see what things look like "back of the curtain"

-.-.c, Woman and Song" Meets With

-.--;c, Woman and song' Meets With an Ovation.
 ''Wine, Woman and song," began the week at the New Haven theater, last. night. It was entirely satisfactory in every way Laughter among a large audience was frequent and hearty, The chorus was large and all attractive Many songs were sung and received ovations.
 The performance is a blending of three plots One of these is a vaude- i vile sketch, so there is much variety. At first many prominent actors are im- itated successfully. Meyer Harris, as Pedro Gazino in the opening scene sings effectively "a song proclaiming his search for Marionina, He again ap- pears in another characteristic we'll known character of the music master. This is especially well done and brought forth enthusiastic, merited ap- plause. The other characters we'll known on the New York stage were Robert Mantell, George Cohen Chaun- cey Oleott, Maude Adams, Fay Temple ton and Blanche Bates. Eurico Caruso also was there and the monkey house incident was revived. The Pony Ballet, well known to all, was as welcome as ever.
 No wedding Bells" was cordially re, ceived, sung by Miss Auber and Sam" Tucker, the constable. The whole act was finished of gloriously by re- markable imitation of the Gibson girl by Miss Auber. Her song Come Out land Shine, Oh MT, Boon" had many encores.
 During brief intermisslon the Broadway Quartette," composed of Messrs. storms, Reals, Bennett and Ldndeman, sang in fine style, "Mariucci at Coney Isle,' making special hit.
 "The End of the World" a brief sketch in vaudeville, comes next. Meyer Harris, as Abram Levi, is a close Jew He believes in Oblitsky, a "bum philosopher. Sam, his son, wants to marry Esther. So he doctors up the philosophy book, making it so the end of the world is going to happen and Levi gives him money to insure heay- enly reward
 The next playlet is called "Millin- cry Maids" It is a raging farce and concludes the whole affair. Only three more chances remain to see the per- formance, tonight and tomorrow mat inee and night.

generally employed and yet so harmful, i'll the long run, to most invalids when it's use is long continued, even in small doses, cost Dr. Pierce several years of careful study and labor, with the aid of skilled pharmacists and chemists to assist him. Naturally, he does not caro to give away his scientific and exact processes for preparing these medicines, but he does want to deal in the most open manner with all his patrons and patients, and under this frank, open and honest way of dealing, they may know exactly what they are taking when using his medicines.
 What Do They Cure? This ques- tion is often asked concerning Dr. Pierce's two leading medicines, rGolden Medical Discovery and "Favorite Pre- scription."
 The answer is that cGolden Medical Discovery" is a most potent alternative or blood d-purifer, and tonic or invigor- ator and acts especially favorably in a curative and healing way upon all the mucous lining surfaces as of the nasal passages, throat, bronchial tubes, stom- ach, bowels and bladder, curing large per cent. of catarrhal cases whether the disease affects the nasal passages, the throat, larynx, bronchia, stomach Gas catarrhal dyspepsia) bowels Gas mucous diarrhea) bladder, uterus or other pelvic organs. Even in the chronic or ulcerative stages of these affections, it is often successful in efecting cures. Theu uFavorite Prescription is advised for the cure of'one class of diseases only those peculiar weaknesses, derange- ments and irregularities incident to women. It is a powerful yet gen. tly acting invigorating. tonic and strengthening nervine. For weak ,worn- out, over-worked women-no matter what has caused the breakdown, cFa- vorite Prescription" will be found most effective in building up the strength, regulating the womanly functions, sub duing pain and bringing about healthy, vigorous condition of the whole system.
 Women suffering from diseases of long standing, are invited to consult Doctor Pierce by letter, free. All correspond ence is held as strictly private and sacredly confidential. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
