General Cole Orders Change and Crit
 icizes Militia.

icizeS Militia.
 Orders from the office of Adjutant General Cole received in New Haven yesterday afternoon contain the an- nouncement that the armory drill sea son will begin December l, 1907, and continue until June 30, 1908, instead of beginning November as in former years.
 The change Is made so that the men will be in constant training up to the time of departure for camp duty, and is commended on this account, all though also criticized owing to the necessity for heavy drill during the hot month of June.
 The order also states that during time specified December to July, weekly drills of not less than one hour and fifteen minutes each, aggregating five hours each month, must be held.
 A sting in the shape of the following charge was administered to unnamed companies" by the ad1utant general:
 Observations and inspections made during the encampment at Mantle last July showed, in some organiza- tions, lack of instruction and knowl edge of guard duty and military cour- tesy.
 Comment Is unnecessary.
 Tt would seem that pride of or ganization would not allow such a condition to exist"

 He came to this city from Russia 22 years ago and has been alternately liv- ing during that time with his two sons and married daughter.
 The charge against the prisoner John Salvatore, residing at 146 La- fayette street, was breach of the peace The aged complainant testi- fled that he had left the house of his son, Hyman White, S5 Broad street Sunday evening to go to the syna- gogue, and when on Commerce street he encountered the dog owned by Sal vatore The dog, he claimed sprang at his foot, and to protect himself he

"saIomY Jane.''

If it were only for the magnificent scenery. the four acts of MT. Paul Armstrong's adaptation of Bret Hartes story, "salomy Jane which will have its first presentation in this city at the Hyperion, Monday and Tuesday, Oct ' and 8, would be in tensely attractive. At the rise of the curtain a gigantic forest of California redwoods, massive, of imagined lofti- ness, disclose a section of their gran deur to the astonished eye, and the odor of the great pine forest flows through the theater. Especially well managed are the exits into deep ar- boreal gloom. One sees only the lower boughs of the trees, and the Illusion of height is created and also of impen durability, since glints of lights from the sky shine far away between enor- nous boles. The second act has am other view of this forest, with hut the third a similar one, and the fourth In the corral at the edge of the trees, is one of the most beautiful scenes on any stage, with a view of far val ley in the early dawn. But the set> ting of Salomy Jane is only an attrip- ute, not prime essential by any means to the success and popularity of the play, for it has it's own intrins- ic merits.

Cohan's New Piece $50 Miles from
 Boston" Tonight.

Anything that George M. Conan does is interesting to theater-goers, for George has many friends proportlon- ately in this city as he has in New York. Therefore, when 1t was an- nounced that he had written a new play that had made a most emphatic success, and that the Conan & Harris comedians were going to present 1t here at the Hyperion, MT. Cohan's friends began to sit up and take no- tice, and now the enthusiasm has de- veloped into a remarkable advance sale of seats at the Hyperion for to-
 night and Saturday matinee, when 50 Miles from Boston" Is to be presented.
 ''50 Miles from Boston" might aptly be described as a rural musical melo- drama, or we might say comedy drama, for it has the elements of all of these. It has comedy episode, dram atic situations and interesting dramat- ic climaxes. It has two love stories,

Three applications for relief in con- nection with the work on Mill river street were heard in the civil side of the superior court yesterday and the hearings were not completed when court adjourned.

''The Social Whirl," Company Not So
 Good as Seen Here Before.

Good as Seen Here Before.
 Charles J. Ross, assisted by Ben Johnson and the clever work of Mar tin Brown in the role of "Artie Endi- colt" pulled "The Social Whirl" through at the Hyperion last night in fair shape. with the exception of MT. Ross work, however the piece was not even up to the standard 1t made when the original company opened here.
 "The Social Whirl' Is built on old vaudeville sketch lines, namely, the confusion of number of mems names, all of which are "J E. and the ambi- tious work of the son of one of these men who is acting as social reporter for the Social Whirl." There is a love story, but not enough to prevent the introduction of a number of vaga- ries
 Mir. Ross in the role of Julian Endi- cott' was all that could be desired and his own song "Just Kids was the best thing of the evening Credit for the success of this number should also be given to Miss Elizabeth Brice and Ben Johnson. "Just Kids" called for the few honest encores that were given by the audience. Miss Brlce made a very pleasing "Violet Dare" and. Martin Brown was extremely good in the role of "Artie Endicott."
 Miss Adelaide Sharp was not up to the Breezy" standard set by Miss Raymond, the originator of the role, and in spite of her intlmation in the song "Bill Simmons" could not dance "Old Man Manhattan" a new song sung by MT, Ross; Gan You Keep a Secret by Miss Brice and Mir Ross; and Love Among the Freaks" were well rendered and encored.
 There was painful lack of the beauty, attributed to most Casino show girls, in "The Social Whlrl." The chorus seemed also new at their words and a little uncertain as to just what they should do, at times, Their stage business was very ragged and as a whole their singing poor. Having seen the original company here @ person might form the opinion that this new aggregation was depending on the words of three or four, and the fact that the piece had a run in New York to keep it on the road.

Produced by Harold Nelson.

time broke out into merlted applause attended the production of the melo- drama From Broadway to the Bow cry" last evening at the New Haven theater. There are many parts to the piece taken by members of the capa- ble caste and in the two other nights of the engagement a packed house Is sure.
 The subject is the same as that of all other melodramas. Speculation, ruin, poverty-all follow each other in rapid succession. Then come hair raising scenes where the revolver and knife act with a persuasive effect on the human mind.
 The long and short of 1t Is, that Violet Vincent is the object of the af- factions of two different individuals She loves the one, and despises the other. Jonathan Hill, the object of her hate, does all he can to ruin the family; and he does.
 The most thrilling scenes are those In the box factory and in Hop Sings opium joint. In Paddy Flynn's cafe we have strange mixture of humor and pathos.
 The Monarch Comedy Four gives some good singing and Jack Tar does some pretty tall juggling.
 From Broadway to the Bowery'' will be seen again tonight and to- morrow, afternoon and evening. The play will not lack large audiences.

'Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hal

The emphatic triumph which sig nalized the appearance of Miss Ger trude Shipman in Ernest Shipman's beautiful production of Dorothy Yer non of Haddon Hall" has been fully sustained in the subsequent perform ances and bids fair to be. repeated in this city when they appear at the New Haven theater on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights next week and at the matinee Wednesday. Paul Kester's clever dramatlzation of Charles Majors widely read histori- cal novel brings into the fullest light Miss Shlpmans wonderful attain ments in comedy and powerful emo- tion.
 MT. Shipman has surrounded Miss Shipman with a company of such capable strength that the entire dramatic rendering is of most satisfy ing excellence. Liberality and good taste are conspicuous and striking architectural effects, the scenes of Haddon Hall and notably that of the terrace with it's rich foliage and clinging creepers being scenic master pieces. The production of Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Halp' is proving the greatest kind of a success else ! where, both from an artistic and pop ular standpoint, and judging from this fact the engagement here should be a most successful one, as Miss Ship man has many friends among the theatergoers of this city.
