head in his hands. 81 loved you,

to see his young wife regarding him
with shy, tender eyes, and in a mo-

TO scold you dreadfully, but-but l
can't, Why didn't you tell me long

He turned the small flushed face
toward the light and the method he
used to silence her was very eff
fective-and satisfactory.

COLONEL MACDONALD BACK
Returns from Insurance Convention
at Detroit

Hartford, Aug. 5l.-Colonel Theodore
H. Macdonald, insurance commissioner
returned last night from Detroit, Mich.
where he was in attendance at the ma
tional convention of the association OF
Insurance commissioners. Colonel Mac
donald was reelected member Of the
executive committee of the association.
Colonel Macdonald read paper on
smplihed forms of policy for health
and accident insurance. He commended
the two insurance companies In this
line Of insurance which come under his
supervision. All the papers were pre-
pared with a due regard for a safe
conservatism that would encourage in
stead of annoy companies in their bus
mess. The life and fire policies were
found to be. on the whole, quite sat
isfactory. There were some suggestions
for the Improvement Of miscellaneous
policies. The association referred all
suggestions to committees to make re-
ports at the next convention.
Colonel Macdonald thinks that

BILE williams and walker opened the
theatrical season of 190s-l9o9 at the
Hyperion last evening The aggrega-
ton was irresistibly funny, especially
when the headiners were on the stage.
The singing was excellent and the
dancing was good. what more can be
said OF show OF this class?
Williams and Walker are by no
means unknown In New Haven, but
they certainly have never appeared TO

Bud Jenkins, who is locally known in
Georgia, where the play takes place,
as Bon Bon BuddIe, TO act as guard

quired so much money.
One thing seems 10 be regretted in
the production, What n splendid OPP
portunity there would be with such a
company OF colored people for singing
IN harmony without any orchestral
accompaniment did not seem to be
realized by the producers. Nowhere
could be gathered together a musical
company so naturally gifted In this
sort Of singing than one Of coored
people. Yet last evening there were

Ninety and Nine" at the Grand
Greeted by a Large
p, Audience.
FAUST lMPRESSES AT POLLS
Two Audiences Yesterday Delighted
With Splendid Production OF
"a Masterpiece.

In presenting 1.-THE Ninety and Nine
the management Of the Grand Opera
house Is consistently following out its
policy of presenting only strong attrac-
tions. Popular prices prevail and "The
Ninety and Nine" is a drama well cal
culated to earn the seal OF public APP
proval. The basis Of the play Is a
mans moral and physical destruction
at the hands OF woman and his sub
sequent regeneration brought on by the
influence Of good girl. The play has a
highly moral trend which is coupled
with the melodramatic and is inter
spersed by many touches of comedy
Miss Bayonne Whipple is very fetch
ing heroine and the opposite part is
ably taken by William Marble. jr. The
rest Of the cast is very good. The seen
&C. effect In the third act where Ton
Silverton drives a locomotive through a
seethng mass Of fire and fame car
only be described as thrilling.

Mass. at which 1t was voted not to
accept the summer home of the late
Mrs. J. T. S. Porter, which she left by
will to the town for country club uses.
The expense of maintenance is the
reason the town declines the gift, but
II is believed that the place may pass
into the hands of the new Blandford

OF this city, is president Mrs, Porter
