II you have an idea, it's out.
That's what New Thought says.
And no doubt renowned little Po-
cahontas, who has .stood alone on
very elevated pedestal for three
centuries, is sadly shaking the tall
feathers of her remarkable head
dress over it, off somewhere in the
realms percolated by rays OF New
Thought.
For what have the new fashions
gone and done but taken the little
princess idea and made it over
into a new tangled Pocahortas hat,
regal and high and wonderful to
behold.
Captain John Smith, wandering
about in solitary forests and glens
and forsakennesses generally, sud
denly came upon a startling vision
of dusky loneliness, surmounted by
crown of pure white feathers
two feet high.
What more natural for an Eng
lishman to inquire, Where are
you going, my pretty maid?'
ITO that pond over there to look
at myself, SIR" she said with her
def fingers.
May I go with your he then
ventured, and Pocahontas bowed
till her wonderful feathers lay at
the gallant's feet, for it was also
before the prick of hat pins.

With this we can sincerely state that the show cannot fail 10 please.
 A Miss Dolly bupree played in a most fetching style the heroine who as well as her father mine. Is coveted by rapacious' Mormons. Charles Wright makes a manly hero and seven Sioux add bits Of local color. The entire cast is irreproachable and the thrilling scenes have a grip and hold with them which must be seen to be realized. II l.; really marvellous how the manage ment can produce show like thls at popular prices. In short this Is a breezy western show given by western people; one with vim. fire snap. one which borders on the sublime and Is ilumin- ated by touches of comedy, high class drama of the modern American type and one which, at its first pro- duction firmly entrenched itself in the favor of the New Haven public.

The best of all American plays deal ing with graft, financial. political and social. "The Lion and the Mousse Is coming to the Hyperion. Thursday, September T.. Since the remarkable work of Charles Klein was first se)en here, many things have occurred which make the return of the drama a matter of psychological interest, In view of the numerous cases against the trusts and captains of industry. which are now before the courts. Five years ago "The Lion and the Mouse" would have been a failure, for the simple req son that the public did not ask "where did he get it?" but rather 'how much ia he worth ?''
 When the play was first produced the insurance scandals were just reaching the public nostrils, then came the ac- ton against trusts and the railroads and the public at large discovered that the so-called leaders in high finance were little short of pirates.

N C., a commission which he has held with much distinction for number of years. His resignation will mean the election of a new major, and probably repetition of the warm time the officers of the regiment had a few years ago when Major Norton of Wallingford beat out Captain Dan iel F Fitzpatrick of Company C. Wa terbury Tn that contest Captain Ftiz- patrick lost the support of some of the Waterbury officers and was defeated
 Captain Fitzpatrick will be a candi date again in case Major Tilson re- tires He Is the senior captain of the regiment. but has been turned down at previous elections by officers who fa- vored Major Norton and Major Ishell. A hot fight took place when Major Norton was elected In that contest three commissioned officers of Com pany A voted against Captain Fitspat- rick Major Norton was elected and since then there has been considerable feeling against Company As captain by the friends of Captain Fitzpatrick Captain Carter was himself a candl- date for the majority, but, failing In his own aspirations. he declined 10 support Captain Fitzpatrick
 With a talked of vacancy among the majors the officers of the regiment are already thinking of a successor. At the republican state convention in New | Haven last week one of the officers of l the New Haven company was heard 10 say to an ex-military man of water l bury:
