AT BROADWAY THEATER.
Dolly Warden.

There was not a large audience at
the Broadway theater on Friday even
ing to witness the presentation OF Dolly
Warden. This was the fourth night
for this company, which opened at
Norwalk this week, and the newness
was apparent, although the company
evidently has the material which will
make success of the play.
There is pretty music and those
capable of handling it with q little
more practice. Solos and chorus num-
bers were well received by the audi
ence and encores demanded Foolish
Questions by ALT Helton, The Song of
the Birds by Miss Fildes and William
Rothacker's Song of the Sword all
pleased immensely, while Dolly Var
den was OF course tuneful and
catchy.
As Dolly, Miss Fildes invested the
part with an abundance of life, and
she has a way of singing little bits
that is fetching. In her disguise as a
boy her dainty little person was even
more fetching than her singing. She
was all the "go'' of the broncho and
uses splendid judgment in all she does.
Naturally Miss Fildes is reminiscent
of Miss Chaser, but she has enough
anything of this nature succeed. While
she was less convincing in the sec
ond act than in the first, she was good
throughout, and certainly deserves all
the praise she obtained from the audi
ence.
AS an osculatory star her brilliance
is of the first magnitude. 1t isn't every
prima donna who can keep the lead
ing man going on prompts sand
WICKED with the kisses. The piece is
prettily costumed and set.
Alden MacClaskie was the Captain
Bellville, George Odell the Harcourt
and William Rothacker the Fairfax
and Lord Gayspark was played by Ali
Helton, well played all the way, and
Bernice Bartlett, ample of voice anG
physique, was the Letitia.

An important real estate deal was
put through on Friday, when James
B. Shannon purchased the Piaut- CAD
den property in Main street east of the
Shannon building, the one-story build
ing on which was destroyed at the time
the Shannon building burned. This
deal has been under way for long
time. the previous owners having de-
cided not to build, owing to the small
lot and the amount of room which
would be occupied by the walls and
doorways necessary IL more than a one
story building was erected, although
directly after the fire it was given out
that they intended erecting six-story
building there.
Mr.. Shannon stated Friday that he
intends to erect building on the
property, which is 20 feet wide and
runs back SO feet. The new building
will be of the same general style as
the Shannon building which 1t will
adjoin and will be either three or four
stories in height. It will be of rein

well" remarks Jerome Beatty, you
fellows may talk about the hot weather
all you please. But know yarn that
beats them all. 1t beats that old
chestnut about feeding hens cracked
ice to keep them from laying hard
boiled eggs: II beats your talk about
taking roasted COOLERS right out of the
hill; II beats the old tale about pop
corn topping all over the field and the
COW freezing to death because she
thought snowstorm had descended
upon her.

UumbreIIa cauqht Fire.

City Expressman O'Brien had an ex-
citing experience Friday afternoon,
whine he discovered the big umbrella
over his wagon seat On fire as he was
passing the Davenport Fire arms shop
on West Main street. Mr.. O'Brien
grabbed the umbrella from it's sock
ct and with the top all ablaze whip
ped his horse up to make speed for the
watering trough at Washington square.
When the trough was reached the
horse thought he was th4re Tor a
drink, leisurely poking his nose into
the basin, but Mr.. O'Brien threw the
burning umbrella into the water I'M
der the horses nose, starting him off
on run, but he was caught before he
had gone far towards Main street.

PURCHASED by JAMES B. SHANNON
PlauC adden Property Secured and New Freproof Build
ing will be Erected at Once-Entrance Through the
Shannon Building

to be bun as in the larger building now
being erected. On the ground moor
there will be store, while the onces
on the floors above will be reached
through the Main street entrance to
the Shannon building.
Owing to the grade Of the street the
ground floor of the new building Will
be lower than that Of the shannon
building, but it will be Of the level OF
the old floor there, it is thought
This purchase is an advantageous
one for Mr.. Shannon, as the new build
ing will probably be erected on the
lines OF the former one, thus allowing
an areaway in the back for light in the
main building Other owners could
have shut OFF that light by building
their wall on their line. The erection
of the building will add to the attrac-
tiveness of the street and be a decid-
ed improvement over the former one
story structure there. This Ike his
many other building operations is an
other instance of Mr.. Shannon's pro-
gressiveness.
