BROADWAY THEATER.
The Cook Players in "The Prince
 Chap"

It is a fact now generally we'll known that Miss Helen Pullman, who will be seen here as Claudia in "The Prince Chap" at the Broadway theater this evening, is accounted the most accom- pliehed child actress on the American stage today. She plays with a natu- ralness grace and an intelligence that might be well copied by some of her elders who aspire to more preten- tfous parts. She is a remarkably beau tiful as we'll as talented child, and the future contains a large amount of suc- cess for her. Aside from her appear ance in "The Prince Chap" Helen Pullman has supported Ezra Kendall in -Weatfler Beaten Benson, was with Ethel Barrymore in "A Dolls House." and has played various other stage children.
 Her sister. BeryI who also plays Claudia in the first act of "The Prince Chap" is another charming little girl and actress. Although the children are young in years, they are old in stage experience. Beryl was with the Metropolitan Grand Opera company playing Trouble in the production of Mine. Butterfly" She also played the same role with Henry W. Savage's 8 English production of Puccinis famous opera of Japan. She has supported Ethel Barrymore in "A Dolls House. played Bessie in Cape Cod Folks and Egil in "The Viking at Helegland"

THE AUDITORIUM.

Especially attractive to the children wiA be this weeks Saturday matinee, on account of the appearance of Prof. Charles Carlos Animal Circus MT. Carlos has three of the prettiest and best trained ponies that ever appeared in vaudeville or circus, as well as sev- eral clever dogs and birds. One of these intelligent little horses is valued at more than ope thousand dollars
 Another act which always amuses the ladies and children is the one pre- scented by James McDuff, the ventrilo- duii mimic. who is very truthful in his many limitations. The Marshalls, two clever colored entertainers, sing some good ragtime and also introduce catchy piano selections.
 Miss Francis adds much to this en- tertaining bill with her English songs.
 Miss Morelle today will sing the catchy illustrated song. Poverty.
 The motion pictures for the end of the week are entitled The Crooked Path, The Light That Came. etc.

BREED THEATER.
UnexoeIisd Programme of High Class
 Motion Pictures.

The many patrons of the Breed the ater yesterday were regaled with one of the best programmes of the season. one which for variety and beauty of subjects and intensity of dramatic &C., ton is seldom equalled. The especial ly novel picture entitled Sealed h. structions, appeals to all, because of the most accurate impersonation of President Taft in the scene at the White House. There is a clever melo- dramatic vein running through the en- tire picture. and the unusually novel climax Is as thrilling as could be im- agined.
 There is very fine picture entitled The Lonely Bachelor, in which the drama and comedy is so connected that the audience follows it with interest unabated to the very pretty close of the picture Miss Wolcott is charm ing her hearers with her sweetly beau- tiful rendition of the vocal arrange Tnent of Hearts and Flowers

Santa Claus to Be at Porteous &
 MitcheU's


 Santa Claus has sent word to the Porteous & Mitchell company of this city that he has left his summer home at the North Pole and will arrive at Norwich on Saturday afternoon. He will bring with him "Myah," his Es- quimaux assistant, and as usual will make his headquarters at the Porteous & Mitchell company's store from now until Christmas.
 Whilst De nave every assurance that Santa Claus can never grow old, yet of late years he has developed some of the characteristics which come with advancing years, in his love of home and his reluctance to dispense with homo comforts. In order that he might be surrounded as much as pos sible with the comforts of his northern home. the Porteous & Mitchell com pany. at considerable expense, has had his own Igloo transported from the snow-capped hills of the Arctic circle and erected in their large display win dow, so that when Santa Claus arrives on Saturday he will be most pleasantly surprised. He extends a general in vitation to his little friends to be on hand to greet him upon his arrival Saturday afternoon.
