J.p.n.. Invasion a. tn. Putnam Fair

Much praise has ebeen given to the
Japanese and to her famous soldiers.
Great interest centersr around their
country, costoms and pastdmes. Al
the Putnam fair, Sept. ! and 2, full
opportunity will be given to study the
Japanese at close quarters,as the great
est troupe Of entertainers ever brought
to this country has been secured and
the wonderful acrobatic and equilibris-
tic feats presented are simply MARVEL
ous.
The Kadura Imperial Japanese troupe
numbers ten and their interpreter.
They have been in America less than
two years, during which time they
have appeared in almost every large
city, besides being engaged at the
New York hippodrome last season for
nearly twelve weeks. Their costumes
show the splendor of the Orient and
their. work Is of high character. Moth
ing like their work has ever been wit
messed in this country, and they are
sure to be a big sensation. This ex-
ira expensive act is only one of the
big free attractions to all who attend
the Putnam fair. Their exhibitions
will be given on an elevated stage in
the open air opposite the grand stand.
Many Of the tricks and feats they will
perform are entirely new in this coun-
try. IN pyramid work they never have
been eXcelled. The remarkable Iedts
that they perform in this class Of work
have heretofore only been seen among
the greatest and most skilled of Ara
bian acrobafic troupes. Double slack
wire acts, double perch acts, ''risley
work" their slide for life while stand
ing erect on rope and many other
remarkable feats makes the greatest
performing troupe ever brought to this
country. If you miss this feature you
will miss one of the greatest attrac-
lions ever brought TO fair in eastern
Connecticut. See adv. today for other
big attractions.

THE AUDITORIUM.


The bills announcing the reopening
Of the Auditorium have caused muce
favorable comment and no doubt the
opening performance Monday after
noon, August 80, will serve to draw a
large number of the old patrons as
well as, mary new ones. 1t is the in
tention of the infringement in the
course of aJfew weeks to change the
entire. vaudeville section of the pro-
gralnme twice weekly, Monday and
Thursday. This will Of course neces-
sitae considerable added expense, but
the management feels confident that
the increase in attendance will recon-
pense them In this way patrons Wis
iting the theater Monday and Thurs
day of the same week will see two en-
ttreiy different shows.
It was the intention of the manage
Yr1ent to open the season in this way,
but IL was impossible to complete the
necessary arrangem ents in time
The vaudeville programme headed
by the Wally Trio. newly imported
European acrobatic act, contains a
great variety of numbers in which will
be found something to please every
body. This trio of European gym
nasts introduce some remarkably clev-
er head and hand balancing intermin-
gled with snappY ground tUHbllng.
Merrill and Norman present neat
singing and dancing speciality in which
the sweet singing of the lady and the
eccentric dancing of the gentleman are
particularly conspicuous.
A bowling comedy number introduce
ed by the musical mokes," Robinson
and Gaten, will no doubt be one of the
hits Of the show. This pair of versatile
burnt corkers" are musicians of ex-
ceptional merit and are comedians of
the front row.
Nan Evans, a sprightly character
coincidence, will introduce the latest
comedy song hits, sung in her own in
inlitable manner.
Last but not least on the bill we
will have "the lady with the big voice
Jennie Edwards, whose pictured bal :
lads promise to become a pleasing and
permanent feature of the entertain
ment.
