AT BROADWAY THEATER.
"Paid in Full"

paid in Full" the story of Ameri-
can life by Eugene Walter, which has
been seen here before, was presented
at the Broadway theater on Tuesday
evening to a well pleased audience,
which so liked the work of the COM
pany Of seven that repeated curtain
calls were given after each act.
A decidedly favorable impression was
created by Miss Blanca West in the
role of Mrs. Brooks, her handling of
the role being with skill and finish,
and particularly strong was she in the
scene with the captain and the closing
scene with her husband. Fulton Rus
sell as the husband did a clever bit of
work throughout the four acts, while
Frederick M. Conklin as James Smith
made the most of his interesting role
us peacsmake-, and Tom Burroughs as
Captain Williams was typical sea
captain, with a gruff exterior but a
warm heart. May Estelle as Mrs
Harris was good as the faul finding
mother-in-law, while Margaret Fer
rard as the sister and Adrian H. Ros-
ley as the Japanese servant pleased
The play was well staged and the
return was heartily welcomed,as shown
by the amount of applause.

ANOTHER ADDITION
TO LOCAL INDUSTRIES
Will Be Started in Whites Court by
Norwich Automatic Feeder Co.


Next Monday, according to the plans
Of those In charge. the Norwich Au-
tomato Feeder company, which makes
an automatic exerciser and feeder for
poultry, will start its new fsctory go
ing in the Central Industrial build
ing On Whites court. adding a new
one to the local industries. Since
spring the company has been making
its feeders by hand at the tin shop of
its vice president, ]. H. Tompkins,
but the demand has so far exceeded
their ability to supply them in that
way that the company has equipped
a plant to do the work by machinery
and will be able to turn out 800 per
day.
For the new factory, the top floor
of the Hiscox, or Central Industrial
building. has been leased, machinery
specially designed has been purchased
and installed, so that all the work
but the casting of some of the metal
parts, will be done here. The article
made is chicken feeder of galvanized
iron, with an ingenious arrangement
by which the bird scatters the grain
itself and when the chicken is not
picking at the bait bar the grain is
kept protected in the can at the top
of the feeder. The company is
crowded with orders for the new feed
er AS it has met with instant approval
when shown, and il is having the call
in the poultry section of the middle
west. The company has not yet made
much of an effort to introduce it in a
very extensive territory. as they have
been kept too busy manufacturing,
stated Harry II. Walker, secretary
and treasurer
There will probably be from ten to
a dozen hands employed. The COM
pany is to be incorporated its off1cers
being Frank Enos, Jr., president: J.
H. Tompkins, vice president, and
Harry H. Walker, secretary and
treasurer.

holders.
The officials are at work upon the
reorganization scheme, and $500, 900 of
the bondhoiders are favorable and
about two-thirds of the creditors also
favor the plan. Others remain to be
seen. Provided the plan of reorgna-
