POLI'S.

The greatest advance sale in the history of Polrs is announced for next week by reason. of the fact that not only the greatest bill ever booked will inaugurate the New Year, but the bill will positively scintillate with fea- lures. John E. Ince the most popular stock actor that has ever played Bridgeport and man who numbers friends and admirers here by the thousands will be seen for the first time in vaudeville here with Patty AL llson another big stock favorite and Ernest Robertson in a sketch Of gambling l.fe in Arizona, called "The Man Who Lost" with Mr. Ince in a western character a line in which he particularly eXcels. The role is s'm- liar to one which he played in sThe Great Divide.' On the bill will also appear two more headline acts Lillian Herle'n, the beaut full and stunning songstress who comes here direct rom one of the most successful en- agreements ever played by a vaude- vile actress in Europe and the posi- tive rage of London. Berlin, Paris and Vienna and also will appear Mrs. Gardner Crane and company in the mirthful offering "The Little Sun beam' the laughing hit of American vaudeville. In addition to this .trio
 
 troduce for the first time in any thea tre in the world R. A. Herbsts Bright Light Motion Pictures, the scientific sensation of the century for the req son that the motion pictures will be shown With all the lights in the thea tre burning brilliantly, a positive con- tradsction of the light and darkness theory which exists. MT. Herbsts brilliant inventor has had his men here for three days perfecting the ap- paratus and the showing of the pie lures will mark a new era in this line. On the same bill will appear Me Aleavys Marrels, the Jumping wond- CTS; James B. Donovan and Rean Arnold: Three Warrants and Thaleros Circus, making a bill that will surely pack the theatre to the roof at each performance.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

Pineapple crystals is a dainty dish, made of one slice of preserved pine apple inside a round of transparent lemon jelly.
 A good-sized crust of bread placed fin a kettle in which caulifiower or cabbage is cooked will prevent a dis agreeable odor.
 Economical housewives sometimes grind tea leaves, just as they do cof- fee. They claim that only half as much tea is needed.
 An old piano stool will be found useful in the kitchen, for it may be adjusted to different heights to save backacheS.
 Surg cal adhesive plaster of the sort that has a rubber base may be used to good effect in repairing holes in rubber gloves.
 Clothes sprinkled with boiling wa ter instead of cold will dampen much more readily. and, in consequence. can be ironed more quickly.
 To keep cork linoleum in good con- dition wipe 1t off daily with a cloth wrung out in tepid water, and once a week with skinned milk.
 For a good swab for cleaning small phials. test tubes, etc, use a piece of the round leather belting sold by deal CTS in sewing machine supplies.
 If a small piece of zinc is burned in with the coal occasionally it will coat the interior of the chimney so that soot will not form upon it.
 Do not rub fabrics roughly between the hands when cleaning them. It will be found sufficient to rub the cleaning fluid in gently with a fresh cloth.
 Sponges are great germ collectors; they should be thoroughly scalded fre- quentIy; and hot-water bottles should be washed, inside and out, with strong suds.

BOSS MURPHY, TO PICK NEXT
 US. SENATOR
Especial from United Press.)


 New York, Dec. 30-Charles F. Mur- phy, boss of Tammany Hall, will pick the Democratic successor to Chaun- cey M. Depew, in the United States Senate at a series of conferences which will begin in the Ten Eyck Hotel in Albany, tomorrow. These conferences will be similar in character to those held in Rochester at which the suc- cessful ticket at the recent election was named.
 Murphy will see every Democratic chieftain in the State and will listen to the plea of each. Then he will make up his mind and the man he port of the Tammany delegation in the legislative caucus. thus ensur;ng success.
 The exodus towards Albany set in. today, and will be in full swing to- morrow. While ostensibly everyone is going to see the first Democratic Gov ernor in years sworn in, the real rea- ready overshadowed all other fights. The friends of Edward M. Shephard and William Fl. Sheehan have become so insistent that if either is named there must be real soreness among the followers of the defeated candidate.
 Because of that fact, there Is a growing feeling that a dark horse may be selected and there has been hurrying and seurrying. today, to get out lightning rods and burnish them up. The turning down of ThoS. F. Grady, by Charles F. Murphy, has amazed the politicians. Grady has had the Murphy 70. K.'' on his ambi- ton to be president, pro tenn of the Senate, ever since election. When he went to Albany. week ago, he felt so secure that he q scussed committee assignments with his intimates.: Things developed there, however, which re- suited in a number of the State off cers-elect sending a united protest to Murphy against Grady being given the desired honors and these protests were of such character that Murphy reluc- tantly turned down the Tammany wheel horse.
 While Grady continued defiant, to- day, and said he would go into the Senatorial causcus, next week, and would demand that the members elect who are pledged to him, keep their word and vote for him for temporary president, it is confidently expected that he will see the futility of mak- ing a fight and will ''be reasonable" |" It is pointed out at Tammany Hall that Grady is being '1et down easy'' and that if he starts to fight and en- deavor to tie up the Senate by a comb nation with the Republicans there are ways in which he may be disciplined It was even suggested that his alleged connection with the poolroom situation might be made an object of official scrutiny as all the documents in the case are still avail able.
 Because of the Grady row there will be no attempt to fix up a committee slate in the Senate until the caucus is held, next week.
