SOCIALISTS AND LABOR
 MEN AT VARIANCE ON
 TRADE SCHOOL QUESTION

New Haven, June 1.-The value of the proposed trade school to the rising generation, was the burning topic be- fore a crowded special meeting of the Trades Council, last night. Dur ing the discussion an address was lis tened to from Vim. Applegate of the socialist party, candidate for lieutenant governor on the socialist ticket, in this state. Mr. Applegate was quoted as saying that he was opposed to the trade school idea in any form. as an education for the benefit of the rich children as against the poor children.
 On this point the speakers for the Trades Council took issue with Mr. Applegate. The various speakers from the council maintained that they were willing to have the children which they represented, taught the trades but that they would insist upon elementary education in the first instance, and then for such a complete course of education in the so-called trades schools that the pupil would be fitted to take up work under any ordinary means of mechanical promotion. This contention will figure in state politics next winter.
 There are two bills in favor of trades schools now before congress, which the manufacturers are opposing and which the American Federation of Labor has endorsed and is fighting for.

THE THEATRES
POLI'S

Those who have read the Augusta
 Evans Ellison novel "St Elmo''. and this week enjoyed the splendid presen- tation of it as a play by the Poli play success to the man who adapted it from the novel. for. contrary wise to the usual precedent, the play has an added charmover the book
 It is common knowledge that novels such as "The Pitt, "The Spoilers and time Uncle Toms Cabin. have not the same interest when dramatized,
 but this is not so in "St Elmo. for better than the book'' is the stereo- typed comment of all who have seen the play. At Polls here the dramatic history of the past several months is repeating itself, for everywhere that ''St. Elmo'' has played it has played to phenomenal attendance
 When one reads the novel one is apt to associate the character St. Elmo with just such a splendid type of phy- sical manhood as is MT. Ince, who gives a most artistic impersonation of this role, and one also finds Miss Fleming in the role of Edna Earl keep ing charmingly within bounds as the writer of the novel would have, her. The same might be truly said of all the other characters in the play, and added commendation must be given the stage director. Mr. Meldon for the splendid production he gives with the characters costumed in strict keeping with the novelist's idea. with the ap- continents and settings precisely as our imagination led us to believe they should be and the artistic effect every where.
 Those who have read the book should surely see the play and those who have not read the book will find in the play a delightful artistic treat. Manager Poli announces for Thurs day afternoon of this week souvenir photo matinee when a splendid auto graphed photo if Miss Deagle the very capable character woman of the com pany, will be given to each lady pa tron in attendance. The photo is the work of the Apeda studio of New York city and is one of the most expensive souvenirs ever given at popular priced house.
 On Saturday afternoon of this week the entire company will give a recep- tion to all attending, and on this oc- casion a new variety of pinks. called the "Alice Fleming will be given to all attending the reception
 At each performance coupons giving the holder the right to participate in the gift next Monday of 112 piece dinner set now on exhibition in the window of the D. M Read Company's sotre are distributed.
 The Poli players have now in re- hearsal for production next week the great western play '"The Great Di- vide", in which Henry Miller and Margaret Anglin scored an unqualified success. MT. Ince who will essay the Henry Miller role has starred in this play for two seasons and it's produc- ton is expected to be the banner dra-
 natic event of the season.

WALDORF INCREASES
 SERVICE TO PATRONS

The Waldorf Lunch. at Main and Elm streets has made a change in it's upstairs service. Hitherto only ladies, or ladies with escorts, have been re- ceiveds in the upstairs restaurant, and they have been obliged to serve them selves.

count for her behavior at dinner and in

those lapses when she lost days at a
time, some one else lived for her, ami
mating the same body. If, as I was not

zeal the truth, Edna, who WAS already
in an angry mood, burst into fury and
