 batic act of Collins and Hart, the
 worlds famous comedy strong men, tre all this week. it is no small won der that this famous team have long been acknowledged one of vaudevilles most prominent and best liked fea- lures, and one of its highest priced acts. Their act is a novelty, unique Tn its originality. and interspersed throughout. with the cleverest of pan ton1m1c comedy. It is safe to say that it is the funniest act ever seen upon a local stage, and this statement will. coincide with the opinion of the many thousands who were in attend ance at the opening performances yes terday. From the start to the finish there is a fast and furious rush of fun, with hardly a. let-up to relieve ones aching sides. Both are .comed- ians of very rare ability. and their burlesque acrobatic stunts are we'll conceived. Though Collins and Hart city, it was evident from the reception accorded them at their initial appear ance yesterday afternoon that they had many local friends and admirers The other acts on the bill are also of a superior quality and include: Dorner clever hodge-podge of amusement entitled ''The Variety of Vaudeville" It is certainly a variety of amusement they offer too, and of a most excellent brand.

CAUGHT BETWEEN FENCE AND TRAIN, ESCAPES
 WITH SLIGHT BRUISES

Caught between the fence dividing the west bound freight and passenger tracks at the railroad station and a west bound train. Charles w. Moore, of New Haven, formerly in the metal business in this city, experienced a remarkable escape from being crush ed to death before daybreak this morning.
 Moore feared he would not have time to cross under the tracks and tried to climb the fence to reach the New Haven train. He was unaware of his danger until the train bore down upon him. A man of robust physique, he drew up as closely as possible to the fence to allow the train to brush by, but there was not enough room. The cars struck him as they passed, tore his clothing and bruised him severelyl
 Then he was rolled along the plat form for some distance, but strange ly escaped the wheels. Expecting to find dead man, the station attaches rushed to the scene and found Moore still unconscious but grooming with pain. He was taken to the emergency hospital by Dr. McQueeny of the am- bulance corps, and after he had been examined and found unhurt save for superficial bruises he was unable to leave unassisted His clothes were badly tattered.
