IN THE THEATRES
P.OII'S.

Tn that beehive of industry the United Booking Offices of America are routed and booked weekly there are but two lclassifications of vaude- vile acts and they are respectively .big tine'' and small time" The PoI chain of theatres books under the ftbig time'' arPangeme ent for two reasons, one of which is that MT. Poli the other that MT. Poli won't have any but the best acts in his theatres. In no city where there is a Poli thea Ire can high 1, class acts a be seen seen other tn s. to try and find that grade of acts other than at Polls. Under the classification of "smaIl time" one will find acts that have either long since played circufts of the character Of Polis or else acts that are trying to break into the big circuit: About small time ever get on the big time as very often while talent is present in a degree there is something else lacking that does not appeal to the big managers
 As per example of the contract next week Manager Poli will offer at his 9 salary in four figures and an assur- ance that this one act, and it will be only one eight, commands a salary equal to. if not more than the combin- ed salaries of all other acts that will play in Bridgeport next week other than at Polfs and this is not fiction
 
 The present weeks bill is not only one of the most costly but as well one of the most entertaining that has been seen here in some time There is comedy in plenty and thrills a plenty also splendid singing and dancing, two good sketches and some splendid musical work Mona Ryan, a charming and capable actress heads the bill presenting with the aid of two very clever dramatic actors, Vic tor SmalIey's latest and greatest sketch success t.Handeuffed." Nor ton and Moore, those two clever fe1- lows who were "a tPern endous success with 'sThe Merry Whirl~ put over . Icorking good comedy act with sing ing, dancing and eccentric comedy work which savers of Montgomery and Stone while the Bounding Gordons offer the most sensational acrobatic act ever seen in this city, a rather sterotyped phrase as it is written but absolutely apropos in their re- spect. Other acts on the bill which serve to round out a, high class two and a half hours of entertainment are Goldsmith and Hoppe, Carbrey Brothers, Robertus and his dog, and Ekphye Snowden and Earl Benham.

, are so considerate of animal life that they refrain from eating meat, have been charged with grievous offense A much advertised shoe manufacturer has accused them of being the direct cause of the high prices of shoes. At the first glance the connection between vegetarians and high shoe prices seems a tritle obscure, but the explanation of the aforesaid shoe manufacturer makes the matter perfectly clear. If there were no VegetarianS there would be greater demand for meat. In that ease more beeves, calves. etc, would be slaughtered. As a result hides would become more plentiful and cheaper and the shoe manufacturers would be able to sell their leather-made products at a lower price. Ergo, the vegetarians are responsible for the high shoe prices, quOd erat demonstratum. And to think that all these years the unenlightened public accused the beef trust, the leath. CT trust and the shoe trust of being the cause of the soaring shoe prices!
 The advocates of woman s suffrage seem to be hard mp for members of their organization, judging from the desperate means they employ to swell their membership lists. The other day a helpless male infant of ten days was made a life member of the suffragst or ganizatiOn in Norwich, Conn. The boy was the first child born to any member of the organization since it was formed about year ago. The anti-suffragsts of New York are not worried, however, by the possibility that the New York suttragists may adopt similar tactics to increase their membership. They would not gain one member year, for the suffragists are not believers in the Roosevelt anti.race suicide theory.
