PoLI's.

Aida. 0verton Walker, late co-Star of Williams and Walker and at the pfes- ent time the sensation of vaudeville has been selected by Manager Poli to head the big Inaugural bill of vaude- will which will be seen at Poli's next week and which will formally open the vaudeville season of 1911-1912 at 4 this popular playhouse. Miss Walker is this week at Hammerstein'S Vic tDria Theatre in New York held over ss second week and headlining a bill of seventeen acts, a circumstance which can be taken as indicative of her talent and drawing powers At the top of the Poli bill she will be as- sisted in her act by a dozen selected artists including ten clever girls great comedian and a musical director which is no small feature in the suc- cess of this act. While Miss Walker has expended thousands on costuming and scenery for this vaudeville act. has paid almost prohibitive prices for her songs that she might get away from the fackneyed popular songs of the day land have her company the highest prices paid in vaudeville it is her own unique and artistic personal ity that dominates the act from start to finish and her dancing as we'll as her singing is a rare vaudeville treat. It is expected that the act will make the biggest hit of any act that has played here in vaudeville for many seasons especially as it comes just at time when the vaudeville lovers locally are just hungry for this sort of entertainment.
 Surrounding Miss Walker on the bill will be found the cream of the vaude- vile acts of the modern sort. Ellis and McKenna, two superb singers will resent their great novelty Wanted a Tenor which is a hit on every bill it plays Great Santeu will offer a sensational balancing, juggling and posing act and there will be five oth- CT feature acts The sale of seats for the opening performances on Labor Day means that standing room will be at premium for those two per formances for the line. of buyers has not diminished since the seats went on sale several days ago. It is also reminded vaudeville patrons that the subscription list is open and those desiring the same seats reserved for the entire season on some special night or afterIfoon of each week can have them reserved by application to the box office or by mail or telephone.
 This is the farewell week of the summer stock season and the Poli players are giving an admirable per- formance of the most interesting play The Dollar Mark The company Is augmented for the occasion and there are nearly twenty speaking parts. Some most elaborate scenery and artistic excellence on the part of the players throughout.

Bicycle Too Slow for
 This Little Hustler

Tarrytown, N. Y., Sept. Harry town is known to be the world for many things, but now it has a real marvel in a telegraph messenger boy. who has put aside a bicycle given to him by the company because it is 'too slow" He is Max Schwarz, fourteen years old.
 Before Max went to work here, it took three boys to deliver the mes sages. Now Max does the work alone and has had spare time to study tele- graphy.
 Owing to the large territory he has to cover the company thought a bi- cycle would be a help in delivering messages Max said it took too much time to push it up the hills and that he could run with the messages quick CT.
 Max is known to everybody as a hustler and is the special messenger for John D. Rockefeller and Miss Hell en NJ. Gould when they are here. Mir. Rockefeller remembers him with gold pieces around the holidays. 4a
 Max lives near Sleepy Hollow, but what's in a name?

Milford Woman ! Is Confident Of
 Getting Estate

New Haven, Sept. With friends now Hooking to her aid and promising to see that she gets her share of the estate, and with another development today to the effect that a paragraph in the will as regards her marrying quent chapter, Mrs. Mae Deffney Baldwin. the Milford woman, who has received word that she is heir to an estate of $SOO0O0 in Minnesota is now more confident than ever that she will not lose the money.
 It became known, definitely today that a prominent New Haven man has taken up the legal end of the fight. He is positive he declares that Mrs. Baldwin is unquestionably the right heir and that she will get the estate. Out of town attorneys, detective agen- cies and tracing firms are at present besieging the little home of the Bald wins at Milford anxious to take up her fight for what they can get out of the estate but Mrs. Baldwin has been sharp enough to turn them down it is understood. -
 Mrs. Baldwin to a Register man to- day told the story of the bequest and declared that she had been informed that an amendment to the will reliev- ing her of the obligation of marrying another man as told of. in The Regis
 
 barrier by requiring that she can not come into the estate until her present husband dies. Because of the attempt of others to acquire the estate full de- tails are being secured by her with difficulties.
 The case is one of the most peculiar to ever come to light hereabouts and while conflicting stories as to the will make it appear almost the whole story seems improbable, there is no doubt according ito prominent New Haveners who are now representing her. but that the estate has been left to her.
 Mrs. Baldwin yesterday told the story that her elopement and marriage to the Milford blacksmith whose wife she now is. She was summering at Milford she states and while bathing at Fort TrumbuI beach met him in the water. He splashed her foolingly and as they Joked with one another an acquaintance resulted which rip ened into love and led, to her elope- ment from her western home shortly afterwards.
 She had lived with her uncle and while she always knew that he was very wealthy she had supposed that he had never forgiven her for eloping.

 This is the age of substitution, and women who want cure should insist upon Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound just as this woman did, and not accept something else on which the druggist can make little more profit.
 Women who are passing through this critical period or who are suffering from any of those distressing ills pe- culiar to their sex should not lose sight of the fact that for thirty years Lydia B: Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which IS made from roots and herbs, has been the standard remedy for fe male ills.
