THE TWO ORPHANs.n

The sixteenth week of the Poli Play CTS stay at Poli's theater will be ush- cred in Monday afternoon with a big production of the play that Kate Clax- ton made famous and which in turn made her a fortune, "The Two orph- ans" This old play is one that calls for an extensive cast of speaking characters, it being necessary to retain the extra people who were engaged for "The Christian" and to engage others as we'll. A complete set of special and slabote costumes is required, as ev- cry individual appearing in the play must be dressed in the correct cos- tune of the period. The scenery is all special and particularly attra ctive, as the scenes are laid in and about Paris, and must be accurately presented. "The Two Orphans" is play that seems to increase in popularity as the years go by. a study of the bulletins of the va rious stock companies over the country showing that it is presented in no less than from six to ten of them each week. It was presented in Philadel- pfr1a by the Orpheum Players last week to phenomenal business, and this com pany is recognized as one of the best in America The production here will in every way equal the best that has been made of the play in this city at any time in the past, and far excel a majority of them. The complete cast of characters follows: Louise Gerard, one of the orphans,
 Victoria Montgomery Henrlelte Gerard, the other orphan
 Virginia ClIsuVenet Hl Ffochard, mother Of Jacques,
 Emma Hayner Countess Diand De Linierres, wife
 of the minister, Gertrude Morgan Sister Genevieve, of Salpetriere pris- on, Sue Fisher Marianne, an outcast, Esther Jayson Julie. butterfly, Gertrude Morgan Cora, of the ''Varfeties,"

JOSEF HoFMANNs CONCERT. The Great Pianist Will Be in Norwich

Norwich music 1overs are being aroused to the highest pitch of antici- patory interest over the forthcoming visit of that greatest of all living plan ists. Josef Hofmann, who will give a recital in Slater Memorial hall on Wednesday evening, March 2sth. Nor wich is indeed fortunate in being able to announce . visit by an artist with a worldwide reputation like Hofmann, fore he made his seasons debut, Oct. 2Sth, in Carnegie hall, New York, every moment of time possible to be utilized for recital and concert purposes during the mug1caA year was allotted.

HE IS RIGHT.

The position taken by Highway Commissioner Macdonald that state thorpughfares belong to the state to build and maintain is logical and req sonable and equally logical and req sonab1e is the claim that any bridge forming an integral and essential part of any such state thoroughfare is also the property of the state to build and maintain. If the bridge over the Connecticut at Lyme now being built by the state is a part of the great trunk highway through the state, so is the bridge over the Housatonic be- tween the towns of Stratford and Milford. Yes; we think Macdonald is right.-Bridgeport Standard.
Norwich bulletin., 1911-03-25

visit to some large city should appeal to every person who has the slightest interest in music. All students of the piano in particular should be interest," ed, as they will derive more inspira- ton from a recital by MT. Hofmann thap from any other source that could be suggested.
 Tickets for the Hofmann concert are now on sale at the store of George A. Davis. Although there has been large advance sale, still there are a great many good seats to be had. Ad- mission is $2, all seats reserved.

 The merchants of Norwich should be very much interested in the success of the Christmas club now being built up by the Thames Loan and Trust company, for should it prove as popu- lar as they hope to make it there will be a large increase in the volume of cash buying during the holidays, and a constantly growing number of those who will place themselves beyond the need of asking for credit at all times of the year. In a city in Pennsylvania of about the size of Norwich, where this plan was started last year, a club of over twelve hundred was formed, which resulted in the distribution in December of about $44,000. checks for that amount being mailed to that number (and a similar club for 1911, in the same town. has pledge es for 2,6O0 members, amounting to over eoo,000). 4 very large part of this money went directly into the local stores. A sim liar sum put into circulation here on Dec. 11th. 1911, would certainly make the Christmas trade very active and desirable.
