At the finish of the first act the graduates are seen in the rear end of an observation car, bidding fond adieu to the audience, while the train seemingly dashes on through the hills and dells. This effect is said to be one of the most realistic ever seen in a like production. Some high class vaudeville is displayed in the second act, namely Beatrice who styles her. self 'sThe Ragtime Violinist," George Leonard and Edna Maze execute dance rightly named "Old Age and Youth, last but least '"The Queen of Mimicry' Miss Maurice Wood, this young lady initiates such well known stage folks as Eddie Foy, Eva Tan quay and Harry Lauder.

POLI'S

Have the vaudeville-goer of today D forgotten the stars of former years whose artistic work on the stage rais- ed vaudeville to its present high place in public esteem? Experience answers most emphatically "No', and the vau- deNille stars of former years are the greatest favorites on the. stage today. Realizing this fact, and wishing to af- ford the vaudeville patrons a novelty that is sure to be most deeply appre- ciated, Manager Poli has arranged for his patrons next week a bill composed of the most famous of the "old timers on the stage today, all of whom, by sheer merit, have occupied top notch places in their profession for decades.
 For the younger theatre-goers, this will provide an opportunity to see the old time favorites who delighted their parents and grandparents in the early days of variety. For the theatre goers of days gone by 1t will form a revival of the happy memories of the past and they will be glad to pay talent and wit delighted and enter tained them in the younger days.
 Once more they will laugh at the luips and jests, and then perhaps feel 3 grip of the heart strings as the tears well to the eyes at the pathos of some ; 0lden days are still the classics of to- { day-for they possessed art, and art IS eternal. recent writer about stage folks said: '"The greatest mis- sionaries on earth are the people who .can make you laugh and forget your worries for the time being"
 In engaging this bill of 'old timers , MT. Poli has selected the artists who he thinks will afford the greatest pleasure to the theatre-goers of Bridgeport. The names that appear are ones that will send a thrill of pleasure through the hearts of fathers, mothers and grandparents alike, while the younger generation will know them through the fame and glory that they won in other days.
 AS far as possible many other fea- lures about the theatre will be in ac- cordance with the methods used in the olden days. Among these will be selections of the old time melodies by the Poli orchestra. This in itself will be a fature we'll worth hearing, as there is nothing more pleasing than the old music.
 Practically all of the acts that ap- pear are old and we'll known favor ites to Bridgeport, and played here in the old days, before the present thea tres were standing. Owing to the high class of the bill and the great attraction Of the occasion, the demand for seats will be heavy and reserva- lions should be made early.

Kate M. Cobb Is
 Seeking Liberty
 For Last Days
Her Petition for Pardon Re- calls Famous Murder Case Feels She Has Suf-
 fered Enough

Kate NJ. Cobb, of Norwich, is seek ing a pardon from the Connecticut State prison. She has been in prison nearly thirty-three years. but she is said to preserve many traces of the beauty which she possessed when she lived in Norwich. She planned with Wesley Bishop that the latter should put his wife out of the way. Mrs Cobb was to put her husband, Charles Cobb, out of the way, and with the two dead, Bishop and Mrs. Cobb were to marry. Arsenic was the poison used and Charley Cobb died Be- fore the death of Cobb, Bishop and Mrs. Cobb had been. seen much in each others company, suspicion at tached to them and they were arrest ed and put to trial. At time of the trial when the belief was general that there was not sufficient evidence to convict Bishop turned States evidence and he and Mrs Cobb were sentenced to prison for life, Bishop died there a few years ago and it has often been said that from the time that they were received at the prison until Bishop died he and the woman never laid eyes on each other. She is a clever woman and each year at Christmas time when there is sale of the work of the prisoners much of Mrs. Cobb's handi- work is offered for sale. She is now 63 years old.
 In support of her second petition for a pardon she says that she has served thirty-three years, practically life time. She says that she has been in prison over half her life and all of the best part of it, and feels that she has been sufficiently punished for any thing The petition which has her signature continues: 'tShe does not ask release for herself alone, as she has lost all that life holds dear, but her children and their offspring, and wishes to pass the remainder of her life with them, and spare them the disgrace of dying in here.''
 Harry Epstein also asks for pardon He says he is innocent, and that the crime for which he was convicted was
