POLI'S THEATRE

About ten years ago, "Quincy Adams Sawyer a story of New Eng land life, by Charles Felton Pidgin, made it's appearance in attractive book form Directly it achieved enor- -mous popularity. Everybody was reading it and talking about 1t. The sal es' continued for a year with no abatement. About that time, the par 5 ties concerned in the book saw in the story all the elements of a successful play. To be sure it lacked a william a ruined girl, . lost will, a mortgage and cruel uncle, but 1t contained plenty Of types of people all distinct and natural And so the dramati tiza- ton was made
 was doubIy so. Houses crowded to the doopS marked it's every appearance. ssfThe very best New England ever seen'' was the universal verdict. This is the play which Manager Poli will present his popular Organization in next week. and he is to be comm ended for his choice. The success of the sPo1i Players in the past Is sufficient proof of their ability to play Quincy Adams Sawyer in a praiseworthy m anper. MT. Meldon. the clever ,dis rector of the company has directed this play before and a star pt'esenta- tion is promised by him.
 The play closely follows the book. No attempt was made to enlarge on the plot. Quincy Adams Sawyer is a wealthy young Boston lawyer, who goes into the country for his health. He meets a blind girl, whose love he wins Their courtship is the main theme of the play, but it is not on any ore feature of the drama that the interest centers, for as far as love making goes, there are six full fledged love stories in progress all the time It is the realfsticS portrayal of character and scene that has won the play it's distinction The world loves anything genuine. It is the jolliest play ever written. The comedy scenes are strong and many, and the tender seriousness of the sentimental DOT tions being only sweet content and satisfaction unnlixed with regret or sadness This weeks offering, The tions of the4rla nager from financial standpoint.

DR. WILEY IS
 PREPARING SOME
 STARTLING FACTS
Will Show That Both Roosevelt and Taft Opposed Pure
 Food Legislation

New York. Sept. 20.-A score of well known women Ncheered pr. Har- vey w Wiley here. when he told them that the real issue of the pres ent campaign was whether pure food legislation would be enacted by the next con gress. So well did the doctor satisfy the women of this city that before he left for Washington at noon, he had been elected president of the bureau of health of the wo- mems national Wilson & Marshall or ganization.
 The meeting was most enthusiastic. The women present proceeded to lionize Dr. Wiley and he assured them that the women were now com ing into their own in politics and they were for the first time real fac tors in national campaign. Wiley announced headquarters for the bu- reau would be opened. next week, in the Fifth Avenue Building here. He said:
 we have completed campaign document which we will issue soon which will show that both Col. Roose- welt and President Taft have opposed pure food 1egisl ation. And we will prove it out of their own mouths as the document comprises extracts from letters and speeches from the Repub- lican and bull moose candidates It will contain many facts that will startle Americans

TOM kIPPUR AT SUNSET
From Then Today Till Sunset To-
 morrow Jews Worship.

The Jewish holy day. Yom Kippur, or Day of Atonement, the most inn portant event in the whole Jewish year, begins at Ssunset this evening and continues until sunset tomorrow. This holy day is more generally ob- served by the Jews than any other day in the calendar It begins on the evening of the ninth day of the month Tishri, and continues during the tenth day of the month. This day is also called tf1s Sabbath of Sab baths, and during it's continuance the observant Jew abstains from food and drink for twenty-four hours. No work or business of any kind is undertaken, except such works of necessity or charity which cannot possibly be de- ferred.
 The services at the temples and syn agogueS are of a very impressive ma ture. They begin with the KoI Nidre service this evening, and the services during Saturday are practically con tinuous lasting from <early morning until the coming of sunset, when the sound of the shofar announces the then return to their homes to break their twenty-four hour fast. The ultra-orthodox Jews remain in their synagogues all night, repeating pray CTS and chanting psalms. The men, according to an ancient custom, wear their white shroudS as a reminder Of mans mortality and of his duty to confess his sins and repent During the afternoon service on Saturday spe- cial mem orial service is held in mem ory of relatives or friends who have passed away.
 All the time that the services con- tinue the places of worship are throng- ed and no one of the congregation who break the fast commenced the night before.

TOSS ATTACKS
 NEW HAVEN ROAD
GOVERNOR DECLARES ITS FIXED POLICY IS TO RETAIN POLTTI-
 CAL POWER.

Worcester, Mass, Sept. 2o.-Gover- nor Foss speaking here attacked the New Haven road in specific terms, charging that the New Haven roads fixed policy is to retain it's political power and to prevent legislation hos tile to it's private interests.
 Eoss said: The principal interests now before the people of the com n1onwea1th may be boiled down and sta ted in the single proposition that the control anR the development of transp sportation service should be re- turned to the hands of the public aE- thorities.
 "fn this commonwealth the control of transportation has been wrested from the people by private interests not concerned primarily in the public welfare If the comm monwea1th does not control the railroads, the railroads will control the comm onwealth. S
 The present management of the New Haven road has multiplied many times the capital charge upon which the people must pay dividends in rates and fares without giving the people corresponding increase in facilities.
 'sThe chief aim has been to get an absolute monopoly of the transporta- tion facilities of Massa chusetts and to thxvart the public auth critics, and in this the New Haven has been com pletely successful.

In these headquarters, all matter is delivered to one man, who has a ma chine called a. rnailometer which op- crates by electricity and seals, stamps and counts about .12, ,0O0 letters per hour. In this way it is utterly inn possible for any leakage to occur in the stamp account and all mail mat ter is certain to be deposited at the is a great 1abor-saving device, in that you do not have to employ a large force of girls to seal and stamp let ters, and inasmuch as the machine counts letters, we are able to charge up against each department the amount of stamps expended on. its ac- count.
