 The arrangements which are Tn charge of several committees provide for entertainment of the very high est order, and many of the biggest features of the amusement world will be on hand.
 Automobile Parades, Decorated Floats, Fancy and GrotesQue Cos tunes and Sanger-fests and Confetti Showers will follow in regular order and even coronation is being plan ned for of course the Mardi Gras must have a King and a.. Queen, Who these dignitaries will be is for two of New Ravens leading papers to say and they are leaving it to their readers who have been invited, to choose by popular ballot. the result of which will be made known sone days before the opening of the carnival. Especial arrangements are under way for the transportatione of visitors from all parts of the state, and the Connecticut Company has promised to cooperate with the committees by fur nfshfng extra cars from all points.
 So keep your dates open for this big week. Come early for you'll nev- CT be satisfied with one trip, in fact your only regret will be that the con- cessionaries at the Rock cannot plan to furnish Amusement on the same scale all through the season

SLEW FATHER TO.
 PROTECT MOTHER.
Young Man Surrenders 10 Police Telling Graphic Story of
 Death Struggle

VineIand. N. J., Aug. 27.-Declar- ing that he had killed his father, E. R. Carton, a wealthy horseman, to prevent the murder of his mother, Henry Carton surrendered to the po- lice, today. The killing was with a small kitchen knife and was the cul- imitation of fight between the two men in which they wrestled all over the floor of the Kitchen of the Gar ton home. For four hours after the killing Mrs. Carton was in mysteries and refused. to permit her son to leave her. When he finally managed to quiet her he went to the police station and was locked up to await the coroner's investigation.
 Mother and son tell the same story. The. elder Carton had been morose and irritable for two. weeks. He had been drinking when he came home soon after midnight and he and Mrs. Carton .quarrelled. Henry, who is21. left the room, believing his mother could pacify his father Instead Gar- ton went into the kitchen, returning with a small kitchen knife. With this he threatened his wife and her screams brought the son to her as- sistance.
 The two men clinched and fought all over the room, overturning and demo olishing furniture in their strug- gles. At last the father got the son by the throat and forced him back wards on the kitchen table. The young man was losing strength As his hands clasped he felt the knife dropped from his fathers hand He grasped it and struck blindly. The blade pierced the throat of the elder man, ;severing the juguIar vein. Gar ton dropped dead and the mother. who had watched the conflict, went into mysteries. }t

POLL PLAYERS SCORE IN "A GENTLEMAN OF LEISURE"
MT. Melrose Gives Interesting Per-
 fOrmance of The Title Role.

The PoH Players scored another ,hit ast evening in the production of "A Gentleman of Leisure a piece that is peculiarly timely because of the by play that it contains dealing with the inner workings of the New York po- lice department. Wilson Melrose plays the part of Bob Pitt, a charac- terization originally made famous by Douglas Fairbanks. Although Fair banks is a midget compared with Mel rose. the latter gives a new and very interesting portrayal of the part
 Pitt, the gentleman of leisure as the name of the piece implies has nothing to do but kill time and spend money. He meets professional bur glar and "buffaloes'' the cracksman into believing that he is a. famous English crook. The crook becomes the rich mans valet and by his crude work the wealthy man becomes in- volyed. Aand is accused as a, criminal.
 All through the period that he is under a cloud there is a young wom an who refuses to believe that he is anything but an upright man, and she proves the love for him that com menced when they met as shipmates aboard an ocean. liner.
 F. The girl, which part is played by Miss Starr. is the, daughter of a, police commissioner. Pitt and his valet are surprised in the apartments of the police commissioner and a very acute situation arrives when they are call ed upon to explain.
 The audience was kept more than pleased all during the production. Stewart Fox, new addition to the company makes a hit as the .yeggman and Robert <. Cummings has been brought from the Hartford company of players to play the part of sstBig PhiP, Creedon. Mr. Van Sloan plays the part of a young Englishman and Miss Pringle, his aunt. Both add much zeet to the production while Mir Hummel is at his best as Sir Thomas Blunt: The production is splendidly staged with scenic equipment which affords a. pretty frame Tor. the play which abounds with wit and action and has been termed; a melodramatic carnAdV t.. .s.L.
