The sale of seats has opened with such vigorous de- mand that the success of the enter prise is already assured. The prices are low. the idea of the management being that there is such general call for concerts of this nature that the at tendance, with reasonable charge for admission will be so large that the low scale will be more than compen- sated by the large patronage

 William Redmond the band eo1oiSt. MT.

He is also noted as a singer in open air band concerts. and is will known to Bridge porters for his appearance with the Wheeler-&c Wilson band during several seasons. MT. Redmond has many per- sonal friends here as we'll as a. host of admirers, attracted by his excellent vocal abilities.

He Would Push Too.

A gentleman with well fed appear Rnce who motored over from the near est town to deliver his lecture, "The Art of Getting On,'' in the village schoolroom. concluded with a fine burst. t"rhe successful man is the man who strives persistently. His motto is Push, and keep pushing,' for by that and that alone he reaches his goal" Before the audience made much headway with their clapping a small man at the back got in a laugh that might have come from a megaphone. The lecturer held up his hand for si- lence.
 "You, too, my friend, will have to push,'' he commenced.
 'tso will you, reckon interrupted the small man. s'There is half dozen Kids pinching the gasoline out of your motorcar to light bonfire" = New York Telegraph.

PLAYS AND PLAYERS
POLES THEATRE
MEMS SECTION

Next week Manager Poll will pre- sent his all star Washington. StocK Conpary in Henri Bernstein's great success The Thief The Th1e1 was first produced in New York at the Lyceum Theatre with Margaret Ellington as the chief and the late Kvrle Bellew. as the husband The Thief was Kyrle Bellows first pheno- ruenal hit after he had ceased to play Rallies" and it made a star of Mar saret Illington- Only last fall the play yas produced once more on Broad way, at Daly's Theatre. with the Ia nous French tTagedlennne; MIn@, me of a former president of the French Republic, in the title role.
 The story of the play centers around a a woman who stole in order that she: might obtain the feminine frills ana 1fnery to make herself always beau0- full in the eyes of her husband. Al first her thefts are small, put, llke all others of her kind she steals things of greater value later on and causes suspicion to be fastened upon her. Realizing that she was about to be detected, she prevailed upon a young man. a mere boy in the household to take the blame for the wrong doing, knowing that he is infatuated with her beauty.
 Through a little ruse the husband learns that his wife is the real thief and she finally confesses her guilt and clears the boy.
 This week the Poli Players are pre- senting Edwin Milton Royle's famous American drama and are pleasing large and enthusiastic audiences at portrayals of their respective roles. The play is full of intensely dramatic satua tons which tend to hold the in terest at it's highest pitch until the motion pictures are shown in the in termissions-

An Awed Gunner.

A Maine hunter who is a crack shot tells 8 curious story about himself. While hunting one day he came upon fine large deer not more than two rods away. He attempted to raise his rifle to his shoulder. but his arm became suddenly paraIyzed. All he could do was to stand there and watch the deer disappear in the distance. Then his. arm resumed it's normal condition, and he started on the trail once more. After awhile he came upon the deer a second time, and again the hunter tried to raise his rife, and again his arm refused to serve him. Then he gave it up and went home, impressed with a sense of awe and a conviction that he had better leave that particular deer alone.

KING OF FRUITS.

To Eat Durian You Must First Over
 con1sr Your Sense of Smell.
 The east furnishes in the durian one of the strangest of fruits. It has been called 'the king of fruits. as the or ange is the queen,'' but there are many who entertain no liking for it.
 There is this difficulty about the du- rfans It's consumption presents the same obstacle to enjoyment as ripe cheese. To eat durian one must first overcome ones sense of smell The odor of the durian suggests Mrnburger cheese. onion sauce, brown sherry and other incongruities. It has also been compared to the smell of hmeki1n in full operation.
 The Malays are excessively fond of the fruit. and those Europeans whose sense of smell is not overdelicate con tend teat the dur1an is like rich but tery custard favored with almonds.
 A British officer st Penang once dined member of parliament about to leave for home. Among other deli cacies an overripe durfan was placed upon the table, The guest, on being pressed to partake of it, declined, with this remark:
 "It may have been very good last season, but if you will excuse me I would rather not venture on 1t now"
 The d1rian :s as, large as mans head and is covered with sharp spines. It grows upon large tree, somewhat similar to the walnut When ripe 1t falls. and if it should strike any one the chances are that 1t would tnf1ict damage. The natives, knowing the danger of blow from falling durian. stretch nets under the trees in popu- lous places 50 that the fruit may be caught as it Salls.-NeW York Sun.
