Rossi seconded. Alderman Dawson ex-
pressed the belief that there Is more
feeling about the purchase of an auto

moved that the mayor call special

LYRIC THEATRE

This week will be the last when Harry Ingram will be seen in connec- tion with the Eleanor Cleveland Stock company, so that those who wish to see him again in that capacity will have their only opportunity in the MT. Ingram is seen as Heinrich. ved- der in the last act of this weeks ex- oellent production. and gives, as al atiOn of the character.
 Rip Van Wrinkle" is being greatly enjoyed by good sized audiences this week and the rendition of the old time success is bringing great credit to Miss Cleveland and her associates. It is an ideal attraction for this sea son of the year, and should be wit messed by crowded houses for each of the remaining performances.
 An offering of especial significance for Christmas week will be that of Frances Hodgson Burnett's deIightfu story. The Little Princess" which will be seen also at a special holiday Mrs Burnett, who will be remember ed with extreme pleasure as the Au- thor of that tremendous success, Lit tie Lord Fauntleroy'' and other plays which have all had phenomenal runs on the stage, calls 'tThe Little Prin- cess "a play for children and grown-gp g children, in in three acts. It dies, with a heart sentiment which is unusually touching and effective Its story is sure to delight all ages, young and old, and by it's own beau tiful simplicity of charm, is never failing, to hold the attention and en- list the sympathies of all.
 Mrs. Burnett has given to the stage a number of delightful offerings, but not one of them has had a greater success than this, which, will intro duce to the playgoers of Bridgeport a number of artists, all new to the local stage, and each one selected for per sona1 ability and fitness. Quite a number of changes will be made in the Cleveland cast, cccasioned by the requirements of this play, and there is little question that each will be giv- en a warm and cordial greeting. Kar- kunoff & Schrock, Miss Cleveland's mana gers, will give to the play a scenic dressing which will enhance it's beauty, and bring out with emphasis each one of the many good points it possesses. In fact, owing to the ho1i- days, especial effort will be made to provide this offering with stage dress which shall exceed in beauty and importance anything which has thus far been offered by the company in this city. and which will set even higher standard for all stock com paniee to folloW.~- r-4-..
 Miss Cleveland, of course, will be the little princess That she will have. the undivided and enthusiastic support of every member of her com pany goes without saying, and the pointt of excellence which can possibly be provided As a holiday attraction especially, no better selection of play could possibly have been made, that the theatregoers of Bridgeport, will flock in great numbers to wit ness this beautiful play.

A two dollar Broadway musical comedy production is what The Mid night Maidens' BurlesQue Company is going to offer at the Park Theatre to- day. tomorrow and Saturday. The Honeymoon'' is the title of the play, and is said to be a production of greater magnitude than any that has ever before been offered at this house at the regular price of admission As an added attraction the company will also be seen in "Cupid", knockabout comedy with g. scream in every sec ond The entire show is far beyond the speed limit in every particular. t"The Midnight Maidens'' will offer for the first time the burlesque stage a full sized, specially built Pullman sleeping car, In which the last scene ious' will rival the speed of the 'Over- gand Lmited'' on which they are travelling to Australia. The scenic sp1endor of this effect cannot well be imagined. To the audience the car is going at a fifty mile an hour speed. You see the flying telegraph poles. the mountains and prairies and the clouds noxin ing if the train were really going. They encounter a storm. meet across the continent. Altogether it is considered to be the most realistic effect ever attempted in buriesque. Vim. S. Clark, the father of organized burIesque, is sponsor for the attrac- ton. The value of his entire experi- ence has been invested in this produc- ton with the intention of making it an epoch in bur1esque presentation.

NAMING THE WOMAN"


 Whether the name of a play is pro- nounced with the right emphasis on the right word, or whether it is not, makes all the difference in the world. An example of this is presente in the title selected by David Belasco and William c. deMille for 'tThe Woman, the record hit of last season in New York and Chicago. and often referred to by outsiders as The (emphasis on '~The'0 Woman" Thus empha- sized one would be entirely justified in assuming that the subject of MT. deMille's play revolved around some and only feminine character, whereas. a matter of fact, the dia- metrically opposite is true With the empha sis on the word Woman how ever, the perspective, which the lady so designated in the play occupies in the general scheme of things, under goes a violent change. In other words, if the emphasis were placed on the article The, it would consti- tute Miss Jane Peyton. the leading woman of MT. Belasco's superfine company. With the emphasis on the noun Woman, that honor is divid- ed with Miss Mary Nash. Miss Nash's role is the telephone operator, Wanda Kelly. and the grand climax of MT. deMille's drama centers about ''the phone girl' who. by reason of her position, holds the destiny of the nation, of hundreds of people. and hollow of her hand.
