BIG HIGH sALARlED ACT
 AT THE AUDIToRiU M.

It is not generally known, but the Auditorium Is an integral part of the largest vaudeville circuit in the world, known as the United Booking Offices of America, which books the acts for over 150 theaters. The advantages or such an arrangement are obvious, as it enables the Auditorium to obtain the best acts in the country An eX- ample of this is the feature act for the first three days of this week, Dewar's Comedy Circus, an act that carries two ponies a mule, several dogs and small e. animals. The travelling expenses Of wach an act are very heavy, and If the act could only play three days here end then go to New York, why, the salary would be prohibitive for the smaller houses. This act is one of the hEgea4 features that has ever played Norwich in any house. A novel feature of the act is the revolving tables which the ponies ride The management of this act defies any man to remain on this table for one minute, while it is revolving, but tho ponies will stay there an unlimited time. Another feature of the act is the wonderful kicking mule, laugh producer that Is meduaIled anywhere. If you want a EDod wholesome hearty laugh, drop Into the Auditorium the first three dRys of this week.

BREED THEATER.

Appearing on the big bill at the Breed today is the greatest western picture that has been seen in some time. It Is entitled For the Sake of the Pappoose and tells of the daugh- ter of a pioneer family left an orphan al a tender age who is adopted by the Indians, later marrying one of their
 unlmber, the son of Chief White Horse.
 Ser Indian husband dies, leaving a bur year old son, besides the widow. Later she meets and marries the frontier doctor, but the grandparents od the boy will not permit his removal from camp. The wife fears to tell the dOctor-husband of her child until 1t is taken ill and the doctor summoned. Then she risks all and follows her husband into camp and the doctor finds the existence of her child and leaves her, charging her with deceit. In leaving camp he is attacked by bandits and left for dead The old chief and grandson find him and upon learning the truth of his wife's former marriage there is a reconciliation that gives this pretty story a happy finale

ternoon Rev. Frederick s. Bamford Of the Plainfield Congregational church conducted a most helpful service. The subject of the address was Heaven. When Jesus was about to depart, the speaker said, He gathered His disci- pies together and said Tn my Fla ther's house are many mansions" And behold T looked and heard the bells of the city ring for joy" John Bunyan has now caught the spirit of that ee- lestial city.

New Bill This Week.


 Barney Fagin, who opens at the Davis theater today for a three day stay, is probably more generally known to the people of this city than any man in vaudeville. His first en- gagement here was in 1874, and it was here while with the old Cleveland min strels that telegram was handed him while he was on in the first part tell ing him of the death of his father. Meeting Mir. Fagin on the street today one can scarcely believe that he was old enough in his profession 3S years ago to have held place on the end opposite the famous Billy Emerson.

PLAlNFlELD PASTOR
Delivers Thoughtful Sermon at First Congregational Church Sunday Morninq.

Rev. Frederick s. Bamford, pastor of the Plainfield Congregational church, preached Sunday morning at the First Congregational church, taking for his subject In the Midst. From Christ in the midst of the doctors the speaker showed how Christ Is the center and heart of intellectualism and the center and heart of all that is worth while today. Where two or three are gath cred together, there am l in the midst The church Is Christ In the midst of two or three. Jesus is the heart of the church.
 Where they crucifed Him. and two others with Him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst" God permits suffering that we may understand good. Jesus wept with those who suffered. He walks beside us in the midst of the darkness and sorrow of the way. Christ stood In their midst and said: Peace be unto you. This was the beginning of new life for the disciples of Jesus had become their Captain and Prince. Peace is what the nations and the individuals are striv- ing for.
 Tn the midst of the seven golden candlesticks Christ had become the center of light, of knowledge and of power" In the midst of the throne Christ has come to His power. All power is given unto Me. Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing.
 Reference to Christ as the center and heart of the Deity as illustrated in the Benediction brought to the close a sermon of great power and one that exalted Christ to His rightful place in the church and in the universe.

THE TURN OF THE TEARS.

How may we know you, year of Allf
 You come. as others come, Ntght-sandaled, and your flying feet Set bells a-swing in every street But you are dumb. We run, unwearied travellers
 Still on the upward slope Of life, to take your strong young
 hand, To search, to dare, to understand-
 Pilgrims of hope. You lead us on, you lead us up;
 We seek your avatar By fords of faith. the pass of tears. Peaks of delight-O year of years,
 You take us farl And then you go. We hear your vofca,
 We know your name at last. You were the Future that we gought And all the years may bring us naught
 But you. the Past. HI. B. Friedlander In Westminster
