The house shas been packed at every show since 1t opened Monday and the one slogan is how -can--he give such a show of hea diners for the money. An act like the Son of Solomon has never been played at popular prices before and the head1iner cofnng today Is an other star that has always appeared in the two dollar legitimate houses and is in the high priced vaudeville theatres The head1iner starting with today's matinee is Andy Rice, the celebrated Hebrew comedian who is well known in Bridgeport. Andy has always. been star in the big produc- ton houses and took a flyer, once or twice over the big vaudeville circuits and this is positively the first time he has ever appeared at popular prices Emma Francis and her Arabs is another act that sees it's name in electric lights every time 1t plays Broadway.

BILLIE BURKE IS
 BIG HIT AT PARK
1.-THE MIND THE PAINT GIRL.' ENTHUsEs BIGGEST AND MOST FASHIONABLE AUDIENCE OF SEASON.

An audience that crowded the Park theatre to the doors saw Miss Billie Burke in '"The Mind the Paint Girl' last night. The play which is from the pen of one Of the greatest modern English dramatists, Arthur Wing Pinero, is the best vehicle Miss Burke has ever had. It is a strong, stirring piece.
 The charming Billie was there in all her elusive and captivating manner isns. As Lily Parradell, the reigning favorfte of the Pandora theatre, she was a pretty picture. Her acting was at all times good and in the big. scene in the third act she was particular ly fine. The audience gave her an ovation at the close of this scene.
 Shelley Hull as Viscount Earn combe was a manly lover and H. E. Herbert scored heavily as Nicholas Jeyes, the man who, sacrificed his own love in order that the girl might mar ry into the peerage. Thomas Reyn- olds as Sam de Castro was also a hit.
 Miss Burke, who was a musical comedy star in. London. before she was signed by Charles Frohman, showed that she hasn't forgotten her early days, by singing a couple of sditties in fine style. The audience liked the production immensely.

 With newspaper critics varying not a whit in their estimate of this weeks attractions at the Po1i theatre de luxe, there can be little doubt, as to the merit Of the stellar program arranged by Manager Poli. The big audiences that have witnessed the performances thus far this week are also agreed in the verdict: '"The best bill of the season."

The successful recognition of any theatrical or amusement enterprise in New York city is judged largely by the time 1t is permitted to occupy the principal theatres of the metropolis. This being true, the reproduction of Paul J. Rainey's famous East African Hunt, which will be seen at the Park theatre three days commencing Mon day March 3rd, now holds the record for an uninterrupted run of one year and still playing at the Bijou theatre To those who have seen MT.

Long Journey Through Space.

Our worlds journey in space is q
long one, if we are to accept the con
clusions of DR.. Turner of the univer
sity observatory of Oxford, and Prof
H. C. Plummer. royal astronomer OF
Ireland. Recent astronomical work
suggests that the sun and it's planets
form single unit in a vast system
the stars in which, though separated
by enormous distances, have a com
mon center OF gravity, and in response
to gravitation all move in unison like
stupendous machine. The paths Of:
these stars, instead Of being nearly
circular, like those Of the planets
around the SUM- are much like the oscil
lations of pendulum. The calcula
tions show that on this elongated
course our sun must travel 400, 900, ,O0e
years before completing a revolution
and that it passed near the center less
than million-perhaps not more thar
