Interchange of Duties
OF Probation Officers
Aids Work of Correction

Through the; interchange of proba-
tionary charges by the probation Off
GERS of various Connecticut cities, and
the extension of the practice even to
cities in other states, local court Off
Gals say that an important step has
been taken in the furtherance OF the
work of correction.
Several cases of this sort have been
in the hands of local court officials.
Men from other cities have fallen into
the tolls of the police and the, exercise
Of the courts prerogative to place them
under the surveillance of the probation
officer of this city, would handicap
them in their wish to return to their

THEATRE RECEIPTS
GROW IN 80 YEARS
Mile. TrentIne Receives More
Than $4,000 For Single
Nights Performance
Entire Weeks Business In 1880
At Same Theatre Was
But ST. 37

There is a wide difference in theatre
receipts in Bridgeport at the present
day and those of 80 years ago. Mile.
Emma Trentine and her company in
1.-The Firehy'' played at the Park thea
ire Monday and the gross receipts for
the performance were more than $2,-
900. This is just twice the total re-
ceipts for the banner weeks perform
ance at the same theatre thirty years
ago.
The Dramatic Mirror of January "A,
1880, in possession of John A Shea,
proprietor of Shea's hotel, shows that
the receipts at the same theatre for
that entire week were but $1,097 and
this was the best weeks business the
was opened until that date. Mary
Anderson, the famous star, did the
best business of the week, the receipts
for her performance being $671- The
Criterion Comedy company had the
poorest business, the total receipts
for their performance being only $51
Mr.. Shea, by the way, has the larg-
est collection of photographs, books,
newspapers and programs connected
with StageIand in the United States
His bound volume of the Dramatic
Mirror for the same date shows that
J. H Haverly's Church Choir Pinafore
company was playing in Bridgeport on
Christmas day, 1879, and the company
stopped at the old Sterling house in
Main street, now the Arcade hotel.
There after the performance the mem
bers of the company had a Christmas
tree in the parIor from which gifts for
all were distributed and dinner and
dance followed. J. H. Haverly was
the famous minstrel and at that time
the biggest promoter of theatrical en-
terprises in the United States.

WORK
ON PANAMA CANAL

Washington, Sept. Although
August was a busy month for the
workmen on the, Panama Canal, yet
the figures for the excavation just re-
ceived from the isthmus show a
smaller output than for the preceding
month The total for August was
2,658,7s cubic yards, compared with
3,341,9 yards
The explanation is found in the fact
that as the canal approached com
pletion, width of the part to be re-
moved rapidly diminished and fewer
steam shove1s can be operated in the
restricted space. Another factor caus-
ing delay was the great increased rain
fall in August.
The amount of concrete placed
during August was also less than in
July for the reason that the great
lock approaches and cham ers are
practically complete and the work
now going on is simply closing up
openings left for the convenience of
the workmen in the earlier stages of
the canal construction.
