ATTRACTIONS HTHE THEATRES
THE PLAZA

Judging from the crowds that pack the comfortable. Plaza Theatre at ev- cry performances, the bill for the first three days is certainly meeting with well balanced and each and every act on 1t is making individual hit, while the photoplays, all feature reels, are intensely interesting.
 Manager Jeff Callan announced be- fore the theatre opened that he in tended to secure all the latest feature iphotoplays and the best acts procur- able on the vaudeville stage for his Bridgeport patrons and a glance of the program will suffice to prove that he is going to make good his state ment although the prices are extreme ly low for the quality of entertainment offered
 The Mephisto Cabaret is the head line act. The act is a stupendous one from every viewpoint, carrying a. car load of special scenery and electrical effects, a. bevy of pretty girls, all beau tifuI singers and expert dancers and big supply of novelties of every de- Scription- T. w. Morton is keeping his auditors in roars of laughter every
 minute he is on the stage, with his every-ready line of talk and his clever rendition of numerous popular airs on the harmonica- Hunter & Tika pre- sent a lively and highly entertaining singing, talking and dancing skit and
 are given a warm reception at every appearance.
 Mccarthy and Major, in their screaming comedy farce and W. G. Rails. the fire juggler make up the vaudeville numbers on the bill.
 The Power of Conscience' a two reel Essanay special feature is the ad- ded attraction. The Power of Con science tells a. powerful story and is intensely interesting. The Tender foot Hero,'' and ''The BeIls go to make up one of the finest bills seen in Bridgeport in sometime.
 For Thursday, Friday and Saturday the management has secured, by spe- cial arrangement, Orville Stamn, known as the boy Hercules. Stanm is a California youth possessing al- most supernatural strength and is but seventeen years of age. He performs many difficult feats, among them. the l playing of violin with a. giant bull l dog hanging from his wrist The bull was a present. from James J. Jeffries l who was astonished by the stunts per formed by the lad. He also holds a | piano and a piano player on his chest while the piano player goesson play l ing many popular pieces. This act | Is sure to be a decided hit here, this | being his last appearance in New England as he is booked for an indef- | mite engagement in New York.

Today there will be shown for the last time at this theatre the greatest war drama ever exhibited in this city and in fact ever produced. Costing Thousands of dollars with a cast that includes the Secretary of War and a Rear-Admiral of the U. s. Navy. The picture was produced with the aid and permission of the U. S. Navy and is a most wonderful film Crowded houses have viewed the pictures for two days and although the management has en- deavored to hold the pictures for an other day, today will be the last, as it Is booked at another city after today and the booking cannot be changed. Those who fail to see this great picture today will have missed a remarkable feature picture.

It is the only copy in this country and has been secured at great expense. It will be shown continuously from 1:3O till Il p. n-

Dublin, Ireland, Sept. 3-The situa- ton brought about by the strike of transport workers in Dublin was ren- dered more acute, today, by a lockout in the coal trade.

PADDED RING MIGHT
 HAVE PREVENTED DEATH
(BW T. s. Andrews )

It is unfortunate that following so close on the death of Luther McCarty at Calgary, Canada, another fatality should fbe recorded at Los Angeles, the victim being 'eBuIT'' John Young, like McCarty, a, cowboy from the state of Wyoming. It is also a queer coin cident that Young was a, training part ner of McCarty before the latter met his death and he was being groOued for a contest with Arthur Pelkey, the man who was boxing McCarty when the latter was killed. Young was fighting Jess Willard, the man whom McCarty was to have fought, and in the eleventh round he was knocked out by a. blow to the jaw. In falling it is claimed he fractured his skull, never recovering from the effects. This brings to mind again the fact that many boxers insist upon having hard rings, even when the promoters pro- test against it.
 From all accounts the ring floor at Vernon, where the fight took place, was very hard. Had it been well padded the result might not have been so serious. It will be said that sport ing writers will make the claim that more people are killed in other sports than in boxing, and all that, which is true, but that does not help matters any. It is unfortunate of course, but there is no reason why the boxing game should be stopped as a result of the sad accident; what should lbe done is to have laws passed which will make the game more safe and have a commission to oversee all contests and see that the laws and rules are enforced. It will be quite knock to the heavy weight class, and just at a time when there were numerous big white hopes being developed.
 The calling off of the Pe1key- Mill Ter flight at Los Angeles, Sept. 23, will make quite a, difference with the plans of Tommy Burns, manager of Pelkey. Tommy had planned an active cam paign for his big white heavy weight and was after a, match with G unboat Smith for the American title. Writ ing from Seattle the day before the accident to Bull Young, Tommy says: Have been taking a run home for a few days before return to Venice and get PeIkey in shape for his match with Charlie Miller. have no doubt that PeIkey will defeat the California man, and then after he beats Gunboat Smith I intend going after the color ed gentlemen.
 You may think am unwise, Tom. but you can take it from me that if Pelkey ever gets into the ring with Jack Johnson he will beat him sure. Johnson is not there any more With the stamina and I know it, and I also for he tried it on me whan I was like a kid along side of him. I may be censured by some people for th1s move, but feel that I made a, mistake when gave him chance in Australia and I want to redeem myself Dy haV- ing this man take the title away from the black man. It is not an idle boast but my honest opinion is that Pelkey will do just what have old yoH.
 About the same time that TCna1ny Burns was saying a good word for his champion, Barney Lichtenstein, the new manager for Carl Morris, came I along with a statement that the Okla hona giant would be the big frog in the puddle before another year had passed. Larney says that it is the ann

The passing of veterans from the big tent is always attended with con siderable regret. The old players are usually very popular and the fans hate to see them pass out, but new and young blood is always wanted and the old-timer has to pass. Arthur Dew lin and Joe Lake are the latest to de- part to the minors on the journey that will in the near future mean oblivion. They will slip even further down as the batting eye aims, the base-steal- ing props slow up and the old limbs fail to stoop quick enough for a ground ball. Baseball is not a game of sentiment, sometimes.

An interesting story betraying some of the inside workings of baseball pol itics has developed from the an- nounced sale of Pitcher George Davis to the Boston Nationals. Davis sup posedly was a member of the Jersey City team when the announcement was made. According to the story, Davis who is a son of wealthy Buffalo parents and a graduate of Williams college, where his pitching prowess so took the peerless scout, Arthur IT, win, by storm that he signed him for the New York Americans, who lat CT turned him over to the Skeeters. has admirers who believe that he has the stuff to make good in the big show and influence was brought to bear on Manager George Stallings of the Braves. Stallings was just then ar ranging deal with the Rochester club for the exchange of players whereby Finn, Schmidt and Quinn of the Hustlers, already have been sold to Boston, while Devlin has been sent to Rochester by Boston. So he ask ed the Rochester club to buy Davis and in turn sell him to the Boston club. The Jersey City owners were unaware that Davis was to go to the big league, when the papers deliver ing him to Rochester were signed and sealed.

ASK THE GIRLS
And You'll Find Out the True Sentiment of An Eight
Hour Law Since in Certain Industries They Stand
on Their Feet That Number of Hours.

This is the lesson humanity seems
never to learn.
The mutability, the evanescence OF
all things.
What is important today, is unim-
portant tomorrow.
The necessity of the hour is the
superhuity of the next.
The insistence upon a point may
appear of overpowering significance.
In a weeks time its inconsequence
is obvious.
You care a lot about a thing for
awhile-and then you suddenly find
you care about it absolutely not at
all.
1t is this phase of human vagary
that makes havoc of the marriage re-
lation and strains the ties of blood.
1t can't be laughed away.
1t exists.
And it is one of the most sardonic
and vivid realities of life.
Although life has no reality as re-
atty is understood by the average,
The unreality of life imposes itself
more anu more Oh Tue lHulSluudl de-
it fits away.
Therefore the absurdity of many
of our social laws and customs.
To return there is no discountine
the importance Of the eight hour law
for women.
Nor the minimum wage scale.
Both measures will be stubbornly
fought.
Because they touch private interest
And when you touch private interest
you have touched the sensitive eco
nomic nerve.
