A "seawall' OF stone. constructed about
twelve years ago to reinforce the track
nearest 10 the river. has been washed
away. The wall was Installed after
passenger train had run into the river at
this point. A similar accident was mar
royly averted tonight. The Metropolitan
Express had reached point near the
washout before the unsafe condition Of
the track was discovered. and II was
stopped only a short distance from the
place.
Not in years has the New York Central
experienced so much trouble between New
York and Albany ms il has tonight az
the result OF the severe windstorm. Tele-
graph wires at Cold Spring and Rhine
elf are down. and with only one track
in use, the trains are moving very eau
tiously to avoid accidents.

powerful marine glasses 1t could be seen
that the captain and crew were making

pressed that she would be able to weather

surf boats could not live In the seas. The
flag hclsted when the schooner first came
to anchor gave way to signal lights when
darkness came. and these signals were
displayed at intervals up to midnight.
The government men are hopeful that the
crippled vessel Is still seaworthy. with

of the schooner lies In being sighted by
tug or steamer plying along the coast.

PROGRESSIVE WHEEL BURLESQUE MAY v
 COME TO EMPIRE

Progressive wheel burlesque may be ly. Frank A. Keeney, proprietor of the theater, was in Bridgeport yester- day and spent the night here inspect ing his theater and reviewing the thea trical situation. MT. Keeney contern- plates a change in policy at the Elm pire theater which is the only play house in the chain he controls, devoted entirely to motion pictures. His oth- CT theaters are given over to the pro- duction of stock drama, vaudeville or burlesque. MT. Kesney said last night that he had not yet made up his mind whether or not he would change the polity of the Bridgeport house but that he had under consideration pro- ducing Progressive wheel bur1esque three days each week with a produc- ton by one of his stock companies the other three days.

THE PLAZA

Judging from the crowds that pack the cozy Plaza Theatre thrice daily, it looks as if Manager Callan meant what he said when he stated that ne had arranged the biggest bill of. the season for this week and that he ex- pected the biggest business of the sea son as well. Each act on the excel lent program is in itself worth the small price of admission charged, for it is an all headline bill from the start to the finish. Kessely's Marionetles, one of the most delightfully."- amusing and intensely interesting acts ever staged in a local playhouse is making a big hit, especially with the children, who laugh till they're sore at these funny mechanical actors and the tiny spectators in the miniature boxes, who applaud and laugh at the dancers, jug glers, clowns wire walkers and other artists who perform on the handsome ly appointed miniature stage. Done ta & Co., have a distinctive spot on the program and, to use the vernacular, they "clean up'' at every appearance for Doneta is without doubt the best character singer local theatregoers have ever seen and she is assisted at the piano by a very pretty and talent ed young woman. Her impersona- tions are a scream, especially that of a petted six-year old child trying to sing ana TSIFaln rom crying at C1e9 same time. Then come Edwards and Brown with one of the snappiest and funniest singing acts you could wish to see. Their songs are all new and the way these boys put them over could not be improved upon, a fact that is appreciated by the audience at every performance for they are given rounds of applause. Fred LeDuke & Co, present a riotously funny sketch with just enough flavor of dra- ma to make it delightfully."- interesting The plot is written around the at tempt of three clever society crooks to get possession of a valuable neck lace from a wealthy bankers safe. They all enter the house at about the same time and each one. in his effort to fool the other assumes the role of some member of the household. The situations that follow keep the laughs reds hot. Three pretty and daintiIy gowned comediennes, Long, Chapron and Green make up the vaudeville mum bers. These girls sing and dance and one works in the auditorium of the theatre.
 ..An Orphans Romance in two reels, teThe Champion and Beware of the Paint are included in the photoplay program.

PATENTS
HOUSEHOLD NOTES

It is a convenience to make vege- table bags of cheesecloth, into which you put celery, tomatoes, lettuce and other fresh vegetables before placing in the refrigerator.
 If drawer space is limited, tack tape around the sides of a bureau drawer at intervals, making each loop large enough to hold a neatly folded pair of stockings.
 A good play dress for child can be made from mans worn shirt. Cut it Dorothy style, and the work is very little, not to mention the saving in the youngsters clothes.
 A recipe for axle grease is a pound of tal1ow, half pound of castor oil, quarter of 8 pound of black lead. Melt the tallow and rub the whole well to- gether.
 Vaseline stains may be removed from wash goods by soaking in wood alcohol and rubbing with the hands Then wash in hot soap suds. Keep the alcohol away from fire.
 To test tea, burn 8 small quantity on a metal plate With good tea the amount of ash remaining is small, in- creasing in Quantity as the quality of the sample tested deteriorates.
 Even when there is cream in the coffee, stains can be removed from the most delicate silk or wooden fabrics by brushing the spots with pure gly- cerine and rinsing in lukewarm water
 If you have not access to nl1ot water bag when it is needed, a good substitute is a flannel bag filled with hot sand or salt. A good idea is to keep half dozen little ones filled and ready.
 In pressing any clothes or goods where it is customary to place cloth over them when ironing, use news paper instead. It gives a gloss to rib bon or silk, leaves no line and stiffens cambric.l
 Bake small portion of beans in a little earthen jar the size of tea-cup and put 1t in the children's lunch box es. Such cup is good used for cus- tards, scalloped potatoes or a favo- rite pudding.
