REGULAR SHOOT OF
 WILLIAMS GUN CLUB

Bang, went Dr. Melick's gun and the opening shoot of the regular shotgun season was opened last Sun day, under the Dupont handicap system. Fourteen members squint- ed their eyes 25 times and wondered why all the bluerocks wouldn't break. Some blamed it to the new platform, others to the different shape of the new trap house, while a couple of the members becoming angry shot holes in the dirt, declar- ing it was the guns fault, but as usual the majority laid it on to the man behind the gun. Anyway it was grand success and with a membership of nearly 35 the future of the 1913 club is assured.

POLI'S.

l Bridgeport theatrical enthusiasts are 1 to be afforded a rare treat in the de- l lightfu1 pre-Christmas bill of all high | class acts that opened yesterday at | the big POli theatre in Main street to | continue for the remainder of the | week. Headed by the Great Leon, the l most wonderful prestidigator of the world, who remained here for the en- l tire week by special request, and who performs all new tricks for the bill of the last half of the week in addition to one or two from the first portion of the week, it is a delightful and high class program all the way through.
 His own conception of the great 1evitation act in which his woman as-
 sistant is raised in mid-air, and many
 more new tricks are presented in ad-
 dition to his chief illusion known as
 Fire and Water in which she dis
 appears in a flask of flames and re-
 appears under water. He continues to rnystify the great crowds daily with
 his wonderful and daring accomplish ments.
 TBig crowds attended all three per formances yesterday and one of the greatest hits scored was by Fredo 6 Primrose, a duo of classy perform CTS who appear in whirlInind act of musical comedy and character stud ies. They play many instrurnen ents and put over a DIE SuTpT1Se on the spec tators with a mysterious set of musi- cal bells about which there is a sec ret to unfold. Both are clever char acter artists and high class comedians. Oliver & White won big applause in distinctively novel singing, talking and dancing act, with p1entitude of clean comedy that has a laugh in every line. They appear in a riot of costume.
 The Flying DeMars, a troupe of the most daring aerial gymnasts in the country thrilled the big audiences with their wonderful feats of nerve and strength. They appear in the bill in place of Blanche Sloan, whose en- gagement had to be cancelled because of the loss of her paraphernaIia- in transportation between Wilkes-Barre and this city. Al Lawrence, a mono logist of great ability keeps the audi ence in a roar of laughter with his impersonations and comedy facial ex- pressions.
 A scream of laughter is afforded in the novel comedy sketch, entitled ''The Man Next Door, which is presented by Sehreck, Darvil1e 6 Dutton. An episode of theatrical life is shown which is a, sure fire fun producer. The trio won warm favor and are sure to be a big drawing card for the week. Scores of handsome prizes appropriate to the Christmas season will be given away at the Country store tonight and a riot of fun will be furnished Special first run photoplays are being shown all this week. Souvenirs will be given away to the children at the Saturday matinee.

culty in surrendering the ring to the consulate. Your letter and then your telegram were handed to the consul, who on the telegraphed orders of
 Frankasch replied to you as he was df-
 rected. Of course he knew nothing.
 He merely obeyed orders. But you must not think our surveillance was limited to San Francisco. The whole
 western coast from Vancouver to San

 Your majesty will, of course, give

 ''No, no, no! You do not understand MT. Broughton. Frankasch never ac- cused you of theft. It suited his pur- pose to make you out innocent-a sailor who had picked up the ring for trf- fe, for he would have been glad had you brought suit against the jewellers in order to force from you the parttc- ulars of how you came into possession of the ring. It was even arranged to guide you to lawyer who should be- tray your confidence! Shameful, yes, detestable, but were we not justified? ?' The old man unrolled a chart and fattened it out, not without difficulty, 1 on the bed. Painfully excited, with his emaciated hands shaking and his voice sen1le and broken, he besought Matt to show him the spot where his son was.
 There said Matt, running his fin ger over the sheet to a speck marked
 Reef e. d." '"There, your ma1esty!"
 The old emperor bowed his head over the chart and seemed to be strug- gling with terrible emotion. Gall Ad- miraI von Todloben," he gasped, fall ing back on his pillows. tI must in struct him to alter the ships course at Once.''

EMPIRE

As depicted in the photodrama, a, Checkers" is a IoVab1e young man, and he has the weaknesses of that character. His mothers death is the signal for his downfall. He begins to gamble, at the suggestion of a 1eath- cry and humorous young tough named
 fPush,' and is helped to freedom by the same resourceful young pug when the joint is raided. Push is made of enduring material. He is un- troubled by ethics of any known kind, a hard piece of driftwood tossed about on the waves of circumstances, a firm believer that chance rules the world. He persuades ffCheckers'' to leave town in freight ear when q crime committed during the raid is wrongly attributed to Checkers" and the two beat their way to C1arksvi1Ie, Ark, brother adventures far more for1orn than the knights errant of Dumas and Scott.
 Perhaps it is the feeling that these two unarned young knights are really travelling in search of adventure that holds interest in the vagrant story, for only the horses of Clarksvil1e's racetrack would have arrested the at tention of Wentworth. They com pletely fasten the attention of "Checl1- ers'' and Push to the extent that the former obtains honest work in humble capacity at the stables and the latter finds an easy mark when he touts the winner of a race. Push promptly loses at crap-sho ooting all he has made. He is such a delightfully."- human character, and is so delight fully impersonated by Jack Began, that Thomas w. Ross as tCheckers'' is hard put to hold the interest built up around his role. To Push" will go the honors, so far as the audience is concerned.
 The ''atmosphere" of that part of the story pertaining to the adventures of ''Checkers'' and Push at the racetrack greatly enriches and deepens interest in the action, giving it so much significance than the village scenes grow tame in comparison. It is only when the races are over that 'fCheckers'' and Push are drawn into the village social whirlpool, and the author of the story now seems to feel it his painful duty to introduce a love interest. "Checkers' will be shown today and Saturday.

LYRIC

George Kleine's photo drama produc- tions, t'The Last Days of Pompeii'' and stQuo Vadis,'' have gained for MT. ISleine a reputation as the foremost and greatest producer of photo plays in the world On account of the great popularity that these two productions have gained for the producer and the successful and wonderful exhibition at the Lyric theatre of t'The Last Days of Pompeii,'' the management have se- cured George Kleine's latest produc- ton, 'HThe Sunken Treasure" This play is not of the same character as Quo Vadis'' or f'Tne Last Days Of Pompeii,'' but is more on the modern style and deals with incidents of the present time. It is a remarkably pow erfu1 story of the submarine gardens Of the sea and a highly sensational story of adventure. The picture, the same as ''Pompeii'' and Quo Vadis,'' was made in Italy and brings to us scenes of impressive beauty, surprising views underneath the sea, in which df- vers are seen at work on the ocean bottom, exciting trips aboard speedy boats, flying trains, and recklessly driven automobiles
 This remarkable photo drama will be shown for the first time in Bridge port, matinee and evening, at the Lyric theatre today and tomorrow on a pro gram with one other big feature

ATTRACTIONS 1.-THE THEATRES
TROCADEROS WITH FRANK FINNEY AT
 PARK THEATRE

The Trocadero Bur1esquers, with Frank Finney, at the Park, proved an array of versatile, entertaining and clever talent parade for the amuse ment of the better class of theatre going patrons. It is doubtful if this years travestfes have produced the equal of this aggregation Of top-notch principals.
 The book in two acts is rep1ete with novelty, quip, comp1exity of situation and clever chorus uanipula ton. Mu- sical numbers are both new and well distributed, and the choristers are well costumed. Both acts contain good scenic effects There is but one possi- ble criticism besides the apparent length of the production, that with many stellar parts none is given that freedom which permits of individual distinction. A grand opera chorus of male voices adds materially.
 Frank Finney presents hunor which sinks deep. Sam J. Adams specfaltzes comedy which is infectious. Florence Mills is both beautiful in costume and voice. Minnie Burke is the same ac- tive and alluring soubrette as of yore. Zella Clayton charms m ingenue parts. Catherine Crawford and Florence Rus sell distinguish in modern linguistic roles. Lillian English is graced with charm, individuality and dramatic power. John P. Grifnth is seen in dou- bIe character which adds to his many past 1aur els.
 Many successful musical numbers are rendered during the show, Of too frequent success to make their men ton possible.
 The TEocaderos come to this city for the appfobation of the public and fol- lowing several shows of less rating, are to be congratulated. Play gcers commend the Columbia circuit for an attempt to elevate bur1eSque to nigh CT plane than heretofore.

THE PLAZA

A riot of color, melody and mirth, College Girl Students" the big mu- sica1 comedy that is holding the head last half of the week, scored trium- phant1y last night before one of the largest first night audiences of the sea- son. There are seven pretty girls and three men in the act and the scene is laid in a medical college for girls. The professor is having his hands full in keeping the minds of his rnischievous young pupils on their studies and he is made the butt of a good line Of jokes that keep the audisnce in an uprOar throughout the scene. There's an old saying that one good laugh deserves another and Hamilton and Barnes in their nonsensicaI oddfty entitled, "Just Fun" afford the other. The slzit could not have been better named, for it is just one long, lingering laugh from be- ginning to end. May Lloyd had things her own way from the start, for the f1rst-ni ghters liked her style of singing songs and they were not bashful about showing it. The Azard Brothers; in an exhibition of strength and muscular development, were given a hearty wei come. Coogan & CoOgan offered a com edy singing, talking and dancing num- Der that was well received Where the Road Forks" an absorbing drama in two parts, showing the famous jewel scene from "Faust'' '"The Horse Thief a riotously funny comedy, and Ward of Senior Glass; composed the photoplay program.
