MARDI eRAs AT
ARMoRY EXPOSITION. Frolicsonae Crowd Made Good Natured Fun in the Final Hours.

Saturday afternoon was the chii- dren's day at the armory at the Nor wich Industrial and Good Home expo sition conducted by the Norwich coun- cil of Commercial Travellers and the evening was the appointed time for the closing feature. Both had large at tendances, and in the evening the promised Mardi Gras event was car- ried out with complete success. Many of the exhibitors took early precaution to save their exhibits from possible injury and packed up soon after 0 o'clock.
 When the Mardi Gras merriment was let loose with the air filled with confetti or long streamers of serpen- tine, the frohcsome crowd entered heartily and good naturedly into the spirit of the evening and the individ- uals that walked or danced up and vari-colored paper, while the bobbing red caps from the Kellogg grape juice booth that every exhibitor and com mitteeman wore were conspicuous ature that added to the carnival air.
 Business was forgotten and the Providence bakery booth was aimcsL mobbed when all the bread members of the Doe and Bunny family were given away and the big 15-foot loaf was cut up. Soon the pieces of bakery stuff were found to serve admirably for sharpshooting and were flying all around the hall. Corn and grain from the Norwich Grain company booth also frequently dropped down the back of some unsuspecting victim. The merry performance lasted until nearly Il o'clock, when it was time to put the lightss out and call the first exposition of the Commercial Travellers at an end

Two associated efforts that have occupied the attention of Norwich peo- pie for the last seven days-Mer- chants Week and the Norwich Indus trial and Good Home Exposition con- ducted at the armory by the Norwich council of Commercial Travellers came to an end Saturday and each with an experience that was declared gratifying by those directly interested.
 On the Merchants Week side the programme arranged for Saturday af- terneen and evening with band con- certs at different points around the business streets was successfully car- ried out, although somewhat damp ened in the evening by rain. From 2 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon Tubbs' band of "A pieces. conducted by John M. Swahn, and with drum maper Themas B. Linton in the lead carried out the programme to the enjoyment of large crowds. Again in the eve ming from 7.30 to S.30 they gave an- singers under Professor w E. Geary also sang from a motor truck and were @ popular part of the entertain ment The Taftville Maennerchor members also were on hand in motor truck but when the rain came down heavily they decided not to continue and departed for Taftville.

Downes recorded their largest day in giving fare having 80 books presented, which represented total purchases of $9e1 and made the total purchases for the week on which fare rebates had been given amount te s4,174.92.

AT THE DAVIS.
The Red Rose.

The Red Rose, @ musical comedy, pretty in eostuming and scenic effects and tunefuI in melody, was given in matinee and evening performances at the Davis theatre on Saturday, but with audiences hardly adequate for the merit of the show. The scenes were Parisian throughout and the particu- larly beautiful scenic effects were reached in the second and third acts, the baron's chateau and the ballroom in the Quartier Latin, respectively. Girls, gowns and music, with some bright comedy parts, were the com- ponent parts of the show. and all were satisfying. AS the artists model. Lot tie Kendall played the lead with dra- matic ability and stage presence eminently fitted to the part, while Syl- va Jason gave @ spirited interpretation of Gyp. the vivacious little art student In the hands of Maurice Darcy, George Graham, Earl McHaff1e and Carl George, the comedy work was admiva- bly done, and the musical number u al was the star in the offering was the tenor solo I Hear You Calling Me by Henri Le Bonte.
 The company had the well deserved favor Of their audiences in frequent curtain calls.

 1t was the general expression on the part of all the exhibitors that the eX- position had been a success and they hal been amply repaid along business lines for coming to the Norwfch expo S1tlOn. ana one IIldn Sdlu lic Idd eIOiAS more business here than he had done in an exposition at Buffalo, N. Y.
 Whatever topic speaker started upon, he was sure at some time to re- vers to King Fred" with words of ,f praise for his tactful and admirable conduct of the exposition in all lines, and although MT. Prescott as toast. t. master tried to turn the remarks m other channels, he could not stem the tide of praise coming his way.
 Poems were recited by B. C. Carter and MT. Prescott, and among those who spoke were Fred Burns, s. J. ke- hoe Alexander Jordan. Emil A. Fox H. W. Lang, Charles s. Peckham. W. F Lester, F. H.
