 Dozen in New York.

New York, Feb. 10.-The price of bread was increased today from five to six cents throughout New York city and vicinity.

Unique features are characteristic in the make up of the program at Keeneys this week. There are sev- eral novel acts on the bill and each turn has some distinctive point that stands out prominently.

 The Fields Brothers Stock company which is the headline attraction again
 this week is presenting ''Whirl-a- Gig" a musical comedy in miniature

 duction. It is a cleverly arranged
 piece, the songs are catchy and the
 humor is of excellent quality. The

LARGE AUDIENCES
 AT POLTS, HARTFORD

The Blindness of Virtue" is being presented before capacity audiences twice daily all this week by the Poli Players at Polls theater. Sir Cosmo Hamilton wrote the play. He was the editor of an English paper. The force of the lesson which The Blind ness of Virtue" teaches is mainly re- sponsible for it's popularity. In a word it shows the decided advantage of a mother informing her daughter in time of the ways of the world and of the battles she will encounter It is a sweet play dealing with real everyday people who face real prob lems. It's presentation by the Poli Players is acknowledged to be a tri- umph for them. It is drawing capa- city audiences twice each day. "I1 is a play that every mother and daugh- ter should sec,' said the Rev. c. H. Parkhurst.

VILLAGES IN EUROPE:
"7$hA =
ARE RUN BY WOMEN
Weaker Sex, Forced by Neces-
sity, Takes Up Odd Ca|Iings.

London.-OWing to the war women
are taking up many odd callings to
make up for the shortage of men, but
in the country women have always
done whatever lies nearest to their
hand.
In the village the butcher, the baker,
the candlestick maker, may all be wo-
men, and there is at least one small
town in Devon in which women form
the chief business element. The prin-
cipal hotel is run by a woman and her
daughter; a woman deftly cuts the
joints and orders her son about.
A bakeress bakes the incest bread,
and her daughter trudges far into the
country with two baskets slung on her
back, a picturesque figure of the fe-
| male worker. The wine merchant is
woman who worked up a nice little
business, while a chemists shop is
owned by woman, to say nothing of
the trades which are to be found every
where, sweetstuff shops, fancy shops
and the like
france, being a country where uni
versal service is the rule is nowadays
depending largely on the work Of wo-
men, but even in the times Of peace
there were places where they were the
chief citizens. At FrOissy, in the de-
partment Of Disc, most of the public
appointments are held by women and
will be until their present holders die.
There is postmistress instead of
n0Sf1n1 G toll
is run by woman; a station mistress
directs the pOrters at the local station;
a lady barber cuts the hair of the COM
munity, and the town crier also tacks
less" on to the name Of her calling.
In most cases these posts were held
by husbands or brothers, and the vii
| layers considered their female relatives
were their legitimate successors. This
is also partly the case in the English
town mentioned, although in some
cases daughters have succeeded moth
ers to the general satisfaction.
Another French community is also
directed by women, not by chance, but
| by custom and necessity This is the
rocky island Of Ushant, dreaded by
sailors, which breeds a hardy race Of
seamen engaged either in the French
| navy or mercantile marine or in fish,
| ing, the work on land being done by
| women.
In Russia a community of seven vii
lagos with long names is entirely ruled
| by women. Each village possesses a
| nlayoress, and the offices Of magistrate
and policeman and rostniaster- fact,
| every administrative post-are also fill
ed by the gentlcr sex. Some fifty years
ago bad epidemic occurred. and the
! men made such 4 mudde Of affairs and
behaved so badly that the women took
over the government to save them
selves from starvation. So successful
were they that they have continued to
direct affairs ever since.

An aeroplane destroyer" designed
for attacking dirigible airships, has
been perfected in Italian government
workshops in the last few months. It
is an enormous machine with three
separate engines and with a total en-
ergy Of more than 25O horsepower.
It consists, in fact, of the bodies of
two ordinary tractor biplanes placed
side by side and far enough apart so
that there is room between them for
the propeller of third engine. Each
of the two main bodies has its own
engine and tractor screw in front, so
that 1t looks at first like two ordinary
tractor biplanes flying hand In hand
On the section of wing which Joins

this way the body projects welt for

thirty thousand bushels this tall, if
the crop is good. With reasonable
success we should have 200 to 300
members by October, and the Lake

should have a very fair amount of
berries to ship next fall, and should
