ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

19o0-Terry McGovern knocked out Tommy White in 3rd round at Coney Island. Later in the same year White again fought Terrible Terry in Mill waukee, and was defeated. He then retired from the ring, White was a native of Chicago, where he was known as the Board of Trade Pet, and while he was never featherweight champion, he was one of the strong est, cIeverest little men the ring has ever held. His first real fight was in 1889, when he fought a 54-round draw with Tommy Morgan. In 1892 he went to Minneapolis and fought 10 rounds with Ike Weir. and, although it was a draw. the Pet had the best of the affair with the Belfast Spider. In the same year he fought 32-round draw with. Austrian Billy Murphy, and in 1893 he got a, draw with Young Griffo, the clever Australian. In 1896 he fought a 20-round draw with George Dixon, the featherweight champion. and knocked out Eddie Santry. In 1897 White fought a 25- round draw with Solly Smith, who soon afterward became champion, and defeated t'Gentleman Jack Sl<elly. In 1898 he again fought draws with Dixon and Solly Smith. but was de- feated by Dixon in Denver the, fo1- lowing year.

AnuSementS
PLAZA

To-day is the last opportunity To- cal theatre goers will have to see 1b- sens powerful moral play, Ghosts being shown at the Plaza. Ghosts which is produced in five parts is one of the greatest exhortations against vice ever delivered and is more re- markabIe and more acceptable in theme than Damaged Goods to which it is somewhat closely allied in basic plot. Henry B. Walthau as the father and Marry Alden as the wife are featured in the film and by superb acting carry the story to a most stirring climax
 The vaudeville menu is made up of the May Party, a musical comedy in miniature with nine clever young starsff most of them girls in a reper- toire of fascinating songs and dances that is p1easingly ,interspersed with some well pointed humor.
 Above comparison with any other act of it's type that has been seen here in at least a year, Wah1, & Jackson are scoring a, phenomenal hit at ev- cry appearance. They have sp1en- did voices and know just how to show them to the best advantage Songs, dances, comedy chatter and piano1ogue compose the skit.
 The remainder of the bill is taken care of by Si and Mary Stebbins the two -yaps from Slab City in a scream ingIy funny card offering and Don court & Mack in a singing and conn edy talking skit.
 Charlie Chaplin in one of his fun. niest Keystone successes and t'The Rightfu1 Theft compose the bill.

POLI'S

Trovato, the eccentric yfoli11ist who boasts more imitators than any other artist in vaudeville, is proving -verit- able riot at Polls, where he heads an exceptional program of vaude- vile and photoplay attractions. Tro- vato certainly can play the violin, while his eccentricities and his innita- tions are excruciatingly funny. He wins a big reception at each perfor- nance, and Bridgeporters who love good music should avail themselves of the final opportunity tonight to hear Trovato.
 The photop1ay feature, ''The Mid dleman," Limitation of America's s most beloved dramatic success, brings back to America Albert Che valier. the noted English character comedian. MT. Chevalier has a won derful part in this great film play and is capable supported by a, big cast of stars.
 Harry & Eva Puck, the former a a dainty comedienne, are winning new 1aure1s daily with their songIand skit, Sunshine and Showers
 'A Mile a Minute.'' the big scenic spectacle, featuring a race between an auto and train, will be presented for the last time tonight, having been held over for the last half of the week in response to popular request.
 Other features of the vaudeville bill are: Si1veno in music, magic and shadowgraphs; Mile. Dure. 1ffthe pet of Paris, in classic dances and songs; and the Three Brightons, two girls and a boy, in a variety novelty called ''Shopping.''

lieve that any effective instru- ment of warfare will be abandon ed as long as war continues.
 The very arguments which the advocates of peace advance against the submarine. the aero plane, and the Zeppelin are ad- vanced for them by those who conduct war. The more fatal a weapon is, the more it is in de- mand, and it is not an unusual thing to see a new instrument of destruction denounced as inhu- man by those against whom 1t is employed only to be employed later by those who only a little while before denounced 1t.
 The above suggestions are re- spectfully submitted to those of German birth or descent, and they are submitted in the same spirit to naturalized citizens from other countries. To the natural ized citizen this is the land of adoption, but in one sense it may be nearer to him than it is to us who are native born, for those who come her are citizens by vol untary choice, while we are here by accident or birth. They may be said to have paid a higher compliment to the United States than we who first saw the light under the Stars and Stripes. But, more than that, it is the land of their children and their chfl- dren's children, no matter for what reason they crossed the ocean. They not only share with us the shaping of our nations destiny, but their descendants have a part with ours in all the blessings. which the present gen. eration can. by wise and patriotic action bequeath to the genera tions that are to follow.

LYRIC

This past week has been a strenuous one at the Lyric theatre. What with giving nine performances of little Johnny Jones', and rehearsing the play which is to be presented at the theatre next week, .'The Firefly,'' the members of the Calburn Musical Com edy company have not found time ly- ing idle on their hands They have 6put in a number of extra rehearsa1s on '"The FirefIy'' for this play is one of the most difficult, as regards score and lyrics, being. played on the Amer1- can stage today.
 The Ca1burn company has been whipped into fine shape under the di- rection of Ross Mobley and Alonzo Price, the first one directing the music and the latter the show itself, and the play is now ready for presentation. The management is confident that the Bridgeport theatres going public will receive the surprise of it's existence when it ses the Trentini success, sThe Ffrefly'' presented in Bridgeport for the first time at popular prices
 The scenery costumes, and every thing in connection with the show. will be on a par with the ones used in the original production, and there will be several new members in the company to assist in putting on the pretentious production. '-The FErefly'' should prove to be the best thing the Cal burn company has yet given Bridge port.
