The New Britain Teachers club will present a play entitled "A Rus sian Honeymoon" at the High school auditorium on Feb, II. This play is an adaptation of the play of Eugene Scribe, the famous French playwright and it was the very best play the committee of arrangements could possibly secure. Wherever produced, the play has met with popular favor, and it will undoubtedly be well re- ceived by a local audience. The reg ular date of presentation is Thursday evening evening, Feb. Il, but there Is a possibility that it will be repeated at a special matinee on the following Saturday afternoon, Feb. 13. The committee or arrangem ments, in choos- ing the cast, has endeavored to Sc feet actors as far as possible, from different schools in the city. Miss Mary E. Campbell, Miss Wescott and w. F.. Fay compose the committee of arrangements. J. C. Moody has charge of the business end, while the staging and direction of the play has been placed in the hands of Miss Campbell and Miss Wescott. Prof. George B. Matthews will direct the music and Prof. Joseph Wiseltier, head of the drawing department, will direct the stage settings
 The cast is as follows:
 Demetrovitch koulikosf .......
 ....... Marshall r. Davis Alexis Petrovitch Carl E. Dempsey Ossip ........... William l.. Hagen Ivan ......... William F. Fay Poleska ..... Miss Loretta Caufeld Michiline .. Miss Grace Cadman E Russian folk dancers, shoemakers, peasants, guards, etc.
