PLAZA

when .The Gardening TraiP' was booked into the Plaza it was not be- cause of the. fact that the title was at- tractive or held an air of mystery about it, but simply because it was one of the greatest dramatic successes far given birth to and also because William & Hart, the peerless star was featured in the picture, and any film that is blessed with the portrait of Hart is simply bound to be good MT. Hart never had a more sforcefu1 role than that Of Yukon Ed'' in the ssQarkening TraT's which is released in four parts and which will be shown the latter half of the week at the Plaza. The story seems to have been built around him. and his mas terftxag looking jaws. Those who en- joy the ~thril1s of supefb dramatic ac- ton will find them to their hearts delight in .tThe Darkening Trail" ;"
 The Black & White Review. a mod arn minstrel creation with four .strlk- 4ng1y attractive young women and three con1icaI young men in black face,' making up the cost should prove an ideal vaudeville number. The act is so far out of the ordinary that it is practically original, though a ninssen offering g, aI1ds the numbers used in 1t are new from start to fin ish.
 A beautiful stage setting of immense proportions will be, displayed Leo Farrell 6 Co, refined entertainers in a novel hand balancing act; Brennan & Carr in their screaming1y funny singing, talking and dancing oddity entitled 'tFeua1o 1on-the Docks; and the Three Norrie Sisters in a fascina,- ting review of songs and dances that will surely be appreciated by local audiences.
 Caught in the Rainp' will be the title of the Keystone in which funny Charlie Chaplin will make his bow hearty laugh should see the picture for there are laughs in abundance. Her Fflm1and Hero, an entertaining g '.lkid's picture will also be shown.

Reorganization Of the City Normal school, with a view to broadening the curpiculum and the school space, will probably be effected at the meeting of the board of education to be held next Wednesday evening in the board rooms at the city hall.
 The establishment of model school, such as many cities have and ap ractice1school distinct from, the normal school, were recomnended- The practice school is necessitated, the committee on schools reported at the meeting last night, because the classes in the normal school are be- coming so large. that it is impossible to accommodate them in the present school building by placing them in rooms.
 It is planned to have the model school with an expert in charge of each room, for the observation and limited practice of members of the junior class. Clinton avenue school, to which it is planned to make an eight room addition. will be used for the model school and for part of the Normal school. Bryant school, it is practice school.
 A broader academic course in the Normal school is recommended, es- pecially for English and Science.
 Larger classes then ever before are filling the Normal school. This year there are. 39 members in the junior class and Is in the senior class and it is probable that 40 will be in the in coming junior class. In September, in the neighborhood of 80 persons will be in the school.
 The report of the committee on schools favoring these plans was re- ceived at the meeting last night but not accepted, Commissioner A. w. Bell had never heard of it and he wanted time to think about it. Ac- cordfng1y, the report was laid over. to

PARENTS ALMOST. GL JED TO SEATS
 WATCHING PUPILS
Fond Mammas Stick to Poorly Vanished Chairs
 at Lincoln School.

When fond parents at the com mencement exercises held in the Lin coin school assembly hall yesterday attempted to arise. from their chairs, after having watched Willie and Mary and Sadie perform, some of them couldn't get up. Others could, but accompanying their rise was a disconcerted noise such as accompa- nies the separation of two sheets of hypaper.
 The varnish on the seats, it is a1- legged by Commissioner A. w. Bell, is poor, and this caused the unpleasant ness. @
 The board of education is holding up a bill of $8,OO from the Ameri- can Seating Go. It is Nalleged some of the seats they have placed in the schools are breaking at the seams and cracking in other places. The bill will not be paid until substitu- tfons are made by the company.

'~The Spoilers is 8 thrilling, powerful and picturesque story of the Alaskan gold fields It fairly brist1es with thrilling scenes, while whole for tune was spent on some of the scenes in the quest for realism.
 Some of these "tbig scenes'' are: The wreck at sea of an ocean liner and the. consequent thrilling rescues; the dynanftfng of a gold mine shaft; the w1airl ofthe greax northern dance hall; the. finish fight with bare fists between powerful m4ners; the spec tacuIar street riots

POLICE TO STOP SABBATH LABOR,
 AT HIGH SCHOOL
Board of Education Names Committee to End Al
 legged Noises.

Sunday work on the construction of the Bridgeport High school will probably be stopped. At the meeting of the board of education last even ing, several members were strongly in favor of notifying the contractors to cease their Sabbath activities.
 It was urged by other members that the police ought to attend to the matter. A motion that the matter be left to the board was adopted and la ter rescinded. Then a committee consisting of President Elmer H. Ha- vens, John Cu1linan and A. w. Bell was appointed to consult with the po- lice.
 MT. CuIlinan and MT. Bell were appointed because both expressed the opinion that nothing would be done by the police if either made a com p1aint. It was to test this belief, that the committee was organized with the foregoing personnel.
