lover the Top'' Opens at the Shubert
 Theatre.

"Over the Top" production resem- bling in many respects a, Winter Gar den Show is having its premier al the Shubert theatre in New Haven all this week. The show is a combina- tion of good singing and dancing teams, a lot of beautiful costumes and a number of scenes. It is a little early to render a. verdict on the show as there are many rough spots to be smoothed out, undoubtedly when il reaches the A 4th street theatre it will have attained more speed, as will be necessary in order to become a. hit T. Roy Barnes, who was well known to all of us in Katinka, was really funny but did not have enough ma terial to work with, in fact, the show is shy of male principals, seeming to rely on pretty girls and countless changes of costumes in which the col or scheme has been worked out very artistically. Joe Laurie and Aleen Bronson shone as the real mirth pro- vokers of the show while the danc- ing of Adele and Fred Astafre was the best seen in any show for long time. Rolandos Neo-Classical dancers were seen in two excellent numbers and the Oakland sisters put across sever al good numbers.

EAGLES PARADE.


 The biggest parade, reception ana honor ever accorded by the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Aerie No. APO, is to be presented in this city on Tuesday next when Carl G. Winter, grand worthy president, F. O. E., arrives } in this city on his tour throughout the United States after being elected to his high office directly from the ranks of the Eagles.
 Because of his master mind which conceived the present system or financing the Eagles benefit funds, that has given Bridgeport many thousands of dollars in the homes or widows, orphans and where sickness has prevailed, President WinSer the first Eagle to be elected to the highest office from the floor of a convention, will be given a grand ovation here.
 The parade will be led by a rnifi- taHy band of 30 people, and will fn- clude high officials from the state and all members and officers of the local lodge. There will be visiting officials from New Haven, Hartford and waterbury.
