MISS TELL IN LEAD
 IN "SQUAB FARM''

Miss Alma Tell, who is appearing in the leading feminine role in the Messrs. Lee and J. J. Shubert pro- duction of Frederic and Fanny Hat toms new comedy, 'The Squab Farm" is one of the most promising young actresses of the present day. AL though born in New York, Miss Tell was educated with her sister, Olive, in London. She spent several years in the big European capital, and later lived on Castle Strange, her grand fathers estate in Ireland, just a few miles from the bustIing city of Dub lin. There's a wee touch of her Irish ancestry on her roguish lips and a sparkle "O' dear ould Ireland' in her laughing eyes.
 The Messrs. Shubert will present ''The Squab Farm" at Parsons theater for three days, beginning Thursday. There will be a matinee Saturday.

LAST SHOWING OF
 THE MANX-MAN'

New Britain will have it's last op- portunities to witness the stupendous- ly spectacular motion picture produc- ton, The Manx Man, this afternoon and evening at the Lyceum and the best vaudeville bill the Lyceum has had since the new schedule went into effect is also presented for the last time. Monday and Tuesday brought huge crowds and favorable comment was heard on all sides.
 "The ManX Man." after being heralded as a picture rep1ete with un- usual features, lived up to it's repu- tation and went even a few steps far ther. Excellent photograph was secured. and the story was presented in a manner that brought out it's fine points. Hall Caine, when he wrote the navel, "The Manx Man" turned out his greatest work. When the story is given to the world through the med ium of the film. it's greatness is en- chanced and the work of Caine reaches a newer and greater eN- cellnce.
 In the vaudeville line, Princess Maroslava and her Serbian musicians present a good headline offering. En- cores were called for at each per 1ormance, so we'll did the original numbers go over. The princess pos sesses an excellent singing voice and her company of musicians present some appropriate rag melodies in tersperSed with selections of the home land. The act is admitted one of the best musical acts of it's class that has played the city in a long time.
 "Noodles'' Fagan's trio, composed of Noodles himself, an old-time vaude- vile artists, his wife and their small daughter, who proves to be an artist of quite some class despite her youth. She is but six year of age, having observed her birthday Monday of this week but nevertheless gives an ex- hlbltion of Doraldina, the Hawaiian dancer, in a way that brought down the house. The bill ends today, and is worth seeing.
 Thursday, Friday and Saturday will bring a change of bill, the new pie ture being Olive Thomas in 'Indiscreet Corinne", and the vaudeville includ- ing Burns & Jose, @ man and woman presenting a novelty dancing offer, Hazel Muller & company in a singing and piano offering, and "The Four Slickers'', two men and two women in a comedy variety offering with
 special scenecy. Miss Thomas who scored instantaneous and lasting suc- cess on the stage has been stolen by the pictures and is given a good vehicle. Miss Thomas will delight her host of friends in this picture and the acts promises to keep up the record set by the acts this week.
 The new Lyceum orchestra which started it's engagement here Sunday is proVelng a, valuable asset and the public appreciates it, to judge by remarks being passed during the per- fornanceS.

 His whole manner tended to re- 1ieve the positive fear of him with which I had approached the task Lil- lian had set me, the task of winning his confidence and ascertaining if pos sible just what was his connection and that of Grace Draper's with our country's enemies.
