STOCK PRICES ADVANCE
AFTER DULL OPENING
Eight Per Cent Money Big Factor
in Improvement of the
Market.

By Associated Press to Every Evening
New York (Wall Street, 1890 n m.),
Jan. l6.-Sentimont among traders was
decidedly bearish at the opening of to-
days stock market, despite yesterdays
easier money tendencies and the failure of
higher interest ard discount rates to ma
terialize.
Pressure against several of yesterdays
weakest features was renewed, Middle
States oil adding 6 points to its recent
precipitate reversal. Other oils were heary
with motors, shippings and several of the
steels and equipments.
Tobaccos and metals alone manifested
moderate firmness.
Noon-The rapid rebound of MANY
stocks within the first hour, including
those of more speculative character,
indicated that much of the early reaction
was again due to the aggressive tactics OF
the shorts
Calling Of loans by the banks also con-
tributed TO the general setback at the
opening.
On the recovery the market became
dull but additional changes were mostly
at higher levels The opening rate of &
per cent for call loans was probably a
factor in the further improvement at

FRED STONE COMES TO NEW
 HAVEN SHUBEFsT THEATRE

Crowded with fun and color and music and spectacle-a fast-moving whirIwind of joy and surprises-this O'Lantern," in which Charles DiI1ing- ham sends Fred Stone, Americas S greatest entertainer, to the Shubert theatre, New Haven, for one week, beginning Monday. For a. solid year in New York this entertainment de lighted the hearts of the people of Manhattan and their many visitors. Twent,y-three weeks in Boston and twenty-four weeks in Chicago and a season in all the other large cities brings this production to New Ha,- ven, intact with all the effects that went to make it such a sensational success Stone has never appeared to better advantage and he has rais- ed clowning to the altitude of the fine arts In this extravaganza, as has been his custom in the previous ones he has a. new feat of daring ana SkilIice skating. For thlS scene, which is given in a. fine reproduction of the skating at St. Moritz, a. car load of machinery was sent on in advance and established in the Shu- bert theatre so that a pond of real ice might be frozen. Fred Stone gives a burlesque of the famous Charlotte of Hippodrome fame, but he has put in feats of his own that are beyond anything ever attempted by anyone else. Katie Smith, a graceful skater from the continent,
 adds a few moments of poetry-of- motion skating that are a delight.

EMPIRE

What is a movie villain like off the screen? That is probably what several persons in last nights audience at the Empire theatre where t"The Tree of Knowledge opened a three days run, were thinking while they watched beautiful Kathlyn Williams cause the ruin of two men and then saw suave Irving Cummings come along and out villain the villainess
 If you shivered as you conjured up what an interruptions woman like Miss Williams could do to your own happy home, you should see this ta1- enned actress off the screen. Her home in Hollywood, where her pictures are made, is a model of good taste and culture She is an accomplished pianist and is the sweetest tempered, most generous persons at the big Las ky studio.
 As for Irving Cummings-he leaves the studio every evening when work for the day is over and journeys straight home to his wife and pretty children.

AGUINALDO IS
 STILL POPULAR
 IN PHILIPPINES

Manila, April 16.-General Emilio Agninaldo, who fought for the in- dependence of the Philippines and was captured by General Funston, still holds a. strong place in the affec- tons of the Filipino people, This was demonstrated when he left the hos pital the other day to pay a, visit to from Manila
 Aguinaldo has been in the hospital recovering from an operation for appen dicitis but was permitted to go to his home to celebrate his 51st birthday.
 Accompanied by his physician and
 a nurse, he made the 5O-mile trip by
 automobile. Although his visit was
 not announced in advance, the news
 of his coming spread and the people of the villages along the way gather ed at the roadside and the children
 threw flowers into his automobile. At one village the children waved American and Filipino flags and sang "Aguina1do's March. At his home he was met by nearly all the vi11ag- CTS headed by a band and speakers gave him welcome. After spending a night at the farm he returned to the hospital.

One hundred people surround the versatile star and among them are many favorites. The Six Brown brothers and their saxophone clown band are an institution in themselves, and those who remember 'tChin C7s4u~ will recall little Violet ZeA, his a,rohat3e dancing partner.

POdES

That's a wonderful picture a Bridgeport reporter who had seen '-The Silver Horde at a. New Bh- ven theatre, told a companion Satnr- day night It's trueI tThe Silver Horde,'' will be remembered by many who read Rex Bearh's book at tre time it first made it's appearance from the press
 The screen production is even more remarkable, for under the di- rect supervision of Rex Beach, and in his own beloved land of the North, portrayal of the original char acters has been possible so that 1t may be visua1ized in motion by persons in all parts of the globe.
 The very contrast of localities, to- getner with the intense action, TO- nance and mystery of the place, give it a flavor which is impossible e to attribute fto most photoplays.
 Another fine treat for Monday theatregoers is Mabel Berra, the fa- vorite comic opera prima donna who appears in person, accompanied by the best of vaudeville and oper- atic pianists, Harry Newman In this combination of talent there is no mistaking the quality of the act which must be presented
 Frear, Baggett and F'rear, renown- ed trio of fun-makers, appear in their. latest oddity.
