THE HYPERION.

Never since dramatic stock has been
 played at the Hyperion has there been
 such notable play and cast with added
 features booked for a weeks engage ment as is "Lombardi Ltd", which
 comes Monday for a weeks engage ment. Leo Cari1lo starred in this novel play for several seasons and it created furore both in New York and on the road. Incidentally "'Lambardi Ltd" was first produced on the coats by Oliver Morosco and the star who created the role originally was not Leo Cari11o but Malcolm Fassett, the stardom of Car illo beginning later. When MT. Poli decided to produce 'Lombardi Ltd" here he knew that the leading role was one that was beyond the facility, yer satility and ability of the average tsock leading man and he set about to engage MT. Fassett for one week securing his release from MT. Morosco mostly on the basis of friendship. Frederic and Fanny Hatton wrote 'Lombardi Ltd" and in writing 1t they brought to the stage an entirely new character-that of fashionable dressmaker, Tito Lom- bardi, who might be composite pic ture of several of Americas foremost creators of smart fashions Tito Lom- bardi is a genius in the matter of gor- geous gowns, but has absolutely no ideas of business and proves somewhat of an amateur in the art of making love. His time Is entirely taken up with two subje clothes and show girl, with whom he is in love. Much of the action taking place in nodiste's shop gives opportunity for several models and mannequins to exhibit smart gowns and there will be local touch here for the gowns, millinery and footwear to be shown comes from New Haven's most exclusive shops. Then, too, the models with the exception of Shirley Grey, one of the most beautiful and most stunning models from Lucilles will be New Haven girls surprisingly beautiful and of perfect figure. Ninita Bristow and the other favorites will give sp1erl- did support to MT. Fassett and the en- tire production will measure up in every way to the original with the exception that the admission prces will be, of course, less than half what was previ- ous1y charged for "Lombardi Ltd"'. All seats are selling and the advance sale already indicates the banner houses of all season.
 This Sunday night Manager Menges will offer Y feel program of selected pictures with stars and stories of the kind that picture lovers most want to see.

 In "The Great Shadow" there are several big moments that carry real thrills. One of them, where an auto mobile, loaded with men, IS driven over an embankment, carrying its occupants with it, rolling to the bottom Of a ravine and catching fire, is hair raising.
 The second big feature is Mary Miles Minter in Eyes of the Heart" " a powerful picture adapted from the play, Blindness" Miss Minter assumes the part of Laura, little girl who has been blind from birth To shield her from the ugly truth that their home was poor and sordid and they them selves. thieves and pickpockets, they lovingly deceived her. Then sight was given to her bewildered eyes. And all her faith i'll life and love and goodness were shattered.
 Still another feature is the 10th episode of "The Vanishing Dagger" starring Eddie Polo. This exciting serial is fast drawing to close as there are only IS episodes.

VELVET IN FAVOR
Material to Be Popular in Fall and
 Winter Garments.
Fabric Needs No Adornment or Addi- tionaI Trimming to Make it
 Beautiful.

Velvet is the most subtly becoming of all soft fabrics that are used for wOmen's clothes and there is promise that the coming fall and winter sea son will see this material used in great abundance, notes a fashion writer. For draping there is nothing more lovely, and since draping is an- nounced as being one of the salient characteristics of the newer styles then it stands to reason that this material will have a unique place among the styles. In velvet, too, there are so many lovely and becoming col ors from which to choose It offers a variety that can hardly be equaled by any other fabric.
 Velvet for afternoon gowns has been shown much favor in the past and undoubtedly 1t will be the mate rial de luxe for frocks of this sort this season. Here again the material is so very popular because it needs no adornment, no additional trimming to make 1t beautiful. In itself it is just right and leaves nothing to be desired. Velvet for smocks is also the last word in fashion. There is something about the quality of it that makes it particularly fitting for this purpose, and the more the smock gains in pop ularity the more velvet seems to be appreciated in this direction
 From the consideration of velvet we pass just naturally into the study of duvetyn and it's allied materials, These soft, woolly. precious materials have seen a great vogue during the last few seasons, and they bid fair to overrun the nation again for the win ter months. A real duvetyn is an all- silk fabric, a fact which is not gen. orally understood by the majority of the buying public. And when it is all silk 1t is the most beautiful fabric in the world, but not the most wearable 1t must be looked after in the most careful way or it will give no service at all, and it is, after all, most highly expensive. In these duvetyn mate rfals the colors of, taupe and gray and brown are the most effective and the smartest by all odds. They are be- coming because of their color tones and because of the depth of their weaves, and if a woman wants a gown that is smart and all around satisfac- tory for dress wear at the same time she cannot do better than purchase one of these weaves. For capes and coats and wraps, either for. evening or daytime wear, they are particular ly good, for in this field they vie with the velvets, which have always been liked for this use

COAL CONTROL. TINTED
 TO END PROFITEERING

New York, Nov 12.-If the coal owners of this country do not stop gouging the public, the government will have to take control, declared United States Senators Calder and Edge in a statement issued in this city. The law makers are members of the senate com mittee on reconstruction. They give notice that S"unless the coal industry reforms itself and cuts prices to a reasonable figure by December 6" bill will be introduced in the senate which will provide for the most stringent regulation of every branch of the busi- ness"
 The senators make the sweeping charge that ''the coal industry as a whole stands se1f-convicted of practic- ing gross extortion on the whole public of the United States.
 With 46,000,000 more tons of coal produced so far in 1920 over the same period of 1919 there is no reason for high prices and coal shortage, it is stated.

The coal industry stands self-con- victed.
 There is general confession on the part of the industry, even though guilty individuals ahve not been iden- tihed. The reformation of these evils IS their own concern primarily.

Some will say that all wage workers wear the tags of the master class. This is another matter and one that, today at least will not discuss. But speak ing about tags, the union 1aborite has a tag of his own-two tags, in fact. l refer to the union card and the union label. He should guard them well, keep them always in sight and impress their importance upon all outside the ranks of organized labor. It's far cry to Babylonian times but civilization has not progressed, during the 4,000 years, unfortunately, beyond the tag wearing era.

According to Professor Keiser the Babylonians had many uses for the tags of clay. And many things were tagged, including the working people. Around the neck of the worker was hung a tag denoting what he was to do and how long he was to be about 1t. At the end of the job the boss o. K.'d the tag and the worker brought 1t to the temple, the employment office of those days. At the temple the tag was filed away and, as 1t happens, preserved for all time. A great many of these tags have been dug up from the ruins of ancient Babylon and thus 1t IS that we are able to see them at Yale's Baby 1onian Seminary These tags, which once hung about the laborer's necks, are a source of valuable reconstructive in formation to scholars.
 Now, then, from 4O00 years ago up to the present Is some considerable time and remarkable changes have taken place in the status of labor. Yet during all these 4,00O years the worker, in one way or another, has been tagged. Pre- sumably the Babylonian worker knew that he was tagged because there, around his neck, was the visible tag. Bpt, since those ancient times, 1aborers have worn tags invisible to the eye. The tags were there but the workers wouldn't admit it. The black man was tagged in slavery days and the white man has been tagged all days. Tagged and classified by the bosses of big busi- ness, by the politicians, by the money power and what not.
 The labor union came into being slowly and painfully, and organized labor has succeeded in freeing itself largely from the tag of oppression and teh class label. Not entirely so how
