ANNOUNCEMENTS
DAVIS THEATRE.

If we may judge by the enthusissm displayed by the large audience which witnessed the initial booking of the six standard vaudeville acts furnished by fhs Faliy Markus Booking agency Of New York, we may rest assured that we ars to see some real vaudeville in Norwich. The marvellous acrObatic sensation pre- scented by the Four Clancellors was a revelation to the most blase theatregoer. To attempt to describe the wonderful feats performed by this act Is beyond ths power of any individual. IL can only bg said that they begin where all other ac- robatic acts finish Cody and King pre- sent one of the neatest dancing acts ever seen in Norwich in years. Jeanetts Keane. with her wonderful voice, easily won the hearts Of the audience. Ryan and Moore in a comedy. singing offering captured their share of the zppizuse. Ara Smith. who is billed as the society enter- tainer easily proved himself a mono- loguist of no mean ability and a performs CT who certainly understands the art ot putting his material over in an u1der- standable manner. Clifton and Kramer offer a clever character comedy skft iu which pretty female drumer and a cou- ical Swede merchant furnish an abun- dance of laughter and funny situationE- On the silver screen was seen Casrlis Chaplin's latest comedy. Pay Day. which many think is the funniest film this f4,= nous star has ever made.
 The Charles Ray fans came 10 life yes< terday and crowded the Davis theatre. where that stars latest picture, A 1fld- night Bell. opened for a run of thrss days.
 Judging from the numbers who saw the picture at the frst performances. . Rays following is growing with amazing rapidity. and they represent all zgesg sexes and walks of life.
 This First National attraction is ous of the best things that Ray has done. and t demonstrates his versatility. The story Is based on the famous CharIeg Hoy1 stage play and lends Itself perfectly t1 picturization.
 The audience sat spelIbound during Ina showing of the film. and there were many, gasps as the star went through his uEuaI dangerous performances. in which hs shows little regard for his skin
 Don't forget to order your reserved seats early. This Is the only theatre in southern New England where this seT- vice Is extended 70 vaudeville and picture patrons.

 Much nervousness among wheat thad- CTS was shown In the early part of the session. opinion being sharply divided for awhile as to whether the extraor- dinary jump in prices on Saturday would be followed by still greater rise or whether a reaction would ensue, Fossil bility of a huge shortage of wheat here throughout the approaching period for the settlement of May contracts re mained an acute problem, especially for dealers who have been selling wheat on a large scale of late, expecting to Ob- tain the grain at lower prices when nneded. It soon became evident, how ever, that price upturns nc greater than are witnessed almost daily would for the time being induce holders to let go of plenty of wheat to supply all inme- diate wants,
 Holiday slowness of export demand counted somewhat as a factor in easing the strain on the wheat market, partic- ular,y near the end of the day. Talk
 of curtailment of purchasing for do- mestic millers and of lack of inquiry for four tended further to bring about de- clines at the last. A good sized decrease in the United States visible supply was announced, but the effect on the market here was more or less offset by some additions to wheat in store here and by shipments to Chicago dn prospect al Omaha and elsewhere.
 Corn and oats were ruled by the ac tion of wheat. Adverse weather condl,
 tions were of insufficient influence to up hold prices,
 Provisions averaged a little higher il !. line with the hog market.
