 Denver. May 15.-Denvers' new slogan, "5OO, 900 population by l9So' was given added impetus by the re- cent special session of the Coioraoo I,eeisiature when, that body enacted the Moffat Tunnel bill, and it is be- lieved by promipent Denver business men that the half million goal will be reached within decade
 The tunnel bill provides for the creation of a bonding district, 1n- cluding all of Denver and portions of Routt, Moffat, Grand, R1o 6IAhco and Boulder for the construction oL a tunnel through James Peak. fhty miles west of Denver on the Denver X Salt Lake railroad ,,

 With the completion of the tunnel, which has been a dream or Coioraoo piopeers for half a century, vast en9nire of mineral and agricultural Isnds will be opened up on the west ern Colorado slope Of the ROCKY Mountains. with Denver as the huo of commercial activities.
 It is also expected that the direct rail route from Denver to the west coast resulting from construction or the tunnel will be followed oy tnS routing through this city or nucn passenger and freight trafhc that al present goes via northern and south ern route from the east to north western and Pacific territory.
 With an unprecedented increase m home building in the city this SprlnS' extensive road construction through out the state and the tourist season approaching, renewed prosperlly looms for Denver-The Gateway ot the Rockies bv the International News Service al the Denver Tourist Bureau plans are being made to entertain more NlSl- tors to the Denver mountain parks this wear than ever before In 1871, it is estimated. 6oO,oo0 visitors view ed the scenic beauties of the 5,Ooo acres of Denver's park system.
 An indication of how the tourist +rsde- has developed in Denver and GoIorado is shown in the statement that ss5.oOo.ooo was spent by tour ists in the state in 1921 The gold production in the Centennial State for that period amounted to only S6,- 7So000.

In The Theatres
POLT,S,

POLES.
 The entire story of tsThe Sheik' s Wife. which is being shown at Polf s theater, is told with true artistic feel ing. There is no villain in the hack neyed sense of the word. The psychology of the sheik who loves his wife with an ancient ferceness and who tries to demonate her in true Oriental fashion, Is ympathetically set forth. The character of the TO- mantle and high-spirited girl Is also ski11fu11y etched.
 Many of the scenes are spectacular in the extreme. TAe dashlng man. euvering of the native cavalry Is most colorful. There are interesting scenes in the luxurious interiors of the tent harems, views showing the Arab ad- ministraion of justice and the hero ines rendezvous amid the runs of an ancient temple. The fight betw ee the Spahis and the tribesmen reflect .. comparable action and beauty.
 The Sheik's Wife, also at Poli' S Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. will be part of a program headed by Bert FItzgibbon, the original daffydil1, and the niftiest nut comedian in vaude- vile today. With his brother Lew, almost as cuckcoo as he is, he will just naturally make you laugh for a solid 20 minutes of fun.
 Other acts will include Lawton, a juggIer with new ideas; Saxton and Farrell, in -'trhe Elopers'; Claude and Marion, Still Arguing; and the Rob- bins Family, big and little funsters and the cleverest family act in vaude- vile today.

formance, the Park Players win rest up today preparatory to the opening of the stock season at the Park the ater tonight, when the Imaginable comedy success, "Honors Are Even.' will be the vehicle with which they will be introduced to Bridgeport's plea eaSure-seekers.
 The entire company has worked faithfully every afternoon and even ing during the past week and Dt- rector Frank Bond. who will also be seen in the leading role. is satisfied that their work has reached a point of perfection acquired only by hard work. With every man and woman in the company thoroughly conver- sant with the role they are to play, every word and action having been gone over with more than the usual pains, there is little doubt as to the result of the venture.
 In the words of Mir. Bond, the ven ture is not being launched for the purpose of financial recompense. but to introduce some of New York's best artists. and incidentally give Bridge port something entirely different in the way of plays and high class pro- auctions. Only the best will be brought to this city and nothing will be shown on the Park stage unless it first Is approved by MT. Bond.

ALL THE CIRCUSES
 ARE PASSING BRIDGEPORT

Today Is circus day in Stamford. The Walter A. Main show is the at- tractton. The show plays Ansonia, Tuesday; Torrindton, "Wednesday; Bristor. Thursday. Meriden, Friday; and New Britain Saturday.
 This would indicate that the great est show on earth, which plays Stam- ford and Meriden some seasons on the New England trip, was to pass up these two cities this year. The big show is in Washington the first three days of this week, and in Baltimo ore the last three. It will mark the~first engagement in Washington of more than two days. Incidentally a large block of seats is reserved tonight for the official family, and the going to the circus of the President and his gang Is always an attraction is the capital.
 Tho rumor sttn persists that Bridge port and Waterbury and perhaps New Haven, will not be visited this year by Bridgeport's own circus.

Caselotti was the organist He dis covered an unusual voice and a charming personality in the little girl who after six months acquaintance became his bride. Since that time, Mime. Caselotti has lived in music and was a real companion to her talented husband The result of the work of the couple can easily be seen from the triumph which met her singing.
 Her voice has been compared by New York critics to Mime. Tetrazzini's, as she is the only co1oratura who pos sesseS a flouriShing voice combin d with power and warmth. Strange enough Mme. Tetrazzini was the first grand opera singer Mme. Caselotti heard and shortly after the local woman's debut, the two were intro duced by Mario Sammarco, who was singing with Tetrazzini and who is a friend of Maestro CaSelott. Mme. Caselotti has extended her repertory to five operas and hopes to have mas tered a dozen before going to Europe.
