Very few amateur performers would
undertake to givea comedy of such a
character as W. S. Gilbert's "Engaged,"
owing to the dihgeut work that it would
require. But it was pft‘tii'lllell last even-
ing at Music Hall by 'a South Norwslk
cast and, considering the short time in
which they had to rehearse, they did re-
markably well. It would be useless to
tell our readers that the company acted as
professionals, and it would be an injus-
tice to the cast to criticize them as such.
There was a large audience and previ~
one to the rising of the curtain the May-
Burritt banjo club diacoureed some fine

ed several popular airs.
The plot of “Eognged' is so well
known to the theatre going public. that
Wt' will not attempt to give a synopsis of
the play.
Mrs. George F. Athertou impersonated
the character of "Belinda TrI-llerne," a
most unhappy woman. Her love for the
opposite sex was intense but before she
consented to marriage,art understanding
of lll'l' lover‘s pecuniary condition was
required. Every move she made in her
life terminated in unhappiness. Mrs.

and hand of Cheviot Hill, agreed with
everything he said before marriage, but
assured her father that things would be
reversed after marriage. She was pasv

her designs failed. The part was well
adapted to Mrs. Frisby and she did ad-
mirably. She always does well and
much of the success of the performance
can be attributed to her zeal and hard
work.

The anniversary of the birth of George
Wmhlngtort, which will be celebrated
Morrow with nastiness, balls. socral
gatherings and patriotic speeches
throughout the country, suggests the
query what George would do if, after
having been dead one hundred and fifty-
six years, he could be permitted to spend
a day in the country which has seen pro-
per to endear him with the faterrtal term
of father. We frankly admit that we
haven‘t the remotsst idea ltow he would
act when be viewed with awe the wou-
derful development of our country’s ro-

some of our readers were asked for their
opinions, answers would be given only
stantlally as follows:

other cities with a fine opinion of their
streets and sidewalks he would drop dead
when he gazed upon South Norwalk's
thoroughfares. if he survived the shock
a short ride over our cobble stories would
materially aid digestion in cuts George
was troubled with dyspepsia.
Howard Holmes.—He might ride to
the borough in a street car if he had
plenty of time to wait at the switches.
After iakingone ride he would read with
derision that the company's only desire
was to please the public.
Fritz Trivium—He would go into the
newspaper business at once. The first
day's experience at the profession in
looking over spring poetry and perusing
manuscripts, would can-Is him to relin-
quish hold on life and hastily retire to
the place from whence he came.
John Cavanagh.—He would try to

stormy day.

The Argument” for tho llousatonic
[From The Bridgeport Newsl
The llousatouic road asks for power to
does virtually l route a parallel road? Up-
poaitlon and competition are always
healthy in business. More damage has
been done by monopoly than by tooelose
competition. Bridgeport people have
seen the evil and good effect» of monop-
oly and competition in the steamboat
business. Another railroad might be
equally beneficial. Willi two roads bid-
ding for business there would be conces—
sions advantageous to the business and
traveling public. The fact that the Con-
solidated road isdoing pretty well by the
public has nothing to do with the subject
under discussion. It ought to do well
by the people of Conuchticut. They gave
it its franchise and it Is bound to give...
good service in return. Because it does
this Is no reason why other railroads
should not have tilufll privileges at the
hands of the state. The argument that
outside people are financially interested
in the Housatonic is not worth consider-
ing. Tito laws of Connecticut apply to
all alike no matter where they come from.
The stock of the Consolidated is not all
owned l‘l this state. The Housatonic
has as much right to issue bonds and sell
them as the Consolidated. If it is (I crimo

other. These are some of the reasons
why the petition of the llousatonic road
should be granted. There are many

ly do otherwise than to treat the petition

The celi'JSétIé'Ju'uI-ul.‘
The annual statement of the Connec-
ticut Mutual Life Insurance Company
appears elsewhere this morning and also
l’resrdtnt Greene's annual report. Both
are annually of great interest to a very
largo number of people, and this year,
since the talk that has been maliciously
created about the Indianapolis defalcs-
tion, the interest is, of course, greater
than ever.
It will pay togivu close attention to
both papers. The company has $57, 460, 4
0.19 of gross assets and a surplus by the
most rigid legal standard of $5, 565, 680.
There are 68,060 policies outstanding, in-
suring $151,301,013. It took in from
policy holders last year $4,436,285 Ind
paid out to policy holders $5,385,348,
and still added three quarters of a nail-
Iion to Its net assets. Its own standard
of "serve, voluntarily adopted for its
recent business, is more strict than that
of any other company, and yet, by that,
it has a net surplus of $5,214,710. It is
strength and security- itself, and the
jealousy and envy that its conservative
and independent course in insurance has
created are suggested by the efforts that
have been made to magnify and distort
the recent atl'air in ludranapolis.
President Greene's report is naturally
of more interest than the more figures of
the. year and is alike commendable for
Its clearness and its dignity of tone, in
spite of the natural provocation to run to
self defense. Here is the company with
ill figures. The loss has all been marked
off: the detailed story of it will he fur-
nished to whoever desires it. The busi-
ness of insurance is being done on a basis
of safety, and not for the sake of telling
of it, and the company is steadily grow-
ing strong as it grows great. Its assets
are solid and productive and its surplus
ample. After forty-three years of busi-
ness vt bar it has “med to its policy
holders and what it still holds for them
amounts to $31,591,000 more than what
they have paid in, and the ratio of cost
of management to income is the lowest
of all companies in the country. The
growth and strength and standing of the
company justify the fullest confidence in
the management and justify the man-
agement in a pride in the result of their
work.

Cheviot Hill would marry, but the one
that was rejected he, Belvawney, loved
her dearly.
A. L. Frisby had to make sudden
changes, as he took the characters “Mr.
Symperson" and “Angus Macalister.”
In the former character he had an eye
to business and wanted his daughter
Minnie to marry Cheviot Bill that he
might receive an income of £100 a year.
Assn old man Mr. Frisby did remark-
ably well. The part of "Angus Macal-
later” was also well acted. He was but

gave her up to Cheviot Hill for "twa

The Birmingham Rink.
There has been more trouble at the
Birmingham rink, where a lively quar-
rel over the control of the building was
recently reported. This time it was all
about a polo game and is thus described
by the New Haven Palladium: The polo
team from Bridgeport failed to appear at
the Birmingham rink Saturday night.
The Flyers, however, played with a pick-
ed team and were defeated. After the.
game thfiough element of the crowd
created havoc and smashed everything
available at hand. 8. E. Gessnsr, who
has charge of the rink pending a super-
ior court decision, had left and it was a
half hour before quiet was restored. The
trouble arose because the management
had failed to do as advertised In regard
to the game and had failed to furnish
music for dancing. The crowd demand-
ed return of the money paid for admis-
sion, but could not find the man who
had it.

this, the Housatonic is meeting with
fierce opposition, not from the people,
but from the attorneys of the Cousoli~
dated road. It does not appear that the
people have ever objected to what the
Housatonic asks, and there is no evi-
dence whatever, that they have ever in-
vited the paid lawyers of the Consolidat-
ed to interfere in their behalf. The
whole case is in a nutshell. The Bonsa-
touic claims that it is hampered in its
freight and passenger business because
the Consolidated refuses to be neighborly
and accomodating in its dealingr. For
this reason it is absolutely essential that
the Housatouic should build certain
branches in order to accommodate its
increasing traffic. Its charter ltmtts it
w branches only 10 miles long, while
other roads are permitted to build 30
mile branches. It simply asks to be put
on an even footing with other Con-
necticut railroads. There is nothing un-
fair or unreasonable in this request and
it should be granted. The pleasure or
displeasure of the Consolidated has noth-
lng to do with the base. Even justice to
all' is the only thing to he considered.
The interests of Bridgeport and in fact
all this section of the state, lie with the
Hon-stools road. The branches and can
sections it Is proposed to build will open
