N. T. llnrald Weather Forecasts.

A large anti-cyclone now controls the
weather over almost the entire country.
Buta depression exists in the Wmtern
Gulf of Mexico. This depression will
probably move enstwardly to day, devel-
op considerable energy and advance
northeastwardly tonight. The chief
minimum reported was 18 degrees, at
Northfield, \'t.; the chief maximum, 72,
at Key West. In this district to-day
warmer, fair weather will probably pre-
vail, with fresh and light, variable winds,
mostly northerly and northeastcriy. in
' the Middle States and New England fair,
warmer weather will prevail with fresh
northerly and northwesterly winds, be-
coming variable, and followed by cloud-
inessin the southern parts of this sec-
tion. On Sunday in this section and in
New England, fair to partly cloudy
weather will probably prevail with slight
thermal changes and fresh, variable
winds, mostly northeastsrly and easter-
ly, followed by cloudiness and rain in
this section, except near the lakes. The
outlook for Monday in these areas is
partly cloudy weather, with slight ther-

\l but Is to be Done In South Norwalk,—A
Movement to Form an Association.

As we stated in yesterday‘s paper,
South Nor-vslk will have a good base
ball team this season, but it is evident
that steps should be taken at once to
procure first-class players. .tlood men
are waiting to sign with the Norwalks
they being certain that this is the best
base ball town in the State.

It is proposed to form an amociation
and as several have signified their will-
ingness and desire to take stock in such
a movement, a paper having that object
in view will be circulated the first part
of next week.

Early action in signing players will be
appreciated by the lovers of the national
game. A delay in this respect may de-
prive us of some of the excellent men
who are anxious to come here. It is
therefore hoped that the men who solicit
stpck for the auociation will receive a
hearty welcome from those who profess
to be enthusiastic for a ball team in
South Norwalk.

Ilaa'l Bully.

Those who enjoy a good laugh should
not fail to see this comedlau,who appears
with his company of artists at Music
Hall this evening. The Baltimore Amer-
ican says: The rcgulpr season at Ford's
Opera Rouse was opened last night. Mr.
llan’l Sully's “Corner Grocsry" establish-
ment kept the audience in constant
laughter for three hours. Mr. Sully. as
Michael Nolan, the upright man, with a
rudimentary education, got more fun
out of a telephone than Is usually obtain-
cd from a whole comedy. Master Mal-
vey, a bad boy, somewhat like l‘rck‘s.
but not so tiresome, excited tremendous
enthusiasm among the boys, and all his
acts were vociferously sncored. The
singing incidental to the play was very
good, and was well received. Mr. Mn
Farland. as One of the Finest, was im-
mensely gotten up, and looked as if he
might have been one of the timely party
whose remains had just been exhumed.
Miss Louise A. Fox, as an emotional
young lady of high culture and princi-
ples, interpreted her role very satisfac-
torily. Mrs. Nelson Kncass, who ap-
peared as Nolan’s wife, was perfect.

Apollo Glee and Bano Club.

Last evening, at Music Hall, the Yale
Apollo Glen and Banjo Club, gave one of
their musical entertainments. The pro-
gram passcd off fairly well, consisted of
vocal and whistling solos, warbling, etc,
interspersed by selections by the banjo
club. One of the most interesting and
pleasing features was the exhibition of
lightning oil painting by Prof. \V. II.
Hamilton. The picture is a marvel of
art and skill, considering that btlt four
minutes were consumed in painting it.
It will be framed and put on exhibition
in Hoyt's drug store.

 

Although Mr. Shes needs no introduc-
tion to the theatre-goers of Norwalk, we
are pleased to be able to give above an
excellent portrait of this eminent young
actor, who will appear as the leading
man in Adams and Cook's Dramatic
company that appears every night at the
Opera House next week. It will be the
dramatic event of the season. We are
also pleased to note that Mr. Shea brings
to Norwslk the famous play "Monte
Cristo.” [is has made for himself a
grand reputation by his masterly assump-
tion of these most ditllcult characters.
The press of other cities is unanimous in
its praise. and Mr. Shea is considered
equal to James O'Neil, who has playcd
this wonderful drama in New York city
for one hundred nights, and is now play-
ing it with great success throughout the
country. Mr. Shea’s repertoire includes
both the grave and the gay, including
such characters as “Dr. Jekyll and Mr.
Hyde,” with wondrous success and the
next night to be seen in comedy with
equal success. He is a wonderful actor,
and we look forward to his engagement
with a great deal of pleasure. Until this
season the company has been known as
Atkinson & Cook's. Mr. Justin Adams,
the comedian, well known to Norwalk,
has purchased Mr. Atkinson‘s interest in
the company hence tbs nams' Adams 4:
Cook. Mr. Adams, being an actor, has
used the judgment of his experience in
the selection of the company, and it now
stands the best company playing at pop-
ular prices. Mr. Edward Varney is the
manager of the comma]. and no doubt
but what Ed will make a new host of
friends here next week. '

One of the most important dramatic
events of the season will occur at the
Music Hall Thursday night, when the
great tragedian, Mr. Thos. W. Keene,
will be seen as Shylock in Shakespeare's
"Merchant of Venice.” Of this perform-
ance the Philadelphia Times says:—
“Thomas W. Keene appeared as Shylock
in ‘Ths Merchant of Venice’ at the
Academy of Music last night. His im-
personation is classed among the best in
his repertoire. The idea that Mr. Keene
is an actor of the excessively vigorous
and robustious school is a mistake. He
is subdued in his methods and plays with
calmness and discretion. He thus has
voice and physical power to make his
points, when the time comes for them.
with tremendous energy. Ilia support
last night was altogether good, and the
performance gave satisfaction through-
out."
‘ Harvard Dials Quartet“.

The Harvard Male Quartstts gave such
apopulsr concert when hays last fall.
that the simple announcement of their
concert at the P. M. C. A. ball, on Wed-
nesday March 27th, ought to call out a
large audience.

Made Necessary to Most Expenses and
Pay Dividends.

Telephone subscribers are interested in
the statement made at a meeting of the
stockholders of the Southern New Eng-
land Telephone company Thursday, that
it was proposed to make a considerable
increase in the telephone charges. The
meeting was held in the new building
on Court street New Haven to take act-
ion on proposed amendment to the char-
tsr allowing the company to put wires
under ground. The stockholders present
representing 9,197 shares, voted unani-
mously for the amendment.

President Tyler then submitted the re-
port of the directors, which explained
why no dividends had been paid since
July, 1393. Much money had been spent
in improvements and for repairs conse-
quent upon the blizzard of a year ago,
the total outlay being $200,000. Long
distance circuits, improved copper wires
and new transmitters had been provided.
To meet the expenditure, the company's
mrnings had been used. The usual divi-
dends had been six per cent, to stock-
holders and three per cent, to the Bell
Telephone company. The latter com-
pany had agreed to contribute 823,000
toward improvements. The sum of
083,000 would be needed the coming
year for improvements. No dividends
would be paid before April 1890. An
advance in the telephone rates would be
nscsmry to bring the revenue up to the
point to pay the usual dividend. Mr.
Tyler said the advance in rates would be
from forty to sixty per cent, in the pre-
sent. He anticipated strong objections
and for a time there would probably be
a war between the subscribers and the
company. The ultimate result, however
would be advantageous and satisfactory
to the stockholders.

An official of the Southern New Eng-
land Telephcus company said last night
that there would be no immediate ad-
vance in telephone rates. The intention
was to substitute metallic circuits for
thoss now in around thereby afford a
better telephone service. To do this
would probably take three 0r four years.

 

Then there might be an increase in prices-

but not in a greater proportion than the
improvement of the service. "There
will be no radical increase in rates on
the present service such as has been
noissd about," he added, "and there is
no occasion for subscribers lying awake
nights thinking about it.”

United after 25 Years.

Two baby girls, born in Bethe],
twenty-five years ago, were separated in
early childhood and adopted, one by
people in Bethsl and the other by a lady
in Reading. Each grow up in ignor-
ance of the other‘s existence, but recent-
ly one was told that she had a sister, and
the result was a happy reunion. The
most peculiar part of the affair is that
one of the sisters is already married to a
J. 11, Wheeler of Bethel. and the other
is to marry a J. H. Wheeler of Reading
at Easter.

Stopping a Wrote-had Habit.

New York has a veritable anti-cough or
cough-preventing school, and it is at-
tended by large numbers of coughers,
business men and profemional men. The
teacher stands them up in a row, makes
them brace back their shoulders and
hold up their chins and dra'w in their
abdomens. Then they are told to sing
“Home." They are compelled to sing or
squeak it , out, and are forbidden to
cough. This is gone through with three
times a week, and the result is some-
thing wonderful. They do st0p hacking
at their throats. The good affects seem
to be in part secured by rational exercise
of the throat, and in part by training the
will to work against the habit of scour-
ing the throat.

United States and Canada now number

last twelve months, and of 7,882 in ten
years.
