patrolman, who came into headquar

viaduct near the railroad station on

action at the next meeting of the
board. A member of the board said
this morning that these lights were
important. They were installed to
gather a force together in a short time
to answer emergencies which are li
able to arise at any time. Patrolmen
will not be excused ofr failing to re

FOR IT AT KOINE'S
WOMEN WORKING SHORT CHANGE GAME
Attempts to Obtain Extra Change Defeat
ed Whenever Attempted in This Ci'y
Game Too Oli to Catch Local
Dealers.
The short change game is being per
sistently worked in this city and
Bridgeport is not the only locality
which is complaining of the unusual
activity of this class of crooks. The
peculiar feature connected with the
swindle in this city is that women are
reported almost as frequently as men
for having attempted the game. So
far no cases of success on the part of
the swindlers have been reported. Last
Saturda3r night the swindle was at
tempted on two occasions at the Wool
worth Five and Ten Cent Store, on
Main street. Both attempts were
made on the same sales girl. One wo
man gave the girl a one dollar bill
and a few minutes later claimed that
she had tendered a ten dollar bill and
was short nine dollars in her change.
There was only one $10 bill In the cash
register and the manager of the store
found the customer who had presented
it. A few minutes later another wo
man asserted that she had given the
same girl a two dollar bill and had
received change for but one. As no
two dollar hill could be found in the
register it was evident that the wom
an was not sincere in her demand. As
neither carried the matter any further
it is safe to say that both cases were
deliberate attempts to swindle the
store.
Several other instances of claims of
short change have been heard. One
of these happened at the Royal Lunch
room on Tuesday night, when a couple
of well dressed young men came in,
bought some lunch for which they
paid with a dollar bill receiving the
change. In a few minutes they re
turned and asked for another dollar
which they claimed was due them. As
in the former instance no two dollar
bill was found in the register and the
claimants were obliged to be content
with a few threats.
50 OF THE POPULATION
OF THE TJ. S.
live in rural districts remote from phy
sicians or drug stores, and they are
obliged to depend upon proprietary
medicines to a very great extent.
To the women in these homes such
standard remedies as Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound come as a
boon and a blessing. Records show
that it has cured more women of those
dread feminine ills than any other
remedy.

LIQUOR LICENSE
APPLICATIONS
Bills Pertaining to Excise Matters Before
Legislative Committee.
"he excise committee yesterday af
ternoon gave hearings upon three bills
concerning the signers or endorsers of
applicants for a liquor license. One
bill amends the present law so that
signers, while they must be taxpayers
and electors of the community in
which the application is made, need
not necessarily be owners of real es
tate. The second bill provides that
the signers need only be electors in the
town, while the third bill does away
with signers altogether and leaves the
granting of a license wholly to the
county commissioners. The liquor in
terests favored the latter bill, claiming
that under the present system it was
nearly impossible to secure signers and
that oftentimes they had been obliged
to pay a man to endorse an applica
tion. The anti-liquor interests want
ed the law left as it was. saying that
they wanted the applicant backed by
Ave citizens of reputable character.

I THE THEATRES j
POLI'S
Ill bringing the Broadway sensation
the original comic opera, entitled "The
Naked Truth" to Bridgeport next week
Manager Poli offers to his patrons the
acme of vaudeville magnificence and
pretentiousness. It is safe to predict
that "The Naked Truth" will be the
biggest hit of the vaudeville season
here, as It well should me. With a
story irresistible in Its novelty and in
terest, presented by a superb company
including eighteen, and a wealth of
special scenery "The Naked Truth"
stands to-day at the head of the great
spectacular things in the varieties. In
the stellar roles will apnear Phyllis
Rankin, daughter of McKee Rankin
and Harry Davenport a brother of the
famous Fannie Davenport. Mr. Dav
enport assumes the role of Johnny Mc
intosh, of the "King's Scotch High
balls." while Miss Rankin is cast a8
Stella of whom Johnny is much enam
oured. The story has to do with a statue of
the Goddess of Truth and a well en
chanted by the statue. The Goddess
be it known has as might be supposed
a particular aversion for fibbing even
of the "white" variety. Johnny and
Stella sitting on the well curb re
count a series of white fibs such as
lovers are wont to do. Presto! Johnny
loses his kilts. Stella loses her waist.
The braw Johnny is finally put to the
supreme test by his rival Rudolph a
sailor boy and is compelled to state
whether he loves Stella for herself
alone or her money. Johnny the can
ny Scot has had an eye upon Stella's
coin but in mortal fear of loosing his
"breeks" he finally tells the truth and
loses Stella.
The chorus including fifteen Broad
way favorites is caught fibbing when
the charming girls representing de
mure village maidens in Normandy
aver they have never been kissed.
Whisk! The Goddess of Truth gets
busy and the fair maidens have to
scurry behind a tarpaulin to make-up
for the ruthless stripping the Goddess
has: given them. The piece teems with
wholesome and irresistible comedy and
unique aituations. The music is es
pecially arranged, the entire work be
ing from the fertile brain of Edward
A. Paulton. "The Naked Truth"
runs about 35 minutes. It will be the
headllner of headliners at Poli's com
mencing next Monday afternoon.
A strong supporting bill will go with
"The Naked Truth." Among the win
ning numbers will be Wormwood's
Animals said to be the best animal act
in vaudeville; Brown & Navarro, a
clever colored team; O'Brien, Havel &
Co.. offering their icomedy success.
"Ticks and Clicks;" Ua Grannon the
popular singing comedienne; Cunning
ham & Marion talking acrobats; San
sonia & Delila, sensational equilibrists,
and the newest features in motion pic
tures. Chas. B. Evans is ' still a favorite
with Poli's patrons this week head
ing a very good vaudeville bill of
which there are only three more per
formances. SMITH'S

A long engagement in New Tork

politan verdict is pronounced- correct

New York and each other as Chicago,
Washington, Minneapolis. Denver, San
Francisco, Baltimore and Loe Angeles,
the big town may 'be said to have
spoken truly. This is the record of
Charles Rann Kennedy's drama, "The
Servant in the House", in which the
famous original Henry Miller Asso
ciate Players will be seen next Wed
nesday evening. Undoubtedly "The
Servant in the House" is a drama for
all people and all ages; for its truth

At the meeting of the police board

Outside of the board no one sus
pected that an appointment was
meditated but Mr. Bolger was on hand,
accompanied by Henry S. Curtis of the
Adams Express company in whose em
ploy Mr. Bolger is at present. Mr.
Curtis was his sponser before the
board. After his election Mr. Bolger

the vacancy caused by the resignation
of Patrolman Masek. The new patrol
man is 35 years of age. He was born

will go on duty as soon as his uniform

Watching A Stomach
Digest Food
Was the Means Whereby
Science Made Possible
the Cure of Dyspepsia
The Abbe Spallanzani was the first
scientist to study systematically the
chemical powers of the gastric juice.
but it was by the carerul and convinc
ing experiments of Beaumont that the
foundation of our exact knowledge of
its composition and action was laid.
Beaumont was an -irmy surgeon, lo
cated at an obscure military post in
Michigan, while it was yet a terri
tory, and was called upon to treat a
guii shot wound of the stomach in a
Canadian voyageur Alexis St. Martin.
When the wound healed a permanent
opening was left by means of which
food could toe placed in the stomach
and gastric juice taken from it.
Beaumont made scientific experi
ments with his crude moans and wrote
a book, which today is recognised
among the classics of physiology.
Beaumont blazed the way for other
scientists so that today medicine
knows what the stomach does with
food and what food does to the stom
ach. Science also knows what the gastric
juices are and how to make them best
for the system.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, thanks
to the poor army surgeon and Alexis
St. Martin, give man a means of di
gesting food, replenishing the exhaust
ed juices, soothing the nerves and cor
recting dyspeptic conditions of the
stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are nat
ural fruit and -egcta Uc essences re
duced in concentrated form and by
tremendous power compressed into a
tablet. These wonderful little diges
ters are known all over America and
Canada. Full meals have been di
