TO REMOVE POLES
ON BARNUM AVE.
(Special to The Farmer.)
Stratford, June 6. As no one ap
peared at the special selectmen's
meeting- held in the town hall at 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon who was
opposed to the Connecticut company
removing- some of its poles on Barnum
avenue, the selectmen will give the
company permission to remove the
poles specified and the company's feed
wires 1 will then be re-strung im the
present poles of the S. N. E. T. com
pany. After the wires have been re
moved from the- Connecticut com
pany's poles on the avenue the poles
will be taken down, making- several
less poles on the street.
It will he remembered that last fall
there was an agitation started to re
move some of the poles which lined
Barnum avenue in groups of three or
four poles every fifty feet or so. The
matter was taken up with the Public
Utilities Commission and as a result
several poles were taken down. Now
that permission has been granted the
Connecticut company to remove its
poles, more will be removed, and it is
expected that the fUnited Illuminating
company will In the near future re
move its, poles and place its wires on
the same poles with the telephone and
the Connecticut company. The street
as a result will be greatly improved
as far as looks goes, for the groups
of three and four poles which line the
high-way now are anything but artistic
or beautiful in appearance.
The residents of the Vicinity who
appeared - at the hearing were all in
favor of having- as many of the poles
as possible removed and as the object
of the Connecticut company's petition
was to remove some of its poles on
Barnum avenue near King street, ev
ery one was in favor of letting the
company do this.

PARK THEATRE
(By the Parfe Press Agent.)
"MAVS INHUMANITY"
William Perry Hopkins, dramatic
correspondent on the Mew York Dra
matic Mirror wrote in his review of
Robert M. Sperry"a daring newspaper
play, "Man's Inhumanity", that it was
y far the beet and most solid play
that the author of elxteen annual suc
cesses has yet written. He also stat
ed that both the play and the cast
were capable of going on the road as
a regular standard attraction and that
Miss S-teinbach never did better work
In' her career. Last evening the play
went like wildfire " there was more
Jaughter and applause than has greet
ed the play and players so far this
week, this Is because the play Is now
running as smoothly as clockwork and
every member of the cast feels right
to home in his or her part. H. H.
Jackson and Dr. Delmar Croft of New
Haven Interested the audience on sub
jects pertaining to the Progressive
party and were given a ' rousing re
ception. The theatre was decorated
In bandannas and a large picture of
Theodore Roosevelt and Hiram John
ton. Tonight Us the big night of the
week when the play will he opened
with speech by one of the most en
tertaining orators on Woman Suffrage,
Mrs. Gertrude Murdock Duncan of
New Haven. Friday night has always
been the ,blg night of the annual clos
ing attractions and every effort Is be
ing put forth to have torrlght live up
to its reputation. All roads lead to the
Park theatre tonight.
FOX'S LYRIC THEATRE
(By tlxo Pox Lyric Press Agent.)
Judging by the advance sal for to
day and Saturday this, the opening
week of- the summer engagement of
Eleanor Cleveland and her players will
prove to be eminently successful' finan
cially and artistically and there is ev
ery reason to believe that1 the six
weeks engagement originally planned
for' will have to be extended through
the entire summer to satisfy the de
mands of the large following Miss
Cleveland and her associate players
have. It is surely a. truism that tal
ent will not - remain hidden and will
come Into Its own and it was never
m,ore exemplified than in ' the -case of
this clever little star whose fourteen
months starring- in this city at the
Lyric has endeared her to thousands
of loyal patrons and loyalty on the
part of patrons is a big- contributing
factor in the success of any theatre.
The opening play "Ddvorcons" was a
happy selection for it is of the light
comedy order and serves to show the
entire company in modern dress which
is always a good policy to pursue for
the opening. Royal receptions are
tendered , to Miss Cleveland and . Mr.
Conness at each performance and the
company is unique in that every mem
ber has a. big following. For the com
ing weeks attraction "The Desertere"
has ' been selected primarily because
Miss Cleveland was such a success in
It when she played It last season that
her followers pledged her to play it if
she ever returned to Bridgeport. One
thing Miss Cleveland always does is
to keep faith with the public, in bus
iness and professionally, and "The De
serters" will' be the bill. To those'
not familiar with the play It might
be explained that it was written, for
Helen Ware's first starring tour and
enjoyed a long run, at the Hudson
theatre with Miss Ware in the stellar
role. It is a tale of army life and
has the punch. There are twenty-six
speaking parts and there are ' thirty
people on the stage during the ac
tion of the play. Miss Cleveland in'
the leading role has . to her credit
newspaper reviews which agree that
it was the hit of her season when
here last. Stage Director Hummel is
Id his element with the producing of
thi3 play and with the added wealth
of scenery and the added bits of stage
business Introduce the play cannot
fail of being - the biggest sort of a
success. Seats for remaining perform
ances this -week' and all of next are
on sale now at the box office and the
subscription list for the entire season
is open and rapidly filling.
