Florence Tomp- and in a pirating nsi- cai and re vera! other numbers the I'alace Theater the last of the week, in addition to "Lord and Lady Algy," the feature picture with Tom Moore. which proved one of the most entertaining in weeks. The Japanese, troupe lias appeared in Hartford before and, as on previous occasions, their act proves popular. One oi tne lour members of the troupe, with thumbs tied, exhibits remarkable facility at catching metal hoops and later passes his arms through a solid pole. The water throwing trick receives as much ap- but showed an comedy vein nls mvn pl0voked more or less consiani mum Irani tne auai- tnce, althouch some of the humor was a trine "lull.

Gruetl. Kramer and Gruelt and Guv Weadick and Flores La Due present which met v. ah approval. "Lord and Lady Algy" is a picture of life in the Isles and lord Algernon, son of a duke and brother of a marquis, is the principal char- acter, together with ins wife Lady i Algernon. Lord and Lady Algy" do not agree, as the wife objects lo her husbands interest in the races, and hence they asree to disagree, biddinu each other i a comradely farewell.

Lord AlKy then places his fast failing wealth at stake and wafers his all on IJewdrop, i while Lady Alsy. supplied with in- formation by a friend of the familv. places her purse on Flickamoore. at odds of 60 to 3. one of the wafers being with Acquaintance Husband.

In the meantime the marquis becomes enamored of the wife of a wealthy soap manufacturer, and the elder brother beseeches Lord Algy to aid him in his affair, while the soap manutacturer appeals to Algy to help him recover his wife's affections, he not knowing the man involved. Sus- i picion men tails on Algernon, but in the end he is cleared and Dewdrop loses the race, but his wife and himself become lovers again. The scenic effects of thfe picture are remarkable. It is well worth seeing. (Special to The Courant.) New Britain.

Oct. 30. Just as the hands of the clock pointed to 11:30 this forenoon, Herman Fleischer of Osgood avenue, one of the managers of the Stanley Works factory, was surrounded by Chairman George P. Hart of the board of direc- tors and other officials and employees i of the company, and given a gold watch, a bouquet of flowers and fifty gold dollars, one for each of the two score and ten years he has been in the I company's employ. Just fifty years i ago yesterday, at 11:30 o'clock, Mr.

Fleischer became a "Stanley Worker," In charge of the plating department, and now he has the distinction of be-; ing the oldest man, in point of service, in the factory, William H. Hart, former president of the company and his cousin, Charles E. Hart, who still works in the office, are the only men still connected with the concern, who were in the company's employ when Mr. Fleischer donned his overalls and went to work there. i Always conscientious and painstak- i ing with his work, Mr.

Fleischer at- tracted attention and was promoted whenever the opportunity presented itself. Since entering the company's employ, be has been roreman of three departments besides the plating room, and is now employed in a managing and advisory capacity. Yesterday, rounding out fifty years of cmpU- ment ith the Stanley Works, he could not help remarking the changes that have taken place. The Stanley Works fifty years ago was an infant compared to what it is now, and it is because of the efforts of such employers as Mr. Fleischer that its growth and prosperity have been so wonderful.

In addition to the gifts, Mr. Fleischer received a letter from Wil- liatn H. Hart, who is at Oak Bluffs, Martha's Vineyard, congratulating hint nn his nnnivormirv nnrl Wall.r H. Hart, superintendent of the fac- congratulated him and ex- i pressed the hope that he will be able to give to the Stanley Works, the lang, faithful service that Mr. Fleischer has given.
