 JOLLY BACHELORS.
 This new comic opera sensation will be
 presented at the Grand Opera House on Tuesday evening" March 7. by John A. Ste- vens' excellent comic opera company. This
 company has been received with great favor in all the principal eastern and western cities where they have produced this new operatic absurdity. It differs from all other comic operas in its originality and is full of funny situations. The music is spoken of as being light, sparkling and catching The cast, as will be seen by reference to the advertise ment, is an unusually strong one A fine chorus and the company's own orchestra are additional attractions. CHAMBER CONCERTS.
 l The first concert of our lscal String Quar- tette club takes place this evening at the Athe- | neun. No musician should fail to attend kIorT oE 4hn Tr,t,n p% order in instrumental music. There has l been a large sale of tickets and it speaks well 1 for New Haven to patronize classical cham 1 Der music. The programme contains two l quartettes of Haydn and Schubert. Mrs. l Graziella Robertson, the popular prima 1 donna, will sing charming French romanza l with variations with violin obligato. MT. Ed. Balck, New Haven's wellknown violin vir- tuoso, will play Ernst's difficult Aria Hon. groise. Those not having their seats secured ! should do so at once. Tickets at M. Steinert's music store.
 l The above new play will be presented al | Carll's Opera House next Saturday evening ] by Dion Boucicault. The reputation of MT. l Boucicault is CT ough to guarantee large au dience, and the new play is said to be his greatest success. A late exchange says | 'Dion Boucicault closed at the Bostol Muse I VAN constant crowds in attendance. The new play sSuil a-Mor,'- has drawn to the house more people than were ever in it before il
 the same time, and week ago yesterday over 1000 people were turned away from the
 doors. The papers all agree that 'Suil-a
 Mor' is a revision of 'The O'Dowd,' but the
 changes are many and the improvement great. The attendance shows, better than l any criticism could, how attractive the piece 1 is and how well Mir. Boucicault acts in it." | CLARA LOUISE KELLOGG.
 Miss Kellogg's visit to New Haven will de
 light and draw.to Carlls Opera House large
 audience. She will appear in concert to
 morrow evening, and will be assisted by 6
 number of renowned artists. The company

 prising as it does such scelebrities as Herr s
 Liebling pianist, Signor Tagliapietra baritone
 Mir. Timothy Adamowski violinist, Miss Clarf
 Poole contralto. Signor Brignoi tenor, and 1 Mir. Adolph Close accompanisf and musica
 director. It will be seen that concert o1 rare merit IS assured and that musica
 treat very seldom offered in this city is ii
 store for all those who are desirous of i'm proving the opportunity. The sale of seats
 already indicates large audience, which vii undoubtedly be one of the most brilliant anc l fashionable of the season.
