 RICHARD III.
 A tragedy unless in the hands of thor ough company is risky thing to undertake
 even to a full house and rarely escapes the ever ready ridicule of the regular theater at-
 tendant. Mir. Richard Foote, therefore, who appeared as Richard III'' at the New Haven Opera House last evening, labored
 under great disad vantage His support was weak and the audience small He undoubt- edly is an actor of talent and some parts of his work were forcibIe and intelligently done. He was several times called before the cur tain. This evening the play will be re-
 peated.
 NEW AMERICAN THEATER. Another fine array of variety talent greet ed the large audience at the American last evening, who were kept in a continued state
 of laughter. Corners and Kelly did some
 very fine singing and dancing and showed
 some pleasing novelties in their line. WS
 Sandilsnds, the latest European novelty, and bis partner, MT. J. Walsh, gave an excellent
 display of Irish patriotic vocAlism, and won
 several hearty recalls. Ali Barker very cIev- rly burlesqued Pat Rooney, his imi-
 original La Petite Kittie is truly lilliputisn wonder. She is but thirty three inches in height and seventeen years old. and in her songs and dances she made Q decided hit last evening. Fayette Welch's amusing afterpiece, ''School," was fitting conclusion to the evenings performance, and Welch's inimitable expression when he tells the teach CT That's good for Patsy'' convRlsed the house each time it was uttered. This even ing the election returns will be announced from the stage as fast as they are received from the different wards.
