 The Csar's famous capital begun amid such unpromising surroundings has become one of the sights of Europe.

 CONFUSION.
 Mir. John Stetson's Comedy company will appear in "Confusion'' at CarlI's Opera House next Monday and Tuesday The Lon don Illustrated News says of the piece: The veriest stoio in the way of self-command cannot restrain a smile, and oft must plead guilty to laughing boisterously at the anus ing situation skillfully led up to at the close of the first act. The fun becomes fast and furious when baby and a pug dog are in- troduced into Jersey Lodge in the second act, and fresh complications are occasioned by the discovery of the baby hidden in the sideboard and the finding of the dog hidden in the cupboard. Confusion helps mate riRIly to divert London in the dull season." RICHARD III.
 Quite large audience greeted Thomas W. l Keene in Richard III" at the New Haven Opera House last evening. Mir. Keene gave highly creditable rendition of the very difficult role he assumed and showed great improvement 1n his fine performance of the same part two years ago. The support was l much above the average in ability and tha | absence of anything like ''Rtage waits" ena bled the company to finish the six acts of the tragedy before eleven o'clock The | applause was frequent and the attention of | the audience was maintained from first to ! last. MT Keene and his excellent comnsnv may expect an oVerfowing house at his next visit to this city.
 | SOL SMITH RUSSELL,
 At Carll's Opera House Friday evening Sol Smith Russell will appear in his delightful comedy, ''Edgewood Folks.'' The drama has been rewritten and reconstructed and is now in three Rsts. MT. Russell has added num- Der of new specialties and character songs to his play, and is pleasing the public more than ever, if we can judge by the very large audi eness he has met with at all his eneapements this season. His facial play and character il lusions are marvelops, and his humor is as clearly an ebuliition of nature as crystal spring which bubbles up and runs over be. cause it can't help it. But in Sol Smith Rms sell there gre many different colored fountains of mirth in mimiery. which wonld put to shame the most cultured nlocking bird, could the merry feathered songster understand i The company Is under the management of MT. Fre5. G, Berger.
