EvANGELINE.
Evangeline at the New Haven Opera
House last night drew a crowd that left not
bore witness to the fact that the popularity
of the play has in no wise diminished. The
audience came to laugh and the droliness of
the clone Fisherman" provided many OPP
portunities to do So The heifer, famous as
being the part in which Dixey first appeared,
pleased the audience much ever. The
scenery was good and all the parts were well
taken. The Amazon march was noticeable
for the costumes displayed and for the pre-
cision of execution. A few unfortunate
bitches occurred in changing the scenery,
which will doubtless be remedied at the per-
formances this afternoon and evening.

appreciation which was shown by the large

MIR. DOolittle's Argument.
To the editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
The writer happened to be an auditor yes
terday afternoon in the Superior court of an
argument addressed to the jury in the We'll
ton will case, which has reached the end of
the third week and is now near its conclu-
sion. AS the writer is an ex-member of the
profession he may have something of judg-
ment and discrimination as to what this
writing refers to. The argument was most
interesting, remarkable and convincing dis
play of forensic reasoning power and elo-
quence. This argument was made by the
Hon Ti1ton E. Doolittle, which did credit
not to the orator alone, but more to the pro-
fession. A striking feature of his effort was
that he held most tenaciously the utmost at
tention of tine jury, winning their confidence
at each step of two hours appeal to them.
So earnest as to impress those who heard
him that he was saying what he believed and
believed himself all that he said. The writer
has no earthly interest in the issue or result
of the case.
