GUS WILLIAMS.

The announcement of the annual visit to New Haven of the famous German dialect comedian Mr. Gus Williams is always re- ceived with favor, for few comedians are more popular with local theater-goers. He is rightly styled the greatest of all dialect comedians. A new play by Cal Wallace, en- titled "Keppler's Fortunes" was the vehicle through which the comedian delighted fair audience at the New Haven Opera House last evening. It tells the story of 8 poor German butcher in New York who is struggling with poverty. Just as he is about to succumb he wealthy brother in Germany, whose sole heir he ia. The play delineates the attempts of the suddenly enriched German to put on the style consistent with his wealth and support his position in society. In this MT. Williams finds abundant opportunity to display his peculiar abilities. which kept the audience last evening in 8 continual roar of laughter, hilarity reigning supreme. The comedian introduced his usual quota of pleasing songs, "Hard Times Come Again No More" in the first act and "When We Run with the Old Machine" in the third being received with marked approval. The supporting company is good. Especial mention may be made of Frank Girard as ''Dunc Nelson, "a relic of thea old fire department, of MT. 0. F. Tingay as David Crane" and Miss Hattie Ferguson as "Addie Keppler," the lady of the family. Large audiences will attend the perform ances this afternoon and evening, when the for this season closes.

The gifted young actress Vernona Jarbeau appeared as Starlight" in the musical farce comedy of that name last evening. The support was good and we'll deserved the ap- plause received. Miss Jarbeau and her two pet kids in the first act were very amusing. She made hits in the French song "Pin Omit" and in her imitation of the French prima donna Mme Theo. Richard Carol as Quaver, tho operatic manager, kept the audience we'll amused. His representation of Henry Irving as Hamlet in the gravedigger scene was very funny Miss Bessie Cleveland as Miss Lucy Raf1e won several recalls Walter F. Condit appeared as Lord Bondholder, al- though his name was not on the programme. The performance will be repeated this after noon and evening.

GRANTS OPINION OF SHERIDAN.

Grant and Sheridan were both mod
est and uns.li.sh men. The great
commander" was never envious of he
exploits of his generals but reioice,i
ut their victories and joined in their
praise. lie was so peerless himself
| that he could afford to be generous.
His admiration for Sheridan knew no
bounds. and he thus freely speaks OF
him in his memoirs:
AS II soldier, as a commander OF
troops. rs n man capable of doing
all that is possible with any number
OF men, there is no man living greater
than Sheridan. He belongs to the
very first rank OF soldiers. not only
of our country, but of the world. l
rank Sheridan with Napoleon and
Frederick and the great commanders
OF hist Dry. No man ever had such u
faculty OF finding out things as Sher-
dan, OF knowing all about the enemy
He was always the best informed man
of the command as to the enemy.
Then he had that magnetic quality OF
swaying men which ! wish I had-a
rare quality in II general. ! don't
think any one can give Sheridan too
high praise

MOST TEsrIrIEs.

John Most was u witness before the
emigration investigation committee
IN New York, last week He said that
''he believed that there were about
fifty million sympathizers with social
ism in the world, while only about
three million and Il half of them were
openly working in the cause" lie
thought there were about two million
anarchist sympathizers in the United
States, and that there were more
anarchists in Germany than ten years
ago. Most attributes the increase in
the United States to the spread OF
anarchist literature. Most is as willy
as he is wicked. 1t is the emigrat ion
from the oppressed countries OF Europe
that has caused the increase. Men of
the Most stripe come here with their
vicious doctrine because they can exer-
else greater liberty of speech and
action. Cut Off the recruits to their
ranks from foreign lands and anarchy
will be shot lived. 1t is not OF Ameri-
can origin and has not hing to siibsist
ON here. Ii American workmen look
to them for aid and sympathy in their
struggle to better their condition. they
will injure themselves. The anarchist
comes to destroy NOT to build up
We can hardly blame man for being
an anarchist or nihillst in Germany or
Russia, and it may be only in their
weakness that folly lies, but hero in
free America, where the masses choose
their own servants and make their
own laws such doctrines cannot
eot Il foot hold.
