Entertainments.

The Hanlon brothers in their well known ''Le Voyage en Suisse" drew fair sized au- dieace at the New Haven Opera House. The performance was given under the auspices of the Connecticut Press association and the proceeds will go toward establishing fund for needy and retired journalists. The play is styled farcical absurdity and kept the audience laughing all the evening. All the fun was furnished by. the Messrs. Ed ward Hanlon and Edward Edwards, who assumed the roles of the model servants. The remainder of the com pany have but little to do except to allow all manner of tricks and jokes to be played upon them. Miss Emily Bancker made very handsome village beauty and Miss Helen Mortimer received a triple encore for her new motto song "Neyer No More" "Le Voyage en Suisse" will be repeated tonight and tomorrow afternoon and evening. It will have large audiences notwithstanding the other attractions.
