EntertainmenHs.
PROF. PHILLIPS AT LooMIs'.

The second illustrated lecture at Loomis' hall last night by Philip Phillips was attend ed by about four hundred people. His sketches were taken from his trip half round the world, from Bombay to New York. Among the best Illustrations were the Suez canal, Jerusalem, Rome, Naples, Milan, the Alps, Paris, London, Edinburgh, Belfast and the statue of liberty in New York harbor. MT. Phillips enlivened the lecture with a few characteristic songs. This evening his lec- ture will be upon America, and will doubt less be very interesting, as many of the scenes of grandeur in the United States and British Columbia will be depicted, while scenes way down South in Dixey, represent ing old plantation life, will be represented. Tickets and seats at Loomis'.
 sroDDARD's LECTURE. The Hyperion was again filled last night on the occasion of the final lecture by Mr. John L. Stoddard. No one who has heard the eminent traveller in any of his former lectures, will doubt for a moment that he has succeeded in making this, his latest, the best of all. The illustrations, too, were ex- ceptionslly beautiful and most appropriate. GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
 There were large houses at the Grand yes terday to see Kate Purssell in "Queen of the Plains" The last performance will be given to-day. In the museum hall Prof. Angeles is amusing crowds with his performing birds.
 PROF. BRIsToL's EQyEsCURRICgLUM.
 Prof. D. M. Bristol's equescurriculum will begin at the Hyperion to night. The Boston Herald says: Boston has seen some wonder fuI performances of educated horses, but poyar orv xphiob s-rpassaa he ana r1nder di rection of Prof. Bristol, now at the Globe Theater. The tricks and antics of these horses are simply amazing"
 THE TWO SISTERS.
 "The Two Sisters" written by Denman Thompson and George W. Ryer, will be played at the New Haven Opera House for three days, commencing tomorrow night. The New York Sun says "It is going to be we'll liked by all play-goers. It touches the chord of human sympathy. There are lines and incidents in the story that will move the heart as only true continent and actual sor row can. It is brimful of wholesome enter tainment. It treats of hemely life without vulgar wit. The play teaches good lesson without any signs of preaching. It sends everybody away in a friendly mood"
 BILL ME AND RILEY.
 Bill Nye, the humorist, and James Whit comb Riley, the poet, will give an entertain ment at Hyperion on Monday, the 18th. Their entertainment is funnier than a min strel show and is certain to draw 8 large house.
 BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.
 The third concert of the season by the Bos- ton Symphony orchestra is appointed for next Monday evening at the Hyperion Theater. The remaining opportunities for hearing this fine organization under Mir. Geriek'es direc tion are few, as this distinguished conductor returns to Vienna at the close of this season. At Mondays concert Miss Adele Aus der One will be the soloist and will be heard in new pianoforte concerto by Vogrich. The programme is most attractive in all respects and will doubtless be given to a large audi ence. Tickets are now sale at Steinert's music store.
 THE CITY GUARDS BALL.
 The City Guards have nearly perfected all the minor details of their annual masquerade ball. The captain of the company has an- ticipated a large sale of tickets, and has had enough printed to supply large demand. Three thousand tickets have been printed, and many of them have been distributed to the members, who find a ready sale for them. Three thousand fancy programmes for danc- seats will be placed in the galleries, where spectators may view the grand and varied spectacle on the main floor. As the price of admission is the same as last year, and as this grand masquerade can be seen but once in 8 year, the ball will doubtless be well pat ronized.
