A BRILLIANT SUCCESS.

The Reopening OF the Grand Opera
House Last Night-ManaRer Bum
nell Enthusiastically Applauded.
The new Grand opera house was bril-
iantly and most successfully opened for
the season of '92-'93 last evening In the
presence of an audience numbering fully
1900 people. The beautiful theater pre-
sented very fine appearance, and is q
credit to the city and state. A description
of the premises has already been given.
Last night potted plants were arranged
about the theater and American flags were
prettily draped around the galleries. The
front of the theater was also decorated
with bunting and American flags. The
hundreds of electric lights fully brought
out the new handsome decorations of the
building. The orchestra of the new Grand
was augmented by the addition of the
Hyperion orchestra under Leaders Fels-
burg and Fichtl, the whole comprising the
Philharmonic orchestra. Manager Bunnell
was congratulated on all sides on the
magnificent appearance of his new opera
house.
During the evening Manager Bunnell
made short and felioitous speech. His
appearance on the stage was, the signal for
prolonged applause, which continued for
fully five minutes before he could make
himself heard. He spoke substantially as
follows: Ladies and gentlemen-It is with
feelings of great pleasure that I welcome
you this evening. 1t is now four months
and ten days since we bid adieu to the old
Grand opera house. During that time 1t
has been transformed into this elegant
play house that you see tonight. Nothing
but the side walls and ceiling now remain
of the old house. This reception fills me
With cannot tell whst-[applause butt
overcomes me. There is one great change
which you will all notice. That is, the in
creased number of seats. There now are
four exits from the gallery and four from
the lower floor
ALI the improvements have not been
completed, as the front of the building Is
to be also retouched, and when everything
is finished, I tell you, the house will be
one of the finest in New England. Again
thanking you for this most suspicious re-
ception, bid you all good night.
The assistants to Manager Bunnell are
w. h. Van Buren,, assistant manager; Ed
ward George Morton, press agent, and John
Hendricks, treasurer Tho head usher is
@. A. Blydenburgh, and Charles R. Clouds
Icy will be on hand to take tickets. Frank
Peck will be found behind the curtain in
the position of stage manager.
The account of the performance last
evening is given in another column.

MONEY AND MAN MISSING.

r. J. Keller, an Employe of @. f.
Wlssert, Absconds With His Em-
plOyer,s Team and MOney-The
Team Subsequently Found In West
Haven.
Frank ]. Keller, who resides at 80 Web
ster street, and has been employed for tho
past year as clerk for Charles ]. Wissert,
the grocer on Webster street, Is missing,
and with him about $75 Of his employers
money, which he had collected. Keller,
who is the son of minister residing in
Chenango Falls, N. Y, is twenty seven
years of age, and has a wife and child re-
| siding with his father.
About year ago Keller came to this
city and secured employment with Mr..
Wissert at the latter's store. Yesterday
morning Keller started over his route at
about 10 o'clock with the delivery wagon
and collected about SIS. He was due back
at the store at II o'clock, but failed to
show up. Mr.. Wissert's suspicious be-
coming aroused, he started to trace the
whereabouts of the missing man. 1t was
learned that Keller, after leaving the store
went to his room and removed his clothing
which he placed in the delivery wagon and
then drove off. At II o'clock he was seer
in the vicinity of Westville driving away
from the city at rapid rate. Later in tn
day Mr.. Wissert's team was found hitchee
to a post near the West Haven depot, ant
the supposition is that Keller took a trair
from that station and is by this time saf'
in New York.
Several days ago Keller received a lette
from home to the effect that his wife ano
child would arrive in this city yesterday
and that his father would accompany then
as far as New York city. Subsequently
} however, he received postal stating tina
his father had met with an accident ant
would be unable to accompany his wifi
| on part of the trip, and advising him t.
come to Chenango Forks and bring hi
J wife back with him. 1t is supposed tina
possibly he may have gone there.
Up to yesterday Mr.. Wissert had n
, idea that Keller was in the slightest d.
gree dishonest, although several times b
i. had absented himself from business with
> out permission. Mr.. Wissert stated las
evening that he had learned up to thu
t time of but SAL which Keller had co

FUN LAST EVENING.

Freshmen Awake to the Sober Real
tiles of Life at Young Yale.
The students are returning. All day
yesterday the incoming trains from all
directions left new contingent and last
cradle noise. Early in the evening all the
sophomores gathered and picked up every
freshman who could be found. 1t was
very amusing to see one of the new arri-
walls strutting down Chapel street carrying
that unmistakable freshmanic air, as if the
town belonged to him, and it was equally
amusing to note his surprise and chagrin
when he found himself gently but firmly
and forced to accompany them to one of
the student resorts in the neighborhood.
Those who tried to escape by staying at
home were no more successful, in many
cases, for their rooms were ruthlessly in
vaded by the vigilant "press gangs

returned to their rooms ruffied and wiser
youths.
Some of the tricks practiced were such
as making the freshmen drink milk
through straw which was accompanied
by sudden upsetting of the tactical fluid
on the freshman's nose; and compelling
them to be dressed in the style of garments
which they discarded when they ceased tc
be infants. These tricks were accompanied
by no end of jollity and hilarity in which
the poor freshmen often joined in spite Of
| their misfortunes. A few timid freshmen
| who were set up for dime museum freaks
show on one of the tables were surrounded
| at once by the "howling dervishes" whose
| antics were far from reassuring to the
alarmed objects of all this attention.

I ceived and as If not at all laundering fol-

Which Causes Severe Injury to Officer
DippOId.
Officer John Dippold was seriously in
jured yesterday morning by an unusual
accident. He was patroling his beat on
State street, near the Selden house, when
the shower of rain came down. The officer
stepped under the awning in front of F.
A. Mysick's cigar store. He had stood
there but a minute when a gust of wind
came through the store, slamming the big
doors with bang. The large panes Of
glass in the doors smashed to pieces. One
large piece of glass struck the officer In
the leg and a sharp point of the piece
pierced the lower part of the calf of his
right leg, making an ugly wound from
which the blood poured out. It was feared
that an artery had been cut. he managed
to walk to the station and DR.. Gaynor was
summoned. The wound is q bad one,
though not dangerous. The officer will
not be about for several days.
