Entertainments. GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

"A Dark Secret" will be the attraction tonight and Friday and Saturday even- ings. There will be a matinee on Satur- day. It is produced with all the original scenery and accessories used in the New York production. The stage is covered with tank containing 50,00O gallons of water upon which a real etesmer plies back and forth. The Henley regatta is wildly portrayed, real race being rowed upon the water, and the scene of the old church at Henley is very fine.
 The following telegram was received by MT. Bunnell yesterday afternoon, dated New York:
 G. B. Bunnell, Grand Opera House, New
 Haven, Conn:
 Don't fail to give an extra special mati- nee on Tuesday on account of the boxing kangaroo and the strongest show we ever had. We are turning people away at every performance here. great mistake not playing New Haven whole week. You will draw for miles around Cannot we open lower hall for reception at close of performance to accommodate ladies and children. REILLY AND WooDs.
 The world famous boxing kangaroo, Big Frank, will prove big attraction. His pugilistic skill is amazing and the manage ment are coining bright dollars out of the novelty.
 "Wang," which is to be produced to- morrow night, has had 8 metropolitan run of sufficient length to make the plot 8 matter of general information, 80 that the majority of theater-goers already know that "Wang," regent of Siam and uncle of Matays, the crown prince, has been left by his deceased brother with large stock of liabilities and very few available assets. The largest of the former is an elephant bought-on credit-from the king of Cam bodia. This is where the elephant comes in in the plot. He comes in on the stage every now and then, the most irresistibly funny "property" animal imaginable. The efforts of Wang to rid himself of the "sle- phant on his hands" make up the play.
 "Africa," which Is presented by George Thatcher and his operatic extravaganza company, will appear on Thursday and Friday of next week. This is the produc- tion which attained such saccess in Bos- ton, having big two weeks run there. It has been twelve weeks since the company left the Pacific coast on their eastern tour.
 PoLIs WONDERLAND.
 Large audiences were in attendance all day yesterday and the program was all that was promised for it. Leonard and Fulton opened the performance and were heartily greeted; then came the Msszsllos, in their marvellous acrobatic performance and novel ladder act; the Belle sisters, instrumental Ists, vocalists and dancers, were enthusi- astically encored; Waller and Waller sp- peared in their funny musical act; Lennie and Milton, the boy wonders, made big nit with their original speciality, "The Sal vation Army" Mile. Bowers, the aerial l 1ueen, scored hit, and others. The per- .ormancs this week is excellent.

27TH REGIMENT c. V. REUNION.

The Twenty fifth Annual Reunion Held Yesterday at East Rock Park A Bounteous Repass Followed Dy Speeches by Governor Morris, Gen. eral Bradley, Mayor Sargent, Gem eral Couch of Norwalk and Many Veterans-A Poem by Mrs. A. J. Doty-Presentation of a Drawing to James ". Rice of Woodbridge.
 Under the shadow of that stately monu- ment which towers up from the summit of East Rock, commemoratiDg and telling to future generations the glories and triumphs of the American soldiers, yesterday about 170 of the 250 surviving veterans of the Twenty-seventh regiment, Connecticut Volunteers, with their wives and children met together for their twenty fifth annual | reunion. It is now over quarter Of 8 century since the veterans stood together on the battlefield, and they met together on this completion of another year which ! separates them from their soldier days with the warmest friendship and cor diality.
 | Many were the stories, incidents of army life and "reminiscences which were re- |
 hearsed by the men, who on this day of all the year are carried back to the battlefield and the camp fires.
 The men assembled at the Second Regi- | ment armory at 9:3O o'clock yesterday morning and marched to the green, where they took the Whitney avenue cars to the foot of the rock, where bsrges awaited them to carry them up to the top.
 large tent had been erected just back Of the restaurant and under this tables were spread to accommodate about 200 people. The food was prepared by the ladies and was bounteous and no one went hungry. From the top of the monument large American flag waved and the cano py over the tables was decorated witt flags.
