lil fEllONs
 The Hyperion was again filled last evening by Q very large and apprecla- tive audience which loudly applauded the many specialues and beautiful seen cry in Excelsior, jr," Again Miss Vaughn, Walter Jones' Miss Perry and Nlr Dunn made great hits Miss Naughn'a singing of Little Annie Rooney was warmly applauded, and the singing by the students in the au- dience was excellent and compelled Miss Vaughn to respond to a triple encore, The Friar's song in the second act has been the hit of the show, and was much improved by a number of new voices last night, The performaucefhas been pruned down until it is now in a most excellent shape. MT, Rice has brought this magnificent production to this city, knowing full well that the theater-going public highly appreciates his efforts, and that his name attached to a theatrical production is a guaran- tee of good value. In the present one he has made one of the greatest hits of l his life. Too much credit cannot be given MT, Rice in this line, He has worked both day and night for it's sue cess, and that his work has been sue cessful is evinced by the large audiences which have put their stamp of approval on it by their attendance.
 As to the cast there can be found no fault, as they are all artists of the high 1 est reputation in their lines and as to the scenery it is simply grand. The l theater-going public are this week being treated to a performance that is seldom seen outside of New York MT. Braham, tthe leader of the orchestra, is deserv- ing of great credit for the excellent work of his orchestra, which, under his lead- ership, has mastered the music so well that they are deserving of special praise. This company will appear but for three more performances, and should be wit messed by crowded houses. Tomorrow night is Yale night. There will be a special matinee tomorrow.
 One of the principal dramatic events of the present theatrical season will be the appearance of Modieska and her supporting company next Saturday night. The announcement that this is | city, previous to her permanent retire. ment from the stage, makes the en- gagement one of peculiar interest. Mod- jeska has won a reputation second to none among the actresses of the world, and there are none among the theater- goers of this city who will not view with deep regret the prospect of her de- parture from public life. It may also be said here that there Is not a shadow of doubt concerning the genuineness of this announcement. Modjeska has nev- CT been known in her long and glorious career to break faith with the public, and it is safe for her to assert that she will not do so now, and that this en- gagement will positively be the last one that she will have here. The play to be presented on this occasion is Her mann Sudermann's famous work, Mag da." The presentation of this play is in itself great treat. Since Modjeska First presented it in Chicago about two years ago the work has come under the notice of all the great artists of Europe and both Bernhardt and Duse are now playing it with great success. Nodes ka's version of the work and presenta tion of the character are pronounced by critics who have witnessed all of then Eto be the best that has ever beer given. Sale of seats now open.
 Hi Henry's minstrels will be at tht Hyperion on Tuesday evening next.
 ''The Bachelors Baby" will be pre-
 scented by MT. and Mrs. Sidney Drew and their excellent supporting company at the Hyperion on Wednesday evening next, November 20.
