ENTERT4INWEN


AT the Hyperion last evening very
large audience greeted Fanny Daven-
port in her portrayal of the part of
Cleopatra, Egypt's ancient queen, in
the always interesting story of her pas
sion for Rome's great general, Antony.
In her representation of the part Miss
Davenport brings in all the passionate
grace which we can imagine would
mark that ancient charmer, of whose
beauties and charms the writer's of the
intervening ages have given US proof.
The play follows closely the old histo-
rical narrative, and Shakespeare's YER
sion of the story. Owing to an attack
of neuralgia which has been bothering
her for some time, Miss Davenport did
not play yesterday afternoon, and no
matinee was held. She would probably
have been able to play but the house
for the matinee was rather small, and

OBITUARY.
Death of Mrs. Davis, Wife of james a
Dayis-A Series of Bereavements

Dealt, of Mrs. Davis, Wife of james A.
Davis-A Series of Bereavements.
After many months Of i'll health,
borne with sweet patience and resigna-
ton. Mrs. S. Emma Parks, wife of
James A. Davis, died yesterday at the
residence of the family, No. 693 Orange
street. Her age was forty-two. All
that the best medical skill and kind
care coupled with journeyings for
change of air. could do for the sufferer
were unavailing. She spent a large
portion of the cold season of a year ago
in a. far southern state and some I'M
movement resulted, but soon after her
return she began to fail again, and last
summer was spent mainly in Iitchtield.
She passes away lamented by many
friends. She leaves her husband, who
is the well known brick manufacturer,
firm of Davis Brothers, and several
children. The funeral takes place to-
morrow afternoon.
Mr.. Davis, the bereaved husband, lost
his father, the late Mr.. Davis OF Ham
den a number Of months ago, and to-
day occurs the funeral of his aunt, Mrs.
Emily Davis, widow of the late Sam
ueI Davis, who was, like his brother, an
old prominent and esteemed resident OF
Hamden.

he worked his way up and down a nigh

she felt that she would rather lose the
money for the performance than to try
TO play, as she was in eXcruciating
pain. She felt that by a rest she would
be able to make better presentation

night, and will surely so on to-day.

and standing room only was obtain

The delightful play, "a Country Mer-
chant" comes to the Grand opera house
tonight, and tomorrow matinee and
night. 1t is a play of sterling merit.
The arrangement of the acts furnishes
ample scope for the presentation of
some comedy situations of a surprising
kind and many of highly laugh-pro-
vol<ing order. Mr.. Charles CoWles, who
will enact the principal role, that OF a
genuine countryman is we'll known as
very able delineator of Yankee char
acters. His methods are original and
refreshing, and particularly striking on
account of the naturalness of his work.
Those who are fond of pathos, sentl-
ment fun and music are assured OF a
rare treat. Mr.. CoWles has capital
company.
