ENTERTAINMENTS.
IIyperIou,


 Mir. Crane begins his long promised engagement at the Hyperion theater to- night, when he will present his new play "A Fool of Fortune" Like all of the actors previous works his latest is intensely American and the success with which it has been presented is said to have been genuinely emphatic. The primary object of the play is the demonstration of two national follies, both of which are adroitly attacked one, the reckless pursuit of wealth by speculation; the other, the hunt after titled bridegrooms. Elisha Cunning ham, the hero, is a self-made man, who, after a lucky hit in Wall street, takes his daughter Marjorie, to Europe, and returns With a French count in his train and all kinds of ridiculous fash ionable affectations. Throughout the play there run two interesting love stories, one of which furnishes much of the comedy interest. MT. Crane is credited with doing the best work of his career as Cunningham. The cast fol- lows; Elisha Cunningham, William H. Crane; Nathaniel Lloyd, Percy Brooke; Karl Worresdorf, Boyd Putnam; Count de Cluny, Edwin Arden; Cornelius Green, William Boag Ezekiel Powers, George F.
