Hoyt's Theatre opened its doors for the season

The chief difference between this farce and some
OF its prototypes that have found favor, whether
deserved or undeserved, Is that "A Bacheior':
Honeymoon Is written with less OF the art that
conceals the art. The seams are often visible. For
reasonable probability no care Is taken; There are
one or two touches that are genuinely amusing,
notably that scene in the last act In which two OF

THE WRONG MR.. WRIGHT"

At the Bjou Theatre yesterday Roland Reed
began short engagement by giving two perform
ances of George II. Broadhursts farce, The
Wrong Mr.. Wright" Mr.. Broadhurst is a writer
who is capable OF making something little better
than the average farce OF theatrical commerce. II
the present one is not much better than the aver
age 1t at least shows this capability II has situa-
tons that original and dialogue that Is. in
places extremely bright and entertaining The
writer frequently loses sight Of his standard and
wanders In the wastes Of conventionaty but even
then he does not drop into the pitfall Of vugarity
which so many farce maker; ESCAPE falling into
simply by never being out Of IL. The main idea OF
The Wrong Mr.. Wright is a clever one. and
there need be little quarrel with the way In which
II Is carried out.
Mr.. Reed has got together good company to act
a work of this kind Besides himself. Miss Isadore
Rush. Charles s. Able. Miss Helen Heating and
Miss Maud White performed their parts effectively
while Bert Coote was delightfully."- funny as Lord
Brazenface. After all these years II Is no small
achievement to make the recognized weakened

UPSTATE OPINION.

Those who have been striving to arouse Re
publicans to realize the awful periis TO which
sound money, social order and party principles
would be subjected If the organization III THIS
city permitted itself to join the Low move
ment were right, it seems, when they pointed
out that the Mayoralty question was or more
than metropolitan importance. The STATE Is
aroused and is focking hither to see that
Messrs. Platt and Quigg are not beguiled INTO
any false steps and that the interests or the
Republican party of the State are. not sacri-
feed Senator Ranes and Congressman Odell
have arrived and they bring word that the
rural Republicans are intensely aroused over
the threatened surrender Of party advantage
IN this city. These country voters are Repub-
licans through and through, without taint
Of Mugwumpery. They are an influential force
over the city organization, for they are the
dominant power in the Legislature and local
leaders have to ask them favOrs, and they Will
not readily permit the action Of the Citizens
Union in nominating Mr.. Low TO interfere with
their power at Albany.
And how do they expect to stop It? BY tell
ing the New-York organization leaders that the
one thing that the State requires OF them this
year is the keeping of the city government out
of Tammany control. They would prefer to
are shocked at the bad manners Of the Citizens
Union in putting Mr.. Low so early In the field.
They sympathizc with Mr. Quigg over the fail
ure of some people to pay proper respect to his
leadership. But neither to rebuke bad man
uers nor TO yindicate the dignity Of Mr.. Qugg
have they any intention Of making their local
leadership an empty bauble by helping Tam
many Hall once more to rule the State. They
do not mean 10 spend their time giving al imi-
tation OF repeing anarchy when they have
something else to do. Mr.. Raines is quoted as
indicating that no policy that contemplated the
defeat Of the anti-Tammany forces for the sake
of any prospective local organization advantage
would be tolerated by the State leaders, but
that they would insist on some basis Of CO.
operation being found which would prevent
Croker and Mclaughlin from ruling the city
and thereby undermining their power in the
State.
8 As is well known. Mr.. Quigg has in the past
held somewhat low views OF Mr. RaInes. But
we think that will not prevent his giving states
manlike consideration to the opinions Of the
gentleman from Canandaigua. He has been
endeavoring all along 10 take statesmanlikc
views. He wished his organization to do it's
part for Republication at large lie wished
ITO hand on safely the Jewel placed in his
charge. The only trouble has been that he
seemed In danger Of mistakipg his enemy and

initial performance last night at the Knckerbocker
Theatre. In Town IS new TO NewYork. but il

from the Galety Theatre that IL can by no means
be regarded a stranger. Indeed II IS cut from
