4 PHEASANT EVENT..

The reception and banquet given by c. w. Bradley in the annex to large number of his former fellow citizens residing in East Haven was a most pleasant social affair. There are but few more eloquent and entertaining speakers than the Rev. Mr. Dent, the popular pastor of St. Andrews church, and he and his accomplished wife gave zest to this select and happy assembly. Miss Annetta Adeline Bradley, only daughter of the host and hostess, and for many years organist in the St. James church, Westville, furnished the instrumental music. Every member of the East Haven board of education was present with the exception of Miss Lottie D. Street, secretary. There were Grove J. Futile, president of the board; i; Charles W. Granniss, Frank M. Sperry, Samuel D. Chidsey and the selectmen of the town were represented by John S. Tyler and Henry T. Thompson. MT. Woodward the third member, is in Florida. Also present were Dwight w. Futile, state senator; Francis Foote Andrews, town representative to the general assembly. S. w. F. Andrew, s. W. M, of the East Haven grange, No. 106; L. s. Bagley, town auditor and registrar, and William H. Chidsey, town constable, were also present. Among the ladies were Mrs. Dent, Mrs. s. D. Chidsey, Mrs. l.. s. Bagley, Mrs. S. W. F. Andrews, Miss May Thompson, Mrs. D. W. Futile, Mrs. c. Brooks, Mrs. H. Walter Chidsey, Miss Ella Thompson, Mrs. w. H. Chidsey, Mrs. J. s. Tyler, Mrs. Horace Dykeman and Mrs. Louisa Bradley.
 The banquet tables were beautifully ornamented with roses and flowers. Mrs. Grace Bradley, former resident of the East Haven schools, sent a bo- quet of roses cut fresh from her flower gardens in Jacksonville, Fla, but it did not reach it's destination in time. Deli cacies from the tropic and temperate zones, and from the sea, were in abun- dance. A souvenir of the occasion is a photograph of the guests taken by MT. Leopold

poll,s Wonderland Theatre.

The idea of running continuous show on holidays, which Manager Poli has made his practice, is apparently an excellent one, for the box office was kept busy from 12:3O in the afternoon to a late hour last night by the Wash ington birthday crowds who visited the Wonderland. The show we'll repaid them for the visit, and in one of the features aroused the patriotism of the audience to degree that shook the house. Miss Adele Purvis Onri who is correctly entitled "The Queen of the Air." concludes her act with evolutions on the moving globe, introducing a brilliant serpentine dance. During this dance pictures of MT. Bryan, MT. Me Kinley, President Washington, the ill., fated Maine, Cuba's flag, and last, but not least, "Old Glory" are thrown on the floating gauge of the dancer, and the crowd cheers until the effect is tre- mendous.
 A fine reception was given to the comedy drama, My Father" present. ed in excellent manner by Jessaline Rodgers and Fred Boch.
 La Petite Oracle, with her clever i'm itations of Anna Held and other celeb rites, is really wonderful for child ot seven years. Others in the bill arc Lelliott, Busch and Lelliott, Goggins and Davis, the Acaris, Ida Russell, Al Fields and Belle Stewart and Weston and Bennett in illustrated songs.

costumes, of which she is justly proud and which are sure to prove pleasing surprises to her audience. The closing bill tonight will be the great play Doris" made famous by Effie Ellsler and in which Miss Rober appears by special permission of the author, Rob- ert Droutt.

 THE CHAIN OF DESTINY" The play has a strong plot and coun- ter plot, and an absorbingly interesting story; also the piece is written in a prologue and four acts-it abounts In thrilling situations and startling denou- ments, and the attention of the auditor is held throughout, so well woven is the story, and it is well told by capable company. It will be at the Grand opera house Thursday, Friday and Sat- urday, with matinees as usual Friday and Saturday.

 KELLAR AT THE HYPERION.
 Prof. Kellar is undoubtedly the best magician in the country. Hermann alone was his equal, and since his death Kellar is in a class by himself. His per- formance at the Hyperion last evening was up to his usual high standard, and was thoroughly appreciated by a large audience. He was assisted by Mrs. Kellar. whose feats of memory were wonderful and impossible to the ordinary brain in it's normal condition. The entertainment was enlivered by the numerous sly jokes about the spir- itualists and their seances which Mr. Kellar kept making and the distribu- tion of roses to the ladies was much appreciated.
 COAT OF MANY COLORS."
 In "The Coat of Many Colors," which is at the Hyperion Saturday matinee and night, Miss Fife Shannon, the gift ed actress wears a number of very beautiful gowns. The coat worn by Miss shannon is of foreign cloth, a soutache in a tan shade, to match the gown, with lining of deep rose silk to match the lining and touch of color in the travelling gown The prettiest is the pink one worn in the second act. Miss Shannon's pink gown is of silk, in alternate checks, plain and crinkled, that at a distance has an all-over crinkled effect. But 1t is in the bodice, which is particularly pretty, with it's pink chiffon and heavy white lace. The lace forms the bolero, which opens as a smart bolero should, upon the side. The bolero is cut little low at the neck to show the finest of plaitings and little double ruffies of the chiffon in front of the waist. Down the opening of the bolero and around the lower edge is a plaited f1ounce of chiffon, edged with those tiny ruffies which give a delight fully soft finish. The little muslin gown worn in the last act is one of the soft indescribable Eastern effects, with black velvet bows and a charmingly soft library silk lining of yellow, which is worthy of a more conspicuous posi- ton. Cleans of 1t show through the muslin and it is matched by the course yellow straw in the wide rim of the big hat worn with this gown. Sale of seats now open. Prices: Matinee, s1, 75c, soc. Evening, s1.50, s1 and 75c.
 WILBUR OPERA co.
 The contest for the supremacy as to prices to be charged during the en- gagement of the Wilbur Opera com- pany at the Hyperion during the week of February 2S, is not over. A. l.. Wilbur has 8 contract to play with G. B. Bun nell in New Haven. Part of the con- tract provides that MT. Bunnell is to furnish the opera house. Mir. Wilbur holds him to that agreement, but this does not restrict Mr. Bunnell from reg ulating prices. The most extreme eve- ming scale of popular prices, 10c, 200 and soc will prevail during all of next week. Daily matinees will be given for the benefit of ladies and children. Fourteen hundred seats will be sold for ten cents.
 MT. Wilbur threatens to cancel the date, but MT. Bunne11 will not enter tain such a threat, and is determined to have his own way and give the pub lie good comic opera at wonderful low price.

A woRDY "sCRAP."

On Thursday night. when Comedian
Kennedy came before the curtain at
the Grand opera house to make his noe
turnal announcement, he made refer
ence to a travelling man who occupied
a seat in the theatre and read paper
during the performance. Mr.. Kennedy
berated him for so doing, telling him
that he did not possess any brains.
The drummer made n poignant retort,
saying: Come down of the stage
and apologize to the people for being
on IT," The two INDUCED in colloquy
which. II must be said was decidedly
undignified for the actor to indulge in.
The salesman left the theatre in dis
gust and waited until Kennedy came
out to Hotel American, where he is
stopping. Here a wordy scrap ensued,
but the participants did not come to
blows. Friends interceded and the
drummer. who felt piqued, swears he
will vet get even with the comedian.
