HYpertOn Theater.

"The Ragged EarP' was most accep- tably presented at the Hyperion last night and was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. The plot was not an un- usual one for comedy drama, but the lines were full of that sparkling, sly Irish wit which makes an Irish play so enjoyable. Andrew Mack fitted we'll in the part of the Earl of. Kildare. As generous, noble minded fighting Irishman he was we'll received by the audience. His songs are beautiful and will remain popular as long as he sings them. His supporting company is of the best and there is no weak point in the cast. But Thad Shine and Jo- sephine Lovett were especially good. Little Miss Georgia Florence Olp, as Una Fitzmaurice, won the hearts of the audience as her first appearance. She was very natural and unaffected. The scenery was fine and won the ap- plause of the audience in each act
 The soft green of the Irish glens and hills were suggested in a very pleasing manner by the scenes of the first and

Excellent Programme Arranged by the
 Committee.
 The Pequot day celebration, which occurs to-day at Morris Cove will, it is claimed by those in charge, surpass all previous affairs of a like nature in every respect. Besides the decorations at the hotel every cottager has receiv- ed an invitation to join in the celebra- tion by decorating their houses and lawns and many will accept the invi- tation. It is expected that every cot tage will be brillinantly illuminated at night The races of the afternoon will be one of the features of the days amusement programme. Boat, tub, ob- stacle, swimming and foot races have been arranged. The children will be given chance to participate in many of the festivities.
 The American Second regiment band has promised to play one of it's best concerts, and 1t will be there from to o'clock. Dinner will be served to guests at o'clock. In the evening there will be grand illumination and a magnificent display of fireworks from to o'clock, after which dancing will be in order until Il o'clock. There will be special cars for the acconmoda- tion of New Haveners.

Grand Opera House.

About the most versatile comedian in the black face line is George Evans, now playing at the big theater in Crown street. His makeup is the most ridiculous combination of misfts ever seen on the stage, but his continuous flow of bright witty sayings and stories which he rattles off at a 2:03 clip make him the great favorite he is. MT. Evans style of humor is original and very refreshing. Hia songs are queer parodies on the latest popular melodies. His humor is spontaneous and the audi ence is laughing in spite of itself
 'Mulligan, the Fiddler the title of the twenty minute comedy presented by Conroy and Mcponald, is series of highly amusing pranks and oddities, the best of the kind of Irish funnisms. The cast is as follows:
 Mulligan, the fiddler. John H. Conroy Tommy Riley .... Charles M. Mcdonald
 Johnson, Davenport and Lorella, the football players and the farmer, are re- markable acrobats, at once original and entertaining. The comedy, "A Wife by Advertisement" presented by Hugh SldHlOu dIu TdulOllc, ID UIlS Ol LHC pCSI comedies seen here in a long time. 1t belongs to high class order of the re- fined skits of the vaudeville and the funny complications arising from the misunderstanding of an advertisement.
 The sweet singing by Bryant and Elton is feature of the performance. One has a clear soprano of good com pass and the other a powerful oontral- to. Both sing musically the sweetest melodies. Edwards. Kernell and Will Hams in their comedy, "A Night Out" were we'll received at both perform ances yesterday.
 A strong number on the programme was the cornet solos by Miss Dewitt. She certainly is an artist in the wind tanning line. The Gleesons introduced a novelty in the dancing line that was of interest to all lovers of this particu- lar style of amusement. The Melrose Brothers appeared in a nerve testing acrobatic number, which won for them the title of champions of America. Popular prices prevail at the Grand and during the season ladies will be ad- mitted to all parts of the house for ten cents. Bicycles checked free.

THE FOOD FOR TROOPS.

For troops in garrison, the regula- tions provide for one hundred men 125 pounds of fresh beef, or 125 pounds of fresh mutton, or 75 pounds of bacon, or 137 pounds of salt pork; when it is not possible to procure any of these, 87 pounds of dried fish, or 112 pounds of pickled fish, or 112 pounds of fresh fish. In breadstuffs, 112 pounds of flour, or in lieu any one of the following: 112 pounds of soft bread, 100 pounds of hard bread, or 125 pounds of cornmeal and pounds of baking powder.
 The same number of men also re- ceives IS pounds of beans or 15 pounds of peas, 10 pounds of rice or 10 pounds of hominy; 100 pounds of potatoes are supplied; though sometimes the amount is reduced to 80 pounds and 20 pounds of onions added, or the issue will be 70 pounds of potatoes and 30 pounds of canned tomatoes or cabbages or beets.
 The same one hundred men get 10 pounds of green tea or 8 pounds of roasted coffee, pounds of tea, 15 pounds of sugar or gallons of molas- ses or syrup, 1 gallon of vinegar, pounds of salt, A pound of pepper.
 Troops on the march are obliged to accommodate themselves to reduced ration, and their haversacks at times are the only larder, and all they boast is hard bread, bacon, coffee, sugar and salt. These ingredients, by means of a tin mug, tin plate with handle to make it a frying-pan, and its cover, they must make into food to keep soul and body together till something better is furnished.-American Kitchen Magazine.
