HyPtHhOH T HeHteE. DARKEST RUSSIA /"

D1aIshESI IL 0SlA.
 The Bennett & Moulton company pre- sented Darkest Russia to a large au- dience at the Hyperion last night and 1t is safe to say that the production was much better than it has ever been. as seen here before, both as regards company and scenery. The piece is founded on nihilistic plots and contains a sufficient number of exciting situa- lions to arouse the audience to a high pitch of excitement. It is seldom that such an excellent performance is given in this city for such prices, and there IS no reason why at both performances to-day there should not be large audi ences. Aside from the drama itself, the specialties which are introduced be- tween the acts are well worth seeing, They include two we'll known New Ha- ven fayorites, Miss Dorothy Kent and James F. Kelly; Miss Hattie Keane, Jo- seph Cary and Dan Simons. Between the third and fourth acts tke famous Wargraph is shown, introducing the lat est war and foreign views The central character, Alexis Nazimoff, was imper- sonated by J. Frank Burke. His nat ural ability is assisted by a graceful figure, and he offered a most acceptable presentation. James F. Kelly was in ms most humorous mood, and, besides him, the noticeable work was done bv Miss Kent, Miss De Haven, Miss Som- merVille and Miss Lora Rogers. Talk ing the production as a whole, it can be said that never has better popular priced combination been seen in this city, and it deserves a large patronage There will be special matinee to-day. at which My Partner will be present. ed, and tonight the attraction will be Bonnie Scotland" The prices are. Matinee, 10 cents and 20 cents; evening. lO cents, 20 cents and 30 cents.
 That Hoyt's "A Day and Night" was a pronounced success and left n most favorable impress ion with f heater- scers at it's last visit is pretty well evidenced by the brisk demand for seats in advance for it's return ea- gagement which takes place at the Hyperion next Saturday evening Many changes have been made in the piece and much that is new has beon added since the presentation here, the cast re- maining much the same, save for the addition of Charlse Agnew, Hattie Wells and a number of speciality peo- pie. Sale of seats opens Wednesday. Prices Soc, 75c and $1.
