The Grand.

Once more G. 3. Bunnell has control
of the Grand Opera house. Last night
Crown street was crowded with the
patrons Of the Grand from o'clock till
8 o'clock Standing room was at
premium Never in the history of the
| house has there been such a house as
witnessed the performance last night.
Mr. Bunnell had chosen for his first
night a piece which was one of the
great successes of the last season in
New York THE King of the Opium
Ring A phase of Chinese life being
so little known here in the east is the
theme of the play and fine scenery and
beautiful costumes given to a lot of
Oriental splendor. The horrors of an
opium Joint and the clashing cymbals
so dear to the Chinaman's heart, are
seen and heard in acts two and three.
The play closes with Chinese wedding,
most peculiar ceremony, the brides
costume surprising in elegance and
beauty anything Of our ways. There
are several specialties introduced re-
leving certain serious parts, the aero
batic acts being especially noticeable
Mr. L.aughney and Miss Magill as the
king of the opium ring and as Georg-
cite were especially good. King of
the Opium Ring will be presented to-
night and tomorrow night. There will
be a matinee tomorrow specially for
women and children, which they can
attend without escort, as every atten-
ton will be paid to their comfort and
protection. The advance sale has been
large and it would be advantageous to
those who purpose attending the per-
Torrance to secure seats in advance.
After the matinee tomorrow the Chi
nese children with the show will hold
reception to ladies and children on the
stage of the Grand.
AT the close of the first act Mr. Bun
nell made the following speech:
My Friends:
l am glad to say that all differences
between myself and Mr.. Moeller have
been adjusted. Mr.. Moeller is putting
in new chairs and many other good
things throughout the house and hopes
to have the seating all completed by
the regular opening of the season, Sep

M. Couard said that he was convinc-
ed that the handwriting of the horde.
reau was neither frank nor natural. and
the writer, in his opinion, probably
wished to initiate another persons

clared genuine by Esterhazy himself.
seemed doubtful to M. Couard who add
ed that he believed Esterhazy would
say anything he was wanted to say.
Since 1897 the witness had not believed
a word Esterhazy had said, and. he
pointed out, there was nothing to prove
that Esterhazy would not, a year hence,
say exactly the opposite of what he said
now.
Replying to a question, M. Couard,
while reasserting that the bordereau
was not the work of Esterhazy he de-
clined to commit himself in regard to
Dreyfus, whose handwriting, added the
witness, he had never been called upon
to examine.
M. Demange, of counsel for the de-
Tense asked the clerk of the court to
read the testimony of M. AtthaIin be-
fore the court of cessation in regard to
the genuineness of Esterhazys letter,
which M. Couard doubted, and the evil
dence of others showing how the letter
was seized and testifying to it's genuine
ness, which was done
M. Varinard, who with NM. Couard
and Belhomme acted as expert in the
Esterhazy case, was the next witness.
He adhered to his report that the Dor
dereau was not the work of Esterhazy.
and said that he persisted in his opinion
in spite of Esterhazy's statements to
the contrary.
Before adiourning the court fol- the
day, Colonel Jouaust announced that
M. de Freycinet, former minister of
war; NJ Gillichet and Colonel Cordier
would be examined tomorrow.
The government commissary, Major
Carriere, then said: II have handed the
court a letter regarding the health of
Colonel Du Patty de Clam. 1t indicates
that Du Patty de Clam is writing his
testimony, and that he will send it to
us. That deposition has not arrived.
l therefore ask the president of the
court to be kind enough to instruct the
reporter of the Second Paris court mar
tial to have the testimony of Du Patty
de Clam taken for commission"
Colonel Jouaust assented to this and
at 1850 o'clock the court adjourned for
the day.

The wedding of Miss Edith May Post
and Albert George Dillon will take
place on September at Christ church
Both are New Haven young people and
are well known. Miss Post is the daugh-
ter of Colonel and Mrs. George D. Post
and the groom is the son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. John c. Dillon. He is a graduate
ed in the Office of the Winchester Re
peating Arms company. Rev. G. Brin-
| ley Morgan, rector of Christ church,
will perform the ceremony, after which
a reception will be held at the Post res
dence, No. As Lake place.
The musical part of the ceremony
will be novel and impressive, and has
been arranged by the organist, William
| j. Kraft He has adapted for pro-
cessional words from the beautiful
hymn, THE Voice That Breathed Ger
Eden" culling from the whole version
the most appropriate parts. This will
be sung by the full surpliced choir of
twenty-five boys and twelve men, who
will sing it as they advance up the side
aisles, and turning, precede in couples
down the center in advance of the bri-
dial party.
The ushers will be Frederick Merwin

Post family will be the maid of honor
and sole attendant of the bride. Her
gown will be of a delicate shade of
pink moussellne de sole and hat to
harmonic will be worn with it. Her
flowers will be pink roses. John w.
Dillon, a brother of the groom, will be
best man.
The brides gown will be a charming
combination of simplicity and dalnti-
ness, in white organde, lace insertion
and ruffles. This will be worn over a
petticoat of inestimable value on 'ac-
count of its antiquity and associations.
Several brides have worn it, 1t was
made by Miss Posts great grandmoth-
er a century ago, but is as white and
beautiful as though just woven and
made. The fabric is the softest, finest
linen, the ruffle which finishes the edge
hand embroidered, the exquisite stitches
speaking eloquently of the hands which
lnterWove with each one a thought of
her future long since lived and become
ancient history. The sixteen narrow
and two broad tucks which head the
ruf1le, also made by hand, tell the tale
of the labor and pains bestowed by the

gifts.
beautiful imported hat to be worn
is of fine net embroidered in yellow
Tuscan braid, the full soft brim rolling
back from the face and is caught in the
front with jeweled buckle which seems
also to hold in place two half long
plumes of white. Brides roses will
form her bouquet.
On their return from a two weeks
trip they will reside with Colo
mel and Mrs. Post this winter and will
take up housekeeping in the spring.

THE ROGERS BROTHERS.

THE ROGERS bhOIf1EItS.
Klaw & Erlanger will present the
Rogers brothers in John j. McNally's
new play, 1.-THE Rogers Brothers in Wall
Street" at the Hyperion on Thursday
and Friday nights, August 81 and Sep
tember l. Rogers Brothers in Wall
Street, is much more pretentious, more
coherent, more consistent and more eX-
pensively staged than any of the many
previous productions by this author,
and in the matter of plot, construction
and humorous treatment, it may fairly
be called a new departure. The piece Is
really combination of American farce
comedy and French vaudeville. 1t Is in
three acts, and in the first act that ia
nous resort of New Workers, Manhat-
tan Beach, will be displayed as truth
fully and naturally as 1t was possible
for the scenic artist to accomplish on
the narrow limits of the stage. The
setting of the secnd act shows brok-
er's office on Wall street. In the third
act all the characters are taken to the
Hollywood at Long Branch, which is
said to be a marvelously beautiful, illu-
minated scene. These three scenes af-
ford good chances for many changes of
dress, and the chorus of pretty girls of
the Klaw & Erlanger type is presented
with fine effect. Seats now on sale

CATCHING BEAR CUBS.
Amusing Methods Adopted by Hunt
ers in the Yellowstone Park.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
The National Zoo at Washington is
supplied with many animals from the
Yellowstone National park. wlHre they
are caught young The park abounds
with all kinds of wild animals and
birds, from the hated and detested Eng
lish sparrow to the sly and cunning
mountain lion, but it. is unlawful to
hunt or molest them, excepting when
those delegated with authority capture
bears, elk deer or swan, or other gay
ly feather birds for the zoo in the ma
tons capital. The capture of the bears

methods adopted are so peculiar that
they will cause many to stop and think
twice before they believe what they

their mother, When espied by the
hunters, who are unarmed excepting
for large ak, couple of leather col
lars and several pieces of rope, the
iirst thing done is to get rid of the
mother bear, who scented the hunters
long before they saw her or her little
ones. That is not difficult nor dan
gerous task, but a very ludicrous one,
full of fun and excitement. As a usu-
al thing, one of the hunters climbs a
nearby tree, and armed with a long
pole, which was cut by his cOmpa Mons

dislodge the mother. This he does bv

hug the limb of the tree upon which she
rests all the tighter, and during the
time she rends the air with a peculiar
grunt, made by protruding the lower
lip several inches and forcing the air
from her lungs through the half-open
mouth. The cubs are not long in
scentinG danger, and they too, grunt
and growl, rolling their bead-like eyes
from side to side in tHror launching
their soft backs in their endeavors to
cling to the tree all the more securely.

soon cause the mother to shift her po-
sition from limb TO limb, grunting and

WHITE SLAVES IN HUNGARY
Peasants Harnessed to the Plough
Like Beasts of Burden.
From the London Mail.

From the LONDON Mail.
Stephen Varkonyi, the leader of the
PEASANTS revolution which convulsed
Hungary during the early months of
last year, has just been sentenced to
one years imprisonment for high trea-
son.
The movement which was inaugural
ed by Narkonyi was a revolt against
the remnants of serfdom which still
exist in some parts of Hungary. In
these districts each peasant is COM
PEELED to work fifty days in the year
for the land owner without pay.
These fifty days of compulsory labor
are not successive. or at fixed inter-
walls, but when the land owner has
work to be done he sends a drummer
through the village, and every male in
habitant is obliged to respond to the
summons.
ThereupOn so many men are/elected
as are required. The land owner al
most invariably exacts this labor iE
the summer when the peasants time
is most valuable to him.
In summer the peasant can earn as
much as one shilling a day; in winter
not more than fourpence or siXpence
In winter the peasants are compelled
to act as beaters in the magnates
hunts for wage of twopence a day
The occupation is dangerous one, and
the time is not counted in the annual
fifty days compulsory labor.
The wives of the peasants are re-
quired to sweep and scrub the local
manor house once week without pay
Finally, many land owners use the
peasants as beasts of burden, harness
ing four men to the plough instead of
two oxen.
stephen NarKonyi, who instigated the
revolt against these degrading cond-
tions of labor, is sort of Hungarian
Wat Tyler He is the son of poor peas
ants, was educated in the farm yard
and graduated in the fields.
He is quite a typical horny-handed
son of toll, is physically tall, stoutly
built, with plenty of character in his
shaggy head, and small eyes with
their suggestion of the Mongolian slit,
and has that rough kind of natural hu-
NOR that appeals to the simple peas
ant mind.
Varkonyi, whose power over the agri-
cultural population of his country is
unbounded, is one of the most interest
ing figures in modern Hungarian life.
