LOOKING OUT FOR HIS PATRONS
G. B. Bunnell Scores Point in Their
 Behalf

G. B. Bunnell Scores a Point in Theil
 Behalf
 G. B. Bunnell the manager of the Hyperion, ever on the alert to secure the best in the line of amusements fo1 New Haven and always looking out for his patrons, has again demonstrated his ability in that direction. The following conversation with him yesterday dem- onstrated that fact and brought out an interesting incident in the theatrical business:
 How are you, MT Bunnell? ?"
 How do? Sit down"
 How is business?"
 Well, I can say truly I am all right and business, too, this week; but next week I can't just say how it will come out. Just see here-the presumption of a woman because she is a manager and actress. She wires dictating my end of the business. Here is the message:
 " Bridgeport, Conn, Dec. 26, 1899. Manager G. B. Bunnell, Hyperion Theater, New Haven, Conn:
 All nonsense prices being ten, twen- ty, thirty New Years. Not hundreds, but thousands, turned away here yes terday. Orchestra on stage first time in history of house. Must insist on higher prices.
 SUSIE KERWIN.' And the following Is my reply:
 " Hyperion, Dec 27. Dear Miss Kerwin-Muc, as I need the money, I will not submit to your dictating my scale of prices, but stand ready to do the fair and square business and abide by my contract and protect my patrons. Your trademark is the Wilbur-Kerwin Opera company and Living Pictures, and unless you can convince me that you have a much greater and more expensive company than Wilbur's, which plays here in March, I shall carry out thne same scale of prices. Very respectfully,
 e. B. BUNNELL.'
