It is quite a time since the patrons
 of the Grand have been treated to such
 an excellent variety performance as
 that which was given by Hyde's Com
 edians last night. MT. Hyde has gath
 cred together a number of very clever
 performers, many of which are new in
 this city, and they all have number
 of original and up-to-date acts. This
 excellent performance is opened by
 Burton & Brookes, very clever team
 with a number of up-todate gags.
 The appearance of Mr. Bleurtin was
 greeted with a storm of applause. It
 is number of years since a New Ha- ven comedian has had the opportunity
 to this original Hebrew impersonator. He has very clever skit entitled
 Samuel at the Herald Square Hotel" in which he is assisted by Albina De Mer. A very clever team of colored
 belles, the Nichols sisters, sing num-
 Der of very pleasing songs. Helene Mora follows with new songs and her special scene entitled "The Cloisters." She sings a number of songs and she
 fully deserved the applause she re-
 ceived. Among her songs worthy of
 special mention were "The Holy City"
 and '"The Navy" The musical Colbys
 next entertain with a refined musical
 act introducing two very clever chill
 dren. The boy in his makeup of Sousa
 was very good One of the biggest hits
 of the performance is The Holloway
 trio, an exceptional expert team of
 slack wire walkers. Their performance is one of the best ever seen in this city.
