Grand Opera House.
GrhnN Vpern VON"c. THE GAME KEEPER" WITNESS ED WITH PLEASURE.

\ At the Grand Opera House last even- ing Smith O'Brien presented his new play, "The Game Keeper" to very fine audience. The play is pretty TO- nance, the scene of which is laid in Ireland. It gives opportunity for MT. O'Brien to sing several songs, and he sings them very well indeed. He takes the role of the game keeper with ease, and as he is on the stage nearly all the time interest does not flag. In the company is delightful little girl. Baby Madeline, and she very intelligently and happily carries out her role and sings a pretty song. The ladies in the cast are especially good, and without overriding matters they please Miss Lowette Babcock as the game keepers sister certainly gave very strong in depreciation of her part Miss Clara Langley as Kathleen, the heiress, show ed ingenuity and resource. Another very excellent character was Johnny Drake, which was played by Thomas J. Smith His comedy Is keen but not boisterous.
 DAINTY DOROTHY LEWIS.
 After the long siege of farce comedy and drivel that has occupied the local stage for the past month it is with gen. uine pleasure we welcome the return of dainty Dorothy Lewis and her com- pany in Hal Reid's romantic tdyl "The Hearts of the Blue Ridge" The play is a sterling drama of rare merit, stray ing from melodrama to refined comedy and telling the story of North Caro- lima countain feud in an original and striking manner. The company is even ly balanced and gives a highly merito- rious performance. All who visit the Grand Opera House the last three nights of the week will feel amply re- paid.

 Next Thursday evening at the Fly perion Edward McWade's new war play, Winchester" will be presented. ] The title of the play indicates it's locale, i the scenes being laid at Winchester, | Va, in 1863 Naturally, the War of the Rebellion furnishes the basis of the story which Is a romance dealing with the love of a southern girl for a north ern officer Mr. McWade has construct ed drama of considerable merit The l plot is novel and so conceived and de- l yeloped as to hold the interest of the audience. John J. Farrell is cast for the part of Major Frank Kearney, the northern officer, and will no doubt be given an enthusiastic welcome by New Haven theater-goers. Miss Margaret May has been specially engaged for the heroine and in the last act she fig ures in daring and exciting ride for life, mounted on her famous horse Ma zeppa. Seats now on sale.

 Josef Hofmann Is coming to the Fly perion on Thursday night November 14, and will give one recital. Josef liOlIieili lS LII Oduly ODJGCllNe anu pidyS Bach as well as Tschaikowsky. He, too can be brilliantly rhetorical, but in the compositions of Liszt and the lat ter day pyrotechnecists. He has the right feeling for Scarlatti and is a sound Schumann interpreter, plays a Beethoven and Saint-Saens equally well, and, of course, Rubinstein as no one else It is this sympathy with the composers of such widely spread epochs and styles that makes Hofmann's play ing so grateful.
 MANSFIELD AS "BEAUCAIRE"
 Mansfield in new creation, and this time it is in a comedy This is the de- lightful promise at the Hyperion next Saturday night, when the great actor appears in his latest success, Beau caire." The play is described as an original comedy in five acts by Booth Tarkington and Evely Greenleaf Suth- erland, though there is more than latent possibility that admirers of the irresistible Monsieur Beaucaire" will find the whole of this novelette, acted out by Mansfield and his supporting artists. The comedy will enlist much larger company than might be expect ed. There are in the neighborhood of thirty speaking characters and nearly as many more players who assume the silent but significant roles of the fops and belles of fashionable Bath of Beau Nash's sovereignty. The comedy is dressed in the delicate elegancies of the Louis XIV. period, for, although Beau caire's royal cousin was king of France, he was monarch of all the fashionable world. The curtain rises at o'clock sharp. Seats now on sale. Prices $2.50 $2, $150 and s1.
