HYDerIon Thsater
 Dolly Warden" the tuneful comic opera hit, fresh from q run of twenty four weeks at the Herald Square the ater, New York city. was presented with immense success at the Hyperion last night. The popular playhouse was filled to its capacity with critical New Haven audience and they gave their stamp of approval by their rapturous applause and insistent demands for re-. petitions of exceptionally good features. The opera differing greatly from many of it's category, has a strong vehicle for the display of the many talents of Miss Lulu Glaser who appears in the title roll. It was certainly a happy choice of her managers to place Miss Chaser in a part so enlinently suited to her ability and she continuously demon- strates the wisdom of the choice. Pret- ty, petite. bright and vivacious, with good voice she kept the audience con- tinually with her and carried her part to perfection. Nothing was overdone.
 In the supporting company Miss N4ctSC1 l4ClS NCl tcI4L4AS DCCl NCAy LO1 tunate and the entire production is in keeping with her ability. The cast | while a small one is excellent. Miss Estelle Wentworth as Letitia Fairfax. a London belle possesses one of the best voices ever heard in comic opera in this city and she sings with perfect ease. In her song, "The Navy" in the second act, Miss Wentworth assisted by the chorus was obliged to respond eight 1 times All of the members of the com ] pany possess good voices and the chorus sung last night with precision, power and in such perfect harmony that they were recalled on many numbers. The music is new and of decidedly catchy nature.
 The costuming is elaborate in the ex- treme and was the occasion of many very complimentary remarks. The scenery is of the finest and the entire production is first class in every par ticular.
 Dolly Warden will be repeated to- night.
