 "A PRINCESS OF KENsINGToN."
 At o'clock this morning the sale of seats for "A Princess Of Kensington" commences at the Hyperion box office. the engagement is for three nights and
 Saturday matinee commencing Thurs day evening next. The mere an- nouncement that the production is to be given by John c. Fisher should be suf- ficient to crowd the theater on it's open ing night, and that such will be the case is the candid opinion of Manager Bun nell Our theatergoers have come to regard Mir. Fishers productions "as the par excellence' of the musical presen- tations that annually come to New Ha- ven. Contrary to other productions made here by Mir. Fisher namely Flo radora" and 'aThe Silver Slipper" the cast of "A Princess of Kensington" may be said to be decidedly English,
 for aside from James T. Powers, who will play the ''star" part. that Of Will liam Jeff" a sailor, of H. M. s. "Albi- on" only two other Americans will be
 in the cast, namely, the noted tenor, Richie Ling, and the clever character actor, Walter S. Craven. Of the impor-
 tations Miss Dora d'Fillipe, who will sing the character of "Kenna, daughter of Oberon," comes to these shores with strong English endorsement. She has
 been prominent in many of the English comic operas for several seasons past. Other English singers will include the Misses Secil Engelhard, Amelia Fields, Julia Gloss, Lily Bircham, Nellie Elmer lad, Estella Ward, and Miss Angelia

 bastian Hitler, K. s. R. M., will cons
 duct the music, while Cyril Scott will
 have the stage productions. The au- thors, Basil Hood and Edward German, have often colaborrated in musical plays, but in this their latest effort they are said to have achieved one os the
 most pronounced musical plays that has

 mouth-on- the-Sea.'' The action occurs

These two subjects allows the scenic artist unusual opportunities for two beautiful stage pictures which 1t is said they have taken every advantage of As to the costumes 1t can be truthfully accepted that they. will be as handsome in ingenuity of design and extraya- ganee in material as money can pro- duce. In word it may be said that MT. Fishers presentation will be given 1 in his own princely style. s-ss+s ? Everyone who admires humorous en- tertainment of a highly artistic kind, put together for laughter-creating pur- poses only and interspersed with bright music, clever spceialties and novel ideas presented by a great company noted for it's talent, will see an unusually sat- isfying one in Klaw & Erlangers pro- duction of Harry B.
