ENTERTAINMENTS.
New Haven Thenter.


 Fron, tbe echoes of Metropolitan opinion tt must be inferred that in his four act play of California ranch and race track "A Race for Life to De produced by the P. H. Sullivan Amuse- ment company at the New Haven thester tonight, Tuesday and we'd nAsdav nights Theodore Kremer mas struck a big bonanza rom poti a box office and melodramatlc polnt o- view. The scene of action IS roman- ticallv laid in the wildly picturesque region. buttressed by the sierre NeVa- da mountains. admitting ot grand ana beautiful scenic effects, of which we are assured very accurate and artistic advantage has been fully taken. The plot and action are not overloaded with a superabundance of characters, and no doubles and dummies are intro duced to kill time and fill space Every member of an unusually strong and we'll balanced cast has thoroughly typical part to play, and one that is important to and intimately and &C., lively identified with the staged story. Hence, everyone is conspicuous in and capable of materially sustaining the many emotional and comedy and start ling and sensational climaxes, which keep the audience suspended between expectancy and surprise, sympathy and solicitude and thrills, ,tickles and tears. To a beautiful thoroughbred is assign ed leading part, which it admirably sustains by escaping unscathed from repeated villainous attempts upon its life, to finally save both its owners life and fortune by winning the Los An geles Derby. So far the play is herald ed as phenomenal winner from post to wire. Matinee Wednesday.
 "AT THE OLD CROSS ROADS"
 ''At the Old Cross Roads" will be presented here on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights this week with matinee Saturday at the New Haven theater in precisely the same manner that it was presented at the Grand opera house, New York city, where it scored a remarkable hit and succeeded in packing the big playhouse nightly during its three engagements.
 It is very taking story of southern life and the romance was written around and actual occurance, Bright comedy is well blended with the tragic story of the play, The company which is this year presenting the play Is con- ceded to be the best which has been seen in the piece, and contains many well known and well liked people num- boring twenty. The scenery for the production has been entirely rebuilt this season.
 The Hippodrome quartet has been engaged for the production.
