RAYMOND HITCHCOCK IN THE
 GALLOPER."


 Richard Harding Davis Farce Last
 Night Closes MT. Gilfllan's Connec-
 ton With the Hyperion
 J. R. Gilfllan, whose transfer to Worcester is noted elsewhere, pleasant ly terminated his New Haven position as resident manager of the Hyperion last night with the offering of Richard Harding Davis, farce, "The Galloper." The piece was especially written for Raymond Hitchcock, as it deals with the experiences of a war correspondent in the Graeco-T Turkish war, which the author reported for an American sym dicate. Of course there is a consider 1 able element of autobiographical inter- est in the play also. The plot itself, like the plots of nine out of ten farces that have been written since 'The Comedy of Errors" is of course built i up on a basis of mistaken identity, in | which the wrong man has to bear the burden of his counterpart's carvings on. But MT, Davis has done 1t much more cleverly than most The fortunes of the Galloper and his inipersonator, Copeland Schuyler; of an Irish soldier of fortune the Galloper has insulted, of an actress he has divorced, rich girl he is engaged to, and a Red Cross nurse that Schuyler has fallen in love with, t are hopelessly intermixed, and the muddle is strengthened out with such an abundance of laughable situations as to keep the audience guessing and grinning all evening.
 There was a big house, and it enjoy ed three hours of wholesome laughter, untainted by any of the suggestiveness which sulies a large number of like pieces now on the stage, Raymond

The mem- bership is between 300 and 40O-the largest in the history of the club-and there is also a waiting list. The finances are in excellent condition, the club not only being out of debt, but having sur plus funds invested.
 It is evident that the Lawn club is destined to continue as one of the pop- ular institutions of it's kind in the city, and it is not unlikely that it will even- tually become a much large institution. embodying features common to casinos similar to those of other and larger cities. The management is to be con- graduated.
