'Thc Wizard of Or Opens Notable
 Engagement To- night,

It is not hard to understand why The Wizard of OF" which is to be seen at the New Haven theater tonight. Friday and Saturday nights, and at the matinee Saturday for the first time al popular prices, is so popular since it possesses so many qualities that are pleasing both to the eye and car. There is never a dull moment during the per fcrmance. If the audience is not con vulsed with laughter at the antics Q. the comedians, there is a stage full of pretty girls cr there is a realistic cy- clone or snowstorm like the genuine article that if quite surpasses anything else ever attempted in stageland.
 The curtain rises a and D. m. sharp The Boston Herald says of this production:
 As The Scarecrow,' George Stone is wholly delightful He carries the farci- cal side of his part with an ease that is pleasing. and at no time appears to be straining or overdoing to win ap- plause. His style of amusing is sui ficiently variable to avoid being wear isome, and he passes quickly from broad fun to a quiet humor.
 Another member of the cast who is a delightful entertainer is Minerva Gov erdale as Dorothy Gale She is espec- tally vivacious and buoyant. and pre- sents her role in manner wholly girl ish. frank and naive, and at the same time with grace.
 Nor in the distribution of praise should Lillian English he forgotten Her Cynthia Cinch was a ply strong inpersonation. and oftentimes she read her lines with a meaning and a feeling that rose above the level of the surrounding atmdsphere
 4 word should also be spoken of the beauty of the setting and the costum. ing. This, combined with the genial humor and the rather bright music, made the tertlinment very enjoyable

GILBERr.s sHbw GOOD.
Bewilders an Enthusiastic Audience
 With His Illusions.

BeWildering an enthusiastic au- dience by his mystifying illusions Gill bert, assisted by Madame Darsone and Will Green, made an impression that will long be remembered by those who enjoy an evening of startling revela- tion of the possibilities of the we'll nigh impossible. They were illusions, none denies that, but where and when the means to the end came in was a baffling puzzle that was jealously hid den. All the tricks were fine-super latively so. In the beginning of not few the audience would settle back, thinking it was the same old story, but just there is where they were de- ceived. for there always was some thing new forthcoming. something no other magician had attempted and been successful in. And Gilbert was pre- -eminently successful. This touch of the mysterious, that bit of decep- ton, all calculated to minute detail and devised with an ingenuity that ut- terly defied detection. All possible communication seemed to be cut off when one of the audience would do the trick, but it worked just as we'll and provoked merited and boisterous applause.
 First one was bewildered by host of handkerchief tricks, one running into another with such rapidity that it was almost impossible to keep track
 r.. disappeared as weirdly as they came into existence, and the house went up f in thunder
 Then, for the first time, every one saw the Hyperion stage turned into an impromptu mint, Coins floated about in the air only waiting to be plucked and then hurried on their way again.
 Then Madame Darsone was brought to light, strangely found in barrel by the Diogenes illusion. Her second sight was a revelation. All her ques- tions were cleverly and originally an- swered to the satisfaction of all. She l told of numbers thought of, and then added four columns written on paper These were the most surprising sec ond-sight sensations.
 Then came the twentieth century magfc-clocks and bells. To end up very enjoyable evening Gilbert, aft CT escaping from handcuffs and chains, squirmed out of an endless mass of knots, and the curtain fell with clever exposition of Indian i club-swinging.

COUNTESS IS FREE
Alice Thaw's Marriage to the Earl of Yarmouth
 Annulled.
PROCEEDINGS IN SECRET
Hearing Lasts But a Half Hour and the Case is Not Con
 tested.

London, Feb. 5.-Sir Birrell Barnes, president of the divorce court, to-day granted the Countess of Yarmouth who was Miss Alice Thaw of Pittsburg, a decree nullifying her marriage to the Earl of Yarmouth.
 The case, which was heard in private was practically undefended, and the hearing lasted for only half an hour. The countess, attired m a fashionable black gown, was present, but the eari was not.
 Only four witnesses were examined. They were the countess herself, her maid, doctor appointed by the court, and an American lawyer, who proved the marriage.
 The countess gave evidence in sup port of her allegation that she had been deprived of her rights as wife while the maid testified that the earl and the countess had been living as man and Wife. Subsequently counsel for the plaintiff pointed out to the judge that Il was within the discretion of the court to annul the marriage if clients con tcntions were proved.
 The Earl of Yarmouth did not de- fend the case, his lawyer satisfying himself with pointing out that the evil dence of the doctor removed any stigma placed upon the earl by the evidence Of the plaintiff, and that there were no grounds upon which the countess could have sued for divorce.
 The judge pronounced his decree an nuling the marriage without comment In the ordinary course of events 1t will be made absolute in six months. No mention was made of a marriage settlement, and 1t was learned from all authoritative source that, contrary to certain published statements, the ques- ton of revising the settlement has not been discussed by the principals or their solicitors, and that it Is not likely to be discussed
 This change from the previous deter imitation to contest the case is said tc have been influenced by the evidence given recently in New York at the trial of Harry Kendall Thaw, brother of the countess, for the murder of Stanford White, with regard to insanity in the Thaw family, as well as by the verdict of the jury that Harry Thaw was in- sane when he committed this crime.
 The Hertford family. the head of which Is the Earl of Yarmouth's father to whom the earl is heir as eldest son of the sixth marquis, Is one of the old est and proudest of British nobility The Marchioness of Hertford stood by her daughter-in-law throughout her troubles. and exerted herself to recon cile the couple. but in vain
