“‘The Connie Soogah,’ revived by Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams at the Winter Garden, although pretty well placed on the stage and acted, failed to awaken any fresh interest, or to attract large audiences during the past week. As it is at this house so it is at nearly every theatre—a general falling off in the prosperity of theatricals is observable, and we can hardly look for any improvement before next season.”
