HOOK AND LADDER ENTERTAIN
MENTS.

On Thursday and Friday, Oct. 2 and
3, the GAINESVILLE Hook and Ladder
boys give two more entertainments,
which will, in all probability, be the
last they will appear in. This being
the case, our citizens should turn out
en- masse and give them a crowded
house both nights. The young gentle
men have..always pleased their audi
ences heretofore, something that can
not be said of every entertainment
that''comes off.
Their programme for the next con-
eerts promises to surpass any attempt
they have hitherto made. First, they
viii present " Monsieur Tonson, a
piece that is uneqnalled. In this, the
cast of characters is unusually good
and one with which the audience will
be delighted. They also play ireland
as it is" This is an old Irish drama,
and is undoubtedly one of the best on
the slate. The features of this play
are not all in one character-the parts
are all good, and each performer can
find room and opportunity for full dis
play of his talents. Dan O'Carrolan,
as the leading character, will undoubt-
eddy create a great deal of emotion
among his hearers, and will be sup
ported by the full strength of the COM
pany. "Old Dads Cabin will also be
presented together with other negroe
extravaganzas. Most delightful en-
tertainments may be looked for on the
above.named nights, and we hope this
last appearance of the boys upon the
boards may be greeted with an i'm
mense concourse of our fun-loving cit
liens
