 On Friday evening the popular play of "An Arabian Night" will be presented at Goes Opera House. The New York Herald says of the play "Its situations are most comical, and every act is accompanied by almost con- tinuous1aughter from the audience Of the play as it is, all that can be said is that it is immensely funny from end to end, brimfuI of incident and mirth provoking dialogue, and contains matter enough for a dozen farces handsome toilets enough to stock a dozen milliners, and good acting enough to run all most any average play to success" The sale of reserved seats will commence at the box office this morning.

 dience last night, notwithstanding the dis agreeable weather. The price of admission to the pleasing entertainment of the 'tAnnex" proves 8 magnet which the public cannot re- sist The performing dogs delight the ladies and little folks. That funny Winston, Ever cit the magician and his mysterious bird cage, the 57O pound lady, the bearded girl, the white Moor, the Circassian beauty, the Imaginable baby elephant, and the entire con- bination, including the tattooed Greek, for ten cents.

 ALL THE RAGE.
 Tomorrow evening "AI the Rage" will be produced at Goes Opera House under the management of MT. J. M. Hill, Den Thomp- sons successful representative. To recount the amusing incidents and accidents, which require four acts and two hours and half of time to develop, would require more space than can be commanded this morning, and, besides, would take away the element of sur prise, upon which so much of their humor depends. Suffice it to say that the fun begins early and increases momentarily until it be- comes uproarious at the end. The situations and incidents are cleverly contrived, the char acters are strongly individualized and con- trasted, and the dialogue is thickly studded with bright sayings, quaint bits of humor and pungent satire. Tickets should be secured at the box office without delay.
 sALsBURY's TRoUBADoURs.
 This charming company will appear at Goes Opera House this evening, and a large audience will surely be in attendance. The Boston Advertiser has the following regard ing the Troubadours
 MT. Salisbury displayed great deal of ingenuity and 8 thorough understanding of play. The underlying idea of the piece is the same which was developed with so much suc- cess in the Vokes family's 'sBelles of the Kitchen" But in "The Brook" the idea is elaborated and intensified in rather striking way. It was a capital thought to show com pany of actors at picnic party, and then to put them through all their paces for the pur- poses of musical entertainment. Nothing that any of them can do or say under such circum- stances, so it be decent and entertaining, can be done or said inappropriately. And MT. Salisbury has made free and vigorous use of his materials. His selections are so lavishly made, and are all so good of their kind that the entire effect is that of originality. There is a certain amount of preluding and filling in with picnic incidents, but after the real fun gets fairly started it takes a rapid pace and goes on ''acceIerando," until at the last it is fast and furious. Here again MT. Salisbury is wise his auditors presently find themselves having jolly time. As the play progresses they sur render themselves wholly to the rollicking fun, which is served up with the intoxicating music of Ofenbach or Lecocq.
