 THE AMERICAN THEATRE.
 The opening of the American Theatre last evening was grand success and the manage ment should congratulate themselves upon having so fine an entertainment and so at- tractive theatre.

The entertainment opened with very comical sketch entitled Brother Ben," participated in by John H. Byrne, Harvey Collins, Lou Sanford and John Keegan, who put the house in 8 good humor on the start MT. Byrne is the best comed- ian, excepting MT. Eldridge, who has been to the American for many weeks. Among so many good things as were on the programme it would be almost impossible to discriminate, still special mention should be made of Add Wea- yer and Nellie Parker, Alfred Liston and the four in hand but first and foremost was Press Eldridge in his Imaginable speciality turn, for while he occupied the stage laughter was holding both he sides. The evenings en- tertainment was brought to a very pleasant conclusion by very funny farce entitled Rehearsal" participated in by tho entire company. The show will be repeated every evening during the week and Saturday mat Anee.
