THE OPENING.
A Large Audience and all Well
Pleased.

A Large Audience and all Well
Pleased.
The theatrical season for 1889 and
1890 was opened last night at the
Grand by the Goodyear, Cook and
Dillon Ministries. The house and its
arrangement was all that could be de-
sired and the ushers worked so well
that not a complaint was heard. The
performance was given straight
through with no intermission, which
rendered it rather a bore, but there
were many good things gotten off by
the funny men, several reall y meritor-
ious ballads and some fine miscella-
neous business, notably the double
banjo and dance by Leech Brothers,
which caught the house. Ellsworth
Cook is a very good male soprano and
pleased the audience, while Charley
Goodyear is a fair comedian, and
handles the Geo. Wilson business"
very well. George Edwards is also
good comedian and end-man and
Charles Schilling in his comic must
cal turn, pleased and gratified the be-
holders. The Nichols brothers are
very creditable gymnasts.
The matinee today is very well at
tended and the closing performance is
tonight. Manager Mutually is COM
on every side for his enter
prise in securing this company and
thus early opening the season ID the
amusement loving public.

"Oh, FrailtyI'

A young butcher living near the
Mill bridge was in trouble last night.
He came home for supper, found
none, the stove was cold and the
meat and potatoes were not cooked.
His wife was gone and he went after
her. He betoOk himself to the San
Pedro Springs where the Mexican
celebration was in progress. He
seemed to know where to look for his
wife, for there he found her, sitting
up, as he said, "in bad company"
He, of course, raised racket with
her and they came to town and she
applied to police officer to have her
husband arrested. They finally
made it up" in the station house and
went home together.

Mr.. E.F. Hoppe, OF the Lone Star
Brewery, was sitting at table at the
Springs Yesterday, listening to the
baud playmg. He sent a boy up to
the band stand to inquire what they
would drink in the way of refresh

is. usual when anyone desires to
treat" them, and inquired what tune
Mr.. Hoppe would have them play.
Mr.. Hoppe replied: Tell them to
play Nine Beers" and soon as the
drinks were served out rolled upon
the evening air one of Meyerbeer's
favorite compositions.
