Newsboys at the Grand.

Newsboys at the Grand.
 Last evening the Register arranged to give the newsboys treat. Accordingly the galleries st the Grand Opera House were secured and each of tho five hundred little fellows as they came along was pre- sented with a bag of peanuts, to keep up the reputation of "peanut gallery" and g package of Waltzinger's celebrated can dies. They were as orderly, quiet and we'll behaved little fellows as one often sees, surely in favorable contrast with the noisy students that usually frequent the house. In one of the boxes were Colo nel Osborn aud Colonel Morgan, with two other gentlemen. The boys seemed to en- joy the show and went away delighted with the Registers entertainment. We rather fancy that most of the newsboys will jay more stress than usual upon Reg ister" in the familiar cry of their papers hereafter.
 The play was good one, in which Miss Ullie appeared at her best. The newsboys very much enjoyed her dancing, which is really quite artistic, and heartily ap- plauded the songs of the Junior quartette. Miss Akerstrom is well supported and fully sustained the reputation that she has already gained in this oity.
