A good sized audience witnessed the nerformance of Prom Sire to Son, by Milton Mobiles and company at the Grand Opera house last evening. The play is from the pen of MT Nobles who takes the leading part and is sup ported by very good company. The story of the play oenters around the life of one "John Oakly," who is falsely accused of murder and is unable to clear himself, as his vocal cords are paralyzed for a short time by the shock, but he ultimately recovers and seeks out the real villain.
 In the comedy part MT. Locke as "Dr. Mandrake" did well, as did also MT Courtenay in representing the doctors son. MT. Ready as Grimes" was worthy of notice. There were sew eral very effective and exciting situa- tions in the course of the play.
 The performance will be repeated this evening, when the company close their engagement here.
