GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Nothing that comes to Wilmington can
claim moro extensive following of those
who like stage entertainment that gives
them plenty of reason to laugh than g
bells, which will open ut the Grand
Opera House on Saturday, August 30.
Often US this combination OF farce comedy
gymnastics and general iollity has been
seen in this city, each passing season wit.
ncsses changes for better in its many
mirth-provoking scenes, and of course
this concession to tho public's appetite
for novelty, has not boon neglected In the
present instance.
The Byrns Brothers have lots of new
and funny business in addition to what Is
perennial of the old specialites and those
who can't find laughter in the ground and

the thousand and ono merry circumstances

find 1t in the dictionary.
Eight Bells in It's rejuvcnatcd state IS
one of the funniest works Of its class and
is thoroughly enjoyable. The play Is GER
tainly inclusive enough In tho variety of
amusement it offers in the course of an
evening 1t Is in reality burlesque, a
pantomime and q spectacular production
all in one All the former successes in the
way Of trick effects are retained and many
new things are added.
1t still presents the great revolving ship
scene, the trick wagon, the hustlng octo.
pus, the wicrd trunk and doors and chairs
and dozen other genuine novelties. Tho
case is well adapted to carrying on the fun
OF tho piece. 1t is needless to praise the
fine acrobatc work Of tho John Byrne
