amidst the greatest profusion of floral Of
ferings of all kinds.
At IL o'clock the Rev. Dr. Harding, rec

"a Boy Wanted .,

1t would seem that Blauey made
no mistake when he named his farce
a Boy Wanted The boy was at the
Grand last year and the crowds which
greeted him We're the largest of the
season and proved that he was wanted
pretty badly. Last night he appeared
on the same stage and the same desire
was manifested by return Of just as
large crowds as ever. This piece of
amusing nonsense is lust the sort of
nOndeseript foolery that the people
seem to like, and no other standard
need be taken for this judgment than
Mr.. Blaney's own criterion and that is
the laughing results on the crowd. It
is music, song, motion, noise, all con-
centrated for laughter Ed Heron
plays 1.-The boy and he is even better
than the man who played him last year.

the audience to the heroine. is in the Joke
except the major, and, possibly, for

rather a mild villain without being in the

He is there simply to give tone to the

plays the part, has introduced the some

sunshine of Paradise Alley"

Denman Thompson has name in
the American drama as a writer famil-
lar with types. In his Joshua Whit
comb and 1.-THE Old Homestead he
gave admirable samples of American
characters. In his Sunshine of Paridise
Alley he has given a new kaleidoscope
of familiar people. This piece was pro-
duced in this city first at the Lafayette
last season when it was believed that
it would have been more at home at the
Academy. Last night it received it's
second local prosecution, this time at the
Academy. The more congenial atmos-
plere was felt by both sides of the foot
lights. 1t was a much greater success
than last year, though most of the cast
is quite the same. The sketchy scenes
are all delightfully."- humorous and Sc
rious by turns, while music and dancing
and many domestic customs give a
color to the performance. The compa-
ny include Thos. E. Clifford, the bari
