THE BROTHERS BYRNE.
The Brothers Byrne with'a clever com
pany Of comedians, pantomimists and
young women, present their rollicking
acrobatic comedy, Eight Bells'' at the
Portland theatre on Tuesday and Wednes-
day. September and 8, with special
matinee on Wednesday. The play is a
musical farce comedy with spectacular
pantomime. Mr.. John Byrne is a mas

The school yard scene in the first act
brings the leader on the stage, and the
many escapades of the boys in trickino

The human ladder is very well con
structed and its combinations are most
apt; perhaps the dissolution of the won
derfuI horse and carriage in the first act
is the most amusing of anything. The
by-play of act second is en1ivened by 3
very pretty dance as well as some clever
grotesque dancing by members Of the
company.
The boat scene, however, caps the eli
max of this act, and the quick changes
from stateroom to stateroom makes lots
Of amusement. The revolving and final
collapse of the ship is an effect never
to be forgotten. The grand Roman statu-
airy in the last act is very effective, and
when they change to the statuesque poses
under the calcium lights they make very
pretty pictures. The aero patio feats, in
