1.-THE NEW EIGHT BELLS

The famous Brothers Byrne, the quar-
tette of fun makers, who have amused
so many people by their grotesque &C
robatic specialties will appear at the
Crawford on Wednesday, February "a in
the nautical pantomine comedy, the new
Eight Bells" Almost from the time
the curtain rises on the frs tact until it
falls after the last one, the audience is
looking and laughing at the Byrne
Brothers. Only one of them has any
thing particular to say. The other
brothers carry their part in pantOmine
The scenery of Eight Bells is con-
structed especially for these agile brothers
and they so sailing through the windows.
jumping headlong through the sides Of
the houses and tumbling through a trick
coach in the most reckless and startling
manner. The best scene is in the second
act when the interior of adjoining
staterooms on an ocean steamer is shown
to the audience. The staterooms are oc-
cupied by the Byrne Brothers, and while
the ship is rolling in the waves. they
introduce some of their best acrObatic
turns This act ends with a terrible
storm at sea. which rocks the ship so
much that she finally turns completely
over. and the inhabitants of the two
staterooms are whirled about in a way
that is most astonishing. There is
large cast of characters in the produc
ton of the new Eight Bells" and many
modleys, songs. dances, and limitations.
Some pretty and vivicious young wo
men figure in the entertainment and the
plot running through it is funny in its
situation.

ters that have been linked inseparably
with their names. The Jeffersons are
the most conspicuous figures on the
American stage at the opening of the
twentieth century; as they have been its
greatest artists in the last quarter of
the nineteenth century. There is some
thing about the Jeffersons and their art
that draws them closer TO the play-goers
and the general public's heart, than any
other actors ever drew This is especially
true of Joseph Jefferson, Jr., and VIII
liam w Jefferson. Their manner in life,
their all-around fondness for the ideal
and artistic. their public and private as
sociates. the gentleness and sweetness of
their natures, and the quiet and unos-
tentatious way in which they continue
to contribute to the glory and dignity OF
their profession, all recommended them
as strongly as the heart humanity and
poetry they can put in their irnpersona-
