Mach tu please the eye and nothing to tire the ear is the secret of the success of "8 Bella," the entertainment to be presented at the Graad Opera house, Monday evening next, March 29. Without exaggeratioD, the Byrne Brothers are presenting oue of the very best pautourimic aud aorobatic shows on the road. Trne, some of the features are uot uew, notably that representiug the cabin of tüe rolling snip, but the act is smooth and yet so coinical tbat it will bear repetition once a season. The Byrue Brothers are artists of the ürst quality. They are snpple aod graoeful acrobats and accoiupliahed pantotnimists. The entertainment is to be oommended for the good taste which marks every feature of it. The coetumes are appropriate, the soenery unique, and the dialogue reduoed to a minimum, thongh what there is of it, is always acoeptable. Theie are no coarse jokes, suggestive allusions or qnestionable prauks, such as sometimos spoil acrobatic performances. The incidental musió is pretty. The company is thoroughly adequate. The specialties are ingenious and amusing to a degree. No maudliu meloilrama Í3 introduced, and oonsequently there are no silly lines and paiuful situatious to endure. The John Byrne troupe of aorobats, give an act hard to duplícate.
