This ia eighth year of "Fiunigan's Ball" but like all other farce com- cdies it possesses that advantage which can be tounu in no other style of dramatic performance, the advantage of being changed from year to year, new specialties intro duced, new comicalities added. In fact, even the plot itself has changed about and still passes as The Ball." So it happens that those who have seen this famous farce before need not hesitate to see t airain, thinking that they are to sec the same old piece. On the con- Wary, it lias been entirely re-writ ten thia'ycar aud the author of the original piece would not find a line of his work. The entire plot of the Rtnrv has been changed and noth itw remains ot the old production pvwnt the title. The new niece if bright, tresh, lull ot the latent wit ticisms and newest music, and tfoes cultli n Hwluir aud dash thatnrom- ises to make its eiiiiu edition t lie most successful ol any that it has ever seen. 21 Yours a Dyspoptlc.
