AMUSEMENTS. QRAND OPERA HOUSE. The Home of Mirth and Melody. A Success of Enthusiasm Emphatic and Decisive. GEORGE STEPHENSON'S COMEDIANS In the Hugo Heap of Hilarity "FUN ON THE BRISTOL" "FUN ON THB BRISTOL" "FUN ON THB BRISTOL" The Merriest of Musical Farces. There can only bo one verdict in the case of "Fun on the Bristol"—oharged with reducing several countries to a jelly of laughter. GUILTY This Howling Farce played a xylophone symphony on the ribs of the audience. The theatro. is a study in .laughs. There ivero the staccato laugh, tho legato laugh, tho antomiser laugh that, played playfully down the back of your neck, the lioarsa laugh, and tho horse laugh, the donkey guffaw, the whistling laugh, tho extra dry cackle, and tho teary titillation that made an almost camille demand for handkerchiefs, as complication piled on complication, the side-plots, sub-plots, and inner plots attacked themselves to the twisted main stem—then the air was whipped stiff with chortle, tho stationary chairs rooked and tho olectric light flickered.
