Arizona found from the first a warm reception from the down east theatre goer. Mr Thomas, after that refreshing innovation Alabama, naturally cast his eyes from the cotton fields of the south to the cacti blooms of Arizona. The eyes of New York had become tired with looking at the eternal heroes procession of patent-leatherand animated Worth gowns the ears of the metropolis had grown weary with the perpetual hot air bombardments of vapory love from the lips of cute but harmless cupids. The soul of Broadway cried out with weary ennui against the multiplying increase of Romeos in full dress, and Juliets almost drowned in billowy lace. No wonder there was an opening of arms to receive the new found hero from Arizona, his hoots jingling with spurs and his head buried in a sombrero. A new Lochinvar had come out of the west a knight from the cattle range riding in a cloud of sand dust. To our western eyes there is nothing new in this border drama of VIOLA ALLEN. Augustus Thomas.

The nig Parade II months wifh a dozen big burnt-corwaves and the sky has been overcast with a dozen dark clouds of minstrelsy. But the Barlow boat is riding the troubled waters like a duck on a mill pond. Minstrel shows all look alike and then again they dont look alike it depends, for one thing, on the point of view. We have, however, looked at a minstrel show from every point of view and although we, of course, note the unfailing resemblance of all, yet We also find that each excels in some particular feature. And it is because of this wise discrimination among our theatre goers that every burnt-cor- k organization receives liberal patronage. One can slip into the Grand and pass two hours of good healthy fun without knowing, or caring, what has become of the time. Special care has been taken that the first part shall create a favorable impression. It forms the natural vehicle for tbe introduction of the latest songs and affords the end man an opportunity to spring his latest jokes. The Barlow end men know how to jar an audience all right. They have a fresh consignment of funny sayings every night Nearly every one is a bright new coin from the mint of humor and will purchase a good laugh in any market in the world. Lew Baldwin, the comedian, keeps things coming his way and letting them go again with such rapidity that it is a case of swim out or die in convulsions. To watch Baldwin work his ivory is a sight in itself worth a piece of money. The dlio following the first part is a bright mixture of dancing, singing and clever turns. Stevens and Daly, the buck and wing dancers, get warm applause for the nimble manner in which they handle their feet. The musical specialty of Coburn and Baldwin is one of the best features of the program. Olivio, the Dragon, introduces a feature which is altogether startling. The way he plays with fire, spits flames and converts himself into a chimney of smoke and sparks, is enough to win the heart of any insur- ance man in this town. Altogether a pleasant evening can be passed by seeing the Barlow Miastrels. The matinee this afternoon and performance tonight ends the engagement. ft -- ft Too Rich to Marry, the farce which appeared early in the week at the Grand, proved one of those farces in which the title and the play part company in the first scene and become more hopelessly estranged with each" : succeeding act. Just why the farce is called Too Rich to Marry would require litigation and the summoning of Furnishedwitnesses to determine. Rooms or Willie, the Landlord., would have been a fitting title and retained our confidence like the word Mumm on a bottle of 'extra dry. It is a misfortune, however, that so many farce comedies sail under title flags which reveal no clue to either ship or cargo. Too Rich to Marry. is, on the wliole, a bright and breezy. comedv and its title, the worst thing about it The company contained some , merit and some demerit. Ed. Redmond, the Dunkard, did his pait well, as the subdued husband in the presence of Caroline, and the gay hoy wnen she was out of sight. Miss Brink, as the prim and proper Dunkard wife,. left nothing to oe desired in- the way of matrimonial' propriety.
