The Fox brothers’ performances, “combined with the introduced variety attractions, the gorgeous scenery, rich and tasteful costumes, and the graceful dancing of the Rigl Sisters, have served to keep the patrons of the Grand Opera-house [sic] well amused since our last report. No change will, probably, be made in the entertainments until after the expiration of the holidays.”
