PERRY'S BIORAMA.
A new and excellent" series of animated pictures was shown by Perry's Biorama Company at the Princess Theatre on July 3. In "A Trip Through Paris" the buildings on the banks of the Seine and the bridges spanning it are seen. The panstereorama of Lake j Geneva is picturesque, and the views of Lisbon while going up the Tagus in a steamer prove interesting. The sisters Eva and Id* Brady are seen and heard to advantage intheir duet, " Down where the morning glories twine," for which last night they were repeatedly encored. " Down^on the old Swanee" is sung with grace and pathos by Mise Eva Brady, and Miss Id* Brady's well-trained voice is highly effective in the rather difficult song "A thousand leagues." There are altogether 18 separate picture events shown — scenic, humorous, and pathetic. "The Watermelon Patch," besides being provocative of mirth, is an interesting study of the American negro, -while "Punch and Judy" is rather a «ad illustration of the ▼icisutadu at life Tho tataAuni&etQt is x
good throughout, and the - pictures on the sheet are remarkable for their steadiness. Perry's Biorama will continue for four nights, and a matinee is billed for Saturday afternoon.
