GRAND OPERA-HOUSE,


Sardous greatest and most interesting
Opera-house. 1t is strong comedy. "Di-
plomacy" deals with female spies, and con-
sists of four acts Both the play and the
company were fully appreciated. The
scenery was excellent and the performance
one of the most perfect ever witnessed.
Mr. Fred. Warde's Henry Beauclerc" was
the most interesting role in the play. 1t
was, indeed truthful Interpretation of
more was natural, youthful, eager and sym
pathetic, and in the superb scene in Act
i'll, with "Dora," he surpassed himself, dis
playing power that we did not imagine he
possessed. As Dora" Miss George Drew
never acted better; she realized the young,
innocent, merry girl to the life, and in the
more dramatic scenes rose naturally to the
situation. The next best performance was
the ''Orlof'' of Signor Majeroni, who in
the mastery scene III Act ii, acted with a
skill that gained him liberal applause AS
Countess Zicka," Signora Majeroni dis
played abilities of high order. Her scene
with "Stein," in Act II, and that with
Henry" in the last act were admirable.

successful attempts of woman, who is des-
perately in love, to turn the affections of
