The Grand

The Grand,
During the past week, the only time the
doors of the Grand were thrown open was on
Thursday night when Mgr. Capel made an
argument in favor of using Catholic text
bogos in the public schools.
w4LLACK's THEATRE co.
Tomorrow evening, Wallack's Theatre
company will begin weeks engagement at
the Grand. The company is first class, en-
bracing a number of well known dramatic
artists of merit and reputation. The play
which will introduce the company will be
Lady Clare, from the pen of Buchanan.
1t is successful drama, and cannot
fail to- hold the interest of even
critical audience. Moths will be the
bill for the last half of the
week. This drama was presented in the
Grand last winter, and proved one of the
most interesting of the season. OF this play
an exchange says
''The play with its rapid alterations of COM
edy aud pathos is unquestionably the strong
est in purely dramatic sense that has been
produced in this house in long time, and
there Is no doubt whatever that 1t will attain
most brilliant success. The play has GER
tain sensational quality, for which reason is
occasionally sacrificed, but this objection is
lost sight OF in the absorbing interest, the adj
mirable construction, the stirring incidents
and the powerful action. Indeed the whole
may be described as forceful and finished
applications which equally belong to the per-
formance.'
