OF REnsic.

1t is with great pleasure that the
management of the Academy of Music
the coming engagement Of
Otis Skinner and his NEST excellent COM
pany ali next week. Mr.. Skinner will
present Clyde Fitch's extremely dainty
comedy. .H.s Grace de Gralnmont."
Never in the history of European courts
has there been one where RIGHTEOUSNESS
and have been SO unbridled
as in England under the reign of Charles
IL. He was a "Merrie Monarch indeed,
the only excuse to be offered being pos.
sfbly the fact that his long years OF
exile and poverty caused, the moment
he assumed throne and riches. the ex-
IRENE revulsion of feeling. His Grace
de Granmont" tells the love story o.
two of the most celebrated people Of the
times; one. the Chevalier de GranlTnontt
the other. the beautiful Elizabeth
Hamilton, said to be the handscmest
woman of the English court, whom he
eventually married. The play ds charm,
brilliant, and the situations intensely
the company carry the complete produce
tion-are absolutely correct from a his
torical standpoint, for the dresses are
copies from paintings of the original
people portrayed in the play, which were
painted by Sir Peter Deiy, and which
are now hanging upon the walls of
Hampton Court Palace, while the seen
cry was painted entirely from models
obtained in London. Otis Skinner is too
well known and far too great a ~favorite
to need a formal introduction.
