The announcement that the wonderful
young tagedan, Elihu r. Spencer, whose
burst upon lir metropolitan stage rhis season
has brought him VITA one bound into The
ranks of the first actors of America, will play
uu engagement i'm this town, means more to
shenandoah theaue-gocrs than would be
thought by % cuTsory glance. Mr. Spencer is
- believer in the eternal fitness of things and
insists that every play Ia his rcperloIe be
mounted and seemed iu a manner historically
accurate and therefore every piece of scenery
In his productions is au exact reproduction OF
the locality it is supposed to represent. 1t
will be readily seen that this requires the
outlay Of "a vast sum of money in scenery
costumes and properties and a large eSpei G.
euailed in carrying it through the country
The play i'm which Mr. Spencer will be seen
here will be put ON in cyac,ly the same
manner as in New York city and theatre
goers of shenandoah may once at ! asst have
the satisfaction Of gazing at thorough aud
complete metropolitan production.
