THEATRICAL.
Academy of Music.

Lawrence Grattan appeared last night at the
Academy in the dual role of DIR. Jekyl and MIR.
Hyde. The version of this famous play pre-.
sentcd last evening was written by Mr.. Grat;an
himself especially for the King Dramatic com
plny The house very well filled and by
the applause it plainly seen that the per-
formance gave excellent satisfaction. Mr.. Grat.
tan was at his best and his portrayal of that
ditHcut part Mr.. Hyde was all that could pos.
sby he expected ny the most eXactng audience.
His DIR. Jekyl was perfect and Mr., Grattan's
change from DIR. Jekyl TO Mr.. Hyde, that hideous
monster, made many OF the patrons wonder how
it was possible to make such complete change
without leaving the state. This afternoon "Lost
in London will be the bill and tonight the
great New York and London success, Sporting
Duchess" will be presented.
