SHEN ANDOAH.

At the Grand Opera House, st. Paul.
New York, and with the most elabo-
given the play, shenandoah" under
the direction of Jacob Lift comes to
the Grand Opera House the coming
never before in the history Of theat-
ricals, has has war been so realisti-
cally presented upon the stage of a
theater as it is in the present instance.
None Of the spectacular features have
been omitted, and even so great mil
itary authority as General Nelson A.
Miles says: that it is the finest ex-
ample of a battle I have, ever seen
away from the genuine field of ac-
ton" Bronson Howard''s stirring
patriotic play needs no introduction
to local play-goers. It is the best of
all the war plays, stronger in con-
struction, better in dialogue and hui
NOR and more intensely patriotic. It
is the play for the hour when every
body is filled with swelling spirit
Of patriotism. The opportunities for
spectacular display are greater than in
any other play of its kind and these
Mr.. Lift has taken shrewd advantage
Of He has aimed to Guido all previ-
GUS presentations by celebrating and
charging the big military scenes.
Fully 200 people will take part with
a cast of exceptional strength and in
the battle scene there will be added
"a detachment of infantry, a troop of
cavalry fully equipped and mounted,
and battery of light artillery. All
Of the wonderful electrical and me-
chanical devices will be brought into
play, to make the signals and other
codes of war an exact duplicate of
those used in the regular army at
Cedar Creek, when Sheridan issued
his famous command to the Union
boys to "Turn the other Way!" That
is why this production is the greatest
military spectacle and the most per-
feet production of SHENANDOAH"
ever seen on any stage. When Bron-
son Howard wrote Shenandoah he
fully realized all the possibilities of a
beautiful love story and war trama
combined There is such blending
of the two that one ! forgets the
ferceness of the battle in the tender
ness Of the love passages. The com
pany which is engaged to present the
play is said to be the strongest organ
izatiOn that has ever been seen aside
from an all star cast. 81.
