With this engag cement at this popular

better proof of the merits of this
charming play could possibly be

popular prices and the patrons Of the
Grand will have an opportunity of seeing
this high-priced attraction at the legu-
production will be the same intact as
seen in this city at the h!gh-prieed theater
before, the cast being exactly the same

The obvious elements which enter into

great station in period OF change. who
leads his country successfully through a
time of crisis; who. by his power of per-

able to command the best thought of his
age, so as to leave his country in a moral
or material condition in advance of where
he found it-such a mans position in his
