An Excellent Performance.

One of the largest audiences ever
assembled in the Grand was present
last Saturday evening to witness the
production of "The Chaperons. -
Every seat was taken and standing
room was sold in large quantities
The opera was greatly enjoyed by all
and much enthusiasm was shown for
the especially good parts of the play.
The company contained a number of
excellent actors, but the queen of
them all was Eva Tanguay in the
character of Phroso. the girl dectec-
tive. Such bunch of strenuous life
is seldom seen in human form, either
male or feIaale, and it was accom-
panied by grace and charm that COM
pletely captivated everyone. Her
"Sambo" song and dance was one of
the finest things ever witnessed on
this stage and she was compelled to
respond to encore after encore. The
male chorus, "We're all Good
Fellows" also was obliged to respond
to several recalls.
