Grand sspera House

One of the favorite plays now before the American public is Bradley Camp bells "The White Slave" which was presented for a return engagement at the Grand opera house last night, and will be repeated tonight and Wednes- day night and matinee. This play has been out for several years, but still it is ever new as the story depicted is one which never fails to awaken the dor mant interest which may be found in the human soul. It has increased in popularity since it's initial production, with generous strides until now the name is almost a household one
 'sThe White Slave" was last night presented by a very strong company, and almost the original. Very few changes in the personnel have been made since it was given it's first public performance, and in consequence the production was one excellently given and brimful of action. While the story is somewhat sombre. yet there is all abundance Of fire and activity in the play which keeps interest at high de- gree, and the audience last night was well wrought up with enthusiasm. Be- side the melodramatic features there are numerous musical numbers which are splendidly given and introduced at opDortune times. The mechanical de- vices are novel and well worked up.
 On the whole the presentation of "The White Slave" last night was one of the most satisfactory performances os the season, and was attended by a good sized audience. There should be large audiences during the remainder of the engagement.
 A great scenic equipment is one of the requirements of "The Child Slaves Of New York and the prologue and -four acts show realistic pictures that are said to be marvels of stage mechan- ism; notably that of act III, which is the heaviest scene on the stage to-day. 1t shows an old, abandoned grain ele- vator on the banks of the Hudson river, standing grim and silent in the moon light--a picture ill itself of exquisite beauty. Real wood. brick and stone are used in it's construction. and it's total destruction, being literally blown to pieces by the harbor police patrol, using genuine rapid fire Hotchkiss guns, is
