"a MIIlionaire's Wife"

The Lyric theatres next production
will be the we'll known eastern sue
cess. "a Millionaire's Wife" which has
had phenomenal runs in the larger
cities of the Atlantic coast.
AS to the plot of the play it is suffi-
cient to say that it is strung together
with the golden thread of love and full
of sensational suspense and interest,
and affords ample scope for some lurid
situations. The play itself is very in
teresting. dealing with the home life
of young millionaire who is only too
fond of society, neglecting his wife who
devotedly loves him. but is more fond
Of home life than the strenuous life of
entertainments of the four hundred.
Through the scheming of a cold. de-
signing woman husband and wife are
separated and he has her placed in a
madhouse. but i'm the end sees his mis-
take and they are reunited and all ends
happily.
William Balfour will play the mil
lionaire and Miss Margaret Pitt, the
wife, the leading characters. The rest
of the cast is in able hands. and a good
performance throughout is promised.
This company has now established
themselves as capable. conscientious
players, gaining popularity at every
performance, of which the enthusiastic
applause they nightly receive is con-
vincing proof and packed houses ought
to be the rule this coming week every
night and matinee.

"a Royal Slave"

The days of Macmillan in Mexico
were the last dying gasp of old world
monarchy i'm the new world. France
provided Macmillan with a splendid
court then abandoned him and let him
be led out by his enemies and shot. 1t
was a stirring time, and "A Royal
Slave" which opens at the Grand this
evening, is a stirring play. showing the
people and manners OF the day as no
history or novel has ever done.
While "A Royal Slave" is a play that
appeals at once to the intelligence and
the heart of an auditor, his eye has not
been forgotten. The scenes are all
painted from photographs taken in and
near the City of Mexico. especially for
this production. Among the most
striking scenes is a view of the valley
Of Mexico as seen from the gardens of
the Hacienda de Orc. near Chepultepec.
1t shows a distant view OF the City of
Mexico. and the lake of the FLOATING
gardens and in the far distance,
