ANNA HELDS'
LITTLE DUTCHEss

Olga, the Countess yon Hatzfeldt,
comes to the Grand soon for one
night in DeKoyen and Smiths .sThe
Little Duchess" There is a double
interest attached to this announce
ment. first because the Countess is
so well and favorably known as an
artist of note on the musical comedy
stage, and second, because the piece
itself is known to be one of the best
and one of the most charming now
before the American public. The
magnificent stage settings, the lights
and the music and the Partisan
gowns have made this attraction one
Of the most noted that the theatre
going public has enjoyed for years.
The all round merit Of the present
revival is vouched for BY Messrs.
Milton and Sargent Aborn, man
ayers, who have long been identified
with the musical attractions Of the
better class. There is long cast
lof principals and a beauteous chorus.

other cities, the Aborn conpany's
sumptuous revival of the famous
comic opera, ''Robin Hood" prom

Stall, Campbell Donald, Agnes
Stone, Meta Carson and Maurice

OUT OF THE FOLD
A STRONG DRAMA

1t is generally conceded fact
that the average repertoire company
nowadays is vastly superior to many
of the higher priced "one nighe
stand" attractions often inflicted on
forgiving public. Probably a
leader in its class through the middle
west is John A. Himmclein's I'm
peridl Stock company, which is bill
ed to appear at the Grand all of next
week. The company is too well
known to theatre-goers to require an
introduction and it is safe to predict
that the theatre will be crowded
nightly. The repertoire Of plays
to be offered is made up of standard
productions selected with due regard
for the wants of patrons whose tastes
il is always the aim Of the manage
ment to please. The bill announced
for the opening on Monday night is
sssOut of the Fold" and indications
are that the S. r. o. sign will be in
evidence early in the evening.
The vaudeville features Manager
Himmelein has provided for his
patrons this season are Of an order
above the average and consisting Of
a number Of novel acts that will be
seen at all the performances to be
given by the company here next
week. These have been prepared
with view of meeting the demands
of patrons who derive most enjoy
ment from this sort Of entertainment
and does not in the least conflict with
The dramatic performance. Mat
'lnees will be given Wednesday and
Saturday.

ROBIN 7HODD

robin Hood most famous of all
modern comic operas, is announced
as one Of the coming attractions at
the Grand. This ever-popular opera
the masterpiece Of Reginald De Ko-
ven and Harry B. Smith, holds the
undisputed record of all musical
works, both for the length of its
vogue, and for the amount Of money
it has attracted to the box offices of
America. II is a safe estimate that
over three million dollars-haye been
paid by the public for the many pre-
sensations Of robin Hood" and
still its popularity is as great as
ever 1t always appeals. for the ex-
ceeding beauty Of its music is only
equallcd by the richness of its humor

LITTLE DUCHESS

Ii has always been conceded thai
Anna Held's "1'he Little Duchess.
was the most expensive comic opera
production Of its day. As a matter
of fact. in point of outlay. nothing
has yet been done that surpasses i.
This season the Countess Won HAITI
feldt is using the Held production
in its entirety, and if the critics may
Be believed. is giving with her sup
porting company much better show
than that offered by the French
comedienne. The cast is large and
most adequate while the beauty

capable.

FLORENCE DAVIS
The PLAYER maid

Patrons of the Grand opera house
will doubtless be pleased to hear that
the management have booked Miss
Florence Davis in "Ihe Player
Maid'' for an early appearance. This
play and star won instant favor when
seen here last year, and the perform
ance still furnishes a topic of con-
yersation whenever local theatricals.
are discussed. This season the cast
has been strengthened and the play
equipped with new costumes and
scenery. Miss Davis will again be
seen in the title role of ''T'he Player
Maid.
