[ portrayal that when, after having played a long season in New York and then going on the road with it, l he returned to the Metropolitan dis trict last spring, the foremost critics in New York went out of town to view it a second time and write new praise of the splendid work of a splendid artist. For his Marc Antony. splendid portrayal to begin with, has ripened and mellowed with re- petition until now it stands as one Of the great achievements of modern players.
 We have been fortunate here in Phoenix during the past two seasons i'll having many excellent companies visit us; but few of the really great productions come here. Julius Cae- sar" is probably the most elaborate and spectacular production of a Shakespearian play ever made on this continent. The scenery was painted after the designs by the late Sir Alma Tadema, the foremost of all modern authorities on Roman archi- lecture and customs. The Rome re- VeaIed here is not an unrelieved white marble city but Rome of exotic warmth, color and charm. Sir Alma Tadema always contended that the Roman life of Caesars day was strongly tinctured with Orientalism and this is the reason for the vivid cOlOring of the picturess.
 The company supporting MT.

To- morrow night the company will put op College Days" as their third of fering and there will be a change of bill again on Thursday night

 At the Hart theater the Fair Week features will be continued In addi- tion to the regular run of pictures | the Hart Sisters will continue their clever songs and dances and the pie lures will all be features.
 The new Mutual program at the Lion is proving the biggest kind of a winner. No better pictures have ever been shown at a Phoenix the ater. The music, too, is feature 1 here and beginning tomorrow night, 1 Monday, will be instituted as pen nant night. Tomorrow night every lady attending the Lion theater will be presented with a Phoenix pen nant and on every Monday night thereafter a pennant of some city or university will be given to each lady in the audience.
