Irection OF George VI. Halliday. The

scenic artist. has constructed some
very pleasing effects and these will be
specially noticed during the entire
week.
For the last half of the week the
great sensational melodrama, The
Queen Of the White Slaves will be the
bill. This is susceptible of some great
scenic effects and the artist3will have
something very fine in that line.
There will be the usual matinee Sat-

appear at each performance. The
patrons of the Grand will be sure to
see something that will interest them
