GRAND OPERA HOUSE. _ Louis James Gave Fine Presents- tion of "Virginius." It is to be regretted that the Louis James company's return engagement at the Grand Opera House, Saturday night in the famous tragedy, "Virgi- niu" was a Lenten presentation, for the city folk who naturally attend such attractions, were noticeably ab- sent, and the many empty seats were of a necessity discouraging. The , per- formance was one of unusual merit. Mr. James in stature and physique is aptly suifed to the role of the Ro- man father, "Virginius," and his de lineation of the character was per- fect. In the final scene, in the dun- geon, where in his madness from the effect of his murdering his daughter, who was about to be made a slave, he strangles "Appius Claudius," particularly strong bit of work. Arth- ur Young was the clever "Appius Claudius," playing up well in his death agony. Norman Hackett was happily fitted to the lover-brave, "Icilius," though he did not seem' to be playing with that whole-hearted spirit which char- acteriger his former appearance in the "Merchant of Venice." Alphie James was more at home as "Virginia," than in her. "Portia," of a week ago, in that the character suited her in- stead of her suiting it. CN Stark as "Titus," with the lusty voice, was the burly leader of the Roman mob--by the way a bunch of "supers" who didn't co half bad. The scenic effects were very fine, the drapings in Virginins' and Lumi- torius' home being of a magnificent richness. The costumes while exceed- ingly beautiful were correct to minute details, Marks' Company To-Night.
