A good-sized audience witness- ed the production at the Grand last evening, The production is perhaps 'better called a spectacle, for it is of large proportions and requires over two hours to be run off on the can- vas. It is a beautiful picture and those whho have seen it during the past two days enjoyed it very much indeed." The music played by the orchestra was specially written for the production. Add OBIT.

Her every emotion is dis- played 'with startling vididness, and her self-sacrificing spirit fs shown through it all. In costume as well as manner she lives up to all our ideals built around the historical charaeter, and when she dies in the fire one can almost hear the crackling of the fagots as the flames leap up about One of the many wonderful of this production is the which is nothihg short of marvellous.

How he is obliged to dis-| guise himself as a woman in order to | entrap the cook, who is trying to| steal his farm, and how he finally | wins out against all sorts of odds, makes a thrilling and entirely hum- | orous picture.
