GRAND OPERA HOUSE. '"The' Merchant of Venice' " Ably Presented. There was a large "and appreciative audience at the Grand Opera House last evening to witness Daniel Ryan and his company present '"The Mer- chant of Venice.' Mr. Ryan in the ole of "Shylock" showed that he was a close student of Shakesperean plays. He was so realistic that one would suppose" that he was the money Jender himself. His avaricious eyes sparkled with vindictiveness when the judge had partly decided in his Was favor, but the rage and disappoint- ment depicted on his countenance when the decision was given against him was terrible. As he: tottered from the court-room, feeble and hro ken-down, a touch of pity was felt. Mr. Ryan's portrayal of Shylock was the best ever seen here and the plau dits he received were well deserved. Ann Singleton's "Portia" was a finé piece of work. She read her lines clearly and her acting was -all that could be desired. "Harriet Buke as 'Jessica,' Shylock"s daughter, and a pretty Jewish maiden, could hardly be surpassed in the interpre- tation of her part. Ada Wadswarth, as "'Nerissa,"" $d good work. Nr. Ryan was well supported by William J firy as '"'Bassanio,"' Karl L. Way, as "Antonio," and George Fisher, as "Lorenzo." The balance of the company in minor parts gave valus able assistance. Mr. Jeffrey's "Bas- sanio"' was particularly good. The stage settings aad costumes were very striking and much admired. To-night the company will . close cogagement hy the presentation that much- talked-of and sensation- al drama "Salome," . which should draw a large audwence. SUNDAY SERVICES.
