The Toronto Mali In speaking of the play says: "A lartre house as sembled at the Grand Opera House lat evening to see the Production of Espy Williams' play. 'The Husband.'

The costumes and scenery will all be new, and the latest catchy music will greet the ear of the audience. Modjeska Friday Night. The simple announcement of the com ing of Modjeska Is enough to fill the Academy on Friday evening with lovers of poetic drama and the fine art of act ing, but the fact that his will be Mod jeska s last appearance in this city pre' vious to her permanent retirement from the stage, should still further attract the undivided attention of the theatre- going public.
