The l,ouisville Post, Feb. 5th, has he following eoncerniiiK the play vhich appears at the Grand Saturay evening: "Despite the rain last ight tliere ivas a good sized audlence at Macauley's Theatre When Mr. F. Cartas opened a.n engagement in he laughable p lay, 'Sam'l of Posen.' "he ludiwnce was thoroughly pleased vitli the presentation. 'Sam'l of P08n' is the iirst stage picture that has ver done simple justice to the Hebrew haracter. Ever eince Shakespeare ■wrote the 'Merchant of Arenice,' it hae been the practice of the dramatist to aricature the Jew or hold him up as n object of execration. In 'Sam'l of Posen' he is the keen, enterprising, ommercial ïraveler, -ivho ís alwaye ood-natured, and at time ridiculoue, ut warm-hearted, honest, honorable nd loyal to his friends. This is the ype that bears eome resemblance to ile and it is portrayed in a very truttaul majiner by Mr. Curtis."
