The crowded houses which witness- ed the showing of the splendid double | feature bill at the Lyceum yesterday all went away pleased and thorough- ly satisfied with the show. Charles Ray in “A Nine O’Clock Town” gave nothing but laughter and thrills to his admirers. Ths story abounds in those moments peculiar to Charles Ray, and he’ takes advantage of them own inimitable way. Charles son of a merchant in a small country town and his father decides that son’s ideas are too extravagant for a little town and so he is sent to New York. He later returns to wake up the town as a successful business manager. This picture is bound to please @veryone. The other feature is “Back to the Woods'" starring dainty beautiful Mabel Normand. This photo- play is a comedy drama in laughter vies with thrills and the set- tings in which the play is enacted in his range all the way from a logging to | the gorgeousness of a Fifth avenue mansion. Mabel Normand has a role in which she is enabled to do the work in which she excells and which, at the same time, offers her opportuni- ties for a departure from her usual characterizations. She has been pro- | vided with a role calculated to delight her admirers. Oddly enough Mabel Normand is the only feminine member of the cast in- terpreting this play. It is a big play in every sense of the word, yet she is the only girl in it. You cannot af- ford to miss this adventure in an ele- vator. The vaudeville is exceptionally good. Art Smith, a clever comedian, makes a big hit with the patrons, and Stewart and Dahl and Co., present a fine novel playlet while the Venetian Duo offer a very fine musical act.
