Nursing a Viper, Stirring French Rev- olution Picture. The eustomary large number of pa- frons was present at the Breed theater last. evening and departed well pleased with the excellent and varied pro- gramme, The feature picture is entitleq Nurs- Ing a Viper and is a thrilling and sen- sational picture of the davs of the strenuwous French revolution, it being ome of the most successful period plays sver produced by the Biograph cast. The Viper is one of the nobility and, being pursued by the insurrectionists, seeks 1 (e in the house of an aristo- crat whe {8 a professed republican. To sscape detection he dons the garb of a servant, but immediately begins pay- ing ardent attentions to the hostess, she m king his attentions for ex- treme titude. The host arrives just in time to prevent his wife being in- sulted at the hands of the scheming nobleman and is about to shoot him down, bit concludes to.-hand him over to the wling mob outside the door, who make short work of him. This is a powerful historic picture and is-a marvel of staging and acting. Many other feature pictures are in- cluded em the bill, which shows seme wary clever comedy. Miss Wplcott delighted her audience with the pretty fllustrated song Come Be My Sunshine, Dearie, sending them :a‘ gfter the performance humming unting melody. MADE HIS AUTO.
