UNSETTLED THURSDAY. r‘wubco'...onrronmm A Theatre. ANNOUNCEMENTS COLONIAL THEATRE. Mexican Conspiracy Out-Generaled, Three Reel Warner Feature. L Bworune Tl remember the enor- sensation Mystery of Pine Creek ‘Camp, created at the Colonial last week and will want to see today, Mexican Conspiracy Outgeneraled, by the same company. This powerful spectacle is in three big reels and i headed by the peerless player, Miss Vartha Rus- sell, who portrays the lificult role amid actual scenes made in Mexico. There is a thrill for évery scene and the scemes cannot be diplicated for beauty or strength. The Price of Jealousy is the title of the splendid Pathepiay and Fickle Fortune’s Favor #5 the climax of novelty comedy. Harry Carey and Claire McDowell are seen in the Biograph dramatic offering, The Crook and the Girl. It is needless to say that this latter is a_sparkling gem ~on the program for toda Peg O’ My Heart. MISS PEGGY O'NFIL As “Peg” in “Peg O’ My Heart” nhA.' The “lg:‘;-xs for matinee and eve- on nesday, Nov. 5th, local theatregoers will have their first op- portunity to see Peg O° My Heart, Oliver Morcsco's production” of J. Hartley Manners' greatest comedy. The scenes of the play are laid in | a small town in England—the home of the Chichesters. They are a proud nnatural family and have & the responsibility of edu. an unknown niece, for than the urgen er reason the income hat is offered. Peg. on the other hand, is a joll impetuous _girl with fascinating s been ed by her ather, and when she Chichester horhe with cks the fam- r appearance and then by her manners. Her unfamiliarity with their mode of living, her ready wit and her curious antics, cause many humorous situations throughout the play. The daughter, Ethel, is having a love affair with a man named Brent, who is married. He had also been making love to Peg, but she repulses him, making friends only with Jerry, as she calls him. Peg is pre- venting an #iope: between Ethel and Brent, and t about to leave the Chichester home when it ed that Jerr: really an Engli bleman and in s a happ: when Peg, in Jerry's arms, tells him, that when her father hears the news he will quote the poets and say that “there’s pothing half as sweet in life as love's young dream.” In the ‘part of Peg, Miss Peggy O'Neil is said to be all that can be desired. She pported by a_well selected cast. Matinee prices 25¢ to $1.00; evening, 2ic to $1.50. Seat sale opens Monday at 10 a. m. h no- At the Audiforium. The vaudeville and picture program which concludes its engagement here today is one of the best all round bills seen at this theatre in a long time. | P. Ray Harlan Knight with Lillian Volkman | the terrible suff and George McDuff in The Chalk Line written by Ona Blayton, is the fea- tare of the bill and is a sketch which bas earned an enviable position for it- self in the field of rural playiets. The sketch is well presented by Mr. Knight and his capable company and is win- | ming much favor with the audience. A clever single on this bill is Lew ‘Ward, a versatile chap with 2ood songs monologue and character dances which get him a 15t of applause. A mensationa! stunt will be seen in | the picture line when Rodman and Gean Acker riding tandem on a mo- torevycle, take a drop of forty feet from an open drawbridge into the wa- ter beneath, when they are running away from the girl's excited parents to get married. The picture is en- titied The Dare Devil Mountaineer, in Z¥o reems, made by the Imp Co. and clndes several other dare devil stunts des the one just mentioned.
