Last Chance to See the Wonderful Production of East Lynne Today. East Lynne that beautiful old story So._dear to the hearts of millions at home and abroad, is the attraction that will be seen for the last time at this popular theatre today. Many have read the book and many ve seen the staged production, but the photo play presentation is away ahead of all the other forms that have told this story. The scenery is perfect and gives a glimpse of that beautiful Severn River valley in Western Eng- land where Mrs, Henry Wood laid the scene for this immortal romance of love, hate and ambition. The part of Lady Isabel is portrayed by Miss Blanche Forsythe a clever emotional actress who gives the part a human touch that soon makes her personality felt to the audiences. Mr. Fred Paul the celebrated English leading man, plays the part of Richard. Caryle, and the supporting cast is all excellent, Today is the last chance to see this beautiful photo production of this story that appeals to old and young altke and brings back a fragrant mem- ery of the past. ‘The staging and costumes are of the early Victorian mod and no detail has been omit- Besides this special feature there is the usual programme of Mutual Movies, including the famous Mutual Weekly and The Gambling Rube, a Keystone comedy that has no trouble making everyone laugh. Messrs. Boyle and Craig have a cop- cert programme of solos and duets that are making a big hit at every performance. For the last half of this week another class “A” Famous Play- ers’ feature has been secured, and Grace George's famous success, “Clothes,” the celebrated society drama with Charlotte Ives will be the headliner, in addition to the regu- lar Mutual Movies, including Our Mu- tual Girl.

Do not miss this event today at the Colonial theatre, for it is the most thrilling in the series. “The Battle at Elderbush Gulch,” is the marvelous two reel Bi- ograph feature which is a story of life of ‘the pioneer sort.

The two com- edies for today are “A Man in the House,” and “The Tango Flat.” At the Auditorium. “A- Yard of Music” presented by Boutin and Hayes, the first half of this . week is causing much favorable comment. The stage setting is very pretty and the music which comes from novel instruments is most har- monious. Ford and Le Ray a pretty sister.team present a neat singing and plano specialty and Tom Devine, the “Hebrew: Politician” has a single turn thatis a positive scream. In the picture bill today is a big three reel 101-Bison Mexican feature, entitled “On the Verge of War” with Herbert Rawlinson and Anna Little.
