Today will be the last chance Nor- wich theatregoers will have to wit- ness the massive feature photopiay, The Rosary, a seven part Selig red seal production, pronounced by every- one who has seen it as the finest pic- ture ever shown in this city. Seldom before has the motion picture screen shown such a finished production, both from the dramatic and artistic stand- point. Critits havVe declared it to be one of that rare class which can justly called ‘masterpieces.” The story, which has for its. chief characters Father Kelly, a priest, a young man and. his wife, is too well known to need any retelling. It is sufficient to way that in film it does justice to both the novel and the play. Kathlyn Wil- liams, Charles Clary, Wheeler Oak- man, Frank Clark and Bugenie Bes- serer are among the well known fa- vorites who appear in the cast. This is the.first picture of the Big Four productions which will be shown at this theatre each week and every- one is a genuine masterpiece. Secured at enormous expense for this city, the vaudeville attraction today is a real Keith headliner in Archie Nicholson & Co., presenting a clever musical comedy act. They play several instru- ments and are making a big hit with the Davis patrons. The Mutual War and a funny comedy com- plete the bill. Owing to the extreme length of the show the first perform- ance in the' evening will start at 6.45 o'clock and the second at 8.45. The matinee will begin at 2.30. No advance in prices.

George Broadhurst’s latest success, The Law of the Land, which, for 35 weeks last season was greeted by an overflowing audience nightly at the Forty-eighth Street theatre, New York, .will be the attraction at The Davis, Friday evening, Sept. 17th with the well known emotional actress, Ade- laide French, in the principal role. The story of The Law of the Land concerns a gentle, sensitive, refined woman who is d to a brute. An- other man comes along, a bridge en- gineer named Morton, whose pity and chivalry draw him to the abused wife. Morton and the wife go to the hus- band with the story of their love and ask him to give the wife a divorce. This he refuses to do and Morton goes away, to protect the woman he loves from the dangers of scandal coupling their names together. Years pass, during which the husband plays with his wife as flendishly as a cat does with a mouse, and then Morton comes back. He has heard that the husband has been circulating stories to his dis- credit and he comes to the house de- manding that they be recanted. There is a stormy scene between the two men in which the husband reviles both his wife and Morton and orders Mor- ton from the house. Before he leaves the wife goes into another room and brings in her child blinking with sleep to see Morton. Something untangible in their attitude flashes the truth to the husband that he has never suspect- ed before—that the child is Morton's. He selzes a dog whip and begins beat- ing the tiny form with the fury of a madman. Unable to bear the heart- piercing cries of the little one, Mor- ton rushes to the rescue and in a flash the story is out. Morton goes away and the husband tells his wife that his revenge is going to be to keep her and the .child near him and to beat the child almost to death. He again picks up the heavy dog whip and starts for the child’s door, when the mother, the tigress aroused in her, seizes a revolver and shoots him dead. The police come. The death of the man is being investigated. The wife wants to confess, but her lover refuses to permit her, because if she does it will ruin the life of the little boy. He will be branded by the disgrace of either having a mother in prison or one .in an asylum for the criminally insane, and the child’s father claims the right of a father, to sacrifice him- self for his son. It is a dilemma ter- rible and heart rending. Which shall the woman choose, the man she loves or her child? The question is thresh- ed out in a scene of throbbing inter- est and suspense. Of course the solu- tion is found and there is a happy ending. The Law of the Land will be pre- sented here with an all New York company and the original production will be carried. In the role of the persecuted wife and mother, Miss Ade- laide French is said to have scored even a greater triumph than the won- derful success of her Madame X, a role which she originated and played for several seasons. In The Law of the Land Miss French will be support- ed by such well known players as Coates Gwynne, Frank Stirling, A. H. Hendon, Joseph Merrick, Durwood Primrose, together with the big New York production. Seats on_sale today at 10 a. Prices 25¢, 35c¢, 60c, 75¢, $1.00 and $1.! 50 By popular demand the subscription list will be discontinued this season/ and the mail orders will take the place of same.
