Cohan Theatre, The only suggestion of it was that the nemesis of Evelyn in the films was an architect and that the name she gave her boy, when she changed her own in the course of her re- deemed life, was “Harry.” In the films the outraged husband does not shoot the villlan—he only chokes him and later the husband dies, Evelyn rises to her final height through a dressmaker’s shop, and her boy finally marries the daughter of the man who had scarred her early life. To add some excitement there was a laboratory explosion to bring it all about. There was an overflowing crowd to see Julius Steger’s production, The consensus of opinion was that young Russell Thaw was a better movie actor than his mother was an actress, Miss Nesbit made a drief speech from @ box at the close of the show, eget STRAND’S SCREEN SHOWS HOW ‘NO MAN’S LAND’ GOT ITS PORTENTOUS NAME The hard fighting, with its heavy toll of life, which gave to “No Man's Land” its name is visualized this week at the Strand in as fine a set of | wer pletures as have ever been shown in New York City.
