"THE LOVE THRILL."
CRYSTAL PALACE, MONDAY. "The Lovo Thrill," which is to be shown at the Crystal Palace on Monday, features Laura La Plunte and Tom Moore. It is ft wonderfully amusing story, and has to do with one of those strangely friendly and numerous beings, an insurance agent, only it's a lady one this time, and though the lady is Laura La Plante, she can't sell a policy. She is inherently truthful and honest, and loves her follow-man; especially does she love Tom Moore, a noble savage just back from an African exploration, and-who forgot to take his razor with him. The insurance lady is not immune from the crimes of her class, and if she can't tell calm fibs, she can poso as somebody's widow,, and everything gets hugely mixed up between Tom Moore as hero, Bryant Washburne as a sort of villam-pla-tonic friend, and .Tocelyn Lee as a jealous wife. And in the very middle of it all the noble savage and the insurance lady go and fall in love, and while the brokers are sitting in the office, they si* under the moon and say a number of foolish things one to the other. Then the poor relations start in, and denounce her for an imposs' o ' »r using the savage's name, and the **™P looks at her sorrowfully, as if he couldn t have believed it of her, and the lads bursts into tears, shakes her blonde head and gen orally goes through all the tricks of the trade until she actually sells a policy and takes out a life-interest in the savage s name. " might not sound so now, but it is verjhiw. and if Laura La Plante is fair to look upon Tom Moore is perfectly thrilling when ho gets his Giletto on to his patriarch-like beartt. Bryant Washburne is amusing as tbe Bewildered "heavy," and .Tocelyn Lee, the vamp of "Afraid to Love," gives another honeyed portrayal. . Loiß Moran and Dona d Kaith are the stars of "The Whirlwind of Youth, the second picture, a clever little drama, »» presents youth in all its varying guises, expounds its amazing theories, and shows its eternal follies and its Vernal splendour.
