AMUSEMENTS.

To-night at tlic Princess Theatre William Duncan and Edith Johnson are featured in a complete photoplay of the Croat North West entitled “The Silent Vow.” Packed, jammed, crowded, and breathless with thrills and action. There is never a moment’s release from the stirring movement of this great outdoor play. As much excitement crammed into six reels as a thirty-reel serial!

‘•ONE EXCITING NTGHT” THURSDAY.

On Thursday D. W. Griffith’s latest masterpiece “One Exciting Night” will he presented. A night where events scorn to have lost their naturalness, and nothing happens in the darkness or the light that is not uncanny, perplexing and altogether baffling. The heart of the mystery—soft slinking steps on her bedroom—-a crouching figure—a door sieaihily opening—she is still, her slender body outlined hy the lied coverings—no one to warn her— the jungle steps are closer—a hunter—a man—a powerful Kaffir—and she. a girl of eighteen—and downstairs. asleep—dreaming of her—is the hoy she loves. In spite of all the terror, and the dark and deadly enigma set you to solve, the tale is Millie and exhilarating, and chockful of humour. No funnier figure than the love-lorn darky liomeo, has been conceived in the fancy of funmakers. His rolling eyes are lamps of laughter—his antics are so uncontrollable. so unwillingly funny, that laughter nearly as acute as his angtitsn will seize you.
