ENTERTAINMENTS.

CENTRAL THEATRE PICTURES TO-NIGHT. TRACKED TO EARTH. The story, of a man who escaped the worst fate in the west —being hanged as a horse thief —by talking himself out of it, is to be told in picture form, to-night, with Frank Mayo in the leading role,. It is an entertaining bit of drama and comedy. The hero is really likable from the beginning. He goes put in the sand hills country , after a group of robbers and when he’ finds them is smart enoijgh to steal their horses so they can’t get away. Then he is unlucky enough to get picked up as a horse thief by a posse the robbers organise. SATURDAY NIGHT. “45 MINUTES FROM BROADWAY,” In “45 Minuter from Broadway,” George M. Cohan's famous success on Broadway, the screen version of which will be shown to-morrow night with Charley Ray in the title role, shows him at his very best. This characterisation of an ex-pugilist, from the Bowery—Kid Burns by name— was first created in 1904. Charles Ray has given it his own interpretation successfully. Dorotfiy Devore, of Clujistie Comedy fame, is the leading lady, and is charming to a degree.
