ENTERTAINMENTS.
GAIETY THEATRE PICTURES. TO-NIGHT. THE STILL ALARM. “The Still Alarm,” a modernised version of the old meoldrama of the same name, is to be s,hown to-night. In this thrilling picture ohe sees the-flre-fighters of a large, city in action, 40 firemen of the Los Angeles department taking part. There is the clatter of hoofs and the roar of motors. Smoke and flames roll from burning » buildings and men, women, and children are carried .down the ladders to safety.
THE MAN ON THE BOX. “The Man on the Box” as a novel was one of the, gayest, deftest, smartest stories of a generation. Turned into a play, with Henry Dixey in the title role, it delighted everybody,and still affords an outstanding memory of charming merriment to theatregoers. And now, as a photoplay, with Syd. Chaplin as. the gentleman idler who gets disguised as a cabman and '■ as a housemaid in the fast, furious complications of a rib-tickling fa,rce, it becomes one of the funniest pictures of any season.
