ENTERTAINMENTS.
AURORA THEATRE PICTURES. TO-NIGHT. THE BARRIER. A sailing ship tossed in stormy seas off the Siberial coast; a raging fight on deck ; maddened men battling furi usly in the cabin below while towering mountains of ice lock the vessel in a death grip ; an escape as the vessel is crushed like an eggshell between gigantic bergs. These are a few of the teeming thrills piled upon each other in the adaptation of Rex Beach’s novel “The Barrier,” which is to be screened to-night. THURSDAY NIGHT. BERTHA, THE SEWING MACHINE GIRL. Once more thei beautiful and always splendid actress Madge Bellamy scores a triumph. This time it is in “Bertha, the Sewing Machine Girl,” which is to be screened to-morrow night. Those of an older generation will recall “Bertha, the Sewing Machine Girl” as one of the better types of melodrama of a score of years ago. In fact, it is one of the very few plays of those days that have survived the test of the years.
