ENTERTAINMENTS.
PICTURE SHOW
There is a good variety ot films on the list for Saturday, including dramas, comedies, comics, topical films, and a very pretty trick film, Animated Toys. “ Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde " this is a splendid drama taken from Robert L. Stevenson’s novel. “A Siren of Impulse” the story of impetuous Spanish blood, is also a film deserving of praise. Mariana the rose of the little Spanish village, being a tantalizing coquette, has the hearts of all the young men agog by her flirtations, until Jose finally wins her heart and hand. Shortly afterwards she wants to go to a dance, but Jose through jealousy refuses to allow her. At first defiant she dresses to go, but changes her mind and stays at home. Presently a child enters and solicits Mariana’s aid for her sick mother. Jose on returning and finding the house empty of course assumes she has gone to the dance, and a tragedy is narrowly averted by a mere chance. 11 A Modern Ananias ” this comedy is a veritable irrigation cf laughter. “ A Voice from the Deep,” a farce comedy is really good. The murder on the pier, and subsequently the voice from the deep, are as tunny as could be imagined.
