ENTERTAINMENTS.

PICTURE SHOW

v ■■ugageu ~ - morrow es will ..... : •. ■ .. aen a splendid programme will be presented. A beautiful dramatic film entitled, “The Sunset Gun,’’ is easily one of the finest subjects that has yet beeu presented in Foxtou. It is the story of an old army veteran, who is too old to attend the eventful Decoration Day, and sits in his arm chair and dreams of all the stirring scenes of his youth ; iu lovely dissolving pictures we are shown the dreams of the old man as he sleeps aud lives again in the past. At last he hears the booming of the Sunset Gun, the last call, all lights out, and with a smile he sinks back aud closes his eyes, his light is out, he has answered the last call. His returning comrades find him serene but cold, and reverently cover him with the tattered old battle flag. A beautiful picture stirring in many scenes. Other dramas are the “Schoolmarm of Stone Gulch,” “His Lesson,” aud “Love Finds a Way Out.” A beautiful scenic film, “On the Shores of the Bosphorus,” will be greatly enjoyed by tt’.l who see it. Aud the ever interesting “Pathe Gazette” will also be shown. “The Runaways,” is a comedy by the Lubin Coy., and well worthy of mention. It is the story of a devoted couple, but, owing to the wife’s inexperience in housekeeping a quarrel started, they both leave aud curiously enough both arrive at the same town and the I same hotel, and by chance are assigned rooms next door to each I other, both unhappy they retire early but cannot sleep, and the fun gets last aud furious when the burglar arrives.
