TOM MIX IX “DO OR DARE.”

Local admirers of Tom Alix, and (l.ev are legion, will have another treat in “Do and Dare,” offered at the. Town Hall on Saturday next. This new screen play easts the vigorous hero in three distinct rojes—first as the valorous and peril-defy-ing se mt of l lie-plains, who rescues tin- beautiful daughter of the commanding officer df a frontier fort; second as the guileless, passive, top-hatted and nionoeled youth who neither seeks' or know- adventure, but who is suddenly fired by the desire of romance; aiul third as the brave und resolute participant in a South American revolution, whose (hil ing-deeds win for him the woman he loves and the command of a nation's military forces. A Sunshine comedy, “The Haunted House,” is also on Saturday’s programme. Usual prices, ftd and Is (id, children . 3d and (Id.

Some of the scenes are ultra-smart and the gowns and general presentation are splendid. Lewis Stone is really excellent. Also comedy: “Neighbours.” On Saturday night a strange and fascinating story “Missing Hus- ~ bands,” adapted i from the French novel, “L’Atantide,” by Pierre Benoite will be shown. The story is interpreted by a brilliant cast of French players. Also Larry Semon in “Golf,”
