“SIBERIA." The vast land of mystery, the deep plotting of various parties, and the dire distress of the poor peasants are all vividly presented in the seven-reel melodrama, “Siberia,” to lie seen at the Town Hall to-night only. Alma Rubens as the rich heiress who deserted her grand family to work among the poor, and was banished to Siberia, has the leading role. She is supported by such brilliant artists as Edmund Lowe, Lou Tellegeu and Paul Panzen. The Him is one of contrasts, ranging from, the wild orgies of the Czar Nicholas’ Court to the Salt mines of Siberia. A comedy, “Failure,” and Fox News also. Usual prices.

If you like big fights, fast riding, marvellous mountain scenery and all the thrills that make good Western stories, you’ve got a treat in store for you. Ccntuary comedy as well, entitled “Flying IVlheels.” On Monday night “The New Commandment,” which stars Blanche Sweet and Ben Lyon, and is full of thrills, will he screened. An artistically treated love story, which will keep the onlooker guessing as to its outcome. V
