MAORILAND THEATRE.
MYSTIC RITES SHOWN IN FILM.
Disappearing cabiiiets ; crystal balls and all the intriguing paraphenalia of the fortune-telling seer are familiar to millions, and yet each individual mystic and his every individual "prop" has a unique fascinating appeal. The personality of the mystic is in itself intriguing, wrapped as he invariably is in the seeming inscrutability of his profession. And about such a personality revolves the compelling mystery of "The Charlatan," the Universal feature production which will be seen at the Maoriland Theatre on Wednesday. ■
Besides the thrilling realism of the fakir, the picture, which was made from the New York stage success of the* same name, flashes into the circle of high society and in aud out of the Uvea of the beautiful women who come to the soothsayer for information and guidance concerning forbidden romances by which they are held captive.
"THE CAT AND THE CANARY,' *
Laura La Plante in the greatest mystery "thriller" of the sereon, "The Oat and the Canary," will be shown in Shannon on Friday. This picture has created a sensation wherever it has been screened.
