EDENDALE
LON CHANEY PICTURE “London After Midnight,” a thrilling Scotland Yard mystery story, will be shown to-night at the Edendale Theatre, starring Lon Chaney. A strange old haunted castle in England, over which hang sinister legends of long ago and astounding vampire superstitions, still believed In by many —particularly the peasant class —cqncernnig the “un-dead” which haunt graveyards and wander, between life and death, as malevolent avengers—these form the background of this weird and powerful story. Chaney plays a role dieflrent from any in his career, for instead of his usual sinister character he appears as a Scotland Yard detective who, with a scientific trend, utilises hypnotism as a weapon against ghosts and apparitions in the haunted manor. The second feature will be "Madame Behave,” an enjoyable comedy.
