EVERYBODY'S.
A double star programme will bo shown : at the Town Hall this evening. Wallace Reid, co-starring with beautiful Myrtle Stedman in “The World Apart,” is said to he the best example of young American manhood now on the screen, Tall, clear cut, good looking and powerful, he is equally popular with both sexes and with Miss Stedman the two make a combination hard to equal in this unusual and thrilling Paramount photoplay set amidst the hills and dales of the West. Reid, who complains ’ that the scenario writers lie ’ awake ' nights devising new methods of getting killed, has two thrilling fistic encounters in this production, one of them being especially interesting, as from a fight for the reels it developed into a real fight, and it took the. entire force at.
the . Morosco studio to separate the earring factions. Tito whole incident is so realistic, that it is impossible to tell where the picture fight left off and he actual scrap started, but it is all shown on the screen, except where the bystanders interposed. The second star is "My Fighting Gentleman," the latest Mutual-Ame-rican production in which William Russell is starred. The plot of the story is laid in the South during the Reconstruction period following the Civil War and the furnishings of the old southern Somes combined with the costumes of the period make the film a thing of beauty. Clever comedy scenes are introduced showing the life of the fcare-free ,happy negroes with their dances and music and ready laughter.
