THE EMPIRE.
BEAUTIFUL EDNA MAY AS "THE BELLE OF NEW YORK." Miss Edna May, the famous "Belle of New York," is immortalised in the filmic dramatisation of that celebrated musical comedy in the Vitagraph Bluc-Ribbon Company's powerful drama, "Salvation Jonn." Considerable diplomacy nnd much argument was necessary before the one time darling of the musical cornea., stage could he induced to appear on the screen, but the idea of once more living her old part of the Salvation Lassie decided her, and the result is a decidedly oil? coup for the producers. At the Empire Theatre to-night and following >;w<p nights Edna May is seen in her favoritu role, the role that made her world famous, that of the Salvation Lassie, whoie. gentle influence and patient courage triumphs over vice and wickedness." The star is well supported by a strong east including Harry Morey, Roger Lytton, Dorothy Kelly, Ned Finhiy and others. Seats for cither nights' "performances' can now be reserved at Collier's.
