ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY'S. VIOLA DAXA IN "BREAKERS AHEAD" TO-NIGHT. Charming Viola Dana again, in a role that has been especially written to suit her winsome personality—although Miss Dana is a star of brilliant and versatile attainments who asks no odds of any one- "Breakers Ahead" is a story of the sea and 9ea faring people. Bluff old "Captain" Scudd, Erie I'ixley, his first mate, Mike Burley, the ruffian willing to steer "The Wasp" upon the rocks in order to collect the insurance money, and the little waif, Ruth, who grows up with the sound of the salt sea pounding in her ears, becomes very real to the spectator. '• Breakers Ahead" will appeal to those who dwell near the sea, and also to land-locked people who live far from the coast, and everyone, everywhere, will admire the beauty of the sea scenes. "Breakers Alu»ad" screens to-night and at both sessions to-morrow. THE PEOPLES. LAST jnIGHT OF JEWEL CARMEN. "The Kingdom of Love" screens finally to-night at the Pooples. This play, with the wonderful human story it tells, tiie Inrilling .situations v.'iiieli are presented, would be notable even if it did not contain Jewel Carmen the beautiful ;tnd attractive new st.xr Miss Cannen has proven herself in litis pHiy to be worthy of all the honors of stardom, ami s'ic has .. r ;iven a performance thai; is noc only interesting and thrillin« but which has kh intellectual side to it that makes it appeal to everyone who sees it- Tomorrow a big western picture, "The Tenderfoot" will be the leading number.
