Madge Evans plays the star part and is supported by |Johnny Hines and Violet Balmer. There is a fascinating love interest. This pleasing, picture screens at the matinee this afternoon and again finally to-night. COMING MONDAY. "MILESTONES." On Monday and Tuesday nights the management has arranged to screen the great nine reel special feature of English life, "Milestones." Prices will remain as usual. THE EMPIRE. MATINEE TO-DAY AT 2 P.M. "TRIPLE TROUBLE" AND "BARBARY SHEEP." Crowds of intending patrons who neglected to reserve seats at the Empire Theatre last evening were turned away sadder but wiser people. For days past the management has warned patrons (hat there was certain to be a Dig rush for seats and advised reserving at Collier's. Many people took this advice and last night saw in comfort the most brilliant picture programme ever screened in this town. Many others neglected .the good advice and met with the announcement "house full." The two attractions were an Artcraft special, "Barbary Sheep," with Elsie Ferguson in the lead, and a three reel comedy, "Triple Trouble," starring the inimitable comedian,' Charlie Chaplin. Both these attractions arc screening again, twice to-day—firstly at the matinee this afternoon and secondly and finally at .the evening session. -The management advise as many intending patrons as possible to attend tho matinee this afternoon, and to tliqse who cannot at,tend the afternoon performance the advice is, "reserve your seat for to-night."

THE PEOPLE'S. BEAUTIFUL ELSIE FERGUSON. Elsie Ferguson, that radiant specimen of womanhood comes to the screen to-night at the People's in her newest Artcraft picture, "A Doll's House." The cities of the world are full of doll's houses, homes where husbands make pets and play,things of their wives. The doll wife of Thorvald Hclmar walked from his door—out of his life—with breaking heart she left her three cliildren to force her husband to consciousness of his umvorthinesy. She left her children—and yet every woman who sits in judgment on her will say, "She was justified." The latest gazette, Bray Pictogrnph, and "Tlia Eagle's Eye," No. 10. The matinee to-day commences at 2 p.m.
