ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY'S. "GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAX." The screen is constantly attracting eminent actors of the spoken drama, and every now and then a well-known name amongst theatrical circles, is featured in 11 screen drama specially suited to the talent of the star. Such A picture is, "Greater Love Hath no Man," in which a prominent and favorite New York and British actor, Kmmett Corrigan, is featured. Mr. Corrigan is a powerful personality of the stage, being noted for strong dramatic parts .-equiring force and character. He is somewhat of the same type as the well-known star, Edmund Breeze—virile, forceful, yet wonderfully artistic. In this Metro production Mr. Corrigan gives a powerful rendering of a five-part drama, displaying a talent all too rarely seen. The story is dramatic, and at times deeply pathetic—there are sensational scenes and .stirring episodes—with a deep sympathy for the heroic man who pays a terrible pried for the kindness shown liim years before. This fine picture shows at Everybody's this afternoon at the matinee and again to-night. This will be the only occasion on which the liim can be screened locally.

TH-E PEOPLE'S. A BIG CIRCUS PICTURE. What is described as the greatest circus picture ever turned out is that commencing at the People's to-day at 2 p.m. and entitled "Under the Top." The star is the wonderful athlete, Fred Stone, and the play is said to contain the biggest circus scenes ever filmed. Nothing short of the big tent, could stage all Fred Stone's acrobatic miracles, vaultings, and parachuting?, and the wealth of originality and incident in the story is guaranteed. The bill includes the latest gazettes and comedy.
