ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY'S. LAST NIGHT OF "IN OLD KENTUCKY." Marshall Neilan has never done better work than in his stupendous sporting drama "In Old Kentucky," which opened to a packed house at Everybody's la=t evening. It has been well named the picture of 1000 thrills, for every moment of the story is packed with events of sensational speetaoies with hundreds of players and horses passing in seemingly endless array and every scene has its punch. Not only are the racing scenes full of interest but there are a dozen other striking happenings all with enough interest to make a six reel feature. Reckon all these events crowded into one magnificent picture and intending patrons can form some idea of the class of "In Old Kentucky." The final screening takes places to-night. "FAIR AND WARMER" TOMORROW. The above is not a tip for the weather, but the title of an uncommonly good motion picture furee which will be screened to-morrow and Thursday at Everybody's. For sheer absurdity of situation, clever and intriguing by a star, sparkling wit in title's and finish in production, "Fair and Warmer," with May Allison—dainty and appealing May Allison—as the star has to use the effective if colloquial expression, all other pictures we have seen completely backed off the map The hilarious stage success of Avery Hopwood, which was presented for over two years in New York and did record runs in London and other big cities, has been done into picture form not only without loss of any of the intrinsic punch and humor, but with an addition of merit. The picture is* a "Screpn Classic" production and a gem of the silent screen. It is being added as an extra attraction to the usual mid-week programme screening tomorrow and Thursday. Prices of admission for this .picture will be: D.C. ■2s, Stalls 's 6d, and Reserves 2s 6d at Collier's. THE PEOPLE'S. GEORGE WALSH AND VIVIAN RICH. Blowing up a vessel nt sea is one of the 1% scenes in "The Shark," a William Fox production featuring George Walsh, which will come to the. People's Theatre to-night. To save the heroine from a terrible fate it is necessary to tire the cargo of oil in the hold of the ship, causing a terrific explosion which blows the vessel to pieces. Realism in the superlative degree is demonstrated in this thrilling drama. The bill includes the big society drama. "Would you Forgive?" starring Vivian Rich and conveying a vital message to every husband and wife.
