ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. “MOLLY OF THE FOLLIES” MATINEE TO-DAY. “Molly of the Follies” paints an interesting and liumoMous picture of the lives of the performers in freaks and sideshows at Coney Island. As Molly, dainty and bright, the little dancer whose terpsichorean exhibitions entice the curious to view the even more wonderful scenes and turns inside the show, Margarita Fisher is in her right place. The role suits her to the ground, and she is never out of the picture, J>ut presents an entrancing and sympathetic rendering of tbe. role. A v good clean story is revealed with plenty of real entertainment value that should give universal pleasure to all who see .the picture “Molly” screens at both sessions to-day.

COMING MONDAY. “A SINLESS SINNER.” Marie Doro stars on Monday and Tuesday in the Breimon English special, “A Sinless Sinner.” This is a powerful dramatic piqture, classed by the censor “for adult screening only.” THE PEOPLE’S. Wm. F AVERSE AM IN SELZNICK SUPER-PLAY.

“The Man Who Lost Himself” is a special Selznick masterpiece. It is described as a mystery comedy-drama with setting in London. It concerns the adventures of an American who goes to sleep one night as plain Yictor Jones of Philadelphia and a*wakens next morning as the Earl of Rochester with a houseful of ornate servants and disagreeable relatives, a beautiful wife from whom he is supposed to be estranged and a reputation, that makes him one of the most shunned men in the English polite society. Poor Jones has an equally hard time living up to the title of trying to get away from it and, his numerous odd adventures, are said to constitute one of the most remarkable comedy-dramas ever presented on the screen and a production fully worthy of Mr. Faversham’s talents. The bill includes conclusion of “Tih Minh” and opening of Bill Duncan in “Smashing Barriers.” The matinee to-day commences at 2 p.m.
