ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. “DIMY,” THE WONDER PICTUJVE, TO-NIGHT. One of the bast attractions of a decade is “Dinty,” in which Wesley Barry, the freckle-faced boy actor, is eeen in the first starring vehicle of bus youthful career. It is the tale of a fighting newsboy, who has an old Irish mother to support. San Francisco’e Chinatown is the locale for some erf the scenes, and it is replete with dramatic as well as amusing incidents. Among the unique characters who appear in support of Wesley Barry as “Dinty” O’Sullivan are a Chinese youngster and a jolly little pickaninny. Romance, pathos, humor and thrilling adventure makes this one of the most extraordinary cinema productions ever filmed. Wesley Barry’s smile, freckles, and inimitable acting made him famous in “Daddy Leng Legs” with Mary Pickford, but his crowning achievement has undoubtedly been made in “Dinty,” under the masterful direction of Marshall Neilan. It is a motion picture triumph for both Barry and Neilan, and, cannot fail to delight every man, woman and child who see it. “Dinty” shows to-night and to-morrow night, and at a special matinee to-morrow afternoon. There is a big demand for seats, and intending patrons would be wise to reserve without delay. The box plan is at Collier’s.

THE PEOPLE’S. LAST NIGHT OF “OUT OF THE SNOWS.” The Selznick National attraction, “Out of the Snows,” concludes to-night, at the People’s. The story is introduced with a thread of mystery, a beautiful foundling girl, and a ha If-breed woman of strange beauty. Into the lives of these two women comes a stalwart member of the mounted police., Outlaw fur traders, Indian runners and all the riff-raff of of a frontier trailing post furnish the background for one of the most thrilling melodramas the screen has ever seen. Ralph Ince is supportetl by Zena Keefe and Gladys Coburn. The rest of the cast is excellent, and the snowy exteriors were secured in the Far North. “The Moonriders,’’ comedy and gazette, are also on the bill. To-morrow a big double star Fox bill will be shown.
