ENTERTAINMENTS.
EVERYBODY’S. MITCH, LEWIS IN “THE LAST OF HIS PEOPLE.” Mitchell Lewis, the husky portrayer of lovable French-Canadian and other virile characterisations, will be seen in a role that is .both different and new at Everybody’s to-night, “The Last of His People.” Tiffs ri-u an Indian etory with the star cast n.s Lone Wolf, the last male member of his tribo, who, with his young sister, Na-ta-le, is adopted and reared by a white man: Shooting the rapids of a treacherous mountain stream in a frail canoe, and battling to the death upon a ‘rocky ledge high up a mountain side, are but two of the thrilling moments in “The Last of His People,” a powerful afld surprisingly dramatic story. The bill includes “The Invisible Hand,” gazettes, and comedy. THE PEOPLE’S. “DRAG HARLAN” FINISHES TO-NIGHT. The performance to-night of “Drag Harlan” at the People’s Theatre marks the close of the latest of the William Farnum star series made in the schedule of William Fox. Apparently nothing has been overlooked that could make this picture intensely interesting. The action has the delightful tang of the. old days of the Western plains, when gun-fighting was both an indoor and outdoor sport, when good men and bad ones “'went out” with their boots on; when a quick trigger finger was a man’s best life insurance; when a pretty girl was a treasure that all men coveted, and gold was something to be battled for. All people- who love to read stories of the West, who are interested in the tricks of gun-fighting resorted to by America’s old-time outlaws and cowpunchers, find “Drag Harlan” very much to their liking. J. Gordon Edwards directed the production. A screaming Sunshine comedy, and gazette showing the big airship before the accident, are also on the bill. The box plan is at Collier’s.
