ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. SYLVIA BREM'ER IN “RESPECTABLE BY PROXY.” The Stuart Blackton production, “Respectable by Proxy,” features the Australian girl, Sylvia Bremer, who has distinguished herself in film circles. The drama is singularly well directed, finely acted, and rich .in sumptuous settings. Robert Gordon, Eulalie Jensen, William R. Dunn and Margaret Barry are conspicuous. Betty Blair, enacted by Sylvia Bremer, is a fourth-rate actress whom .circumstances place, in a country home as the widow of a son believed to be dead. He turns up to find a girl he has never seen posing as the wife he never wanted to see. The precarious position of his mother’s health forbade the truth being told, and when he falls in love with his pseudo-wife—after a bitter experience—matters are complicated. The picture commences at Everybody’s Theatre to-night. The t>ill includes gazette, comedy and “The Lost City,” and the matinee to-morrow commences at 2 p.m.

THE PEOPLE’S. LAST NIGHT OF “THE GIRL FROM OUTSIDE/’. To-night concludes the screening of Rex Beach’s big story of the Yukon country, “The Girl from Outside,” a thrilling tale of Alaska of 1900. It is enacted by an all-star cast. The bill includes gazette, comedy and “The Diamond Queen.” To-morroW’s change presents Elaine Kammerstein in Selznick’sf latest production “The Girl from Nowhere.” The story tells of the adventures of a young society girl who elopes with a man who, before they can be married, proves himself unworthy. The embarrassment of her position forces her to assume the pseudo role of a sportsman’s wife, and that embarrassment is soon magnified when her sup-posed-to-be husband suddenly appears on the scene and corroborates her claim. Then complications heap them* ’selves ’ one upon the other, until the tangle seems almost hopeless. The outcome of it all is shown in a series of dramatic scenes which end in an unusually satisfying manner. The matinee tomorrow commences at 2 p.m.
