ENTERTAINMENTS.

. EVERYBODY’S. LAST NIGHT OF “BRING HIM IN.” A thrilling out door tale “Bring Him In,” starring Earle Williams, was the principal feature at Everybody's last night. The story is a stirring drama of the Royal Mounted Police and is regarded as one of the best Earle Williams productions to date. “Bring Him In” get its name from the motto of the famous Northwest Mounted Police. A member of that organisation is on the trail of Dr. John Hood, a role assumed by Williams, determined to bring him in. By a queer twist the pursuer and pursued become pals without either realising the identity of the other. Complications arise which result in Dr. Hood returning to headquarters bringing the sergeant in. The final screening is announced for to-night. To-morrow Katherine McDonald and Wesley Barry (“Freckles”) will star in a siX-reel First National special “Stranger Than Fiction.”

THE PEOPLE'S. HARRY CAREY IN “ROPED/ To-night and to-morrow night at the People’s the popular out-door actor, Harry Carey, will be starred in his latest big success “Roped.” This picture is not a “Westerner” but nevertheless it introduces Carey and all his cowboys and is described as the jolliest, humanest ! Carey picture ever filmed. The fact that Carey and the boys often appear in ! evening dress adds considerably to the! fun. It is a story of wonderful charm and appeal, showing Cheyenne Harry in search of a housekeeper finding a society wife, and therewith a heap of trouble. The picture fairly oozes joy, has just sufficient serious interest, introduces an ideal hero and heroine—and a baby. It comes as near as possible to the perfect entertainment. Prices are as usual, and the management announce that in any genuine case of hardship free seats arc available on -application to the house manager.
