COSY THEATRE
“LITTLE NELLIE KELLY.” “Little Nellie Kelly,” will be finally shown tonight. “THE PARSON OF PANAMINT.” Charlie Ruggles, as the founder of a goldmining town in the early Western days in “The Parson of Panamint,” which will be shown tomorrow night, plays a dramatic role far removed from his usual ones, yet it is leavened with much humorous dialogue. His protege, a young God-fearing parson, is portrayed by Phil Terry. As an eager young curate, he not only preaches but lives the Commandments, but his influence is lessened by the petty ‘leaders of the town, themselves led by Porter Hall ,as the banker. He and Ellen Drew a cabaret girl, eventually come together, but only after a tense Couit scene and a dramatic lynching. The associate feature, “Forced Landing,” contains plenty of thrills.
