It was almost as good as wit nessing a real play. The picture leils a story in p pantomime ol a stirring war drama during the campaign of tlie Fundi in Algiers. The svci:w are all intensely dramatic and the inteiv.-t of the spectator is maintain ed to the lrghest pitch throughout the picitue. Several other good pictures were shown hi audition to "The j French Spy." "Forty.r hi* .Minutes from Broadway."' j Speaking of "Forty-Five .Minutes j from Broadway," which will appeal I here Tuesday night, October 15, the iri..o.nn.?.i,.m t v c i Journal says. I Forty-Five Minutes from Broad way." easily one of the brightest things that ever evolved from tin brain of George M. Colmn, came again 10 the Auditorium last night and was well received by a fair sized audi ence. -Mr. Bert Leigh, featuring as "Kid" Burns, scored as the slangy, big hearted product of The Way and , Forty-second street. Tht> company j gave an entertaining production gen- j erally speaking. As a matter of fact { there is so much good stuff in Co- j han's musical play that it has to! "get across" with an average amount j of pushing. "Mary is a Grand Old j Xante," "Forty-Five Minutes from i Broadway" and "So Long Mary" are I indeed about the tunefullest items that have sprung from the White Way in these seven years and time does not stale them overmuch. Mr. Leigh worked faithfully and with good effect as the "Kid." A little more moderation would improve him. but he has genuine talent and good looks. Miss Burgess* "Mary" was sweet and sympathetic. Mr. Roque more's "Tom Bennett" was very well done. Mr. Ward was the villain to the 1 Ii:??

"FORTY-FIVE MIM 'I'KS FROM ItKOAI)WAV* CLEVER Rert Leigh and a Capable Cent puny <?ave a Performance Here That Was Enjoyed Raleigh News and Observer. "Bert I.eigh and his big company in "45 Minutes from Broadway" appear ed at the Academy of Music last night for the first time. Too much cannot be said of the success of this attrac tion. as it is one among the best seen here.in some time. Thomas Ben nett. a young millionaire, inherited by the death of his father, is about to marry a young and pretty chorus girl, who with her mother visit the estate of Bennett in New Kochelle, N. ;a gb1 At Grand fHEATRE Y., which is 15 minutes from Broad j way, and during her slay at the IJen nett home meets Dan Cronin, an arch conspirator who is always trying to ; rteece some one and through the ei ' -u't/i HiiHis" :m<i "Alary Per : IUIIC5 KJl 1V>U _ _ kins," the plans of Cronin are thwart-1 I c'u, und an ends happily. The plot is ! j .1 good one. Mr. Leigh has surrounded himself' with a first-class company, a corking | -;ooJ looking chorus oi men and wo- | :nen, and a production that showed j .:>.e earmarks of a brand new metro polis Jirst night. As Kid Burns, he played the part of a tough New Vork :ug, and he played it admirably, full . I actum and true to life. .Mr. Leigh s an excellent actor and deserves a;ch crnl.t tor his work last night, ie is always welcome on his visits :e:e. Haxele nurgess, who portrayed lie part of "Mary,' Is a new comer. '.:ii;' it young, pretty and shows much : romiso for a long and successful ca reer in the musical comedy. Her two ongs, ".Maiv is a Grand .Name,' and So I.oiifi Mary.' are gems, and she handles them both with much grace :nd voice. She won many friends af ter rendering these two numbers, from the applause she received. Hen ry Roquemore, as Tom Bennett, de -* - * 1J ^ serves mum praise in nis pan. uc lias a rich baritone voice, far above the average. Bertha Xoss. as Flora Dora Dean, is exceptionally good in her portrayal of the wife-to-be, and Shirley Mayberrv, as Mrs. David Dean, played hor part with much emotion. The remainder of the cast is evenly balanced and are all very good. The chorus girls are very pretty, good voices and pretty costumes. The chorus boys. also, were very neatly dressed in their many changes. Mr. Leigh is to he complimented on bringing such a capable company and production to this city, and it is hoped he will he an annual visitor, as his work with both 'The Man on the Box' nnd '-15 Minutes from Broad way' will linsror long in the minds of Raleigh theatre goers."

PLAN FOR WATERING TREES Tanks Sunk In Ground Supply Neeaea Moisture?Need Not Worry Over Dreaded Drouth. Owners of valuable trees and plant? need no longer worry about drouths If they will install the apparatus pat ented by a man in the state of Wash ington. This comprises a pair of tanks that are 6unk in the ground on either side of the tree. In the bot tom of these tanks are discharge out For Watering Treei. lets, and the flow of water through these outlets is regulated by mean* of plugs. There is also a drain open ing In the bottom of each reservoir. Pipes extend up from these tank* to above the surface of the ground, and through these pipes the reservoir* can be filled when the water gets low. This can be discovered by watching a float In one of them. Aa the water sinks this float slowly drops down with it and when the top of the float has fallen to the top of the pipe it 1* time to flll up again. , HEAL !T WITH ncklen's THE ONLY GENUINE mica KEEPS FLESH IN TONE FROM SKIN TO BONE.
