Then Mr. and Mrs. John Gray and Miss Har rington never fail to please and enter tain with their sweet music. "The Old Homestead" and the second episode of "The Iron Claw" will be the offer ing for tonight. "The Destroying AngeL" "The Destroying Angel" an Edison, five reel photodrama, released through Klelne-Edison Feature Service will be offered at the Majestic Theatre next Wednesday. As its title would indi ?ate. there Is tragedy in this story, but so thoroughly is it blended with ro mance that its gruesomeness is lost and only lleeing impressions of it re main. Love Is the predominating key note in this strong photoplay. True, love invites tragedy in "The Destroy ing Angel" but the sentimental strain throughout the five reels of film is s< marked that a spectator loses sight of tragedy until It is brought to the fore. The climax, too, does much to efface memory of the misery and human blood trail that mark the life of beau tiful Mary Ladislas, heroine in this photoplay.?radv. W. M. U. to Meet Here.

There is one scene in which William Farnum, the star, in "The Wonderful Adventure," a William Fox feature, is supposed to be dead on his bed. It was necessary for him to lie perfectly still In a cramped position for five steady minutes. Such perfect control has he of all of his muscles that as ho lay there on the bed of his little hall bedroom In which he is supposed to have died, that there was not so much as the flicker of an eyelid. Not even the twitching of a muscle of the neck or throat, or in fact any part of the body. It will be conceded by the general public when they witness this remarka ble pictupe, that Mr. Farnum never fore appeared to such extreme advan j ta "The Wonderful Adventure" 1 comes to the Majeatlc Theatre next Thursday, March 1<J. ? adv.
