Had Record Attendance.
Last Friday proved a record break
er In the way of attendance at the
Majestic Theatre. It was the first
showing of the serial "The Iron Claw."
Eight hundred and seventy people at
tended the three performances ? 59n
grown people and '277 children. All
were highly pleased with the picture.
Mr. Little is giving his patrons the
very highest elass pictures. 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.

"William Farnum Found Dead."
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
