in all its glory with the original American
cast. The lighthouse scene on Coffin Rocks,
| with a ship coming up to the ledge with full

| the spectator. The browning feature, how
ever, is the Span of Life" or bridge of
human bodies formed by three men across a
deep chasm with a roaring cataract beneath,
over which the heroine and her child escape
to safety. The Span of Life will create a
sensation here. first. because it is a novelty,
next, it is presented by a great company with
| original scenery and mechanisms-
