eighteenth week last night to large and
appreciative audience. This wonderful de
vice increases steadily in popularity, and
at no time during it's exhibitions here have
such large audiences witnessed the per-

weeks. New views will be added during the
week, and in this manner the program win
be kept as attractive as usual, even for
those who have already witnessed one per-
Torrance. One of the new views which has
already been placed on exhibition is that
of the 'Bungling Waiter showing the
tainments sometimes experience. The Nj
agara Falls series are still on exhibition,
and have come to be locke upon as almost
as good as view of the Falls itself.
The views of the United States soldiers
going through their various exercises have
proven of exceeding popularity, as many
of the drills introduced are novelties. The
National Guard of the District will within
q short time begin the use of some of the
new drills shown by the Biograph The
