Montour American. (Danville, Pa.) 1866-1920, 1902-11-13
AT THE THEATRE.

Lyman H. Howe'S Moving pictures
will appear at the Opera House to.
night under the auspices of the Wo-
mans Society of Saint Paul's NJ. E.
church. There are moving picture
shows galore, but Mr.. Howe's is the
king of them all, as everything about
it is right up to date, and it leads all
leads all circuses. Fully sixty pictu-
res are shown at every performance
and each one is true to nature, being
accompanied by all realistic sounds.
Mr.. Howe is constantly adding new
| pictures on worthy and interesting
subjects and for that express purpose
made a tour to Europe last summer,
consequently is able to keep far in the
lead of all competitors. Whenever a
new picture is placed upon the market
if it is of any worth, he will purchase
it regardless of the enormous expense
involved. In this way he has secured
the rarest pictures and has even gone
to the trouble of importing from
France some beautiful gems of views,
that are perfect ideal dreams OF the
art of animated pictures that have no
duplicates in America, and is ii then
any wonder that his exhibition can
not be outdone by his humorous
rivals? He leads and others try to |
follow. That is the reason packed
houses greet him everywhere and the |
demand for return dates keeps increas-
ing. 1t is the biggest show of the |
kind on the road to-day. No wait or
delay, but a solid picture show last |
ing over two hours.

A dispatch from Pottsville says =
The premier production of "The Lily
and the Prince, by Miss Mildred
Holland, supported by strong com
pany, was given at the Academy Of
Music here Monday night. The house
was sold week ago and even stand
ing room was at premium. Encores
and curtain calls were frequent and a
perfect storm of applause greeted
Miss Holland as Angela after the
third act (the inquisitiOn scemcD, |
which is entirely novel and mystor-
ious, where she has practically the
situation to herself. The production
is gorgeous, with magnificent costumes
and scenic effects. The play came
near being marred in the first aCt, |
when the fountain flooded the stage and |
cellar of the Academy. Some Of the |
floor scenery carpet and valuable stage |
settings were damaged by the water |
and partly ruined. The company Tc- |
covered themselves sufficient So that |
when the curtain was rung up none |
In the audience were aware OF how |
close they camo to be deprived of |
performance.
