COMING ATTRACTIONS. One of the most
pathetic and true to nature moving pic
lures ever seen will be shown in Collins
Moving Pictures at the Opera House Dec.
9th. The first scene shows the meeting of
the sweetheartS in the garden. The father of
the young lady happens to come along and
being opposed to the young man orders
him to leave the grounds. His daughter
pleads with her father to let him remain,
but the stern old man refuses. The daugh-
ter says "If he goes, go with him. and
they both leaye, the old man vowing VEN
geance. Years after the husband is taken
i'll and dies, and the young wife and child
are left without anything to keep the home
together Finally the household goods are
sold piece by piece to keep mother and
child from starving. AS a last resort she
goes to the pawn shop to try and raise
some money on her shawl, but the clerk in
forms her that they do not loan money on
such articles. Her child standing at her side
offers her own little doll, but the clerk re-
fuses that The old man sitting at his desk
and hearing the woman's pathetic story, is
touched by the sweetness of her voice, and
after she has gone out follows her down the
street and offers her assistance, only to
recognize her as his own daughter A rec
oncliation takes place and the father takes
mother and child home again. A grand pic
ture. "The Factory Girl" which comes to
Belfast Opera House the evening of Dec. the
10, is written by Chas. E. Blaney, and is full
of thrilling climaxes, special scenery and
polite vaudeville, with plenty of good dane
ing and singing. Following is one of the
many criticisms;
An audience which taxed the capacity of
the Opera House, literally crowding it from
pit to dome, witnessed and thoroughly en-
joyed the initial performance of "The Fac
tory Girl" The scenic effects are far be-
yond the ordinary. Heart throbs and
laughter are so co-mingled that the interest
of the audience is not permitted to lag for a
moment.-Hartford Times, August %.
