TOM ARMSTRONG OF ARMSTRONG & VERNE
- rs

of a former day, were not just now
on the real Rialto, it would not be
difficult to imagine that he was on the
Opera House stage last evening, when,
ever Tom Armstrong appeared.
Tom Armstrong is the real funmaker
of the troupe. In drawing speech, in
sinuating voice in topical songs, in
makeup and in his movements, he is
the Eddie Foy of the old, old days. He
is harum- scarum product of the stage,
but his acts are finished As a clog
dancer, he took the audience by storm,
and is already the idol of the gallery
gods.
The performance is interspersed by
moving pictures which are rather good,
a military picture of Civil War days,
being favorite.
There are three Vernes-Priscilla, Joe
and Alf-and Tom Armstrong, and the
is varied and full of ginger. Armstrong
and Priscilla Verne appear in skits and
furnish no end of rollicking fun. The
lady s gowns are snowy and her acting
is in thorough accord with the antics
of Armstrong. The singing throughout
is very good, Alf Verne possessing a
splendid voice, but whenever Armstrong
appears he holds the center of the stage
His eccentric costumes go a long ways
to gain popularity with the audience.
Many of the jokes, while bordering on
the risque are new-some of them.
The audience was large and appre-
ciative one. The next performance viii
be given tomorrow night, and again on
Saturday evening.

The Empire.

"Panther hunting in Java" is one
of the most thrilling films shown Oh a
screen. 1t gives clear idea of the
difficulties and dangers which beset the
hunter of ferocious beasts in the jungle
and what may have been Roosevelt s
work in Africa. A Chinese Wedding
should draw a crowd from the Chinese
district because it has local color in it
and suc1 things are always of interest
not alone to the Orientals but to the
Anglo-Saxons whose customs are so very
different. This is a good film and will
certainly be enjoyed. A lesson for the
q How Jones Paid His Debts. This
is comedy all the way through and good
comedy at that. Another one is
Hunted by the Cops There is a
thrill or two in this but it is a thrill
of the humorous variety. The films are
all good and will be enjoyed.
The Park Theater.
Remember the location of the Park
Theater. Fort street just below Bere-
tania. Tonight will be shown ''Broth-
ers in Arms, one of the best results
from the recent attempts of the Edison
company. 1t deals with the civil war
and the battle is seen from afar. It
IS wonderful production and should
please a critical audience. .'Pere
Milon" is rather bearing out the esti-
mate of the late General Sherman az
to the meaning of war. There are
bloody deeds enough in the picture to
satisfy the most exacting but whatever
bad taste remains when the picture
ends is removed by BLESSINGS some
times come in disguise. - This is
pleasing picture dealing with a pet dog
and the man who stole il from its
owner. The entire program at the Park
this week is good and should draw a
