= The famous Burns-JOhnsOn battle,
which occurred at Sydney, Australia,
on Boxing Day. Dec: 26th, 1906, has
been reproduced on moving picture
films and by especial arrangement
with Mr.. Hugh D.. Mcintosh, will be
Tuesday to Friday nights, May II to
H., /
This fight occurred at II O'Clock in
the morning in the open air.. The sun
was shining brightly and conditions
for successful photography were ideal.
It has. been said by people who were
fortunate enough to witness these pic
lures in London that they were the
clearest ever show nof an event Of this
kind. The famous golden SMILE with
which johnson taunted hi sopponent
showing his dental improvements and
which was commented on by Jack
London, the American novelist in his
cable dispatches to Chicago, can plain,
y~be seen in the pictures. The most
minute. detail is brought out and en-
phasized by the camera. In fact, the
audience that witnesses these pic
lures will see the fight much more
clearly than did the majority of spec
tators at the ring-side in Sydney as
their point of vantage at the picture
reproduction will collectively he that
Q fthe camera which was only a few
feet from the ring.
When the pictures are shown here
with an expert lecturer to point out
/ the Incidents of interest they will be:
at popular: prices despite the expense
in bringing them to this country. =;

velopment of the plot. Blackwell

a revolution in the household Of Lamb
that brings joy to every hen-pecked
husband in the audience. y.
