A Brilliant Programme.

For his new programme at tn.
Grand Opera House Monday. February
Z. Lyman II. Howe has colI>cted j
series of scenes that are a.. once
unique, exclusive, and impressive. The
views have way Of transporting the
spectator that leaves nothing to be de.
sired. Just as some great actor con.
trives to pass his personally over the
jfootlights and, perhaps without a
spoken word. wins his audience in 4
way 20 subtle that It is fndcseribahte,
so Mr.. Howe Succeeds in making each
picture seen, less than mere picture.
and mere like reality than any othe.-
EXHIBITOR In this country. Every scene
retains that indercribahle Something
| That "loeaI enIer" or atmosphe.e-that
MAKES one feel as though looking at
aesuaillies. Since Mr.. Howe's produce
lions are SO we'll known: It seems al
most needless to say that they, fmpart
the dignity OF, truth, that they are brit.
liantIy interesting and magnificent spec.
.mens of the photographic art. All
this is especially well. o.emplified By
a reproduction Ct a vast .eoneourse Of
Hohammedans at worship at their
great Mosque In Delhi, india. The sub.
ieet In itself, IL presented only IA black
end white, would be Impressive be.
cause of SIS solemnity, the strange
mcde OF worship by still stranger wor-
shippers and the size and architecture
oil. their shrine. But all this; Is ZEN
HANGED a hundred.foId because Mr..
Howe reproEuecs the entire series In
all the gorgeous coIors OF tho Orient.
Here Is scene which will Iinaer in
tie !nner sight for many years to come.
not only because 1t Ia 80 strange and
SO solemn, but because it is so purely
Oriental. 1t Is SO artistic In every
sense that 1t seems more like mas
ternieee conceived by some great mas.
ter of art instead 1T a real photograph,
which 1t Is. The color tones and
tnts-th. archttecture--the dress, the
movem-n.s-everything is true to the
Orient, yet So beautiful that II seems
like great Oriental poem revealed in
perfect pictures. This, however, Is
merely one Of many other features
which are as entirely different as pos.
sibie. There are scenes of tn. biggest
voieano OF Java In eruption; the reriIa
faced by rh- fishermen in the rlortl,
Sea; the effect Of music on wild ami
mails: the United States army maneu-
sers: great American military tour
na:nent: testing the biggest gun in the
world; wild birds In, their natural col.
ers. etc, etc. i7s
