ADJUSTMENTS
WIGWAM.

After the success of the Wigwam
theater last night, when the pictures
were shown and Miss Halls songs
were sung to as large an audience
as ever filled the house. il is crafty
ing to learn that Manager Mullen is
going to present tonight to the pa
irons of his house the greatest NOV
ing picture that has ever been shown
i'm any theater. THE Vampire" is
the name which has been appro-
priately given to this masterpiece.
and il gives a graphic and thrilling
history of the sorrow and despair
brought into Il home by "A woman's
nfidelity and fickleness. The picture
is not, as its title might suggest, at
all extreme or improper. for the sub
ject is handled with delicacy which
makes it thoroughly acceptable to the
most fastidious audience, and the i'm
preston created by it is invariably
most pleasurable and of the greatest
heart interest. The remainder of the
program will be up to the usual
standard of the Wigwam, carrying
two other films of the greatest inter-
est and beauty. Saved in the Nick
of Time" presents the thrilling rescue
of an old man from the rising water
and, Il Have Got Soap in Ny Eye"
is a comedy theme that will convulse
any audience in which the spark of
humor is not extinct. Miss Hall will
sing two numbers. which are certain
To be well appreciated, one of which
will be illustrated. entitled THE
Friend From Your Home Town" and
the other The Garden of Ny Heart"
a sentimental song of the most popu-
lar and pleasing variety. Miss Halls
already great popularity increases
with every appearance. Considered
as whole. the entertainment at the
Wigwam is really CLASSY" and to-
nights promises to be the best that
has ever been given.
