ROYAL ThEArER.

With four firsI run ree;s, everyone an interesting topic from the best companies, the Royal s~issil continue its weeks run of big offerings today.
 A new Bronoho, just from the manufacturers, entitled "The Pros pector's Daughter" is one of the pie ture stories, a western drama in which the Broncho company is un- eXcelled. The scenery is great, the principals are all well known in the picture world and the reel is one to be remembered for long time It is an intense drama
 Following this is one of those dandy Majestic comedies, just to drive away the serious look oh your face. All on Account is the title, which is grevity itself. but there's much more to the picture-many a good hearty laugh.
 For His Sake" is beautiful film story from the Rex studio. You all know those excellent Rex pictures. None better
 And to wind up will be an Imp. comedy drama. tThe More Haste, the LSsS SpSeu. HIS Oiu dudse WAS iH- planted in the old, old fable of the ,acs between the tortoise and the hare. You remember, the hare got sGeh lead he lay down to take a snooze. and the plodding turtle won the race. However. you will not sleep much during this reel, as it will ksep you laughing every minute of the time.

"The Pink Ladv.v


 Kaw X Erlanger's international musical comedy triumph. "The Pink Lady is the attraction 'extraordi- nary" announced for one perfor- nance Tuesday, December 31st This, greatest of all recent theatrical tinan- cial and artistic record breakers will be seen hera, arrayed in all it's glory, the same as when it electrified the press and public of America and later achieved the same mark of distinc- ton in Europe.
 In many respects The Pink Lady is an ideal work It represents the finest achievement in every depart ment that is essential to the success of musical effort of it's quality. It las that distinctive note that is vaguely termed as class and it has a book tkat could be played alone but which is developed to the accompani- ment of a score so delightful in it's separate numbers that this addition would make an ordinary effort dis tinct success. But in the cOmbina- ton there are all these qualities tha. embrace the biggest success our stage has ever known. C. M S. Mcclellan wrote the book as an adaptation from the French of Georges Berr and Mar eel Guillemaud which under it's orig inal title "Le Satyre" ran for a year

 The Kelly-Schuster company is the biggest vaudeville aggregation now IaFellng. In "F'riSky France" they have built up a musical comedietta that is noted for it's cleanliness with out detracting one whit from the music, the comedy, the action or the beauty of the offering. It is the kind of an attraction that the aver age vaudeville fan will cleo. to see and hear a second time within week, and during its brief stay in the city it has packed the Princess at almost every performance.
 Christmas. matinee and night, will be the last appearance of this big featore show and it stands to reason that the seating capacity of the house will be taxed at every show. Ad- vance reservation for the night shows should be made at as early date as possible, as "Frisky France is enc of the greatest holiday bills the Princess has ever offered it's patrons.

MANILA BAY GUARDED BY
GIBRALTAR OF THE PACIFIC
Corregidor Island Made lmpFeg-
nable to the Navies of

BY DOROTHY sTANhoPE.

trance OF Manila Bay stands the
Island Corregidor. known rs the
Gibraltar OF the Pacific. IL is lone
~, iorbidding pile OF rocks. Along
IT'S banks are masked batteries,
whose location is kept secret. On its
precipltous sides are still others aud
Oh its summit are huge guns that
can sweep many miles OF sea
Should the islands be attacked and
taken by hostile power, this would
be the last stand OF our troops, and
II is being so strongly fortified as 10
render IL impregnable Here would
be placed the women and children,
and the troops would withdraw 10 II.
Ii is kept stocked with six months
supplies, being the storehouse for
the islands, as rapidly as the supplies
arc drawn upon, they are replaced
by incoming transports. There is al
WAYS enough food stored there TO
feed $4,000 persons six months.
Since the United States has de-
termined 10 make this the stronghold
OF the Philippines. IL has been for
hidden TO take pictures OF it; there
are only a few in existence. But,
with all of the efforts made TO keep
secret the interiors of its fortified
tons, the United states has more
than once found that the entire
plans were known TO foreign powers.
Only recently there was picked up
in the streets OF Calcutta bundle
OF blue prints, giving the plans OF all
the Notifications in the Philippines.
The finder turned the package over
TO the American consul who return
ed them TO Washington.
There are many who believe that,
even though the location of the guns
! is JeGlously guarded, the upturning
OF each shovelful of earth is record
ed in foreign capitals.
