BREED THEATER.
A Rsm.rkabls Historical Photo play

4 ReFuRFkabIe Historical Photo play.
 There are many so-called "historicaT phOto- plays that are historical in title orly. The subjects are but fantasies founded upon fact but without regard 10 accuracy of the events or episodes depicted. They may be pictorial nov els but they are hardly of any educa- tional value. It has remained for the Selig Polyscope company to make a film that would at once be photograph icaIly perfect and historically accurate. Such a film is the remarkable produc- tion of "The Coming of Columbus. This is 8 three-reel film, the making of which entailed years of research and labor, employed a cast of $50 people and cost s5o,000.
 Such records of his voyage and the discovery of the western hemisphere as Columbus left were followed as closely as possible in the making of this wonderful photo-play. Every fa- cdlity of the greatest motion picture plant in the world was utilized The duplicates of the three caravels, San to Maria, Pino and Nina, which the Spanish nation had built and present. cd to the American nation, were fitted with sails and made seaworthy by William Selig and employed in the production. Even the original log book used by Columbus is shown.
 The early vicissitudes of Columbus ars depicted. His pleadings before the Spanish court, his final commission to go forth on his exploration of the un- known seas. the incidents of the voy- age, the landing on American soil, the return to Spain and the great re- oept1on are all faithfully portrayed by competent actors and recorded by the camera. There is not one defect in the entire production. which is the Rrandest masterpiece in the history of the motion picture industry. It is not known definitely as yet whether this remarkable three-reel masterpiece can be secured for exhibition purposes in this city, but the Breed theater is making every effort, and offering large sums of money to secure this feature for its patrons and expects to be able to make a favorable announcement within a few days.

Ne. s of the Famous 1O1 Bison Films

ah AHN FAAAANga lAAba
 The first three days of this week, the Auditorium is offering an excellent proeramme of high class vaudeville and feature ph0toplays, headed by The Crisis" a two-reel I01-Bison production.
 It is not necessary to say anything about tahe magnificent scale these films arc produced, as the patrons of the Auditorium are acquainted with these masterpieces, but the plot or story of The Crisis Is a little better arranged than the former productions of this company, which were almost perfect. Sufice to say that the plot deals with the regeneration of the ministers son, who is fast falling lower through drink and gambling, every day. At drink and gambling, every day. At the can go. he sees the light, and by a series of heroic deeds succeeds in re- deemtng his past errors. There are Indians and cowboys by the hundreds, also a detachment of cavalry, while the scenic effects are beautiful.
 A most pleasing rural comedy sketch entitled At Clifton Corners, will be one of the vaudeville offerings. This act is presented by the well known team of Ford and Hyde, whose coun- try characterizations are true to life Special scenery is carried for this act
 A single act of the highest quality is that presented by Rouble Sims, the well known cartoonist. MT. Sims is the creator of many funny pictures seen in the daily papers, and he vii give the people of Norwich an idea O.: how a cartoonist works. MT. Sim: is also a funny comedian and a goo( singer The third act on the bill is a screamingly funny team, namely Pis. ano and Bingham, who offer their owr Idea. entitled The Dago and the Irisl Queen. The combination of two suci widely different characters is laugh. able in the extreme.
 Besides the big two-reel Bison 10. feature. there will be other photo. plays. both comedy and dramatic.
 The atmosphere of the Auditorium fl kept delightfully."- cool by their nev electric apparatus, designed for tn, purpose, and one can enjoy the enter tainment in comfort
