BREED THEATER.
"The Filibuster's Ship," Pathe Amer.
 lean Sensational Feature.

In this big feature picture there figures the schooner Sophia, sailing on filibustering expedition with a cargo of gunpowder. One of the crew be- ing an habitual drunkard, by the name of Carter, kills the skipper in a fit of anger, and in the drunken brawl that follows, the big ship is blown to atoms by the exploding gunpowder. The story Is especially well acted, and the final scene in particular leaves nothing in the way of entertaining excitement to be desired.
 The Essanay company Is to the front again. with one of their high class western productions, An Indian Sun beam, by name. It has an all-absorb- Ing plot dealing with a little pioneer ichild. who is brought up by the red men. It is distinctly an Indian story and abounds in situations that are thrilling and picturesque.
 Miss Edith R. Marshall, the dainty instrumental soloist has been secured for return engagement; a fact that will please all of the patrons of the Breed.
