NEW MOVING PICTURES
Gettysburg at the Grand, Cap,
tain Scott at Lyric.

The Battle OF Gettysburg" now being
presented from fve-reel moving picture
film at the Grand opera House. affords
truly generous evening entertainment, a $
it combines a thrilling panorama OF dra-
matte incident. with an accurate history
of the famous three-day battle. The pic
lures. which were made on the scene Of
the conflict. are admirably staged. and
the charges and maneuyreS, requiring
large bodies Of troops have been well
handled. Throughout the entire series Of
pictures the MANAGEMENT has adhered
closely 10 the actual history Of the posi-
tons Of the armies. and the uniforms and
equipment Of the men are correct to the
smallest detail. Picketts famous charge
IS reproduced with all its vivid thrills and
tragic incidents. The interest Of the
battles and skirmshes Is intensified by
the bursting shell and heavy clouds Of
powder smoke. that add the finishing
touch OF realism TO the reproduction.
Woven in with the series OF scenes is a
battlefield romance, with a happy ending.
which comes as an agreeable bit Of human
interest after the grim happenings at the
end OF the long struggle.
Inc Story or captain SCCtt ana MS udSn
TO the South Pole is told in a series Of
admirable moving pictures at the Lyric.
accompanied by an interesting lecture 10y
Ernest Torrance. who is one Of the few
lecturers with sufficient sense of humor
to make himself amusing AZ times. as
well as instructive. The pictures show
the life and habits of Captain Scott and
his party in their quarters in the Antarc-
tic up 10 within a short time OF his heroic
death. They were recorded by Herbert
G. Pointing. the official artist OF the ex-
petition. Besides the many scenes of
Captain Scott and his companions, VINO
are followed through thrilling adventures
over the perilous ice fields there are
number Of scenes showing the animal life
Of the region. Some Of these are quite
amusing. especially the peculiar antics Of
the penguins, a species OF bird that man
ages 10 live and thrive on the desolate ice
crags These birds give in many OF their
actions. faithful caricature OF certain
rather obese types Of humans, and their
ouarrels and love affairs are quite laugh
able 10 see. The pictures will be shown
every afternoon and evening throughout
the summer.

done none can tell, but the cover is OIL
and Houdini free in less than two min
