LYcEuM THEATRE.

There is hardly person in AmeS' ica who has not read or heard of MT. Robert Hitchins famous book. The Garden of Allah, of which there were over a million and a quarter copies sold. The Liebler Co.,, staged this wonderful production at the Century Theatre, N. r. c. Americas S5,O00.- coo playhouse, at cost of over S200,- GOO It created a wonderful sensa- ton and the dramatic critics rightly called it "The Eighth Wonder of the Worlde
 Mir. J. P Read, Jr., of New York, secured the permission and co-opera- tion of the Liebler Co., to go to the Desert of Sahara in Africa, where the real Garden of Allah is located, so as to secure in motion pictures the ori- ginal scenes and native characters around which the book and play were written. This necessitated his trav- cling over 10000 miles by steamers and autos to secure this one feature him He was accompanied by his moving picture operator, guides, etc, and in many cases used caravans of camels to secure the proper effects. The result was that he was able to obtain over sixty wonderful scenes. many of which it was impossible to produce in the play.
 The strange and mysterious atmos- phere of these desert scenes leaves one with such a vivid impression, that once seen, this picture will never be forgotten, and it is now possible to witness in a short time these wonder full scenes and incidents which took months of travelling and thousands of dollars to secure
 Yesterday these three reels were shown in the Lyceum theater to capa- city houses, drawing the best busi- ness and largest attendance of any special the Lyceum has shown in weeks The feature will be repeated there today by special request. If you haven't seen these reels, don't fail to do so, for they surpass any ,aing of their kind ever offered the people of this city.

AT THE PRINCESS.

Undoubtedly rhe greatest tight wira act appearing in public. is fbe Fonc vans, now playing at the Princess LOT tne iore-paft of the week. There nave been other great wire acts af thls popular theater. and ir orber Vheaters of the city, but there has never been the equal of the Vanis troupe on any stage in the city
 N.tn the Nanis troupe of four peo. pie,' IS without doubt the greatest nel.. former on tight wire now oo inc stage, lady who does some of inc most astounding feats ever witness. ca. Her perlious acts given With such VlVaclty and grace that the audience never ceases to marvel at her won. dertul work. Her dancing on the wire, aeT feat of leaping over large table, alighting on the wire. and her llnal act of leaping into a barrel < height of six feet boye the wire and then leaping from the barrel to the wire again, is one of the great. est teats ever witnessed.
 The Rossdell Singers, vocal trio have a harmonious vocal number. the lrlo composed of two men and a wom. an, singing splendidly in unison. both popular and classy music
 Fields and Fink, in their Hebrew and Italian sketch, present char acter and singing sketch which is fai above the average. Fields, with his of New York Ital- ian on trial for his life. is es specially good, and brought him much merited applause.
 Albert DOnnely, is a shadowgraph artist, who does all his work with his hands and nimble fingers. Some of his shadow pictures are new and novel, in fact the entire act is com posed of new and catchy subjects produced on the screen with the mini. mum of mechanical assistance.
 John T. Murray, billed as a come dian, arrived just iH the nick Of time for the opening matinee. In his haste he must have neglected to bring his comedy with him, or perhaps did not nave sufficient time to get it un. packed for the opening. Some come dians are so original and funny that they are good, and others are so rot ten that they are good It cannot ot truthfully said that Murray has reached either of these extremes up to this time. He may grow-not il length. but in class. Murray is about the length and build of ten foot length Of gas pipe and about as graceful and OriginalI His act takes ul eight minutes of the bill and the audience may serve as jury in his case
 The show contains more than the average of variety, with enough sins ing and music and enough of sensa- tional entertainment to please any one, and it will undoubtedly please all vaudeville lovers.

THE NEW CENTRAL.

When Charles Frohman, several years ago. was at his wits end for a proper Vehicle to introduce Maude Adams, as a star of the first magni tude, BaTry's script of The Little Minister was submitted to him, and alter the initial presentation. Miss Adams became a fixture in the thea. tflcal world The play proved to be one of the most popular ever offered the American public, for it treated Tor romance in a new way Who is there who has not read the book. Few there are who have not seen the play, and now millions daily are gazing in rapt attention at the three reels of moving pictures of this won derful and most fascinating story This is the one best feature of the week in motion photography, and. as usual the New Central offers it as the program for today.
 There isn't a detail of the story that Vitagraph has omitted Tae scenes, it should be understood were taken in England, where Lady Babbie and the little minister" first learned to love each other. One. too will see the iAuld Licht Kick" be- come acquainted with Lord Rintoul sympathize with the striking weav- CTS and note the beauty of the fine country residence at Thrums
 The second reel acquaints one with the power and influence welded by Gavin Dishart, the little m'aister, and we meet for the first time. the character of Rob Dow We see too how Lady Babbie prevents the re- moyal ol Mamie Webster to the poor house and her denunciation Of the little minister" who thinks he is acting for the best.
 The third reel is the most picture esque Of all. for in it Lady Babbie consents to marriage by the ritual of he gypsies, and if ever there was scene staged with regard to detail 1t is this one. Later follows the we'd ding in the 'Auld Licht Kirk This though is not accomplished until Rob Dow saves the little minister" from a wateTy grave, being swept away himself in the current, another fea- ure that will hold ones attention. lt IS a great feature, is this three-reel special and every man, woman and ,hild should see it.

BRONCHITIS SUFFERER
Takes Druggists Advice With
 Splendid Result.

If anyone should know the worth of a medicine, it is the retail druggist who sells it over his counter every day in the week, and is in a position to know what remedy gives the best satisfaction.
 Mrs. Frank Fl. Uline. of West Sand Lake, N. r., says: For number of years l was great sufferer from bronchitis. Last July had an attack which was more severe than any. and my friends thought l could not recover from it. Then I was advised by my druggist to try Vinol, which I did, with wonderful results. My cough has left me; l have gained in weight and appetite, and l am as strong as ever l was. l advise all who have bronchitis. chronic coughs, or who are run down to try Vinol.
 It is the combined action of the medicinal curative elements of the cod's liver, without the greasy oil. aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron that makes Vinol so efficient
 Remember. we guarantee Vinol to do just what we say we pay back your money if it does not
