To describe the Kinemaco1or pie lures, which is but part of the best bill which William Fox has yet offer ed at his Lyric theatre, would require that knowledge of color and tone alone pogsessed by an artist It may be said, however, that it is satisfying to the senses and presents the sublime both in motion picture as we'll as pho tography.
 To see the natural bloom upon the human face, the emerald green of the sea Tightening to the crystal white of the crested wave, the dull gray of the stone, the autumn brown and reds of the foliage, and every variation of color from the shiTnmering silver of the squirmtng fish to the sIambent red of natural fire is reality and not mechanical process.
 That is what is this week and in fu- ture at the Lyric and no greater trib ute to the quality of, the pictures can be offered than was done by the ca : epacity audience last night at two per formances, when after sitting in what may without offense be termed stu pefied amazement, the applause sub our,', 'swonderful,'' ttI don't see how it is done,'' rippled from mouth to mouth with an electric thrill
 The offering of four reels which is promised weekly included the saving of a doctors wife from flames which consumed the hospital in which the surgeons were operating, a sea-scape romance of fsherrnan's s luck, travel scenes in Scotland@ with Coronation Drills of a novel and unique kind. It may be termed the most satisfying, thorough and sgreatest advancement yet displayed in photographic projec- ton.

 williams with his Little Dog Spot which is minute in form but possessed of, an intelligence little short of hu- man, holds the interest of his specta- tors to the finish of an enthusiastically appealing presentation.
 Lambert and Van are two clever boys in q bright line of songs and batter. While Kay and Kay proved a topnotch team, with late songs and plenty of harm ony.
 Lawrence and Tanner have a very odd country skit in which both show talent along entirely different lines. OIde Brothers close the show as a couple of Chinamen acrobats. They spring a bright line of comedy and some good Kinks"
 Of extreme importance and showing a desire to elevate the general pro duction is the appearance of a re- Juvenated orchestra under the able di- rection of Bernie Noble, a violinist of note and a leader acquainted with the taste of the public well as the bus iness' of the stage. The ordinary black and white picture was not over
