call of something good" as it did
last night at the Hippodrome. The
big theatre was packed and not all
who wanted to see the remarkable
play, The Prisoner of Zenda," could
get seats. 1t was necessary after
the first performance to ask the aud
fence to make exit through the rear
doors of the theatre because of the
great crowds which filled the spacious
lobby. Tonight the same four-reel
feature picture is to be shown anS
the house will no doubt be filled to
capacity at both performances as it
was last night.
Regarding the picture itself, it can
be readily said that nothing more at
tractive has been shown on the cur
tain of a local moving picture house
since the advent of the movies" in
Keokuk. James K Hackett plays the
leading role in THE Prisoner Of
Zenda," and his performance is sc
realistic that the audience cannot
help but applaud. Those who have
read the book are naturally more in
terested in the play than others, but
! the drama is one which appeals tt
every one, book or no book, as evi
denced by the full houses, THURSDAY
