Ion Tanners Revenqe-Opera Ho

Lion Tanners Revense-Opera House.
The Feature Offering at che Opera
house, this afternoon and evening con-
tains such subjects that a press agent
fer big circus would delight in eX-
posing his knowledge of flaming adjec-
tlves and elittering detail. "The Lion
Tanners Revenge" an Italian circus
picture taken in California, smacks of
dime novel literature, but is far re-
moved from what it infers by sug-
gestion. This stupenduous picture is
the most exciting and spectacular
thing ever shown in this theater; II
contains two reels of 100 feet each, and
shows a trainers struggle in cage of
20 king of beasts in a stage of rage.
Pathe Weekly with its usual budget
of intensely interesting picture news,
and over the Backyard Fence" a
roaring comedy, will be added TO the
list.
