COLONIAL THEATRE.
The Sea Wolf, Jack London's Seven.
 Reel Shipwreck Feature.

Without doubt the seasons biggest motion picture sensation is offered to- day at the Colonial theatre. It is Jack London's great shipwreck story enti- tied The Sea Wolf, and is in seven reels. Everyone is familiar with the story, which deals with Wolf Larsen, captain of The Ghost, a sealer bound for Japan. Humphrey Van Weyden, a literateur and critic of note, is on the ferry which collides with The Ghost in San Francisco harbor and is one of the very few persons saved and taken aboard of the sealer. The Wolf is notorious for his cruelty. and yet these two people are brought together. all through he dual personality of the Wolf They read poetry and philoso- phlze together, all to the pleasure of both. Later a shipwrecked party is picked up. and among them is Maud Brewster, a society girl. She upsets the equilibrium of the crew, particular iy the two men in question. Wonderful scenes follow, mutiny takes place, and the craft headed for Yokohama, be- comes a veritable seething mass of struggling passengers, all under the control of the terrible Wolf. Through the seven reels the photography is marvellous and the acting of the most finished sort. The great denouement IS the finest bit of acting ever pre- sented on the screen The prices for today are matinee 10c, evening 10c.

Popular Lectures.


 By those whose recollection of events In Norwich takes them back a num- Der Of years 1t will be remembered With pleasure that a series of lectures was presented every season for sveral years to the great enjoyment and ben o ent or all who heard them. In mare recent times few opportunities of this sort have been offered. and the en- thusiastic reception of such occasion al lectures as have been presented has led to the belief that Norwich peorIe are anxious for more entertainments of this nature. Through the generos- 1ty Of several Norwich gentlemen, yh, have subscribed to financial guar antee, the Slater Hall Course of Pop ular Lectures has been arranged for this fall. with the end in view of meeting this obvious demand. The course has been planned with the pur- pose of presenting a variety of sub jects, by the lecturers best oualified to give them in 8 manner to enter tain and interest Norwich audience.
 This course is in the nature of an experiment, and if it's success Is sui Hcient it may become permanent in st1tut1on in the calendar of events in for the benefit of the public, such sur plus over expenses as there may be Will be devoted to financing a similar course next year.
 The interest already manifested as a result of preliminary announcements assures the success of this excellent course. That it is an opportunity which our people are quick to appre- clate, is already evident. and it would be well to make reservations prompt ". Tickets may be obtained at the store of MT: George A. Davis, 25 Broadway. Course tickets entitle purchasers to reserved seats. Single admission tickets will not be reserved
