Going Fast WHY SHOULDN'T THEY ? A CHOICE COLLECTION of THE DAILY BRITIS e! Theatrical Jm-- | At the Grand. | "A Burglar for a Night," the! latest picture in which the popular | screen star, Warren Kerrigan, plays | the leading role, will be seen at the | Grand for the last time to-night. | The play is a delightful romance of "big business," in which the star, to | save his father from the schemes of some of his enemies, plays burglar | and robs a safe of some important documents with which to defeat the men who would ruin those he loved. In stealing the evidence he is inter- | rupted and has to kidnap the girl | he loves, and the picture that fol- | lows from this point is one that will | satisfy the most critical. There is | another extra fine feature, entitled | "The Battler,"" starring Earl Med- | calf and Virginia Hammond. It is | the story of an east side prize fight- | er, and his wonderful fight to save | the woman he loves from her brutai | husband. The picture carries one | from the slums of the east side to | the wealthy homes of society, and is | crammed with swift action that holds the audience throughout 'the entire five reels. The stars are sup- | causing damage to an aeroplane, ee -- SOMETHING REAL NEW IN JUVENILE COURT = Youngsters Were Accused of Damaging an Aeroplane. Magistrate Farrell had something real new at a session of the juvenile court, on Wednesday morning. Four little boys appeared on a charge of which has been holding forth on Reid's farm. This is the first charge of this nature that has come before a local court. The lads denied knowl- edge of the affair, and were allowed to go. It appears that boys have been amusing themselves by pitching stones at the flying maching and oth- erwise mutilating the flier. St. George's Cathedral, A.Y.P.A. St. George's cathedral branch of the A.Y.P.A. held a delightful social and musicale in St. George's hall last evening. An especially fine program was rendered, thanks to the energetic effort of Miss E. Billings ani Rev. W. E. Kidd. Those who took part were: R. R. Harvey, piano solo; P. Fair, W. Lower, Miss Ruby Buell and Miss E. E. Billings, vocal solos; Miss V. Posselthwaite and F. Rogers, re- citations. Mr. Harvey and Miss Hugh- H WHIG.
