The William Fox special produc- tion of Mark Twain's "A Connecti- cut Yankee in King Arthur's Court," which opened an engagement last night at the Allen Theatre, deserves to rank withthe best picturization of famous literary classics which Mr. Fox has given to the public. It made a remarkable impression on an en- thustastic audience. "A Connecticut Yankee' is a classic, It has been translated faith- fully to the screen, and all the rol- Heking humor of the book is height- ened by the visual appeal. ; Mark Twain was not a humorist alone; in each of his books, even the nniest, he pleaded a cause. In "A nnecticut. Yankee" he argues for the modern way of doing things, pha proves 'that we are lucky to be ng to-day and not in the days of old when knights were bold, * Martin Cavendish, the Yankee, His druggist sold him Acid corn remedy, him good old reliable Putnam's Corn or, which has been for _afty years the standard remover of corns and warts.

"Dangerous Lles", the Paramount Pictures with a story specially writ- ten by E. Phillips Oppenheim was followed eagerly by a large audience at the Strand last night. David Pow- ell, the leading player ,appeared in a new role, that of hero, and many sald they liked David just as well in this as in one of his typical villain parts. In a word, he is a versatile artist, who has so far proved equal to- every tdsk assigned him on the screen. Mary Glynn is the best known member of the supporting cast, and her impersonation of Joan Farrant is a notable pliece of work. Nothing in the production evoked warmer praise than some of the lovely scenes of the English country side, filmed on the spot. "Never Weaken" is the title of the Harold Lloyd comedy showing at the Strand, and the first screening last night was punctuated with roars of merriment. From the gymnastic point of view this is one of the most amasing pieces of work Harold has ever done, while from the fun standpoint it is one of his best.

At onme-thirty, this morn- ing, lights had to be turned out amidst cries of more encores. Sec- ond concert is sold out. Only ina- bility to change her route makes a third concert impossible." All the other western cities visited {by Dame Butt since her Vancouver | concert have shown the same enthus- i asm and repeat concerts would have | been necessary to accommodate all the music lovers who had been un- {able to gain admittance to the first. | Tickets for her only concert in King- | ston are now selling at Uglow's Bookstore, Princess street.--Advt.
