AMUSEMENTS Mg vee What the Press Agents Say About Coming Attractions "NAME THE MAN.) "Uame the Man!", Sir Hall Caine's latest drama to be transferred to the |= screen, now being presented at ths | Capitol Theatre, takes rank with] the best pictures of the year. The story, adapted from ""The Master of Man," is replete with dra-| matic action. It carries one | through the hearts of its people. Iti deals with both the lowly and the great--and the intermingling of the two. And though the observer is totally unconscious of the photo- graphy, it is surpassingly beautiful. Although this is the first American picture to be' made by Victor Sea- strom, the Swedish director, he has delivered a master stroke. He deals with realities--with real people whom everyone has met and known. His directidn is sympgthetic at all times. Ho has hat the action each character, when flashed upon the .screem, car- ries the story forward with swift movement. Like the photography, one is totally unconscious of the di- rector, and yet when this photo- drama is analyzed, he is present at all times. Mae Busch triumphs again in this, her second Hall Caine story--she having played Glory Qaayle in "The Christian." Miss Busch's perform- ance has the very desirable ele- ment of "abandon," and yet at no time does she even hint at overact- ing. Her pathos is superb--especi- ally her tears in the rain Conrad Nagel as the Deemser's| son emerges with many laurels also. | His action is repressed, and yet strong. Patsy Ruth Miller has a very sym- pathetic role and handles it in a] manner to add new praise to her name, "THE SILENT COMMAND" | BIG SEA SPECTACLE | "The Silent Command," the Wil- liam Fox special directed br J. Gor- don Edwards, at the Strand Theatre to-day and Wednesday, is a specta-| cular melodrama of unusual magni-/ tude and novel plot. The leading players are Edmund Lowe, , Beia Lugosi, Alma Tell, Betty Jewel and | Martha Mansfield. Ensemble scenes | are numerous and there are sea epi-| sodes that are guaranteed to stir the blood of the beholder. STOCK MARKETS (Reported by Johnston & Ward, 86 Princess street.

ARLIE MARKS' COMPANY Opens Engagement at the Grand--*'Rosie O'Grady" Again This Evening. - The Arlle Marks Stock Company opened a four weeks' engagement at the Grand Opera House on Monday evening, when it presented that Irish play "Rosie O'Grady" to a capacity house . It was an Irish play and the Irish who were present certainly en- joyed it to the limit. Miss Marks, who played the title role, has a de- lightful Irish brogue that should be the delight of any Irish heart. Lindsay E. Perrin, manager of the company, made the very pleasing an- nouncement to the effect that the company intends to remain in King- during that time the policy of the company will be to have a change of show three times a week. There will be bargain matinees for the chil- dren and adults on Wednesday and Saturday with a top price at twenty- five cents. Miss Arlie Marks has been indeed fortunate in gathering around her a number of expert vau- deville artists, who will entertain the patrons of the Grand between acts. Mr. Perrin stated. that there would be five vaudeville acts, and if the ones which were presented on Monday are an indication of those to follow, they will be very much fine order Indeed. For the sole purpose of giving the Kingston audiences the best that stock companies can produce, Arlie her two shows into one, and they will remain as such during the entire run at the Grand. There are also a number of splendid scenic effects which will add greatly to the productions. Miss Arlie Marks {n the role of "Rosy O'Grady" was the outstanding player and she was loudly applauded by the appreciative audience. Ade- laide Secord in the role of Mother O'Grady was exceptionally good. Paul Brady, who has not appeared in Kingston before, filled the part of George Reynolds, Lindsay E. Per- of Miss Arlie Marks, won a warm place in the hearts of the Kingston audiences on his last appearance, and on Monday evening he appeared as Bushnell Oakman. The others appearing in the cast were H. W. Chamberlain, Louis Addel, Walter DeLuna, Peggy Logan, W, L. Philips, Clarence Kane and George Carruth. The three vaudeville acts which were given hetween the acts, were of a very high quality. Although it was an Irish night the Scotch act seemed to be most appreciated by the audience and a number of en- cores had to be given, The playing of the bag pipes was exceptionally good. The following took part in the vaudeville: Clarence Kane, George Carruth, Peggy Logan, Wal- ter De Luna, Louise Addel and W. L. Phiilips. Mr. Perrin announced that among the western states. He promised his audience that it will be one of the top notch productions which has been presented by any stock com- pany in Kingston, "Rosy O'Grady" will be presented at the Grand again this evening.

Cecil M., winner of the named race, after losing the first heat, had no trouble in taking the next three in that same old style of his." Onco a good horse, always-a gogd horse, is dn ever-true saying, and suits no steed better than it does Cecil M.
