Griffith's latest spectacle, "Phe Flying Torpedo" at the Strand yesterday. The Flying Torpedo 1s one of the most spectacular dramas yet produced and shows most vivid- ly what can be accomplished by the | use of the "Wireless Torpedo."

A three-part Key- stone comedy, "The Village Black- smith," "Cured," a one-reel Lubin comedy and the Selig Tribune of latest current events completed a bill that has both quality and var- | iety and one that is well worth see- | ing.
