Therefore living up to the title, "Nobody's Fool."-----Advt. Pearl White is a Hit. Seldom does a photoplay so pro- foundly stir an audience as "The White Moll," in which Pearl Whita appears as a Fox star at the Grand Opera House to-night, Friday and Saturday. It is Miss White's first ap- pearance in a big special screen pro- duction. she having abandoned ser- fals. She is seen in one of the most powerful stories ever shown on the sllver sheet. ' As interpreted by Miss White and a cast of notable strength, "The Whita Moll" carries a gripping ap- peal which holds the spectator spell- bound. The picture is based on the famous story by Frank L. Packard, author of "The Miracle Man," and the adroitness with which 'the tre- mendous theme has been worked ont in the scenario, written by E, Lloyd Sheldon. raises the picture to tp. ! level of a classic. The story is laid in the under- world, where Rhoda, a' reformed crook---played by Pearl White---re- celves a fortune from a rich man for , settlement work, and starts out to re- deem the gangsters and thieves, 3ae becomes interested in "The Spar- TOW," a released convict who is hm ing forced back.into the old lifa by "The Darngfler," * leader of the . crooks. She 'obtaips the help 6 The Plug," a member of the gang whom she aids after hg has been stabbed; and, althofigh she has several thrill. ing escapes from death, she event- ually accomplishes her purpose and also wins love and happiness. Ths production opens with a short pro- logue in which an intensely drama- tic church scene, in the form of a vis- ion, is presented. 'Pearl White injects into her work y all the screen magnetism which she possesses and is admiralfly support- ed by.a cast headed by Richard ©: Travers. Harry Millarde directed the pleture, which is superbly staged.-- Adve, x ------ Sir Martin Harvey, When the distinguished English actor-manager, Sir John Martin Har= Vey, appears 'at the Grand Opera House here on Tuesday, May 10th, he will be seen in one of the roles which he has made classic upon the English speaking stage,--that of The Rat in "The Breed of the Treshams' It is not often that a great actor can achieve such distinction as will out- live him in many roles, but Martin Harvey can confidently count upon his reputation lasting for many de- cades in this distinctive character- part. Wherever the English stage has made its influence' known, his posi- tion is recognized, and in no more vividly colored portrayals than these two. As "The Rat" swashbuckling young gallant of un- enviable reputation, the natural son of a certain Lord Tresham, who is led, through the refining influence of his natural brother's beautify] fin- ance, to accomplish deeds foreign to his reputation, and whose entire na- ture undergoes a strange transforma- ------ "Spring Weakness Is Overcome and the blood purified and vitaligeq by Hood' Ss Sarsa- parilla he depicts a THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. en Dale;-ofie-of the best-known dramu={-- | Ra Opera House Monday, May 9th. er atastatngsr sl} tion to a higher and nobler type be- cause of the affection that grows up between them.--Advt. : At the Griffin.

S¢ Hart. House Peters, Enid Markey," J. Barnet Sherry and a big cast of players. It is full of pep from start to the finsl flicker. William S. Hart, the popular actor of wild west roles, makes a novel appearance as the westerner who'doens evening clothes and is quite at ease in metropolitan society in "Between Men". To make the con- trast more vivid Hart is first seaa wearing the wide stetson, the Buck- skin shirt and corduroy trousers of a mining man. Then he comes to New York to the rescue of a friend who is in the toils of a Wall street operator. Other added attractions are "His Model Day," a two reel comedy whi'h is a scream to the finish.

Charlie Chaplin, in "The Kid," continues. to draw enormous crowds to the Strand, and judging trom their happy faces they must have had the event of their lives. Charlie has out- done himself in this supreme comedy, not only has he the power to make you shriek with laughter, but has developed a gift to produce emotion in the hearts of his audiences. Many a tear was shed by those who witnes- sed this unusual comedy, but they laughed away their tears in the next scene. Some may say, "Whaddya mean?" a sob, in a Chaplin comedy? Well--, see for yourself. Without-a shadow of a doubt "The Kid" is the biggest and best comedy thé world has ever seen, and will live in your memories for years. Miss Phyllis Devlin, soprano, sang in a very charming manner, while the famous Strand orchestra, under dir- ection of Miss Mignon Telgmann, left nothing to he desired. Coming next Monday and Tuesday, the season's biggest event, Cecile B. de- Mille's BOrgeous romance of married life, "Forbidden Fruit," supported by an all-star cast.
