Just at this point of the opera the Duke and Duc- hess of Plaza-Toro do not seem to ag- ree as to whether they had in their Own marriage, chosen wisely or not. e dialogue is exceptionally comical. Mr. A. G Self plays the part of the Duke of Plaza-Toro, a pompous gran: dee of Spain. Another very valuable member of the cast is Mrs. Hubert Horton who takes the part of "Inez" the gypsy foster mother gf the real king of Bara- taria. Mrs. Horton lends all the sweet- ness of her lovely contralto voice to her song and figures brilliantly in an intensely dramatic scene in the second act. The whole cast of the Gondoliers has been most carefully selected and rarely, if ever, will Kingston people have the opportunity of hearing an ag- gregation of finer voices.

Western Matt Moore gives a splendid perfor- mance in the role of Simon Haldane, the eccentric bachelor, presenting a humorous appearance in glasses and moustache. As a charming contrast, Dorothy Devore imbues her characterization of the mysterious woman, with winsome mischievousness that is very appeal- ing The supporting cast, includes With Alice Terry and Conway Tearle group at the Capitol. There have been few pictures which have brought so great a message as that which is presented on the screen at the Capitol Theatre where the pro- duction. "The Great Divide is to be shown, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. How three men gamble for a girl, with one ultimately coming out vic- torious, how she is then bought for a string of gold nuggets and how she struggles to regain her freedom by getting possession of the nuggets is told in a forceful way. - The cast is full of interesting names and the performances are all excellent, though perhaps the two which stand out the most are those of Alice Terry, who plays Ruth Jordon, and Conway Tearle, cast as Stephen Ghent. Theirs are the most important parts and the tremendous mental conflict between them is unlike anything that has been witnessed on the screen before. Wallace Beery as Dutch and George Cooper as Shorty are likable heavies, and ZaSu Pitts as Polly brings out a pessimistic part prominently forward, which' adds much comedy. William Orl d as Lon is ludicrously funny while Huntly Gordon, as Philip Jor- don, and Allan Forrest as Dr, Winth- rop Newbury, have roles of importance which have been justifiably entrusted to them. / Reginald Barker directed the pro- Superiors Defeat Chown's.
