AMUSEMENTS What the Press Agents Say About Coming Attractions A STREAM OF ACTION The glory that was Spain's now belongs to Douglas Fairbanks, who 'has captured it and put it into his i [new photoplay, "Don il | Zorro,' Q. Son which is the featured at-| {traction which opens at the Capital Theatre to-day. is the graceful though {swift unfolding of the adventures of a young Spaniard who is sent to his motherland from California, there to il finish his education. How he meets and wooes a gorge- lous senorita; how he captures a bull i} running rampant in the streets; how ihe fights a duel with the villain; how he performs astounding feats Hl {with a stock whip; how he becomes acused of the murder of a visiting archduke; how he then turns into the mysterious and much-hunted Don Q; ----these and innumerable other an- {gles furnish a plot of many compli- cated twists that keys audience inter- est to a high pitch. The climax of "Don Q, Son of Zorro," Fairbanks' latest United Artists' Corporation feature, is one of the most thrilling, unique, and at the same tife humorous, that has ever been presented. As a matter jof fact, were it not for the comedy [reltet furnished in the star's laugh- jable pranks, the tension of the ple- ture would Je too great a tax on any audience. SIR JOHN MARTIN HARVEY IN "THE CORSICAN BROTHERS" "The Corsican Brothers," to be played by Sir John Martin Harvey at the Grand. Theatre, Wednesday evening, April 28th, is the story of twin brothers, alike in appearance and so closely knit spiritually and mentally that even when &£bsent from each other, each one knew the other's doings and thoughts to a great extent, and suffered for each other when there was trouble. They loved or hated the same people, and each one knew that if the other died the departed one would at qnce ap- pear to the other. This, with the {mysterious and superstitions of Cor- sica, is. the groundwork of the story, wherein they both loved the same woman---who married someone else.
