SHORTT'S PICTURES.
In an attractive new programme at Shortt's Continuous Picture Theatre "The Web," a Vitagraph drama, stands out as a picture of unusual merit. It tells how Lester Phillips determines to disentangle himself from Beatrice Esmond, whose lover Zolan, is wildly jealous of him. Beatrice incites Zolan to poison the mind of Agatha Remington, who is engaged to Lester. Finally the two quarrel and Zolan shoots Beatrice, and Lester Phillips is arrested for the murder. Through Agatha's cleverness, and Lester's brother's help, Lester is cleared, and the guilt is fixed upon the real culprit: " The Heart of a Doll " is a pretty story, in which a clever child plays the leading part. Among other excellent pictures are "Trip to the Nile Dam " (scenic), " Gaumont Graphic," and "A Chip of the Old Block" (comedy).
