EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.
A splendid mystery plot leaves the final climax in doubt right to the end in "One Exciting Night, to be finally screened at Everybody's Theatre to-day. The secret is held until the last few minutes of the play, and until this stage there is a series of incidents which have all the excitement of the best ghost stories. The romance in the story is cleverly interwoven with the other features, and concerns a particularly pretty girl, who is, unknown to herself, an heiress, and who becomes engaged to a rogue to save the woman she has always considered to be her mother. It is at this stage that the boy arrives on the scene, and matters become the more exciting, culminating in his arrest for murder. Is he the one responsible for the deaths that take place? That is what the audience has to guess at until the conclusion of the attraction. There is a special supporting programme, and a special musical programme in the evenings. "PAWNED." Tom Moore, in conjunction with Edith Boberts, is seen, in one of the season's most brilliant melodramas, "Pawned," at Everybody's Theatre to-morrow. The story commences in the South Sea Islands, and shifts from there to New York's East Side, where it traverses some of "the most interesting and sinister quarters, showing some of the most noted gambling dens and drug-houses. The star plays the role of a young man who accepts a contract to secretly investigate the suspected shady doings in a series of gambling houses, which are owned by a wealthy international gambler. Included in the supporting features is a • real good comedy entitled "Any Old Port," and the latest topical features. There will be a special musical programme.
