EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.

The main attraction in the new bill at h, very body s Theatre last evening was an adaptation of. Zane Grey's well-Known novel, "Wildfire." The story deals with lite in an American farming district, where the chances'of a horse in the great free-for-all luce are considered more: worthy of conversation than the chances of the season's crops. Attempts to prevent the swiftest horse in the neighbourhood from competing in the great -event are successful, but the villain, who has hopes of annexing the small fortune attaching to the contest, fails to reckon with, a stranger who brings Wildfire, a horse which he has trained from its natural state, to town, and presents it to the owner of the former favourite. Wildfire ridden by the owner's daugVer makes no race of it, but the villain gets: his revenge by kidnapping the girl. Then.: tollows a thrilling- chase in the mountains and the. story ends in a manner calculated to please the" most particular romanticist. ."Faco.to Face," the second picture on the programme, is a mystery story starring Marguerite Marsh and Colt Anderson. The mystery'is worked out in a very pleasing manner, and is left m doubt right until the.' final fadeout. Another episode of the serial, "The limber Queen," is shown, and the hero.; alter many adventures, is ; left at the mercy of four very good rifles iii the hands of four very steady bushmeni Next week will decide his fate. Other I pictures of an interesting description are i also shown. >■■
