EMPRESS THEATRE.
"The Girl-of the Golden' West," now showing at the Empress Theatre,- ie full of incident. Sylvia Breamer, a dainty Australian actress, heads a superb cast, playing opposite her being Russell Simpson as the sheriff, and J. Warren Kerrigan as the gambler whom she loves. Set in/ the early days of the nineteenth century in Ameuica, it is a powerful tale of a woman's conquering love breaking down all barriers. The woman even plays cards with the sheriff for her lovers life. The tension of the play is well sustained through exciting camp and gambling saloon scenes, characteristic of the boom times of America's Golden West.. \ The orchestra, under Mr. M. Dixon features Suppe's overture, 'Paragraph 3," and Mr. Charles Moore, a baritone-with a delightful voice, sings several appropriate songs. Supports in the pictorial line are good.
