QUEEN'S THEATRE.

■''The Loves of Pharaoh" will be finally screened to-day at the Queen's THeatre. It was necessary to study the manners and clothing^ ot ancient Egyptians, as well as the Ethiopians, to discover the character of their habitations, and to design clothes and weapons and background for something like a hundred thousand persons before this picture, could be properly staged. The, supporting programme is a comprehensive one. " SINGER JIM M'KEE."

Scenery always lends a keen zest to a photoplay. There is something about the magnificent sweep of the wide open valleys; the thrill of illimitable spaces, wide mountains, and the sight of the pines a-play in the high winds that gives a .thrill and a power to a photoplay. Some of the most beautiiul and inspiring Western scenery that has sver been photographed is seen in "Singer Jim M'Kee," William S. Halt's new Paranibunt picture, to be shown at the Queen's Theatre to-morrow. Penetrating into the high Sierras in California, the company secured scenes that have all the grandeur and inspiration of the leal.virgin mountain scenery. The Hart production unit spent several weeks on location in the mountains, with headquarters in the picturesque town • of SdnoraJ the actual locations of the story. The results are scenes that seem to' breathe the very essence of the real wilderness. Phyllis Haver plays opposite in the leading woman's role. Bert Sprotte, Russell Gordon, and others are also in the cast. An excellent supporting programme will be screened, while the music will be provided by the Queen's Grand Orchestra, under the direption of Mr. A. H. Jerome. The box plan'is at The Bristol.
