PRINCESS THEATRE.
Jules Verne's genius . plus dramatic acting, plus - picturesque screening, equals "Waiting for Dawn," the Universal feature which opened to-day at the Princess . Theatre. The picture ,: is adapted from Verne's celebrated novel, "Mathias Sandorf," and has retained all the beauty, thrill, and daring which made tho book famous. The characters .have been admirably cast, especially in the case of Bomuald Joube; whose interpretation of Mathias Sandorf'is full of deep -understanding rand ' dramatic value. .Namir, the-dancing girl, enacted % Madame Djemil-Anik- is gripping and real. The slave market, - the dance ot jNTamir, and the thrilling struggle between . Saya, and Sarcany are incidents that will live long in the memory of all who see^them.,: In the second picture May M'Avoy and Lois Wilson are starred m "Only 38," The' remaining pictures are also good. .'..-.
