KING'S THEATRE.

William de Mille's newest Paramount production, "Locked Doors," featuring Betty Compson, Theodore Roberts, Kathlyn Williams, Theodore yon Eltz, and Robert Edeson in the principal roles, comes to the King's Theatre tonight. The story is a domestic drama lightened with many bright comedy touches, and tells of what happens when a young architect falls in love with the beautiful wife of his friend and benefactor. They both meet, neither knowing the identity of the other, at a trout stream way back in the mountains. It is a case of love at first sight, youth calling to youth. But it is not until the boy is invited to his employer's home and there finds out who the girl really is that trouble begins. , Ther? is a great fire scen6 during which the architect is trapped in Mary's (Miss Compson's) room. The husband comes in search of his -wife and finds the pair together. There is a fight—or, rather, a fight starts, but when the young fellow refuses to defend himself a strange thing happens. Supporting the big picture is a choice array of films, including a Burton Holmes travelogue, an Australian Government film, and an excellent comedy. A well-chosen musical programme will hi rendered by the King's Select Orchestra under the baton of Mr. A. H. Jerome. A full orchestral matinee will be held to-morrow at 2.30.
