BRITANNIA THEATRE.
Harold Bell Wright's enthralling story, "The Mine* with the Iron Boor," and Doris Kenyon in "The Unguarded Hour" are being finally screened at the Britannia Tneatre this evening. Commencing tomorrow, Robert Keable's sensational sequel to "Simon Called Peter," "Recompense," will be the attraction. It lays bare the soud of man and woman, and tells of the lives of Peter Graham and Julie Gamelyn, telling the anguish a woman bore for the man of her heart. The mad confusion of after-war days, the hellish primitive wilderness of Africa, and $he mental morass of inward struggle are combined in a thrilling tale. Patrons are urged to book their seats for this attraction. The other attraction is a melodramatic novelty that has more human appeal than the usual melodrama. The picture is "The Silent Accuser." It is an innovation in screen entertainment in that it makes use of a situation never done before. A highly intelligent police dog, Peter the Great, is the only witness of the murder of the heroine's stepfather. Through the dog's almost human instinct the hero escapes from prison after hejias been accused falsely of the crime. Subsequently, in a story filled with adventure, romance, intrigue, and thrills, ' the dog and the heroine, who dresses as a boy, assist the hero in catching the real criminal. The'supports are excellent.
