AMUSEMENTS

OPERA HOUSE—TO-NIGHT. Monte Blue and May McAvoy both have talking roles in the new picture which will be seen and.heard at the Opera House to-night. Blue is shown as a Western railroad man in charge of the construction of a huge bridge across a treacherous river. Dainty May McAvoy co-stars in the role of the society daughter of the railroad president, who falls in love with the burly construction engineer. The sound reproduction at the Opera House is exceptionally clear, and every word spoken by the players in “No Defence” can be understood with-

out undue straining of the ears. MATINEE SATURDAY.
