AMUSEMENTS

POLLARD'S PICTURES, • ■ To-night Pollard's will screen for the last, time in the Opera House, "Prudence *on Broadway, ' ' starring Oli ve Thomas, and the "Poppy" comedy, "Fozy Ambrose." On Friday and Saturday "PUT UP YOUR HAND'S." will be screened. On Friday and Saturday evening, and at the matinee on Saturday, Pollard's will present the new American Pathc film drama, 'Tut Up Your Hands," and the 14th ('.he last but one) episode of "Mystery 13." "Put Up Your Hands" is not, as the title would suggest, a piece of thrilling gun-play. The moral of the ■•?tory really is that weak women should earn the noble art so that in cases of emergency they can "put 'em up." There are other morals besides, as for example, how the American, saloons .;an be made attractive to the public luring the Great Drought, but in the main the play is a breezy Western mining story, with .a red-blooded girl j'rom a blue-blooded family as tho :entre figure of a number of lively and unusual incidents. Pretty Margarita Fisher appears as an athletic girl with a love for boxing, and during the course of some lively adventures challenges all comers at a Miners' Temperance Rest Room. A feature of .he play is the excellence of the setting, the mountain scenery being .particularly fine, while some of the scenes ue highly amusing. i )
