AMUSEMENTS.

OPERA HOUSE—MATINEE AND NIGHT. COLLEEN MOORE IN “TWINKLETOES”; also “THE COLLEGIANS.” A throng of strange colourful characters from the page of one of Thom is Burke’s most famous Limehouse stories appears with Colleen Moore In “Twinkletoes” her latest production, which comes to the Opera House today (Matinee) and again to-night. Chinese and Malays, Hindus and Lascars and Cockney costermongers; exotic holy men and thieves and thugs; dregs of London and flotsam of the seven seas, plying curious trades and pursuits in the narrow crooked streets along the Limehouse waterfront, all arc shown. The leading man is Kenneth Harlan as the champion pugilist of London. Gladys Brockwell plays one of those warped, passionate creatures of the slums. Warner Gland is suave and oily as the Quayside Theatre manager. Tully Marshall, as “Old Pot and .Pan”; Julianne Johnstone, as a dancer; Lucian Littlefield, as a wonderful old tippler; giant John Kolb., as a longshoreman, round out the cast. McKANE’S HALL, COBDEN. TO-NIGHT. “ONE INCREASING PURPOSE.” The main attraction to be shown c* McKane’s Hall, Cobden, to-night, will be the wonderful William Fox special, “One Increasing Purpose,” also the latest one of “The Collegians” series.
