ENTERTAINMENTS.
GRAND THEATRE—TO-NIGHT. “THE VENGEANCE OF PIERRE.” Do you remember the hair-raising fight in that old picture “The Flame of the Yukon?” Do you recall the cheerprovoking baseball moment in “The Pinch Hitter,”, one of Charles Ray’s early pictures ? Do you bring to mind the tense football moment in the film version De Mille’s “Strongheart,” Robert Edeson’s famous stage starring vehicle? You may often have longed for another such blood-tingling entertainment. Well, it’s-coming to you in “The Vengeance of Pierre,” which closes a two days engagement to-niglit at the Grand Theatre. In this production, Lester Cune o, the six-foot athletic star, is seen as a North woodsman wrestler, and he goes into a rough and tumble mix-up that is going to travel down film history with these other athletic touches of fame. Henry McCarthy has provided a story that elecits our praise, hut he has given us a fight that fairly makes us love him. An excellent supporting programme will be presented.
