AMUSEMENTS

EMPIRE THEATRE TO-NIGHT “DARING CHANCES” Perilous chases at breakneck speed through the rocky Sierras; a bronchobreaking, and lassooing—hairsbreadth rescue on the brink of a. high cliff, a rodeo, crammed with strenuous feats in bulldogging, bronchobreaking, and lassooing—these are the outstanding features of “Daring Chances,” Jack Hoxie’s latest Universal western thriller. Under all the thrills is a poignant human story. Jack Ho.xi?, as the hero of the new" play, has a part that fits him like a glove, aside from the dangerous tilings he does on his great white horse, Scout, such as the rescue of the little girl from the madman's arms at the edge of the precipice; the mad dash over the rocks after the bandits and tlie rodeo itself, hurling thrill on thrill to a romantic conclusion, leaving one pleasure. Comedies and News. Usual prices. Theatre Royal—“lluggles of the Red Gap.” With Ruggles of Red Gap you have a sure fire entertainment special. No one will be able to resist the humour of the situation, in which an English valet finds himself when someone tells a Western American town, that, he is a colonel. Edward Horten, a new player to tlie screen, is Ruggles ,and the meek simplicity with which he endows the valet Ruggles, used to long service to an English lord, makes one of the best characters that have been drawn from the screen. Comedy, Scenic and News.
