ENTERTAINMENTS
“THE CISCO KID”, MAJESTIC TONIGHT O'. Henry’s chivalrous bandit, loving all women and trusting none, gay caballero of tbe border who defied the law for the fun of it—and a hard-boiled cavalryman who thought himself irresistible to women, yet whose chief ambition was to capture his elusive enemy —these are the roles played respectively by Warner Baxter and Edmund Lowe in “The Cisco Kid,” colourful Fox drama, finishing to-night at the Majestic Theatre.

Others in the impressive supporting cast are C. Aubrey Smith, Raymond llalton, David Landau, Ruth Selwyn, Maude Eburnc, Little Billy, Kiiinn Williams, Clark Marshall, Ray Milland and Lillian Elliott.
