“THE ELEVENTH HOUR.” Running the gamut of melodramatic thrills, “The Eleventh Hour,” adapted by William Fox from Lincoln J. Carter’s stage success, will be the feature attraction at the above pictures next Saturday night. This exciting production si irs G rles Jones and Shirley Mason. In the supporting cast are June Elvidgtand Allan Hale.

From every standpoint the screen version surpasses the legitimate presentation. The limitless expanse of development possessed by the screen gave Lincoln J. Carter ie>v inspiration for more startling thrill-stunts. One of the most strik ng ami breath-abating stunts aff, cicJ in this production, is the shooting of Charles Jones and Shirley Mason through tlie torpedo tubes of a submerged submarine. Equally amazing is Jones’ battle with lions. There is much excitement provided by the daring of Miss Mason. She hangs over a huge vat of liquid iron to escape the unwelcome attentions of the Prince. Her dive into ihe ocean Irom a high precipice is another hair-raiser. COMING APRIL Bth. “Loving Lies,” adapted from Peter B. Kyne’s story, “The Harbour Bar,” a mighty drama of the sea. COMING APRIL nth. In “Mile-A-Minute Romeo,” the Tom Mix production lately completed by William Fox and due for Easter Saturday night, will be seen one of the most extraordinary triangles of the screen. A western drama by Max Brand, whose name itself is an assurance for the unusual and enlertaining, tlie production offers-fhrqe ir-a-X-' •i n -g-<!'iaracter's in love with tlie same girl. Their individual schemes to win her form a most intricate web, particularly those of the two characters first introduced. One of them more wily than the other, but as happens in most cases, net so much favoured by the lady in question, sets his rivals to fighting together. Ultimately, the hero arrives on the scene and soon dissipates tlie amorous ambitions of both. And tlie excellent Northland Orchestra will provide the music.
