BERNARD’S PICTURES
“The Devil, the Servant, and the Man,” a strong allegorical drama founded upon “The Devil,” and “The Servant in the House,” is one of the f hig pictures to be screened at His Majesty’s Theatre on Monday evening. The Man neglects his home and, wife and attends a matinee of “The Devil,” in company with two other men, and two chorus girls. His wife remonstrates with him that night for leaving her alone, hut he pays little heed to her warning note, which reads, “If you persist in drinking and going out at night, do not blame your wife if she does likewise.” It is late when he returns home, and 1 is soon in dreamland, where the Devil appears and tells him that his wife is playing false with him. . . The De-j vi 1 places a revolver into the Man’s hand and in his rage the Man kills the woman he called wife. He then rushes home. Believing himself now awake, but remembering his dream, he hastens to his wife’s room, only to find it empty. He remembers her note, and, hik'd with remorse, is about to place the revolver at his own temple. “On the Moonlight Trail” is one of the month’s most powerful Western dramas, vigorous and replete with stirring situations. The quick wit of a little child saves a fortune in currency, and traps two cowardly ruffians who menace her father’s life. Another tale of the West, “Friends” will also be included in Monday’s change.
