THE PICTURE WORLD.

THE PEOPLE’S. “NEW YORK LUCK”—WILLIAM RUSSELL. * To-day’s new bill presents a fine com-edy-adventure-drama entitled “New York Luck.” It is a most absorbing tale of a day-dreamer who went to the big city. One of the best of William Russell production is “New York Luck.” An amusing theme has been used as the basic idea of the picture, and while the most interesting part of it is contained in an imaginary continuation of the real story by the. hero in a letter written home during his New York sojourn, the production as a whole has quite a strong appeal in a comedy way. The bill, which screens for one night only owing to altered transport arrangements, includes Gazette and a fine comedy, “A Pool of Peaches.” On Monday evening “Woman and Wife,” starring Alice Brady, will bo presented. EVERYBODY'S. ALICE BRADY IN “WOMAN AND WIFE.” The introduction of Jane Eyre, best beloved of all fiction heroines, to the screen in the Select photo-drama, “Woman and Wife,” starring Alice Brady, is a notable event which has been awaited with the keenest interest. This masterpiece by Charlotte Bronte has made J ane Eyre a household word, and sharing in her popularity is the unfortunte Rochester, whom she loved so devotedly. “Woman and Wife” screens finally at Everybody’s to-night. COMING MONDAY. On Monday and Tuesday Louise Glaum will star in a seven-reel superfeature “Sahara.”
