AMUSEMENTS.
GRAND THEATRE. “THE FIRST LAW” TO-NIGHT. The star attraction at the Grand last night introduced a well-known novel by Gilson Willets; which furnishes the story of “The First Law,” the Pathe feature in which the famous dancer, Irene Castle, is starred with Antonio Moreno. The story is dramatic to a degree and intensely mysterious, the tangle being unwoven at tire last moment, after Mrs Castle has passed through many vicissitudes at the hands of an unscrupulous. gang of blackmailers in whose toils 'she had' become enmeshed. The picture furnishes the star with many valuable opportunities to show her worth in a highly emotional role. A good old-fashioned country store forms the sotting for Larry Semn’s uproarious comedy, “The Grocery Clerk,” one of the best and funniest of comedies. This comedian is recogas the only man likely tg replace Charlie Chaplin for popularity. He has a style of his own, and is original in everything he attempts. The box plan for reserves is open at Collier’s. There will be matinees at 1 p.m, and 3 p.m. to-morrow afternoon.
