At the Victoria
"In Tune," a strong photo-drama in
two reels, heads to-dfty's bill at the
Victoria Theatre, 223 Market street. It
is an exceptional play and interest is
intense throughout the whole produc
tion. Another special feature will be
"The- Red Scar of Courage" and "A
Storm of the Welsh Coast," in two
reels. The former is un extraordinary
story of great interest while the lat
ter is a wonderful scenic film. "The
Pathe Daily News," showing latest
news and war pictures, and "The Nat
ural Girl," conclude to-day's Victoria
program.
On account of a fire in a New York
theatre where it was being shown,
"The War of the World," the big fea
ture in multiple parts, scheduled for
the Victoria to-day, will not be shown
until Saturday. The film, according
to advices received here last night,
iyas damaged badly, but another will
be secured of the same material which
will be shown at the Victoria Satur
