Big Show at Colonial
Headed by the biggest musical com
edy act that ever played the theatre,
a new bill of vaudevilie opened at the
; Colonial this afternoon for the re- j
mainder of the week. "The Bachelor;
'Dinner."' the headliner, is a gigantiei
piece of stageware, surpassing all pre
vious acts offered at the Colonial. There
are fifteen people carried by the act,
including a bevy of maidens who make
up a very charming chorus. They have I
lavish costumes and have been drilled
in the pretty dances and steps that go!
with the big musical comedy show. On '
the same bill are Rozella and Rozella.

AT THE REGENT
I Henry W. Savage's tremendously
successful mystery farce, "The Mii
tlion," with Edward Abates, is to-day's ;
attraction at the Regent theatre in "ad
dition to the regular program of first j
1 run films. The elaborate picture was |
shown last night and was witnessed by
big audiences.
So quick is the action of the farce
that its adaption to the screen was in-
! evitable; indeed the is a motion
I picture itself. Edward Abeles is ver
satile and at all times entertaining.
| Though he is called upon to portray six
! distinct characters, he changes his per
} soaality with each costume and the ef
j feet is surprisingly entertaining. ''The
j Million " is a safe and sure cure for
melancholia and it is absolutely fatal
to one's dignity. The motion picture
has been cleverly constructed and the
settings, of which there are many, are
uniformly good. For to-morrow Man
ager Magaro has booked the film pro
duction of Bret Harte's book.

"The Ordeal" at the Victoria, To-day
One of the greatest features it has
ever been our pleasure to present will |
| be offered to-day, entitled "The Or-1
( deal." It is a wonderful production
j which every person ought to see. That
the Victoria's new $25,000 pipe organ !
jis truly "the talk of the town" is
| proven by the fact that every day we j
: hear people saying that they "doubt
I its cost'' or that it is not played by !
a musician but is an automatically ar- I
, ranged instrument. Otffers say that it j
is the greatest musical instrument that J
they have ever heard and we feel {er- i
tain that only those who have not ,
heard this marvel of musical genius '
and mechanical ekiU could criticise i
adversely. This great *25,000 pipe or
jian is one of very few in the country ■
j and are mostly in*the most pretentious i
I motion pictures of the larger cities. I
i To-morrow we present "The G>eat !
. Diamond Robbery," featuring an. all
I star cast including Miss Gail Kane, !
Wallace Eddinger and Charles J. Boss, j
This six part production has been
taken from that great melodrama of
the same name. "Three Weeks," will j
