DUKE HOTEL BURNS
At Dallas Texas, during acar
nival, a magnificient picture
of the fire at its height
i> caught by the weeklycamera
and can de seen at the Grand
tonight . It is an actual ex
citing run that the department
makes and not expressly for
the “movies. “Undine” is a
masterpiece of great scenic
and histrionic beauty. It is
the tale of a water sprite who
receives permission from Nep
tune to live on earth and the
story of her adventures while
in the land of mortals. The
excellence of the acting in this
two reel feature is so above
criticism that one is given the
impression of viewing as it
were the actual facts instead
of an old myth modernly devl
oped. The bill of this show is
so good that no one can really
afford to miss it. This is the
house of entertainment so
Watch the Grand.- adv
