PAN-AMERICAN ELECTRIC CARNIVAL.
The Pan-American Electric Carnival delighted a full house at Victoria hall last night, and the consensus of opinion is that the show is away ahead of anything seen here. The moving pictures were brighter steadier than any yet seen here, and the subjects were all new, and covered a very wide range.
The entertainment commenced with some beautiful scenes of the Pan American Exposition, and the finale of the well known drama Quo Vadis. The story of Little Red Riding Hood was told in a charming manner, which delighted both old and young. There were a large number of comic scenes, which occasionally threw the audience into convulsions of laughter.
Then came the subject of engrossing interest to everyone, the Coronation of King Edward VII, in Westminster Abbey. This was a magnificent spectacle for the human eye to feast upon for one was practically transferred to London, to see the ceremony as it actually took place. Following this came the grand procession of state through London, showing the King and Queen in the magnificent state coach, being drawn by the eight cream colored horses.
Mr. J. Woodall Oliver delighted the audience with his beautiful illustrated songs, and is without doubt the best we have ever had the pleasure of hearing.
To night the company will give their final performance with change of programme, except the Coronation pictures and Mont. Pelee disaster and should have a big house.- Truro Daily News, Sept. 13, 1902.
