A stirring war play, one whose ac tion centers on the front lines in France, will be shown at the Grand theatre tomorrow. It is a William Fox play called "A Daughter of France," and in it the beautiful Miss Virginia Pearson is starred. It is a typical "love in the trenches" play but has in it a twist that is sur prising. In fact it is one of those dramas that keep you on edge con tinually because you cannot foresee the ending, and while you hope it 'ill turn out according to your sym pathy for heroic France you are never sure but what the villains may con quer. The picture also presents an idea of hat happened when tae Germans overran France, regarding neither tfomen nor churches. Miss Pearson eives a snlendid por trayal of the anguish that overcomes a true-hearted French girl of noble Diood when the enemy occupy her town and her chateau. Here is ro mance and adventure aplenty. "RASPUTIN, THE BLACK MONK."
