Manager Glenn Harriman' has arranged to give to the people of New Richmond and vicinity at the Crystal Theatre on Saturday night, September 12, the photodrama, “The Last Days of Pompeii," dramatized from the famous novel by Lord Bulwer Lytton. This great picture is in six parts, was made at Pompeii, Italy, and comes to the Crystal Theatre at considerable advanced cost to the manager over and above, other special features that he has heretofore given. Manager Harriman has a signed contract with the George Kleine Attractions of Chicago for the use of tins great picture for September 12, that being their only open date, and Manager Harriman jumped at the opportunity to get it.  “The Last Days of Pompeii” has been shown in moving pictures to crowded houses everywhere, and its coming to New Richmond is an opportunity for our people to see something really worth while. With the new electric current the pictures are guaranteed to be clear and clean cut, with the added convenience of the little local show house being well lighted. The additional cost to get this great photo-drama, six reels, necessitates an additional charge. The admission will be 25 cents.
