THE MOVING MAGNISCOPE VIEW
The Baptist brethren and many more not of the faith packed that church to the doors last evening to enjoy the Amet Magniscope, which was previously promised to be new, novel and interesting. It was all that was anticipated, the magniscope proving to be in reality a simplified veriscope, or producer of moving pictures, life size, thrown on a large canvas at the front of the edifice. Numerous scenes were shown with startling realisticity, each winning the unbounded applause of the audience, and it isn't to be doubted that everyone present got a "heaped-up" measure of money's worth in their enjoyment of the entire entertainment.
