      „Chaplin Carmen at the Lyrics

      J. W. Cornelius, manager of the two Lyric theaters,

the West End, at Delmar and Euclid, and the house

at Sixth and Pine, obtained first–run privileges of Chaplin´s

Carmen, and ran two engagements of the film at both

theaters, raising the price of admission at the down–town theater

from ten to fifteen cents, and crowding the house at all

performances. The first engagement ended April 9 and the second

on April, 16. The West End Lyric is a first-run Paramount

theater with ten and twenty-cent admission, and the downtown

runs a feature and shorts subjects, with daily change,

at ten cents a seat.“
