ENTERTAINMENTS.

FULLERS' PICTURES. Tho Puller Proprietary is producing a splendid series of films now at the Skating Rinlc. A favourite picture, with Wild West coburing, was "The Outlaw Deputy." Another tells by the biograph tho Btory of a trip through Morocco, and still another describes the clever work of a troupe of champion swimmers. The sarno films will bo shown this afternoon and evening. THEATRE ROYAL.

To-night will bo the last opportunity that patrons of the Theatre ltoyal will have of seeing tho week's excellent pro- , gramme of moving pictures. The kinomacolor items this week are an cspeci- [ ally good lot, while the other subjects inr elude the great detective story "Zigomar" j and "The Girl in the Motor Boat." Tho [ kinemacolor season is now drawing to a close, and special prices are announced for the remaining performances. On Monday nest there will be the usual ( change of programme. 1 KING'S THEATRE. i The luro of tho moving picture is not i losing its I'fi'ect, if the attendances at the • King's Theatre may be taken as an index. ; Last night the second shoeing of the ; new programme was witnessed by a large number of people. It is an excellent, well-balanced programme, and it should again meet with liberal patronage to-night, and also at the matinee. The management of West's and th« Royal Pictures will on Monday night present the marvellous Vitagraph sensation, "An Aeroplane Elopement.' NEW THEATRE. Yesterday's and last night's programme at the New Theatre contained some items that cannot, fail to pleaso the majority of people. "Cupid on tho Watch" is a* delightful and linoly-tinfod film. The setting of tho scenes in tho time of the earlier Georges or thereabouts is particularly appropriate, as Cupid would look much less romantic stalking after man or maid in the twentieth ecntury evening dress. As it is, tho pictures owes most of its attraction to the old dresses and quaint-ly-constnfcfcd houses. "The Confessional" is a story touching on religion about a young curato of tho High Chifreh, who is accused of a murder, and with tho seal of the confessional on his lips has la suffer in silence. The girl he is in love with, sister to tho man he was saving, believes in his guilt, so he goes to a western mission, and eventually enters tho Church of Borne. In the end he meets his former love, whom he forgives freely, but, being a priest, cannot again be her lover. A Bison film tells a well-acted Western drama entitled "The New Cowboy," who, after a series of life-and-dcath ad ventures, marries the .ranch-own-er's danghter. Another comedy, tho misadventures of a German band, was well received. This programme will be repeated to-night. ORGAN RECITAL. Itiaa Doris Dall has been engaged to sing at to-nighfs organ recital at tho Town Hall. Her selections nre "Still wie die Nacht" (Bohm) and "Mother o' Mine" (Frank Tonrs), and, judging from the rcoeption she received at last Saturday's recital, her singing to-night should be enjoyed. Mr. Maughan Barnett has chosen a first-class programme, including "Andante" from "The Rustic Symphony" (Goldmark), "Sonata in G Minor," "Capocci," and "Stoi'm Fantaisie" (Wely).
