THE KINO'S THEATRE.

Patrons of tlio King's Theatre will no doubt remember tho line picture entitled "Pride of' tho Circus" which was screened some little timo ago. "Tho Snako Dancer" is a continuation by the same company, un<j is acted by the same artists. It tells another story of the circus. The part depicting the free and easy gipsy-like life led by the travelling circus is very interesting. En route, tho circus is augmented by a bear tamer and his performing bear. Before long tho tamer falls in love with, and marries, the snake charmer. Their wedding is duly celebrated by their companions in Bohemian style. All goes well until tho ballet-master persuades the tamer to desert the circus for a moro profitable musichall engagement. The ballet-master also discovers that tlio wife has a natural talent for dancing, and in due. course makes a great "hit" in the "Snako Dance." This is magnificently depicted, Glowing with success, she becomes tho subject of the attentions of a wealthy gentleman in the audience, and goei to his house after her turn to supper. Her husband discovers this, and is mad with jealousy. Ho takes bis bear, and forcing his way into the house, causes a scene, and the gentleman is cowed. The tamer makes bis wife walk linnic-followed by the bear, and Iter humiliation becomes her punishment. In tho end her husband forgives liev, and they are once morn a happy couple. "The Outcast" is a graphic sketch' of the life of a lonely trapper, who finds that a beautiful Indian girl has fallen into one of his bear traps anil sprained her ankle, lie gives up his h«t that, she may spend the night in comfort, while he sleeps outside. Xext day ho takes Iter back to her tribe, tho Sioux.< Afterwards she is sold, Indian fashion, to be the wife of a Cheyenne chief. She lintM this man, and, in a fit of passion, kills him. Fearing the wrath of her father, she seeks refugo with tho trapper whom she still loves. Tlio Cheyenr.os, however, carry her off again, while tins trapper is ab=ent, niul proceed to administer their crude justice. The trapper warns her people, and a combat ensue* between tho Sioux and tho Cheycnnos, in which tho former are victorious, and the girl is saved to marry the trapper.
