GBAND OPERA HOUSE. To-night will see the last performance of tho "Fortuno Hunter," a comedy and presentation of high merit. Friday and Saturday, tho last two nights of tho present ecoson, will bo dovoted to tho rovivnl o? that masterpieco of merriment "Aro Ton a. Mason?" so 6uecessfully produced during tho previous soason of this remarkably clever and Trell-balnnced company. Those ■vdio enjoy a hearty laur" nf two and a half hours' duration should not miss seeing "Are Tou a Mason?" HIS MAJESTY'S THEATEE. Half of the programme at Hie Majesty's Theatro this week is taken up by Bert Lα Blanc's Musical Travesty_ Stars, a company which has appeared in Wellington previously, and is always awarded a welcome. Their production this week is entitled "Tho Gay Mr 3. Colvn," and is a highly amusing farce in which the talent for comody possessed "by the three principals, Bert Lα Blnnc, Jako Hack, and Maudo Miles, is' allowed full scope. In tho other half of tho programme are the following' euterttrfninf nrtists: Tho Alleys, jGwennio Hasto, and TValter Emerson, tfr. Emerson's comedy work Is particularly good. THE KING'S. Louise , Glaum, tho official "vampire lady?' of the Triangle Company, has a characteristic rolo in "Draw Egan," the picture in which Wiu. S. Hart has the rolo of a marshal, who, though a notorious road agent in diflkuiso, is eiven the tnek of straightening up a lawless, town. How he sucooeds and wine n pardon and romance makes a splendid virile story. "Tho Surf Girl" is a laughable comedy. EVEBTBODIfS. The bewitching Billio Buifcn continues to attract larger crowds to Everybody's Theatro than can be comfortably accommodated, and "Peggy" must wr in point of attendance be. reckoned as the Triangle's greatest picture yet ehoirn here. Thomas Inco has succeeded in (jivinft to the picture that srtlendid finish, that characteriaea all 'his best dramas, and tho photography matches in excellence Hiss Burko's acting. Wm. Deamond and Clinrks Bay, well-krown screen favourites here, support Miss Burke. THE EMPRESS. Henry Muruer'6 famous story. _of Preucli'life, "La Boheme," with. Alice Brndy and Paul Cappelani as stars, makes as fine a motion picture as it has done in opera and a drama. In the tragic role of "Mimi" Miss Brady is charming and egective. Puccini e beautiful music, ns rendered on the organ, adds appreciably to tho- enjoyment of the picture. The supports mcVuo>a topical subject and the popular ArbucHe of Keystone fame suimlies muoli laughter in a "Barnyard Flirtation.
