ENTERTAINMENTS.

WORLD’S PICTURES. The followers of the popular serial drama, “Trey o’ Hearts,” again filled the World’s Picture theatre. Episode No. 12 advances the story in a most vivid manner, innumerable incidents of a tnrilling nature following in close succession and culminating in a tremendous explosion which blow away the whole side of a bill, palpably endangering several horsemen and a party in a motor car. A feature m this series is the beautiful trained horse used by Miss C-leo Madison in the character of Judith Trine. This animal does practically all but talk, and acts its part in a almost human manner. Miss Madison is tied to the horse and the animal unties her and then taking a water bottle proceeds to a pool and kneeling fills the bottle and returns to the giri. The whole of this instalment is of exceptional merit. The supporting films includes a first-class topical; comedy entitled “The Shirker’s Nightmare,” in which a “white feather” has a had dream, which causes him to enlist. The balance of the programme is well up to standard. PATHE PICTURES. Tho startling drama, “The Intriguers,” attracted another large audience to His Majesty’s _ Theatre last night. This is a scathing indictment of the looseness of society in America, where everyone who appears to he wealthy is received with open arms. This leaves the opportunity for wclldressedi parasites to prey upon all who may have a weak spot in their lives. Two such gentry come very near to wrecking the lives of the hero and heroine in tills gripping story, which contains many, powerful dramatic situations. It is splendidly filmed by the-Lubin Company- -, “CVmcy Island Nightmare” afforded the big audience a real good laugh. In this - the Vi tagraph; players describe how a romantic young lady after reading a “shilling shocker” days her fair head on the pillow. She has a dream in which the characters in tho absurd; story are ludicrously mixed up. The humor is simply irresistible. No less amusing was “Gussie, tho Golfer,” in which Syd. Chaplin kept the audience in a very merry mood. “The Red Signal” is a sensational romance, which shows how that heroine of the railroad stops an express train from bed no- hurled to destruction. It is a thrill from start to finish. A film winch was followed with rivetted attention was “Tho Wonders of Magnetism,” which, shows what a wonderful aid! to thiei mining industry is Edison’s magnet ore separator, which is-shown doing seemingly impossible tasks. Among the many stirring war pictures shown by the “Gaumont Graphic” were interesting views of tho German army and something of their field guns. This admirable series will he shown for tiro last time to-night.
