AMUSEMENTS.

“THE FAMILY HOXOI.'R TO-XJOHT. Here is n picturfi tor ttio home nwl family. It has a groat thought, n.iul shows that in the midst of vice and evil, one right-thinking person can sway a multitude. “The Family Honour” while being a picture of every day life, peopled with real flesh and blood characters, who are nothing if not eminently human, turns the looking glass on. those of us who are weaker—not had at heart, hut loti through recklessness and moral slide into evil ways, with a disastrous end in sight, unless something occurs to put the brakes on. Thcae is drama as well, and near tragedy with scenes ot mental conflict .hut it is all relieved by the wonderful beauty of the settings, a. love and influence of a young sister whose .load of trouble iu her waster brother, and responsibility of bringing up their brother after the wastrel has gambled away their small fortune, is all more than a. human being could hear. The acting of Florence \ idor and little Ecu Alexander stands out as a cameo amid perfect setting, and the (ha factor role of the young waster w nindo as vivid and unlikeahle at possible, King \ idor’s master hand is evident throughout. The supporting subjects in to-night’s display are a (inumont Craphic, a beautiful Scenic, and a comedy. On .Monday next at the Frinecss Theatre, a big James Olliver Curwond story will he presented entitled “Kazan.”
