AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODYS PICTUREB. “INTO THE NET.” TO-NIGHT. Perhaps no picture ever produced can boast so many beautiful girls as the new picture “Into the Net,” featuring Edna Murphy and Jack Mulliall, and showing to-night at the Princess Theatre. A rich and luxurious background was required for “Into the Net,” and producer Malcolm Strauss spared no expense to give this great photoplay the high-class mounting its story demanded. No picture has ever had such genuine thrills; such authentic action; such real tensity I Under supervision of the police, and with their co-operation, rea.l raids were staged. Every branch of the New "York police department is seen in operation. The depnrtment'of criminal identification is shown measuring, “mugging” and finger-printing criminals; an underground telegraph system, with no exposed wires that can Iks cut by the crooks, carries messages from headquarters to precinct stations and then to street signal boxes; the riot squad uses tear gas and machine guns; police dogs, waggons, police boats that patrol the harbour to the three-mile limit—all are seen in. vivid, thrilling notion in “Tnto the Net.” A Topical and Comedy will also be shown.
