AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODYS’ PiCTURES “It AGING LUCK ” —TO-NIGHT. To-night at the Princess Theatre Monty Banks will appear in a dazzling flash of comedy lightning, entitled •’ Bating Luck.” What is luck? For many moons, or at least further hack than Hie oldest inhabitant can remember luck is considered that “something” that is cither good or had that happens to the average person in the every-dav existence. There are many who contend that there isn’t any such animals as “ luck.” They claim that accidents are a matter of misfortune. If the unexpected happens which brings joy, sunshine and happiness, they simply assert that it was in Ihe course of events and bound to happen, and that's all there is to it. In “ Racing Luck,” .Monty Banks has what he claims is good luck.” Time and again he flirts with death, is so near it that one can hear a golden harp playing, yet lie comes out of his narrow escapes with flying colours. Sec “ Macing Luck " and see if you think it’s good hick or bad luck that strikes Monty Banks. “ Macing Luck” is a speed demon. Tts story calls for lightning fast thrills and they come fast and heavy, holding one spellbound until the finish. Tlic race in which Monty Banks surprises Ihe racing world when lie drives a high-powered racing ear through a thousand deaths is the piece de resistance of “ Macing Luck.” This speed display is alone sufficient to give an audience great satisfaction. Yet the other sections of the story aro speeded along in a merry, comic way, creating laughter and building iro an exciting love story all the way. Monty Banks keeps the speed pounding at high pitch. i A topical and comedy will also be shown.
