TURUA PICTURES.
THE BLOOD SHIP. On Saturday next “Tne Bloqd Ship” will be screened at the Turua Hall. This is a picture that brings back in sc,ene;< of stirring intensity t’hei colourful days of a bygone era. Realistic reproductions of the old waterfront of San Francisco. The lodging house of the “Knitting Swede,” from which seaman were, shanghaied aboard outgoing hell-ships. A mutiny of bellious sailors on the ‘‘Golden Bough,” nick-named the “Blood Ship” because of the fiendish brutality of its captain and his mate. SADIE THOMPSON. “Sadie Thompson,” showing on Tuesday night, is a South Seia Island story by W. Somerset Maugham. “Sadie Thompson” is the narrative of ant intolerant individual’s insistent projection of his dominant personality into the pitifully weak and feminine existence of an outcast girl who is trying to “ live and let live.” Maugham’s classic is a drama of tolcrenicc, a throbbing story of human souls in conflict.
