CURLE'S PICTURES

A splendid programme of films is to be presented at the Skating Rink tonight, by the above company. "Sports" will welcome the appearance of the picture depicting this year's great race,"The Royal Ascot." The dramas are the productions of the best manufacturers, and are full of Bensational and pathetic situations. The comedies and comics are of the usual order —the best. The Gazette will be found to contain something of interest to everyone. The complete programme is a real feast for picturelovers and should be the means of drawing a large house. HAYWARD'S PICTURES.
