AMUSEMENTS.
— HAYWARD'S PICTURES. The greatest picture of the year will be screened at the Town Ball tonight. Many of our readers will remember with pleasure the startling and realistic picture shown some weeks ago, entitled "The Prido of the Circus." The same company have surpassed their previous efforts in the picture shown this evening, entitled "The Snake Dancer." A delightful love story is interwoven throughout the piece, and a fitting climax is the marvellous and weird snake dance performed by Madame Lili Beck. A specially selected series of films will be screened in support of the star film. CURLES' PICTURES. For next Wednesday evening's programme, the great star drama by the Nordisk firm, "Great Circus Catastrophe," has been secured. It is 3000 ft in length and abounds in thrilling scenes.

The hotel catcnes fire, unable to escape they make their way to the top of the building and take to the telephone wires, and the girl falls. At the performance horse and rider are high up in the dome, a platform of death, tbo horse completely out of control, and then —■. It is a wonderful picture. Another fine drama, "Broncho Bills Gratitude," will be screened The scenics and comedies are a good lot, and the Gaumont Graphic will keep you up in the doings of the outside world.
