ENTERTAINMENTS.

MUNICIPAL PICTURES.

The programme lor to-morrow evening is of such an exceptionally interesting character that space will not permit us to describe it in full, so we must refer our readers to our advertising columns for particulars. The star drama “ The Lost Millionaire ” is a great and glorious film. A young millionaire, Robert Redwin, does not marry because he cannot find any girl who loves him for himself alone, and not for his millions. Redwin gets a tip that coal is to be found in a certain district in Tennessee, and sends Carter, his agent, to investigate and report. Carter finds valuable deposits at Hell's Gap, on land owned by a poor mountaineer and his granddaughter, Josephine Blake. He telegraphs Redwin advising the purchase of the land at a high figure. The cheque paying lor the land is never sent by Redwin, who meets with an accident just when he is about to sign it, causing him to lose his memory and forget his identify. He disappears, wanders about the country and leads the life ot a tramp. Chance leads him to Hell's Gap, where he meets Josephine and her grandfather, who be-friend him. Hearing from Josephine the story of how she almost became rich, his memory returns to him. Before this he has already won the love of Josephine. Ropert sends her the cheque at last, and when she joyfully tells him that she is rich, he bids her farewell, saying that he supposes that she will no longer want him now that she is rich. Josephine tells him that her love will ever remain the sams, and goes with him to New York to be married.
