ENTERTAINMENTS.

FULLER’S PICTURES

The programme hilled for tonight’s change at the Town Hall promises to be quite up to the usual high standard attained at the popular picture house. The star picture, "His Son’s Accuser,” is a powerful French play, bearing on the influence of heredity. Hubert St. Pol, a temperamental sergeant-major, is in love with Angelique Thiebant, but his creditors become so importunate that he goes to the front. A son is left behind, and he grows up to he the exact counterpart of his father. The son, like his father, has a passion for gambling, and becomes infatuated with an actress, who drives him to commit murder to obtain money for her extravagances. Hubert St. Pol has now left the Army, and ’• ’"’own as Vidocq ; he starts 0... . - .i.ick the miscreant, which be does relentlessly and discovers the murderer !o be bis own son. The complications in this great play are so cleverly arranged that, each one comes to a terrific: suprisc, and each one is breath-taking in its effect. The end ot the play is cleverly and artistically thought out. Supporting items arc "Helen Intervenes,” a Thanhouser Company’s charming child study ; "Australia’s Sous,” world’s events give this picture increased interest and importance ; “ Hogan’s Annual Spree,’’ Keystone comic. Don : t forget the Bth series of the grand serial. "The Adventures of Kathlyn,” to-morrow and .Saturday.
