ENTERTAINMENTS.

FULLER’S PICTURES,

The nth episode of the “Million Dollar Mystery” is the principle feature of the current programme at Fuller’s in “The Elusive Treasure Box,” Again the box is shown, but mysterious hands appear and the treasure chest sinks from view. The Keystone Co. present a splendid comedy entitled, “A Rascal’s Wolfish Way,” with the usual complement of scenics, dramas and topical pictures. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. An outstanding feature of Friday’s change of programme is an exciting two reel Kalem drama, “When Thieves Fall Out.” Here is a powerful story vivid in execution, filled with dramatic surprises. A wonderful woman criminal conceives an idea whereby a valuable exhibit to be used at the jewellers’ convention can be stolen. The convention is to be held at a magnificent hotel. The thieves by a well laid plan manage to have a large trunk placed in the strong room with the jewellery. A detective who is on watch discovers that everything is not as It should be. This is followed by some desperate schemes and a pursuit of the criminals that is most exciting. It is not known whether the criminals escaped with their booty or not until the final picture. Other pictures of interest are : “(Presentation of Distinguished Conduct Medals at Harefield,” a timely and interesting film of the moment ; “Her Easter Hat,” an appealing drama in two parts ; “Billie’s Goat,” a screaming comedy of lodge initiations ; and “Topical Budget.”
