ENTERTAINMENTS.

TOM MIX IN “NORTH OE THE YUKOX.” Town Hall patrons will welcome ■ be appearance at the Town Hall on Saturday next of the favourite Tom Mix in his first special feature entitled “North of the Yukon.” In each picture of this star he has a new and dangerous stunt. Tn “North of tin- Yukon" this custom is magnified tenfold. In the development of the very unusual story, Mix is whirled through endless harrowing dangers. He dives off an old-fashioned paddle wheel river steamboat. Again his heroic fight with a pack of hungermaddened wolves, with no other protection than his stout arms, provides a thrill as new and refreshing as ihat gained by the terrific plunge in a frail hark canoe down a roaring cataract. In addition to the leading picture, a Sunshine comedy “The Book Agent” and the latest World's News will he screened. The whole entertainment on Saturday night reaches a very high standard. On Monday a story of the North West adapted from the David Belaseo stage success, “Tiger Rose,” will he presented. ROYAL PICTURES. As Baker’s ancestors were among the first colonists of New Zealand, ii is fitting that he plays his part in a drama of civilisation’s conquest over savagery. Phil Goldstone’s production “The Empire Builders” tells a thrilling, dramatic and humorous story of West. Africa today. Baker (Snowy) always one of the screen's most gallant heroes, rides two splendid horses in his inimiiable style, performs some marvellous stunts, and ends by winning a tight with a heavier opponent so decisively that jou know he could have whipped him without any scenario! The picture will please pa Irons at the Royal Theatre tomorrow night. Come and see Snowy Baker and his famous horse, Boomerang hurdle more obstacles in less time than you ever saw before. As an extra. “Steel Trail” will be shown. Patrons note: “Steel Trail” will he shown, for one night only. SOUTH PACIFIC COMEDY CO.
