ENTERTAINMENTS.

BUCK JONES IN A GREAT PICTURE. Buck Jones as an Arizona buekaroo, and Frank Butler as his English friend, fighting a scheming lawyer and his hired thugs, in a fashionable hotel dining-room and leaving! the place a wreck, is one of the opening scenes which gives “The Fighting Buekaroo,” screening at the Town Hall to-night, a racing start that holds interest to the finish. The whole film is full of exciting scenes and thrilling stunts, performed in Buck/ Jones’s best style. The big feature is supported by a programme full of variety, which includes a comedy “Too Many Relations.” Also “Sweden To-day” and Fox News. Prices as usual. On Monday “Welcome Stranger” heads the list. A big comedy success with Dore Davidson in the role of Izzy Solomon. Other films are Stan Laurel comedy “Near Dublin” and the latest Palhe Gazette.

ROYAL PICTURES. In “Daring Days,” her latest production, to be screened at the Royal Theatre to-night, Josiq Sedgwick gives new proof of her right to be called the screw's greatest equestrienne. In this new Western picture Miss Sedgwick does some wonderful riding, especially when she pursues and stops the runaway stage coach horses. A fine comedy entitled “Painless Pain” will also be

screened. On Monday night “.Joanna” will be presented. What would you do with a million dollars? That is the question Joanna will solve for you on Monday night. This fascinating question forms the central motif of “Joanna,” a new Edwin CarevveFirst National picture, featuring Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mulhall. Joanna, a poor dress model, is the recipient of the million. How she gets rid of it is the story of the picture.
