AMUSEMENTS.

MARTON CINEMA, TO-NIGHT. There was a good house at the Town Hail last evening wnen 1 ‘The Little Dutch Girl” was screened. The same programme will also be screened this evening. Next Monday and Tuesday the Metro star “The Vampire” will be shown, and the management are making arrangements to secure the film “The Stolen. Voice,” featuring Robert Warwick, for Friday and Saturday. This picture is unique in that it shows the screening of another picture—a film within a film. Patrons will do well to reserve seats for this picture. The city papers report crowded houses in both Wellington and Auckland during the performance.

DOROTHEA SPINNEY. On Thursday evening Miss Dorothea Spinney brought her season in Marton to a close with the Greek play of Iphigeuia in Taurus. Probably those who heard her on Tuesday last in the little mystic plays she treated her audience to will be divided in their opinions as to which of tbe performances might be considered the better. It is probably a matter of temperament, hut there can be no douDt that she is splendid in tragedy. There was a large audience present, and the breathless attention with which she was listened to, and the hearty applause at the intervals where expressions of pleasure Were suitable; testified to the satisfaction of the audience.
