AMUSEMENTS.
HIS MAJESTY’S THEATRE. There was a very fair attendance at Bernard’s Pictures last night, when .the: current pictures were screened for the second time. Some wonderful exlubitions of horsemanship will , be shown on Thursday evening, in a film depicting the manoeuvres of “German Army Equestrians.” From the point of view of daring and achievement the feats of the German Cavalry emulated the deeds of even the much-vaunted cowboys of the “Wild West.” As usual, the dramatic side of the change of programme will be well catered for. “Won by Waiting” is a Lubin drama, well acted, and unfolding a clever story. A rich guardian leaves a fortune to a young couple on 'condition that they marry each other. Neither relishes the alternative of being cut off with a shilling, so they become man and wife. They lead a cat-and-dog ex istence until by some strange act of Providence they suddenly discovered that they really love each other. Another picture with a very similar Betting is “A Western Legacy.” In this case the two beneficiaries, who had determined that rather than marry each other they would forego their prospec tive fortune, fell in love at first sight without knowing each other’s identity. A hidden treasure is always wrapped up in a halo of romance, and this proves to be the case with “Lieutenant Rose and the Hidden Treasure.” It is brimful of adventure and excitement, and quite takes the audience by storm. “The Nurse” is a sweetly pathetic Edison drama, with a very original plot, while in different vein comes “Scones on the Upper Thames,” showing all the beautiful and historic spots on England’s grand old waterway. Further diversity is lent to the programme by a natural history subject, “Our Pet Dogs.” '
Everything augurs well for the production of “Our Regiment.” Everybody seems to bo catching the enthusiasm of the promoters. All preparations are well in advance, and only the finishing touches are now required. Apart from the players, the full Stratford Brass Band will bo required for a certain incident in the play. The services of the Stratford Orchestra are also required for another incident in the production, apart from their usual orchestral work. Eiglxt volunteers have keen enrolled to handle tho_ scenery, which, by the same token, will be the first appearance of the now scenery jus; completed by Mr. Will Diamond. A special scenery and lighting rehearsal will be held during the next few days. We are getting quite curious to see the results of these elaborate preparations on the 30th and 31st of this month, but bide a wee.
