AMUSEMENTS.

HIS MAJESTY’S THEATRE. A splendid collection of films that educate is to be screened at His Majesty’s theatre to-night. “Herring Fishing on the Dogger Bank,” “Views of Palestine,” “Paris from an aeroplane,” “Harpooning Whales in the Antarctic Seas,” being the principal pictures. The dramas are excellent. “The Ranchman’s Trust” is a stirring Essanay drama of the far West, thrilling and unusual. Additional interest should bo attached ta “Master and Pupil” a drama in which Mr Harry Furniss, of illustrating fame, is one of the actors. A comedy worthy of the name is introduced in “Spoony Sam.” Spoony Sam and Sis Perkins think they are in love with each other. Old man Perkins does not like Sam awfully well, and ho tries to hook Sis on to Oy Hawkins. Sam gets desperate, buys the ring and makes arrangements to settle the matter. At the impromptu wedding, at the last moment, Sam gets cold feet and ducks, carrying the ring away. Cy, i® there good and ready, all parties agree that a ceremony must bo performed. They chase Sam, take the ring away from him, hold his head in a bucket of water while Sis gets her name changed to Mrs Hawkins—Poor Sam.
