AMUSEMENTS.

HIS MAJESTY’S THEATRE. “A Sister’s Ordeal” is the star film at His Majesty’s to-night, when the new programme will bo screened for the first time. The drama is intensely interesting, being as it is, a graphic representation of western life. “The Two Gun Sermon” is a cowboy film. When Ralph Foster went to the camp of Silver Bell to organise a congregation he had a hard job. On arrival he was received with jeers and laughter, but he was not easy /to lick. One of his first big jobs was to pull Ed. Bowman out of a saloon and carry him to his family who needed the money he was spending for booze. This got him in trouble, the landlord thought that Foster was injuring his business and promptly threw him and his belongings out of the hotel. Then Foster built a bungalow, held meetings at his home and told the people he had com© to stay. Again Mrs Bowman implored Foster to get her husband away from the saloon. This ended in a rough and tumble fight, hut Foster not dnly made good with his fists but secured two guns and marched the tough ones to his meeting house, and gave them a sermon that they did not soon forget. The Silver Bell bar-room was closed and Foster won the daughter of ‘Silver Dick’ I ’, the landlord. “The Palace of Mystery,” and “Broncho Billy for Sheriff” are other good films in a programme that should make a big appeal to local j°trons of His Majesty’s.
