AMUSEMENTS.

HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE. "From the Bottom of the Sea" is the star programme at His Majesty's Theatre to-night, and this stirring j drama should meet with a big recep- < tion. The sinking of a United States j submarine is the feature of this film, j and a stirring plot is woven around i this disaster of the sea. The comedy, ■ "Buttons," is built on rather broad lines, but without being the least bit vulgar or suggestive. We are presented with a ludicrous series of incidents, resulting from a youthful effervescence of humour on the part of a couple of "buttons." Among the fresh arrivals at a swell hotel are a newly married couple of the spoony sort, a maiden lady of uncertain age and a gentleman whose main article of diet is whisky. The coysome thing of some fifty summers is not overlavish with her small change and "Buttons" owes her one. The little wretch -starts out on his evil path by substituting her bedroom number for that of the gent who looketh on the wine when it is red, yellow, or white or any other colour. Then "Buttons No. 2" arrives upon the scene and suggests that the room number of the victims of Hymen shall be included in the general jumble. Then they He low and wait for the fun. And it comes off quite all right. Excellent scenics, good dramas, and laughable comics complete this fine programme.
