AMUSEMENTS.

* HIS .MAJESTY’S PICITRES. A largo and enthusiastic audience greeted the change of pictures at Bernard’s last evening, when the programme submitted came up to more than expectation. “The Struggle of Hearts” is a hue Lubili production, the pathetic scenes being finely realistic. The story deals with a parson, his sweetheart, and an escaped convict, whom the parson assists and gives a chance to start life anew. Ihe

cream of thrilling episodes is to ho seen in the exciting photo drama, “Dr. Gar-EI-Hamor,” which is a sequel to “The Dead Man’s Child.” The Doctor, after jumping from an express train going at full speed, is discovered by some railway workmen and taken to a cottage near by, and they send for the local medicC Dr. Watson, who recognises Dr. Hamer a.s the much-wanted criminal, and sends for the police. In the meantime, Dr. Hamer overpowers the farmer, who is guarding him. and escapes on a railway jigger, bailing up the man in charge with a gun. A chase ensues, the Police commandeering a locomotive. The Doctor is secured, hut manages to elude the police while being conveyed in a motor car on his way to prison, and he hides in a sewer. Every move of the camera is hair-raising till the Doctor is finally brought to justice. The scenic por-

tion is out ou its own in scenes on the Adriatic Sea. The comic element is beyond doubt very good. The same hill will he shown to-night, and on Saturday.

DOMINION DAIRY SHOW AT HAW ERA.

There is invariably some delay in obtaining rebates from the .Railway Department after shows, owing, in most eases, to exhibitors neglecting to forward the necessary forms to the secretary. A brief description of the mode of procedure will therefore not he out of place, and anyone sending exhibits by rail, and desiring a rebate on freight, would do well to heed what follows. When forwarding exhibits, prepay railage, and at the same time obtain a certificate marked “A.” signed by the station-master dr the guard of the train if a flag station is used. Also procure from the proper officials a certificate marked “C,” which the exhibitor must sign and post to the show secretary. If these instructions are carried, out the exhibits will ho returned carriage free, and half the cost of carriage already paid will he returned. Should any portion of the exhibits he sold at the show, .the .remainder will ho returned carriage free, only provided a “B” is, furnished. Exhibits sliould he legibly addressed, “Secretary, Dominion. Dairy Show,” Hawera, together with the'sender’s name and railway station.
