HIS MAJliSl'i'S PICTURES
To-night will be the last of a most brilliant set of pictures at His Majesty's. The sta-r-fiinij "Tigris" stands alone for sensational incidents and clever acting. Monday's change includes dramas from the pathetic to the gay. "By Unseen Hands" is a film which is close upon 3000 feet in length, and the scenario cramed with excitement, dealing with a band of female thieves and their cunning police graft. The film is by the Cines Co., therefore, something unusual in acting and staging may be expected. "The Death of Lucrece," a Kinemacolor drama adapted from William Shakespeare's famous poem, vvifflPp© faithfully portrayed. "Friends of the Birds" is yet another beautifully colored film. A little of what is being dono for the preservation of boauti-' fill and harmless wild birds is pictorially narrated by this film. The pictures are informative, but at the same time many of them are a delight to the eye, giving a glorious vision of woods, and orchards, in the springtime. The comics are right up to standard in "Tweedledumis Ma. In Law." The great Panama Canal picture will be screened next Friday and Saturday, and Saturday at the matinee at 2.30.
