HIS MAJESTY'S PICTURES

Crowds turned away last night from Bernard’s Pictures when the initial performance of the famous Victor Hugo masterpiece, “Les Miserahles,” was screened. The picture proved to he all that was stated of it. It is quite understandable that the cost was over £25,000 for the original production. The picture, which lasts over 2V hours, will he screened this evening for the last time. It is good advice to he early at the doors to-night. Many were disappointed last night.

| Monday’s new series will include the celebrated Gaumont drama, “The Bobbery at the Inn.” The story runs: — .Mrs Desmorel takes a sum of money with her from her home to a distant town in answer to a letter she presumes has been sent by her husband. The letter has been forged, and Mrs Desmorol is afterwards involved in a perplexing imbroglio of errors, which, incidentally, result in her arrest on circumstantial evidence for a crime at a wayside inn. How her release, and the tracing of the actual criminal are effected make up a story with many ingenious twists and turns, holding the interest engrossed right up to the sns|pended disclosure. The ‘supporting scenic, dramatic and comic gems are headed by the Keystone’s screamer, “Those Good Old Days.”
