AMUSEMENTS.

BERNARD'S PICTURES.

The Cine art has attained such a high position in the world that the leading dramatic actors find it a hard road to try and compete with the present day movies. Therefore, they have thrown in their lot to act before the camera. Last night's star, "A Prisoner in the Harem," produced under the personal supervision of D. J. Froilman, New York's great theatrical manager is a feature picture that grips from start' to finish. The Vitagraph Co. is well represented in the dramagraph, "Two Aristocratic Penitents." The supporting films include the Gaumont Graphic, and are all good. On Monday the famous Irish patriot drama, entitled "The Informer," will be screened. The story runs as follows :—Barney O'Shea is late asking his sweetheart, Nora, to go to the Shindy,and meanwhile she has consented to go with Michael, his rival. Barney plays ghost, frightening Michael away, and himself takes Nora to the Merrymaking. Michael never forgives him. He. sees how to get even with Batney a* little later, when he informs the British against him as the leader of the Irish patriots of Kiloomon, and the British soldiers burn Barney's cottage in a vain effort to discover the ringleader. The colonel sends word to Barney that if he'will give himself, up, his mother's life shall be spared. He does so, and is hanged in her place.
