AMUSEMENTS.
HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE. ' THE MILLIONAIRE BABY. Sehg's five-real photo-play, "The Millionaire Baby," attracted a good house at His Majesty's Theatre last iiight. The picture is woven round Valeria Carew, a music hall "star," and deals with the tragedy of a childless marriage—the mother craving for the clutch of baby fingers, and the mystery that surround an adopted child which a woman sold and then stole back. The scene in which the millionaire's wife, during her husband's absence, bribes a Dr. Peel to secure an infant for her to adopt, and to pass it off as her own child, is vivid in its reality. A good comedy film entitled "Dimples and the Ring," in which Lilian Walker, the Vitagraph girl, is featured, a drama by Lublin, and a capital War Gazette, complete the programme.
