AMUSEMENTS.

FOLEY'S PICTURES. LAST NIGHT OF THE EAGLE'S NEST. "This is the realisation of my one, big: ambition." I t [ f Tile speaker- was '"Edwin Arden, actor and playwright;" tlie place, a sheltered valley in the heart of the Garden of the Gods, Colorado; the time, a week after the Lubin Company had camped in the mountains to produce "The Eagle's Nest." When the Company approached him with regard to the film rights to bis drama, "The Eagle's Nest," and also asked him to play the principal role, he jumped at the chance as the realisation of the long cherished ambition; It is only to be expected that when a man is playing a character of his own creation, among surroundings which have always appealed to him, his work should be of a high order. As Jack Trail, in childhood the sole survivor of an Indian massacre, and years later the backwoodsman, who, in avenging the slaying of his fostermother, discovers his real identity. Arden is a magnetic, forceful figure. The film will be screened to-night for tlie last time. The supports include a good comedy and the latest number of rathe's War Gazette.

HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

LANTERN WAR LECTURE

To-morrow night Mr John Kelland, of London, will give his final lecture in Stratford, when he will tell lis "Why wo know the Allies will win, and when." This lecture has drawn crowded houses in every town visited and as everybody is interested in the war and will be anxious to know how long it is going to last, there is likely to be a crowded house. Mr Kelland correctly foretold the day Britain would enter the conflict four days

before the event, also the side on which Italy and Turkey would fight several months ahead. Mr Kelland will explain the system upon which he based his deductions, leading with the Biblical prophecies.
