THREE STARS PICTURE THEATRE.
The star to-night will be one- of those popular Yitagraphs, entitled "The Silent Flea"—the story of a young widow left penniless with two children. She finds herself unable to support them, and they are taken from her and placed in an orphanage. Growing entirely away from her good influence, they become incorrigibles, and shortly after they are returned to her. The Littfle Widow appeals to an old friend, a Senator. Her story Incites him to an impassioned speech in favour of the "Widowed Mothers' Pension Bill, which is passed. "W-hon Charlie was a Child" is a skit on the Keystones, and is acted by children—a very amusing picture. Other items: "Australian Gazette," "A Lily of Bohemia" (featuring that popular actress, Lillian Walker. This programme will be shown for two nights only, and should not be missed.
