AMUSEMENTS

KINGS, TO-NIGHT. ] "Carmen of Klondike'' —A. super attraction in the form of an eightpart drama of. frozen Alaska, and a companion picture to "The Flame of the Yukon," will be shown at the King's to-night and Wednesday. In "Carmen of the Klondike," the new Selexert drama of the frozen Alaskan goldficlds scenes of great natural beauty are abundant; wonderful snow scenes have been effected and a never-to-be-forgotten struggle between two old men in the drenching rain provides an outstanding climax. The men roll round aud batter each other; they are soaked to the skin and covered with slime and mud, but continue the fight until the hero, ultimately, is the victor, "'he story, in brief, involves the love ftiory of Dorothy Harlan ("Carmen of the Klondike") and Cameron. Stewart. The success of the big comedy, "Between the Acts." has brought many requests for its repeat. The management will again show it tonight only. Usual prices will rule. TOWN HAT J. TO-NIGHT. Nothing more cosy ami comfortable' can be desired than a seat either downstairs or in the circle at the Town Hall, ! now that, the stoves are installed and! going strong. Another point is that I the management and staff are careful to keep the doors closed during the show and thereby protect their patrons from the annoying draughts often experienced in picture halls. The new programme for to-night features the popular Hale Hamilton in a five-act Metro comedy entitled "Full pi Pep." It is v. story of humour and adventure in a Central American republic during a revolution. The comedy scenes are irresistibly clever, and Hale Hamilton in this breezy picture scores yet. another success. VAUDEVILLE AND PICTUEEft. In conjunction,with the pictures to-

the Town Hall will present the clever vaudeville .turn from Pullers'., Wendy and Alphonse. These are two remarkably clever sketch artists who combine daintiness and originality in their act, wMeh includes pianologues, humorous skits, character impersonations., parodies, lightning 'changes and comedy sketches. Play-goers will remember their appearance here recently with the "Alsace" company, when their clever work evoked great enthusiasm. Everything this visit will be new and original.
