MONTGOMERY'S COMPANY.

This is one of the best shows that visits New Plymouth, and as the season is for two nights on'y, Wednesday and Tnursday next, we have no doubt that there will be crowded houses. No expense has been spared, and with a cireful selection of material Mr Montgomery now has the best show he has yet brought here, the programme bsing full of novel dee. The bioscope ssenes include " Join of Arc," 1000 fee 1 ; long, and taking 20 minutes to show. It is the most costly and supaibly mounted production yea seen, over 500 persons enacting the scenes, all magnificently costumed. It pourtrays the lif<>, triumphs, and tragic end of the Maid of Orleans, and «s a spectacular and historical subject has no equal. The accident to the Shamrock shows the narrow escape King Edward VII had from serious accident, and it gives a splendid view of the lines of Sir Thomas L : ptoo's famous yaohfc, which has just unsuccessfully contested tbe America Gup. The Dartos performing their favourite dances is another of their new films, and * is exceedingly popular. In addition there are a large numb-r of newly imported illustrations. Mr Harry Hall, the famous humourut and refined comedian will give his latest songs. Mr Peter Eade will j appear in his novel sketches, and Fred {Gibson in comic specialities. This trip jMr Montgomery is showing more (novelties than he ha* befo-e brought here. The box plan is at Mr MoKinI non Bain's.
