ENTERTAINMENTS.

SAUNDERS' BIOGRAPH PICTURES. Whiteley Hall was packed again last night to witness the excellent programme now running, which includes the Coronation fUm. The programme will be changed again to-morrow night, when the orchestra will play throughout the evening. ROYAL PICTURES AND ORCHESTRA. Out of respect to the death of His Worship the Mayor (Mr. G. Tisch) the proprietors (Messrs. Crust and Collin) of the Royal Pictures did not open the Theatre Royal last night. To-night the four thousand feet of West's exclusive Coronation films will be repeated, and the New Plymouth public who so far have not witnessed these gorgeous cele-, brations will do well to avail themselves of the present opportunity. The passage of the State coach appears throughout in no less than seven different portions of the route, and one really begins to imagine oneself among the thronging masses of the assembled populace. The most magnificently colored dramatic film by the Path! Freres Company, entitled "The Masked Ball," will be repeated tonight only, and is undoubtedly the finest of its kind yet screened here. "Tunis and Ruins of Carthage," a scenic film, "The Affected Young Ladies," "Sweet Tempered Wife" and "Tom Thumb in Lovo" (comics) are to be repeated, in addition to a batch of new subjects. The Royal Pictures Orchestra, under the capable management of Mrs. Woods, proved itself a great boon to the new picture enterprise. The prices of admission have been reduced, viz., 6d to all parts downstairs, and Is to the dress circle.
