ENTERTAINMENTS

L EMPIRE PICTURES. The' Empire Theatre attracted a good attendance lasj; evening. To-night will be an entire change of programme. Every item will <be a treat in itself. For those who are attracted * by- military work, "German Officers Training" will supply something which will be instructive and interesting, and give people a good idea of what the training of a German officer is like. Another excel- • lent scenic is 'Bow a letter travels from s I Central Africa," showing all the methods 11 of transit, which reveal to the uniniti--I,'ated the task and management of such f,a service, and incidentally shows the nail ture of the Black Continent, its scenery - and people. For a sensational drama, "The IClondyke Steal" serves up sufficient to satisfy the most fastidious playIgoer, and for a play that reveals the 5 ( character of a woman, "Alice's Sacrifice" j is one that is classed amongst the best, J i The comic element, which causes mirth and excitement, is well supplied in such r films as "The Cinematograph Fiend," "Stubbs' New Servant," "The Toreador" I and "Fdplshead Mannikin." In addition | to the star picture mentioned there will I be others of a varied character, making f up a most attractive programme.
