EMPIRE PICTURE PALACE. "PINOCCHIO," A WONDERFUL PANTOMIME. At the matinee to-day the Empire management will introduce the wonderful and mueh-looked-for pantomime, "Pinocchio." The management state that "Pinocchio" is a, whimsical story for young and old alike, told in the best and most genial manner, superbly acted, and perfectly .photographed. "Pinocchio," who is a puppet of wood at the beginning, is, during the process of the tale, transformed to a boy. His adventures are many and quaint. He is fired from a cannon, and at one point he is swallowed by a whale. The picture shows the whale and the swallowing. The pictured story of "Pinocchio" is very wholesome, very bright, and very human. The pantomime effects are said to be something ahead of anything yet seen, either in moving picture or any other form. At anyrate, "Pinoechio" has aroused curiosity, and it is safe to say that the Empire Theatre will again have the seating capacity fully taxed this afternoon and evening. In addition to the pantomime, a programme picked from Fuller's latest importation will be projected for the edification and amusement of New Plymouth picture patrons.
