ENTERTAINMENTS.
EMPIRE PICTURES. Last night's bi-weekly change of programme at the Empire Picture Palace ineluded a number of the latest Continental. successes. No doubt people will remember the sensational manner in which the hero and heroine effected their escape in "The Slave of Carthage," a film shown here some time back. A film by the same company (Ambrosio), "The Ship and the Lions," was screened last night. This film, which was marvellously and realistically got up, was sensational to a degree, and its many thrilling scenes held the audience spell-bound. The acting was also considerably above par, and the same can be said of the scenic effects. "The Defence of Khuma Hospital" was a stirring tale of the restless Indian border, and was brimful of excitement and heroic incident. The two star pictures were supported by a first-class assortment of dramatic, scenic, and comic subjects.
