ENTERTAINMENTS.

"DOUUII AXD DYNAMITE." To-night at tie Empire commences the screening of the new programme, which is headed by what the management describes as the greatest of all 'Keystone comedies, "Dough and Dynamite"—one ha f-liour of hilarity. Charles Chaplin, the iniintahlc comedian, has a very big part in this comedy, and he displays his varied talents to a laughtershrieking degree. Chaplin, in this instance. is employed in a baker's shop, where a strike occurs. He volunteers to fill the baker's position. Ilis primitive i:,<!hod.-. of mixing the dough and tile artle.-s way in which he spreads it ov • waitresses, assistants and the pi'oprieti.r, causes no end of fun, but the dough docs not rise until the strikers put a plug of dynamite into the oven, and the last one sees of it is a rapid rise, as the fnnny baker lifts himself out of the sticky mass. Supporting subjects include: "His Chorus Girl Wife" (Edison drama), " Maria's (Sacrifice" ( Vilagraph drama), "The Hop Smugglers" (Reliance drama), "Domestic Devon" (London interest), "Egyptian Monuments" (Pathe interest), "Magazine Cooking" (Lubin comic), "("lathering Coeoanuts in the Philippines" (I'athecolor industrial) and the latest Patlle Cazette. Seats may be reserved at the theatre, or by 305.
