FINAL OF STINGAREE. A special matinee programme will be shown at The Empire this afternoon when the chief pictures will be "Tiu Waiter's Ball," a comedy scream, "The Littlest Magdalene," drama, and the final adventure of the great "Stingaree." This programme has been specially arranged to suit the little ones and parents can be quite sure that the kiddies will have an enjoyable afternoon and be quite safe at The Empire. LAST SCREENING OF "HYPOCRITES" TO-NIGHT. With the final screening of "Hypocrites" to-night the public will have the last opportunity of witnessing what has been described as a truly remarkable allegorical study of humanity. The writer of scenario, Lois Weber, has con ceived the idea of holding up the mirror of truth'to the shams, hypoericies folliiM, and vices »f the world by spiritualising a strikingly beautiful statue of truth, in the nude, and causing the figure to carry her lamp into the highways aiw by-ways of life. The story of the allegory is a beautiful conception, and throughout is a picture play of undoubted artistic merit, pointing its powerful morals with exceeding delicacy. The last adventure of "Stingaree" will also be screened to-night.
