ENTERTAINMENTS.

THE EMPIRE. LAST NIGHT OF "THE NAULAHKA." "Tlie Naulahka," a very prettily-set film indeed, tells of a great quest through India for a famous jewel, called, as the title implies, "The Jewel of Desire." The picture is from an interesting story by Rudyard Kipling; it is produced by Pathe, and screened as the headline? at the Empire. Antonio Moreno has the big part in "The Naulahka," and makes a powerful business of it. To-night will be the final screening of the wonder film. COMING TO-MORROW. VIOLA DANA IN "THE WINDING TRAIL." The star item on -to-mororw's change i will be the Metro feature The Winding Trail," with winsome little Viola Dana !as the star performer. This is a story of the big American deserts, tlie mining camps and the great plains before the coming of the railways and ftuer civilisation. EVERYBODY'S. LAST NIGHT OP MARY MILES MINTER IN "HER COUNTRY'S 1 CALL." The character of a wild little mountain girl who finally turns' out to be the stolen daughter of a social -leader, was portrayed by Mary Miles Minter in "Her' Country's Call," at Everybody's last night is one of charm, mirtlii and not a, little pathos. The picturo ?s well termed a patriotic story, as whilst not dealing in any way with war it shows the love of even the wild little mountain girl for her country's honor. Mary is superb in this part and delighted the 'hearts of her many followers. "Her Country's Call" will be screened for the last time to-night. COMING TO-MORROW. WILLIAM FARNUM.
