ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY'S. TRIPLE STAR ATTRACTION TONIGHT. Most people take a good deal of interest in children, merely for tlie kiddies' own sakes, but this is not so with "Two Little the b\-,x picture wherein the little girls Jane and Katherine J.oe feature to-night at Everybody's. For little Miss Kathcrlne and still smaller Miss .fane are accomplished .actresses, and the play itself is full of merry moments. "Two J/ittle Tmps" is the tale of two sisters who work their prankish tricks on an i-m'baTrass-ed bachelor ■rncle, and contrive continually to interrupt his love-making. It is no small interest that centres round these two pretty youngsters. There is a fine Blue-ribbon feature in support entitled "The Other Man," which stars Harry Morey and the beautiful Grace Darmond, also the tenth episode of the "Mystery of the Double Cross" and a Gauinont Graphic. The programme will commence at 7.45 sharp to-night.

THE EMPIRE. AN 0. HENRY STORY. "AN AMERCIAN LIVE WIRE." 'An American Live Wire," which commences a three night nerv.on at the Empire to-night, strikes another nots' of variety, one that will lie appreciated by exhibitor and patron alike. The picture is a special Vitagraph Blue Ribbon feature with the extremely popular star Earle Williams as the leading male character, and Grace Darmond whoso charm and beauty have already stirred the interest of picture goer?, as the chief support. A further interest to the picture is that the story in from one of the wonderfully popular 0. f-Tcnry hooks, "Cabbages and Kings," combining two of the most fascinating stories in that collection into a strong, dramatic, and always interesting picture. 0. Henry is the mfster of dramatic surprises—the prince ox portrayers of human nature and the Vitagraph Company have made "An American Live Wire" live again on the screen. When an 0. Henry' subject is announced for presentation in the silent drama, all ara jiistifol in expecting; something worth while and something with a real tinge of life as it is led somewhere day by day hy real people. "An American Livo Wire" fulfils thest> expectations. The scenes and settings are wonderfully realistic—from New York to a little South American republic—every scene is perfect, many strikingly beautiful scenes being introduced, and then glimpses of native life are excellent. A glance at the advertisement shows there are excellent supports.

COMING TO EVERYBODY'S. 'THE AUCTION BLOCK.;' 'The Auction Block" is to be screened in picture form at Everybody's next Tuesday and Wednesday. Rex Beach personally supervised the production of this fine picture for the Bex Beach Pictures Company. "The Auction Block'' as a novel created a profound sensation when it made its first appearance, and the picture version of this famous story has gone well on its way to do likewise, for it is it vision of the book as it is seen by the author himself, and is delicately interwoven with all the trappings of picture art, and neatly threadled together, scene to scene, and. incident after incident, to make one continuous and delightful whole. The picture will run for two nights only in New Plymouth and the prices of admission will be Stalls Is and D.C. Is (id (plus tax). The box plans are at Collier's and intending patrons would be wise to reserve their seats, which can be done without paying extra charge.
