ENTERTAINMENTS.

THE PEOPLE'S. LAST NIGHT OF BILL RUSSELL AND LOUISE LOVELY. The showing of “The Cheater Reformed” at the People’s Theatre to-night*will be the final showing here of this unusual ! William Fox production. William Rus- . sell, immensely popular with the picture enthusiasts in this city, has the star role. As has been declared in these i columns, the person who fails to see I “The Cheater Reformed” is depriving j himself of one of the best treats the I screen has offered, for some time. Louise ! Lovely also appears in her fine production “While the Devil Laughs,” and Fox gazettes complete the bill. To-morrow’s change presents the big Metro production, “The Million Dollar Dollies,” featuring the famous Dolly Sisters. EVERYBODY’S. ROBERT WARWICK, “THOU ART THE MAN.” An appealing and fascinating adventure story is Robert Warwick’s latest Paramount feature, “Thou Art the Man,” a fascinating story of South Africa’s Diamond mines. The story of a strong man’s fight under the burning skies of Africa, of his supreme sacrifice for a woman, of his final vindication before her eyes and the eyes of the .world. Falsely accused of smuggling I gems, he went to prison to shield the girl he loved. But when he came out and found that the guilty men had poisoned her mind against him—he went after them. F. E. Mills Young’s smashing tale of the diamond fields of Africa. Unusual scenes, whirlwind action with Robert Warwick in a dashing role of .lover, adventurer, convict, tramp. The bill includes gazette, comedy, and “Bride. 13” No. 10. “The Teeth of the Tiger” commences on Friday at 2.30. THE EMPIRE. “THE RIGHT TO HAPPINESS.” TO-MORROW AND FRIDAY. One of the greatest emotional actresses of the screen in a tremendous photodrama will be shown at the Empire Theatre, commencing on Thursday evening, when Dorothy Phillips will appear in “The Right to Happiness,” her latest Universal masterpiece, “The Right to Happiness,” in eight great reels, deals with the fallacy of the radical doctrine, and tears away the mask from the star-chamber sessions of the Russian agitators. Miss Phillips surmounts a difficult dual role with such artistry that critics acclaim it the greatest of all emotional roles portrayed by the greatest emotional actress. The programme. includes the big Universal two-reel comedy “That Dog.” “BRAN PIE.” BOX PLAN'OPENS THIS MORNING. At Collier’s Music Warehouse this morning, at 9 o’clock, the box plans will open for the final performance of the successful musical revue “Bran Pie,” which is to be staged in the Empire Theatre next Saturday evening, July 16, date of the South African v. Taranaki football match. In view of the crowds that were turned away every evening during the last successful season of the New Plymouth Courtiers’ Costume Comedy Company, it is to be particularly impressed on intending patrons the necessity of securing their seats at the opening of the plan, and thereby avoiding disappointment, as it is certain the theatre will be much too small to accommodate the crowds that have already signified their intention of seeing the last performance. Prices are: 4s for reserved seats, and should the seating accommodation be not all booked, there

will be a few seats at 3s and 2s. All t prices plus
