ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. DORALDINA IN “THE WOMAN UNTAMED.” Doraldina is at her best in “The Woman Untamed.” a South Sea Island story revealing a dancer’s wonderful magnetism. Perhaps no other picture released in previous years has featured, such dancing as is perpetuated by Doraldina in her latest production, which opens to-night at Everybody’s, “The Woman Untamed.” She is supported by Dark Cloud., the mysterious and savage -witch doctor,” and Jay Morley, as the young sportsman who linds on a cannibal island in the South Seas, an atmos- , phere made forever vivid and alluring by Robert Louis Stevenson and | London. Doraldina as “Nasoni,” her | landing among the man-eating savages of this island, and her strange influence over them, paves the way to the heart of a strange romance. The story provides Doraldina with a sound reason for some of the most unusual aud da ing dances, and in the dance she has instilled all the temperament, abandon, fire and spirit characteristic of the spansih dances. The bill include gazettes and the big Christie special com ly “DiningRoom, Kitchen and Sink.” The matinee to-morrow commences at 2 p.m. THE PEOPLE'S. LAST NIGHT- OF JEWEL CARMEN. The pleasing Metro production “The Silver Lining,” featuring Jewel Carmen, concludes to-night, at the People’s. It presents in an absorbing manner an unusual story where love and the law k-'ep the swiftlv moving plot at high tension. Thrills ami throbs flash all through the engrossing story as society and the polished underworld clash in a skilful batt e of wits and money. The bill includes gazette, comedy and ’’The Diamond Queen.” To-morrow's change presents Tyrone Power in his latest Selzn ck production "The Fighter." a powerful p’ay of adventure and romance. The matinee to-morrow commences at 2 p.m. STRASBURG CLOCK EXHIBITION. Strasburg is famous for its remarkable clock. It is not the privilege of everyone to see the original, but New Plymouth folks are offered an opportunity of viewing the grand model, which is now on its fourth tour of the world. It stands twelve feet high, and is six feet in width, and reproduces all the wonderful workings of the great original, Strasburg, which was taken from France by the Germans in 1871 (Franco-Prussian War), and restored to France during the recent Great War. This fact adds interest to the exhibition. Everyone should see the greatest handiwork achievement the world has ever seen —the model of the Cathedral of Strasburg, an astronomical and mechanical wonder. This structure of religious worship ranks , amongst the finest in the universe, and is the admiration of all nations. The mechanical mysteries are in motion every quarter of an hour, and are fully described in a clear anti enjoyable manner. Hours of exhibition at Hooker’s sample rooms, Egmont Street, are from 2 to 5 and 7 to 10 p.m. daily.
