ALLAN HAMILTON'S COMPANY.

Drama will again occupy the Town Hall next Saturday and Monday, when Mr Allan Hamilton's Dramatic Company will stage that sensational play, "Queen of the Night." Mr Hamilton claims to have secured a strong company to interpret the drama. It includes Mr George Cross and Miss Ada Guildford in the leads, Miss May Hesford, Miss Beatrice Usher and Miss Maud Chetwynd, while amorgst the gentlemen will be found Messrs Wilton Power, John Hesford, Wilton Welsh, J. h. Lawrance, H. Ellison, and others, maki lg altogether 35 artists. The season here is limited to two nights, and-on Monday evening "A Message From Mars," of which Mr Hamilton holds the sole rights, will be presented. Regarding the mounting, the Sydney and Wellington press speak in glowing terms. That clever artist, Mr H. Whaite, who was responsible for most of the late Robert Brough's productions, was specially e-gaged to paint the scenery. On Monday night "A Message From Mars" will be produced by special arrangement with Messrs Charles Hawtrey and James Curzon, and it *s promised that this play will be staged in such a manner as has never been seen here before. The box plan is now open at Mis 3 Rive's stationary shop.
