AMUSEMENTS.

THOMPSON-PAYNE PICTURES. The new electric generator recently installed by the enterprising lessees of the Foresters' Hall has more than fulfilled expectations. It is a very powerful machine, and the pictures are most brilliantly projected. The powerful current necessary to give full effect to the many beautiful films which we have seen screened, may be realised by the fact that the generator now at the hall' would light up, quite a small town. Brilliancy of lighting in projection means gain in stereoscopic effect, and we are certainly getting a magnificent picture now. The programme of last night was keenly appreciated bj an enthusiastic audience, and to-hifeht a full, change of programme will be screened. The star film is "Redwing's Gratitude," a superb Indian drama, acted by real Indians in their own picturesque surroundings, the natural scenery introduced into this great picture is beautiful to a degree, and the story deals with the perils at the American emigrant at the period when the noble red man was wild and untamed. Redwing is a squaw who is rescued from the brutal Indian husband by an emigrant en route for the West. Redwing's gratitude is displayed by saving a white girl emigrant frcm th£ cruelties of an Indian Chief. The programme is a very fine one, and well up to the T.P. standard.
