"WON YET LOST."

The "Won Yet Lost" programme Jjeing presented at the Town Hall drew another good house last evening, ■when the splendid series of powerful films was shown in highly artistic fashion. There was not one dull moment during the entire programme, which clearly indicates the high .merits of tho various pictures screened. The audience were kept entranced by the star filnu "Won Yet Lost," a pictorial drama which cannot fail to impress all who witness-its sA many splendid K-tuations, which -towith the realistic and dramatic episodes occurring right through the piece make one of the most intensely interesting photo-plays yet screened in, Masterton. Each film remaining plays an important part in completing a highly entertaining and instructive programme. A feature of the series are tho coloured films, including "Miss Eta,' I 'a clever acrobat, who some amazing feats, "Niagara Falls," and "The Triar.cs," two magnificent scenics of the world's .wonders. ' "The Smuggler's Wife" is A powerfully conceived and forceful coloured drama, which proves attractive and interesting.

"LOVE'S REVENGE." The great drama "Love'ci Revenge" drew a packed audience to the Foresters' Hall last evening. ■' The drama was a particularly good one; its equal lias not been seen in, Masterton for m long time. It is a thrilling story of love, villany and retribution, in which a woman's wit defeats a scoundrel of the first water. The picture .jb 2500 feet long, and there is not a dull moment in the whole drama. Lovers of first-class drama are advised not to miss this superb photo-play. ,The other pictures include a particularly fine range of dramas, comedies, and scenics. "In Littlo Italy" is a drama enacted amid beautiful surroundings. "Chins-ton Wurchill" is n clever parliamentary skit, while "Th ft 'First Woman Jury" brought forth screams of laughter. . "The Miser's Christmas" is a beautiful vision play, and "The Moorish Raiders" provide plenty of excitement. Sensational Indian pictures are always in demand with Foresters' Hall patrons, and a ipleasant surprise was sprung on patirony last evening when the firm showed that famous Wild West Carnival .picture "The Cowboy and Indian Carnival at Cheyenne," which came to ihand at the last minute direct from Sydney. The picture is 2000 feet long, and shows America's most daring cowboys and Indians in marvellous feats of riding, buokjumping, bull dozing, steer lassooing, etc. Among the 'participant" is ex-President Roosevelt, 'America's "Cowboy President." This tixcellent programme will be shown again this evening.
