THOMPiOH-PAYNE PICTURE!. "THE LADY CRACK SHOT." To-night Messrs Thompson-Payne will present their Saturday change of programme, and patrons may be | assured of witnessing an. excellent se- | lection. A good attraction is promised in "A Two-fold Inheritance," or "Tiio Lady Crack Shot." The story of this-film is apart from the orthodox. Nothing is exaggerated, but throughout the entiro screening of this picture attention to detail and perfection in-• photo-play are marked features. The story shows how a girl \Vtio learned to be a crack shot with a rifle was able to use the same to great advantage in later life. "The Lipton Cup," a Selig adaptation, introducing the famous yachtsman, Sir Thomas Lipton, , should prove a fascinating dramatic item. A very fine prison life romance will be shown in the Kalem's latest effort entitled "The Honour System," which goes to show that reform can be accomplished in other than punishment. A Western item will be ■giveii In another Kg,lemdrama entitled "Bill frcfe Arizona." A new oomiedv diversion '%itt be shown in "Grateful Oupfd," whilst; "Eugene in Love" and ' 'Bloomer's Governess ' will also add materially to the comic element. " "The Ainus of Japan" is an interesting Selig scenic. The usual matinee .will be given at 2.30 this afternoon,'when the little ones, will see something special.
