QUEEN'S THEATRE.
"The Amateur Gentleman" is no*v showing in film £orm at tha Queen's Theatre. This talo can be described as a large page of eventful English history, full of bold intrigue, natural drama, and gilded romance. Among the many stirring scenes—and the action is kept up at a fast pace through' out-r-are pistol duels, encounters to the death with steel, and a tremendously exciting steeplechase. Tlio bold, daiing exploits of tho bloods give 6cope for ii fii;<3 picture, and this is taken advantage of to the last degree. No better artist than Richard Barthelraess could have been selected for the main role, and in the part of a fighting blade, a part which suitg him perfectly, he shines particularly brightly. A rapidly-moving comedy-romance of the West is shown in support. This is entitled "Bringins Home the Bacon," and stars Buffalo Bill,' jua. Other items are two comedies, "It's » Pipe," snd "Peggy's Heroes." Also thero aro a Topical Budget and a Gaumont Graphic.
