"OUR BOYS IN EGYPT."

The bravery and daring of the New Zealand troops at Gallipoli have been emphatically commended all round, and General Sir lan Hamilton, in a dispatch to tho Government, has expressed the greatest praiso and admiration for the troops' bravery and tenacity during the landing operations. At Everybody's Theatre to-day a picture of patriotic interest, entitled "Our Troops in f'pyptj" bo screened. Tliq picture introduces tho New Zealand and Australian troops undergoing the arduous training which has fitted them so well for their strenuous work at the Dardanelles. The series, embraces operations carried out as in actual warfare, and a close view is obtained of maiiy of the men. The now famous 3rd Australian Brigade is shown in conjunction with the Dominion troops.. Supporting subjects include "Hogan's Romance "Upset (Keystone), featuring Charley Murray. "Fear of his Past" (Majestic drama), tho "Gaumont Graphic," and others. MACMAHON'S THEATRE. The change of programme at MacMahon's Theatro to-day is headed by a capital London drama entitled "The Fringo of War." The picture has no direct connection with tho present European complications, for it is purely an intense dramatic story with a strong military interest, and oil its production in London its glittering patriotism and stirring incident are said to have evoked the wildest enthusiasm. "Tho Folly of Ami" is drama in a different vein, and is a pretty love story.' The comedy element is well sustained with "The Honoymooners," a particularly bright and diverting comedy featuring the late John Bunny. The Topical Gazette contains no fewer than fourteen separate picture subjects. The next star attraction, "In Her Mother's Footsteps," a big Lubin drama, will be produced on Thursday. THE EMPRESS. There was a record attendance at the popular Empress Theatre on Saturday night, when that fine drama, "The Candle and the Moth," was shown for tho last time. To-day's all-new list features the popular Keystone comedian, Syd Chaplin, in one of tho company's latest comic releases, "Gussle's Day of Rest," which, as those who are familiar ith the topsy-turveydom methods of the Keystone people will readily guess, is more a day of riot and ruction. The title opens up possibilities for much fun. "A War Baby" is described as a strongly emotional yet powerful and convincing Lubin story of love and noble impulses by a female military spy. "Life at the Front," disclosing the conditions under which the men in the trenches are fighting, should be especially interesting. "The Latest War Topical" includes the Queen's Westminster Regiment, heroes of other wars, Sultan of Turkey, Ireland's new Viceroy, Dublin Castle reception, Black Watch | Highlanders, and Nurses' Brigade. j THE CHER.NIAVSKY TRIO. | Tho Russian musicians, Leo, Jan, and • Mischel Cherniavsky have created a phenomenal interest in music in New Zealand, and before leaving for tho American Continent they will give farewell concerts here on July 7, 8, and 10. Their Mendelssohn trio, the first Movement, gives the artists ample t.pportunity of displaying their technical rnasi tery and rare temperamental qualities, while the andante movement reveals absolute unanimity and purity of tone. The gay scherzo is played with marked verve and delicacy, and the final Allegro assai Appassionata is marked by a beautiful continuative passage for violin and 'cello which is played with unbroken suavity and charm.
