KING'S THEATRE.
Picture drama of an unusual type is shown at the King's Theatre in Marshal Neilan's "Bits of Life." The film is described »s' expressing the producer's revolt against the stereotyped "happyl ending" picture play, and consists of a series of three powerful little "stones of life," and a light and yet thrilling ' 'dream drama. ■In one story ' a typical American criminal turns from his evil ways for once to play the good. Samaritan, and his one good deed lands him in prison. In the second a stone-deaf jnan, by means of an artificial aid, recovers his hearing, and has his life shattered as the result; and the third is a rather terrible Chinatown story of superstition and death. Mr. Culford Bell recites veryably "Life is a Game of Cards" and "Not Understood." An epilogue is presented in a dance by Misses Joan' Beere and Florence. Heyworth.
