QUEEN'S THEATRE.

Great things aj:e promised of the Queen's Theatre when it reopens this week, under entirely new management. Rodolph Valentino, with a reputation as the lover par excellence, excels himself in "The Young- Rajah." Various as have bean his adventures in previous pictures he excels them in this. The greatest part of the story works itself out in the gorgeous splendour of an Oriental setting, with all the mysticism that is the natural accompaniment of it. With a virile style oi acting that is a striking tribute to his ability to adapt himnelf to changing circumstances, he lives very realistically the most adventurous part of university life, while the romantic element is ably conducted with the beautiful Wanda Hawtey. The production will be introduced by an elaborate and artistic Eastern prologue that will not only retain but enhance the mystic fascination and glamour of the Orient so delightful in the picture. The supporting production will be the seventh round of those delightful short sporting stories, "The Leather Pushers," starring Reginald Denny. They are from the pen of H. C. Wilmer. The orchestra, under Mr. A. H. Jerome, has undergone considerable change, and will be known as the Queen's Grand Orchestra, and a musical treat to satisfy the most fastidious is promised. The box plans will open at The Bristol to-morrow.
