QUEEN'S THEATRE.

The Garden of Weeds," featuring Betty Compson, will be screened at the Queen's Theatre for the last time this evening. Miss Compson has the role of a chorus girl, who falls in love with a millionaire, but finds that money is not the most attractive thing in life. There is an excellent supporting programme. J. K. Mac Donald's First National photoplay, 'Frivolous Sal," featurine Eugene O'Brien, will be screened at the Queen's Theatre to-morrow evening. . It is a thrilling story of a pioneer mining town of the West, in which a girl and a small boy help a man to find himself. The cast includes Mac Busch, Ben Alexander, Mildred Harris, Mitchell Lewis, and Tom Santschi. Some of the story's most important action takes place in a huge cavern that a stream of melting ice has carved out under the famous Nisqually glacier, near the top of Mount Rainier. Amid these marvels of Nature the tensely dramatic love story of a beautiful girl of the pioneer mining camps and her sweetheart, a stranded actor, has been filmed. There is thrilling action from the start, with a climax, in which two men battle for the love of a girl while suspended from a wire tramway over a deadly gorge. An added attraction will be an eccentric dancing act by Mr. Phil Barry and Miss Hazel Martin.. The turn by these two young people is stated to be one of the most novel ever presented in Wellington. The box plan is now open at The Bristol.
