DE LUXE THEATRE.
"Tho Johnstown Flood," at the head of the programme screened each evening this week at the De Luxe Theatre, provides the acme of enjoyment. It is one of the most breathless films screened in Wellington, and tells the story of a huge dam at the head of the Connemaugh Valley which burst and carried death and destruction to those who lived in the lauds below. The picture is founded on an actual happening in 1889, and has carefully kept to the events which occurred at the time of the tragedy. George O'Brien and Florence Gilbert play the leading roles in a delightful manner, being well supported by a strong cast. The comedy on the programme is "An Officer for a Day," while the Gazette contains scenes of many notable evente, and the music is a delightful portion of the programme.
