KING'S THEATRE.
The^big Christmas week programme at the King's Theatre commenced its seasou with to-day's matinee performance, and. runs nightly at 8 p.m. and daily at 2.30 thereafter.. It is composed of two apodal attractions, ''The Runaway Express and "Rolling Home," starring Reginald Denny. The photoplays represent one of the strongest programmes ever presented at this jjjoturc. lioiiso. There is a matinee and evening performance to-mor-row. (Christmas Day), although "The Kunaway Express" will not appear on the evening programme for the 25th, as an earjy .conclusion is necessary on that night to coincide with the limited, tram service, i There is, however, in support of "Rollin^ Home'an exceptional minor bill. "The Kunaway Express" 'is reported to be a great rajlroad'romanee. A prominent Ira.erican paper says "It is a super dramatic spectacle of railroad life.". The other feature, "Rolling Home,"- with,;the .famous Reginald Denny, lias just completed a record week at the De Luxe Theatre, and is undoubtedly one of Denny's best. Situation is piled upon situation, with the comedy growing at each new scene, until the audience begins to wonder vaguely if the hero ever can be extricated from the hopeless tangle in which ho lias become involved. Marion Nixon heads the remainder of the cast. King's Select Orchestra renders a specially-selected musical programme.
