KING'S THEATRE.
There are two features in the change of programme at the King's Theatre, "I Will Repay," and "Square Crooks." The former is a screen adaptation of Baroness Orczy's wellknown book, and deals with a period uf French history when the revolution was at its height. Two men fight a duel over- a dancing girl, and the younger man is killed. His father, the last of an ancient house, makes his daughter take an oatli that she will bring about the ruin of her brother's slayer. With the passing of the years the successful duellist lias become an idol of the public, and the events leading to his disgrace, and the girl's atonement for her act, are portrayed in a realistic manner. The second feature, "Square Crooks," is a picture out of the ordinary. It is the story of two young men who endeavour to leave their past behind and run straight. They are forced to leave their employment through the actions of a police ofllcer, and when a large theft is reported from the homo of their former employer, suspicion falls on them- Ai-. though the picture is of a serious nature, there are some exceedingly-humorous incidents. There is a scenic on the programme, and tlio orchestra supplies appropriate music.
