KING'S THEATRE.
A picture containing some novel aspects, entitled "The Million Dollar Collar," is the main attraction in the change of programme at the King's Theatre. :'The Milliion Dollar Collar" features the famous dog, "Rin-Tin-Tin who plays an important part in the story. With the aid of the dog, an apparently blind beggar manages to steal a very valuable necklace from a jeweller's shop, and for safety's sake the neck-lace is hidden in the collar around the clog's neck. The thief is sent away to hide and takes the dog with him, but as the result of n drinking bout the former allows the" do" to escape from his care and make friends with a tramp who impersonates the thief. At first the tramp is unaware of the nature of the crime, or that the valuable "haul" is stowed away in the dog's collar, and he takes but scant notice of the antics of tho dog, and worries less over the safety of the collar. Eventually, after a period of "hiding," the tramp realises the extent of the robbery, and then sets about to thwart the robbers. Ho is assisted by the dog, who displays a high degree of intelligence. After the canine "star " those prominent in the picture are Phil. M'Culloeh Tommy Dugan, Matty Kemp, Alan Cavin and Evelyn Pierce. There is, of course a pretty romance woven throughout the story.' The suphv Ihf 'ilo^ lll^ includes "Light Cavalry," rtLi t, V"aphone Symphony Orchestra; piano the «Pnnr°iT, n den ' Vocal «""»bers by the Four Aristocrats," and an amusing sketch
