<» - KING'S THEATRE. The new programme of the King's Theatre has proved so popular that the management is giving two screenings daily. ' The Darling of Paris,' founded on Victor Hugo's book ' Tho Hunchback of Notre Damp.' heads this attractive bill, and is supported by ' Bing Bang' (comedy), 'Liltie Miss Happiness,' and 'Scenes in Alps' (scenic). OCTAGON AND KING EDWARD. 'Stolen Hours,' featuring the favorite cinema actress Ethel Clayton, a story that moves swiftly and grips the interest from the opening to the closing scene, is the chief attraction of the Octagon and King Edward Picture Theatres. There is a full supporting programme, including ' The Story of the. Drifters,' a series of pictures showing different naval operations. QUEEN'S THEATRE. The story of a man who has been mined by his faithless wife, and a madcap wager which threw across his path a girl of wonderful beauty of body and soul—the girl Fate had fore-ordained for him—is told in "The Other Man.' to be shown for two more days at the Queen's Theatre. A Charlie Chaplin comedy and a chapter of ' The Double Cross' are added attraction!. PLAZA THEATRE. ' The Hungry Heart,' now showing at the Plaza, which was one of the " six best sellers " the year it was published by Mr Phillips, bid's fair to be an extremely popular photo-play. In it Miss Frederick wears many of her most elaborate gowns, as ahe is supposed to be a young bride recently returned from honeymooning with a marvellous trousseau. The programme will be repeated this evening. 1 EMPIRK THEATRE. Tho six-part drama starring Olga Petrova, entitled ' The Light Within,' in which she displays her impressive personality, will be finally screened this evening. For to-morrow a Marguerite Clark picture is announced as heading the new bill. EVERYBODY'S. There is a very pathetic appeal in the figure of the fisher girl who waited and waited for her lover to return and waited in vain. Mae Marsh plays the part of the forlorn girl to perfection in ' The Beloved Traitor,' now showing at Everybody's Theatre. Chapter 7of 'A Lass of the Lumberlands' and a Mack Sennett comedy complete the programme.
