ENTERTAINMENTS.

"SELF-CONAWrED" AT THE LYCEUM. . The new programme of Hay ward's | Pictures was shown to .a large and j appreciative crowd at the Lyceum Theatre last evening. "Self-Convict- , od," the star picture, is a stirring drama, and contains a number of exciting situations which keep the spectators in a state of sustained interest from the start to the finish. "The Diamond Crown" is a really good detective story, and came in for a great reception. '.Just in Time" is also a most interesting and clever photodrama. The AVarwick Chronicle is topical, "Sea Birds on the AVelsh Coast" is a beautiful nature study, and there are some good comics. ""A MESSAGE FROM MARS." The management of Hayward's pro-, turns announces that the first, screening in Feilding of the widely-known and: favourite nlay "A Message From Mars," by Richard Ganthony, will take place in the Lyceum Theatre to-morrow evening. -■ The presentation of the play in picture form is described as a re-production of an actual London preformance hy the eminent English actor, Mr Charles Hawtrey, and his talented company. The story is based on the evils of selfishness and man's inhumanity to man, .find tells of a poor tramp who craves assistance of one Horace Parker, a thoroughly, yet unconsciously, Kolfish man. Parker ignores the tramp's appeal and.sends him forth ciiipty-lianded into the bitter cold of si winter's night. The messenger's object is, or course, to inculcate the lesson of unselfishness and kindness to others. And in this he succeeds. See the picture, and seat* should bo booked at Bissett's.
