ENTERTAINMENTS.

STEVENSON'S P3CTURES. To-night's bill of fare at the Town Hall contains quite a collection of the best in drama, comedy, etc. In "A Tale of Two Cities," by the Yitagraph Company, there is what is generally con-j sidered to be the best dramatic produc- j tion the cinematograph has given to the; world, tb<? acting, staging, costuming, etc., being unique. It is beyond doubt j a marvellous picture and contains some ,4000 ft. of film, yet there is not a dull moment. There is in addition an excellent selection of subjects, and altogether the programme is a very fine one. "A Tale of the Sea." "A Miser's Heart," "The Lonely Villa" and "His Exoneration" provide a powerful array of drama. "Pathe's Gazette," containing pictorial intelligence of topical events across the also "Uses and Customs of the Chinese Empire," arc certain to prove both interesting and instructive. "Foolshead" is a name which_ practically ensures something j good in the mirth-provoking channel, j while "Kelly's Disgrace," '"Tips and j Downs," etc., are of a high standard.
