"GENTLEMAN FROM INDIANA."

Speaking of the picture "A Gentleman from Indiana," which forms the "star" of the new^ programme at His Majesty's to-night (Thursday), a contemporary says:— Pen and ink cannot describe the smoothness of the action, tlie transition fr.om scene to scene as Mr Farnum lives, not acts, the part of the character he is portraying. To the man or Woman who was born in a s'mall town the 'main street' of Plat- [ ville will seem like a picture of tlfe ; old homestead. To the city born it [ will bring a view of what a country [ 'town really looks like. And the characters are the everyday persons one meets in a town of this kind. The local political boss, the University professor, who has fallen from grace through his love for liquor, •and reforms when offered a helping .hand,, the leader of 'Whitecaps' and ,Ins. crew of ruffians, the girV Avho;,has /been adopted by her aunt in the city all are true to life. Tlibse who like a ■ strong love story, of a real man and a real woman, will, not be disappointed." - • • ■• r
