"GENTLEMAN FROM INDIANA."
.Speaking 'of ; the picture "A Gentleman , from.; Indiana," which forms the:«''star 5' of the'hew programme at His Majesty's to-night; (Friday)' and , to-morrow at . the matinee only, a contemporary says: ' Pen and ink cannot describe the smoothness of the action, the transition from 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 small town the 'main street' of Platville will seem like a picture of the old homestead. To the city born it will bring a view of what a countiy town really looks like. 1 hey 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 us crew of ruffians, the girl who has been adopted by her aunt in the city, all are true to life." To-morrow nigJio (Saturday) the management will present the famous story of the Latin quarter of Paris, "La Vie de lioheme," a Brady-made World film featuring Alice Brady as Mimi. Picture-goers should note that I'ullers now change their programmes on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturdays, and each performance will be screened for two night.
