ENTERTAINMENTS.

•*"' **** J LAST NIG Hl* OF "NEVER TOO LATE TO MEND" AT HA WARD'S. The &iison Company enjoys a WcllGdrft; ed reputation for thoroughness. It ia further enhanced by their adaptation into photo-play form of Charles Reade's masterful story, "It is Never too late to Mend." Needless to say, a very strong caste is employed. Harry Beaiuiiotit is "Josephs*" a convidt, BigeloW Cooper is "Francis Eden," a .curate. Charles Ogle "John Meadows,", the wealthiest »m«n in the village, and Mary Fuller plays the part of "George Feild-, ing's" sweetheart. Throughout the production the spectators do not allow their eyes to wander from the screen, so completely absorbed get. . - The accompanying subject® are all fully up to Hayward's usual very high -tandard. There are three irresistibly amusing comedies. That popular and versatije artist! Florence Turner is seen to much advantage 1 in a really smart satirical society sketch. The only John Bunny is simply immense in "Dr. Bridget." "The Artist's Nightmare" is another of the amazing, but none the lees humorous, "trick" comics. There are two other splendid dramatics in "The Psychology, of Fear," a very potent and well carried out problem play by the Thanhouser Company, and "Omens of the Mesa," a sensational Vitagraph. Very fine views of the'city of Rouen are shown, and also a very interesting one of a taxidermist at work. The sailors of H.M.S. New Zealand at play in Newtown Park, Wellington,; adds further variety to a capital bill of fare. "QUEEN OF THE REDSKINS." The George Marlow Dramatic Company concluded their local season last evening,! with a good interpretation of the Indian 1 romance. "Queen of the Redskins." The acting wa6 again excellent. The scenery ! was on an extensive scale, and the whole setting of the play was very fine. The company left for the north to-day.
