AMUSEMENTS.
LYCEUM,
Stirring scencs are rife in "The Little Minister," a Paramount picture at tlie Lyceum Theatre to-night. The screen version of Sir J. M. Barrio's book and play is weil night perfect. The weavers become angered at the reduction in the price paid for their web, and burn u factory. The constabulary, proving helpless, the military are called out. The instinctive hatred of the Scot for the English red-coats bursts into flame, and the villagers hastily arm themselves. The soldiers descend upon the village, only to find the ringleaders'for whom they were sent, have gone. The gipsy girl, Babbie, is arrested for her part in the escape, and brought before the magistrate. This, arrest provides a fitting climax to a great picture.
