AMUSEMENTS.

lIAYWA RD 'S-PULLER 'S PICTURES. It' you want to see Charles Chaplin, after a night with the boys, getting in through the window of another man'a house at 1 a.m., and putting in a wild half-hour in a room full of stuffed wild animals that stare at him with glassy eyes and snarling, .gleaming teeth, go to the Opera House to-night. The hit that really mado Chaplin was " I a.m.," described as a side-splitting scream from end to end. Chaplin inebriated is funny enough, but an inebriated Chaplin'trying to steer his way past, the feavsome shapes of savage beasts is—well, really, you must go and see him, The thing, baffles description. In addition to this mirth-provoking attraction, the bill is featured by a .powerful marine drama entitled "Sons-of the Sea," in which romance, tragedy, and vivid incident are skilfully interwoven in the d6vclopment of a dramatic climax, with an appealing touch of humanity. This production ifl described as one of the- best of the Lubln Conipiiny's recent dramatic successes, The public Interest in the great war in Europe is catered for in, various interesting studies, which include a series of scenes from one of the great war factories, "The Birth of a Big Bomb," showing the wonderfully complicated processes in tho : ' mnnufae-. hire of these terriblo engines of, destruction. "How to Presor.vo Plants and Flowers" is another feature of the bill which'should appeal to all lovers of Nature in leaf and bloom. ' _ '
