The contest was an exciting one, and the bioscope operator lias managed to obtain excellent pictures of the race. The rest of the programme is composed ol the latest pictures. Pat he Gazette No. 101 is an excellent number, "'Where the Wind Blows" is a powerful Vitigraph drama, and "An Eventful Evening" is another excellent story. "The BlackI"ordered Letter" is an extremely fascinating detective subject, and "Bertie's Bandit" contains many exciting situations. "Western Ireland" contains remarkably well selected views of Irish life, and "Snakes and their habits" should prove an interesting natural study. The programme is strong in laughter-makers.
