The new projecting machine was in use at His Majesty’s Iheatre last night, when a new programme was presented, and gave every satisfac- , tion, the pictures being very steady, and there being an almost total ab- ■ sence of noise. “Coward or Hero?” >Vas the chief dramatic picture, showing exciting scenes in a coal mine during an explosion. A fine film was “The Rescue - of Molly Finney,’ ’dealing with the abduction of a girl by Canadian Indians, and her rescue by her lover. “Soap Bubbles” and “The League of Mercy” also depicted interesting stories. The scenic films wore well up to the standard, pictures being screened of scenes in Monaco, San Marino, and Singapore, thus covering a wide circle; and, as usual, the Pathe Gazette was brimful of topical scenes. Iho comic films—“ Method in His Madness,” . “Spring-Heel Jack Up-to-date,” “The Senator and the Suffragettes,” and “The Misses Finch and their Nephew Billy”—all created much merriment. The programme will bo repeated until Thursday, when a new programme will bo screened. It was announced last night that all those attending at the theatre on Wednesday would be given a free pass for Thursday’s' entertainment.
