AMUSEMENTS.
HIS MAJESTY’S THEATRE. An excellent programme ofstar pictures is to lie screened at His Majesty’s Theatre to-night. Featured in the series is a-magnificent \ itagrapu drama, entitled “The Red Cross Martyr,} every foot of which is brimming with interest. The “School Teacher and the Waif” is an excellent farce comedy. Little Nora, is called the madcap of the village. She was not vicious, hut merely mischievous, with her heart in the right place. Her madcap nature is not to ho wondered at as she was allowed to run wild, her mother being dead and her father a labourer. The school commissioners wrote to Iter father, in-sisting-that she bo sent to school, and she would have been happy there if the scholars’had not made her the butt of ridicule. This she strenuously resents, and in her unhnpny, lonesome condition, she listens to the flattery of a travelling street faker, who would have succeeded in taking her away with him had not the school teacher, who saw in her a diamond in the rough, prevented it. The principal part is played by Miss Dorothy Nicholson, the fascinating American picture actress, who is so popular with local natrons.
