AMUSEMENTS.
HIS MAJESTY’S PICTURES. At last night’s change of pictures at Bernard’s, the programme submitted was of more than ordinary merit. The films are all*new, and for life-like thrilling stories, the great Nat Pinkerton detective drama, “Mystery of the Seven O’clock Express,” is certainly the best of its kind ever screened in Stratford. “Darby and Joan” is a very fine pathetic Lubin drama. The Topical Budget introduces some- of the world’s latest doings. A very impressive picture is that of Captain Scott’s Memorial Service attended by our Gracious King and thousands of his people at St. PauPs. Another fine film is that depicting Captain Scott’s only son, Httl© Peter,' at jilay quite unconscious of the terrible disaster which befel his hero father. The soenics and educational films are excellent indeed, whilst the comics really hurt. The management are fortunate in securing the big star film, “Good Queen Bess,” with Madame Sarah Bernhardt in the title role. This picture is pronounced to be the greatest work of cinematography ever attempted, and will be screened for one night only on Monday next. Beautifully colored illustrated songs will bo rendered every evening. The prices remain as usual.
