PERMANENT PICTURES.

Tho Empire Theatre was again well attended last evening, -when "Home, Sweet Homo" was screened for tile last time. To-night .there will be a complete change of programme, including two star features. The first is a Lubin .story of an artist who finds a beautiful girl, the daughter of a deaf and dumb lock-keeper, and takes her for a model for his picture of Tennyson's lily maid Elaine. The picture is painted^ and the Kfcory is repeated, for the girl dies heartbroken because her leve went to the young artist. And so Tennyson's other picture is carried out, and "The dead steered by the dumb, went upward on the flood." The other story is a, Kalem drama, "The Dancer." A classic dance-girl marries a millionaire, but in this case riches do 'not bring happiness. The supporting programme includes a Keystone comedy, "Killing Horace." fie latest number of the Australian Gazette and several scenic and interest films. COUNTRY TOUR.
