CORONATION PICTURES. I AT WHITELEY HALL. \ Last night Mr. Saunders .received Hie following wire from John' Fuller anrt Sons: —"Your Coronation film with others over-carried to Wellington l>y post office. See address oil parcel. No fault of ours." This meant that the Coronation pictures were not shown last evening, to the regret of a crowded house of patrons, who, h r.vever, had not been misled, as there wan some doubt as to the film arriving, and due publicity was given. The film is on to-night's mail train, and will .be shown in the second half of the programme. The film is' the longest of the subject imported into New Zealand. It goes without wiving that there will be a big crowd at the Whiteley Hall to-night to witness this unique and interesting picture, which, it may be mentioned, was especially imported by Mr. Saunders at great cost and is his absolute property. In order to give everyone in the town and district an opportunity of seeing it, Mr. Saunders has decided, to give an all-day show to-morrow, commencing at twelve o'clock. In the evening the full programme will be given, with this star of stars film. "Trooping the Color®," a splendid picture that captured "the house last evening, will precede it. "Winter Flowers," a vvpjiderliil example of color cinematography, shown last evening, will also be screened, together with the other pictures that made last evening's show so enjoyable and successful. The price at the afternoon Coronation show will be the nimble sixpence, gallery and downstairs alike, and the ordinary prices, Is and f>d, will obtain in the evening.
