Late on Monday evening the residence of Mr. E, V. Remnant, on the Waingongoro Road, was totally destroyed by lire. When the outbreak was discovered it was too late to save any of the contents of the house. The Stratford Fire Brigade received a message on Monday night that there was a fire on the Pembroke Road, and went out as far as the borough boundary, but as the glare, as seen from there, indicated that the lire was a long distance away, the brigade returned. THE KING’S CINEMA THEATRE, TO-NIGHT. “MIDSUMMER MADNESS.” Civilisation is a veneer at the best. There are moments of madness when honor, friendship and love are swept aside, and quite civilised people become creatures of blind impulse and passion. It was such a moment that caught a woman striving for romance, and a man infatuated with her beauty. In the warm moonlight of a midsummer midnight they forgot they were married —to another man and another woman—and in each other’s arms . AU of which goes to show why William de Mille called his latest and* greatest Paramount super-production “Midsummer Madness,” and why screen fans who see it are getting the thrill of a lifetime. “Midsummer Madness” will be screened at the King’s Theatre to-night and to-morrow night. The box plan, is now open at the heatre office. Ibe prices are: D.C. 2s, stalls Is (id (plus taxi.
