AMUSEMENTS.
KING'S AND STRAND. Heralded as the most beautiful woman in America, Katherine MacDonald makes her New Zealand debut in Mrs. Baillic Reynolds' famous story of sensational scandal and Notorious Miss Lisle." A better vehicle for the beauty and talent oi'. the star could not have been found. In the role of "the persecuted heroine, Gaendr Lisley who flees to Brittany to avoid the pointing finger of scorn after tha publicity of a divorce case, with which she really had no connection, she rises to great heights of dramatic fervour, and her unquestioned beauty excites for her the greatest sympathy. She has "the gift" to a marked degree, and this artistic production exploits her talents to the best possible advantage There is also a clever 2-reel monkey comedy entitled "The Big Show" in which the almost human "Humanzee" is featured. The programme . will be screened to-night only.
