AMUSEMENTS.
OPERA HOUSE. The popularity of living pictures was evidenced last evening at the Opera House, when the Royal Wide World Pictures drew an audience that filled every part of the house. There was a complete change of programme, in which a dramatic film, entitled "The Squaw Man's Daughter," was markedly well reseived. The moat attractive film was one which showed the orphan boys of Reedham at fancy marching and. evolutions in their exercise yard. The film had been taken in bright sunlight, and the evolutions', which ,were remarkable, and almost kaleidoscopic in their movements, were seen to the best advantage. A number of humorous films were shown, one entitled " A Dynamite Duel," being especially funny. The programme will be repeated' this evening.
