The management of His Majesty's Theatre must expect big business to-night owing to the drawing powers of the line programme to be screened. “The Haiders" is a Western drama, a story of life in the wilds of the Kentucky Mountains, where a gang of moonlighters are engaged in working an illicit whisky still. The play, which occupies over half an hour in the- enactment, is brimful of exciting incidents. Mary'Evans, daughter of the'head'of the gang, is to marry Jack Keane, one of the moonlighters. The latter has a dangerous rival in Hill 'Gale who, to be even with Keane, turns informer, and betrays the moonlighters. The fight between the gang ami the representatives of the law is most exciting. Hale, who is wounded, takes refuge in Marys house. The revenue officers-ap-proach the; house. Then Mary tells Gala it is the gang corning. Gale escapes. Mary then tells the revenue officers that Gale is one of the moonlighters escaping. They follow him and he is shot down. What tlie Crystal Told" is another line 1000 ft drama that could easily be classed as a star 'in itself. ‘ The story is of a beautiful girl’s frailty and a woman's revenge.
