ROUND THE PICTURE SHOWS,
QUEEN’S THEATRE. No more exciting drama has been pictorially told than that heading the programme at Queen’s, Theatre on Monday, under the title of “Chivalry Outlived.” Set in the West, the story is full of romance and adventure and deals with life in a digger’s camp. The daughter of the mineowner is secretly in love with a young man, Ramirez, and as the result of his chivalrous act to save the reputation of the girl he loves, he is condemned to death. He escapes, but falls into a robbers’ camp, is hounded down through the machinations of a villain, and both he and his love go through enough thrills to please the most veracious melodramite. But all ends happily to the huge enjoyment of the audience that have been feasting on the unravelment. Good support was accorded by “Looking for Trouble,” “Her Father’s Choice,” “Marriage of Convenience,” and a novelty dance executed by Phyllis Dare and George Grossmith. One of the best programmes yet given, was the verdict.
