THE KINEMATOGRAPH.

] Ti.er.; was a crowded house in the Odd* f«ilowß' Hull hist evening on the occasion of the exhibition 01 the Kinematograph pic. tures secured by the Christchurch syndi« cate who imported Lhe Record Reign view* for exhibition throughout this colony. The syndicate came to the very sensible and businesslike conclusion that, if they were to enter upon the Venture at alt, though they could not as mortals command success they could at least deserve it, and to deserve sue* cess they must possess themselves of the best in the way of pictures that was to be procured. This tbey did, and they are therefore able to put before their patrons many samples of the really best that Edison's marvellous invention oan do. As a conee i sequence, they held their large audience not ! only amused but delighted from the first living picture thrown on the screen to the last. The first portion of the programme comprised a succession of really excellent pictures, all shown with wonderful clearness. There were too many shown for detailed notice, but a few may be mentioned. One in particular showed how excellently the kinematograph can do its work. This was a charge of Russian cavalry. Tne reviewing officers were first seen wait* ing for the squadron, which was an indistinct and hazy line in the distance. Gradually the hazy line began to manifest itself, and then the spectators could see it take the form of a troop of cavalry- On it came, and still on, until one fanoied that in a few seconds the horses would become life size and charge into the crowd" before the stage. 'At a gallop they came on, bat they did not keep even the fairly even line of a colonial mounted troop, and when " halt" was given, though the halt was instanter, they had more dressing to do than our own C.V.C. would have required uuder the same circumstances. If the charge, as shown last night, is a sample of Russian cavalry excellence, tben there need be no hesitation in saying that, though, likejapostage stamp, the men can "stick on," they cannot compare with the cavalry troops of 'the British empire, which were shown in large numbers at a later period of the evening. The arrival of the French steam packet at Dover was another magnificent picture; so was the sea cave at Cornwall with the waves dashing in regular order and true to nature; so also was the scene in a London swimming bath, with the divers taking high headers, and splashing the spray everywhere—a living picture that was as true to life as any shown; so too was the Spanish bullfight with matadores, etc., baiting the bull, and all the brutal incidents shown which are characteristic of this sort of entertainment, not very entertaining to Britons, and serrainly not very edifying to Christian peop'e; the Mexican cowboys lassooiug wild jattle was a similar picture, and was very jlear and dißtincc; the children at a fete lancing a polka was a charming little picture; the arrival of the train at Epsom carrying passengers to witness the running of the Derby was another good thing; a five minutes slice from a day on the Tower Bridge was another ; ao uncommonly fine one, showing " Faust" as put on the stage in a Parisian opera house, caught on at once, and tept the audience highly amused, the rapid ihauges of the characters being wonderfully i.veil managed ; Lottie Collins in her serpen cine dance was the last of the series, and this waß colored to show the rainbow effects )f the urtss of the daasiuse in her wonderful ;y rations. Thnr*j ware others, of course, hut space forbidß further notice, though wine of them were very funny. An interval followed, and after Miss Richardson had given a song and dance, and Mr Frank Morris an exhibition ot grotesque roller skating, the Record Reign pictures were shown. They were loudly applauded by the audience, as one after another scene was shown from the famous procession on the ureat celebration day in Loudon of Her Majesty's Diamond Jubilee. The carriages if Her Majesty and the Princes and Princesses were shown with all their mili tary attendants passing points that gave the photographer an opportunity of getting in good work- The bands of the leading savalry regiments were shown to the life, tne bluejacketß' with their nuns, the Life Guards (the finest cavalry in the world), the Royal Horse Artillery with their guns, etc., the British and foreign Princes and Ambassadors, the Colonial Premiers and the Colonial troops, Mr Seddon's carriage and the New Zealand contingent being loudly cheered. When Her Majesty's carriage was shown it was halted to allow the audience to see their Queen, and occasion was taken to give a lusty and hearty voice to " God save tha Queen," everybody taking part in it. The Record Reign pictures were a charming exhibition, and when the gentleman describing the pictures said it was the intention of the management to revisit Ashburton at an early date, though the date was not yet fixed, the announcement was received with applause so hearty as to indicate that on the occasion of a second visit a crowded house will welcome the exhibition. Holloway's Ointment and Pills—Ab scesses, Erysipelas, Piles— Unvaryingsucoees attend these who treat these diseases according to the simple printed direction wrapped around each pot or box. Tbey are invalu able to the young and timid, whose baahful ness sometimes endangers life- Though ap parently local, diseases of this nature are essentially blood diseases, but a little atten tion, moderate perseverance, and trifling ex pense will enable the most diffident to conduct any case to a happy issue without exposing secret infirmities to anyone. The Ointment checks the local inflammation and alleviates the throbbing pains- These directions a'so clearly point out when and how Holloway's Pills are to be taken, that their purifying and regulating powers may assist by adjusting and strengthening the constitution.
