The third instalment OF Giving pic
lures" offe.ed to New Workers was pre-
S nted at the Imperial Music Hall last
night to an Invited audience. The tab
lcHuX were on the lines already made
familiar by .iorr Kilyani at the Garden
Theatre and Mr. HammcrstcIn at
kocter &c Balls. but there wasn't as
much positive nudity In them as there
has been In the others. and neither was
there so much art In the anatomical rev.
clation1.
one would expect that n set OF I'm
perial living pictures would be suin-
ciently shocking at some point or other
to rouse an Imperial audience, but there
Is nothing in the exposition of the fc-
male form, as II Is exposed at the I'm
periGl, to shock PnybOdy. The figures
are carefully shown, with one excep-
ton. and that Is The Slave Dealer"
where "A girl who must be under treat
ment for obesity reCklcSsly exhibits her
avulrdupois Strange to say, the hit OF
the evening was made by a picture that
had no women in II. 1t was II battle
piece, entitled "comrade." in which Il
young officer, with wounded compan-
lon on one arm, was waving his sword
In detensory defiance of the enemy. The
suggested action was spirited. The
whole atmosphere was martial and full
of the Inspiration of war. 1t ntoned for
all the shortcomings of the other pic
lures, and was not only received vOcif-
crously, but awoke an enthusiasm that
lasted fully five minutes, and was not
satisfied until the tableau was presented
a second time. 1t is by all odds the best
living picture ever seen in New York.
