Local Theatrical Favorites Pose for
Moving Pictures.

There is a moving picture of more
than passing interest being shown this
week at the Elite theatre. called THE
Cowboys Baby" inasmuch as the
principal characters in the pictures
were posed for by several theatrical
people we'll and favorably known to
Salt Lake theatre-goers. Patrons of
the Grand theatre pleasantly remem-
her Miss Grace cambridge. leading
lady Of the Theodore Torch company
during the twelve weeks stock engage
ment of that organization at the Grand
this spring. and probably no leading
lady who has appeared before Salt
Lake theatre-goers in years as firmly
established herself a favorite as did
Miss cambridge. both by her pleasing
personality and her really clever per-
formances. In 1.-THE Cowboys Baby"
the above mentioned picture, Miss
cambridge is seen as the sweetheart
of the particular cowboy around
whom the story of the picture is woven.
a5p& her clever acting in the picture is
q of the features of the same. There
ore several other membrs of the late
stock organization of the Grand who are
also prominent In this picture, among
them being r. E. Rutledge. Mr.. Car
roll. Mr.. Mcfarland and Mr.. and Mrs.
George Graves-Mr. Graves appearing
as the Mexican villain or bad man.
The picture is one of the best ever
shown in Salt Lake. and the fact that
so many local theatrical favorites are
seen during the action of the same
gives it an added interest. The picture
is taken near Eldorado Springs, Colo.
and is a beautiful scenic production
and Manager Max Florence of the
Elite is to be congratulated upon secur-
ing the same. The same people are
also posing for several new pictures
which Mr.. Florence will show in the
n ATt few weeks, and among them be-
inf-"A Fighting Chance" THE Mad
Minor" THE Ranchman's Love" and
THE Roundup of Cattle"
