5Elliant Biograph Scenic Spectacle.
 On the programme at the Breed to- dRg is the very unusual and delightful Biograph western drama entitled The Goddess of Sagebrush Gulch. This deals with the love affair of a pretty girl. populRrly known in her mountain home territory as the goddess, with whom Blue Grass Pete is madly in lov2. he having saved her life in the first scenes of the drama. The god oess' sister arrives from the city and completely wins over her sisters lover, the goddess becoming first heartbroken, then vengeful. Pete gives his savings to the now sweetheart for safe keep ing. but a false friend plans to steal tEsm and partially succeeds. leaving 1he goddess sister captive in the 6,ra- ing cabin on the mountainside. The sister would have perished in the flames. for she was piniOned to a post in the cabin, with the flames licking ell about her. when the fOrgiving sis ter comes to her rescue, assisted by the entire mining population. This picture is suffused with all the richness of California scenery, being photograph ed almost wholly upon the top of one Of the highest mountains in the state.
 Another picture that makes a bid for popular favor is the immense pro- 6uction representing the story of the ten months siege of 9 famous old town in France The natives are starving, and finally the governor sends a mes senger 10 the king Of France urging him to save them from their peril This the king agrees to do, but he and his army are routed and the city IS ultimately surrendered to the English.
