Tomorrow Night

THE Cowboy and the Lady with
S. Miller Kent, which comes t. the
Grand tomorrow evening is the latest
release Of the Metro Pictures cor
poration, and the most rscent work OF
the B. A. Role company.
"The Cowboy and the Lady" pic
turized by J. w. Noble from the play
OF the same name by Clyde Fitch, is
an extraordinary picture in many
ways. The contract between Role
and the Fitch estate, compelled NJ.
Ro1fe to stage the piece in the, locale
mentioned by the author and in order
TO carry out the contract, it was
necessary to travel over a thousand
miles, with a caravan of ten wagons,
eighty people and sufficient material
to make a five part picture. Helen
