To those photoplay patrons that en-
JOY seeing justice handed out to the
deserving, Ben Blair" at the Spencer
Square tomorrow and Thursday, will
be rare treat. Ben Blair never for
got the scene of his mothers death. He
could see all the brutal details bv
merely closing his eyes. His puny
strength was of no avail then, but
now that he is full grown he longs to
meet Tom Blair and square accounts.
Not only for this crime but for the
other things that were as deep an in
jury. The time comes quicker than
he anticipates. Tom Blair, the rustler,
being drawn back to the scene of his
wrongdoing is Unexpectedly caught
with a lame horse. He steals horse
and in making his getaway deliberate
ly kills Rankin, Ben's benefactor.
Ben on being informed of it feels that
his chance to settle all has come.
Alone he pursues and overtakes the
outlaw. OF what he did with the cap
tive, and of his many other adven-
lures this stirring story filled with
the action and vigor of the cattle coun-
try tells in an enhancing manner.
