1.-THE Captain of the Gray-Horse
Troop"

One Of the best pictures ever pro-
duced by Vitagraph is '"The Captain
of the Gray-Horse Troop" featuring
Edith Storey and Antonio Moreno,
which the Grand will show next Fri
day. The production is unqualitiedly
recommended. 1t is clean, whole
some, stirring and sympathy-compell-
ing, and contains considerable
drama. Director and players have
caught the spirit of the story and
what lies beneath the words, and
have struck the deep chord of pathos
that is ever playing on the heart
strings of the fast vanishing race of
red men, WHO, herded on to a reserva-
ton, live only in the past and in the
hope that they will be allowed to die
peacefully where their forefathers
ruled. The story is not "Wild
West" Indian story, as we have come
to know them. 1t is not blood and
thunder stuff in that sense of the
word Primarily it is a story of the
moral and physical courage of an
army captain who is in sympathy with
the Indians and who replaces as agent
at reservation a cheating relative
of a senator. He is forced to fight
against the cattle interest and cattle
men, and against the father Of the
girl he learns to love.

Hands Upi"

Glands Up" vivid Triangle play
starring Wilfred Lucas, which will be
exhibited at the Gem today, is an ex-
citing story along new lines. Lucas
appears as railroad president, who
years before had been notorious out
law. With his daughter he is making
tour of inspection over the railway
system when their train is held up by
bandits, the leader of whom is be-
witched by the presidents pretty
daughter. She is thrilled by the ex-
citing situation and insists upon ex-
changing rings with him. Later they
meet in New York and recognize one
another by these rings.
The girls father sees the boys ring
and recognizes it as one which he gave
a woman years before. Believing the
boy is his son, he opposes the match
between his daughter and the strange
young man, who has introduced him
self under an assumed name. The
young couple thereupon decide to
elope, but the girl is rescued from the
illicit gang by her father, who draws

"The Primrose Ring

A whimsical story dealing with
fairies, knights and elves is told in
'The Primrose Ring" which comes
to the Grand Wednesday. Mae Muir
ray plays the leading part, that of a
nurse in cnildren's hospital. AS she
herself was once crippled child, she
takes an unusual interest in them and,
in spite of the disapproval of the head
nurse and trustees, amuses the chill
dren with thrilling fairy stories of
COLLINS, elves, plumed knights ard
fairy glens.
The little nurse has fallen deeply in
love with the handsome young head
doctor of the hospital, and when he
forces her to stop amusing the chill
dren with her wonderful fairy tales
she promptly resigns. How matters
are finally Strengthened out and how
the primrose ring is woven about the
little nurse and the young doctor, and
the fairies go mad with joy, is pre-
scented in most novel and charming
fashion.

"The Soul of a Magdalen."

The Importance Of being true to
ones self is the lesson taught IN The
Soul Of a Magdalen," starring Nine.
Petrova, which will be seen at the
Grand Sunday. Heloise Broulette Is
girl who is struggling to earn her
own living. An invalid mother is de-
pendent upon her.
An operation upon the mother be-
comes a vital necessity. Heloise tries
to borrow money for it. She fails.
Then there comes into her life a
wealthy, unprincipled man. lie
tempts the girl at critical moment
and, to prolong the life of her moth
er, she sacrifices herself. But 1t is
sacrifice that proves useless, for the
mother, suddenly learning the truth
about her daughter, dies of grief.
From this point onward there IS a
complete change in the nature OF
Heloise Broulette. Putting the
wealthy man out of her life, she first
finds happiness in truth and slmpl1cl-
ty, and then in great love. But
again the rich man crosses her path:
He becomes engaged to the sister OF
the man she loves. To save the SIS
ter Heloise bares her own life, and as
result Of this supreme sacrltlce
ultimately gains peace Of mind and
happiness.

"Rlood VIII Tell"

The Sunday feature attraction at
the Gem will be BLOOD Will Tell"
with William Desmond in the leading
role and an unusually strong cast Of
supporting players. The story deals
with the life of Sampson Oakley Sd,
the youngest of a family of financial
giants, whose appreciation off the joy
of life is greater than his interest
in money-grubbing. He becomes en-
tangled in a college scrape and is ex-
PEELED because he refuses to inform on
his classmates. For this he is cast
loose on his own resources and, after
a season among the midnight jewellers
Of Broadway, finds himself with a
wife and no visible means of support.
Then the vigorous old blood of his
ancestors asserts itself. He becomes
machinist and finally, through his
mechanical skill, is able to retrieve
his fathers fortunes, much to the dis
comfture of the conspirators who had
planned to wreck the Oakley interests.

"The Price of Pride.

Carlyle Blackwell plays dual role
in 1.-The Price of PRIDE" which is on
the program for Thursday at the
Grand. The role consists of two
half-brothers, each unacquainted with
the others existence until they meet
in courtroom presided over by their
father, where one of the brothers is
about to be sentenced for a crime
committed by the other. The remark
able resemblance between the two
young men is the cause of the mis-
take. The author of this production
has written number of melodramatic
stage successes and knows how to
make his scenes full of acting posi-
bilities. The cast is ably selected.
June Elvidge plays the principal
feminine part, and wins sympathy for
a character difficult to impersonate.

Cholera Morbus.

This is painful and dangerous dis
ease. In almost every neighborhood
someone has died from it before medi-
cine could be obtained or a physician
summoned. The right way is to have
a bottle of Chamberlain's C6lic and
Diarrhoea Remedy in the house so as
to be prepared for it. Mrs. Charles
Enyeart, Huntington, Ind, writes:

The Common Law"

Truly remarkable production is
"The Common Law" seven-reel
perturbation of the noted novel by
Robert w. Chambers, which the
Grand announces as it's offering for
Tuesday.
The appeal of Clara Kimball Young
in this picture is irresistible, and she
is surrounded by an excellent cast.
# # the characters in Mr. Ghambers's
novel had walked out Of the pages of
his book they could scarcely have been
more true to type than they appear
on the screen. The seven reels are a
quite faithful INSTALLATION of the So
Geological plot, with the exception that
several of the more Objectionable
or what could have been made more
Observation-Disclosures are notice
able by their propriety.
Throughout the development of the
character of young girl of educa-
ton and refinement who is forced to
seek employment as an artists model,
Clara Kimball Young draws the spec
tator into state of sympathetic So
licitude for her. The story contains
dramatic situations which are inter-
preted to their fullest possibilities by
Miss Young, as Valerie West, artists
model, and Conway Tearles as Louis
Neville, the artist. A situation in
which Miss Young is called upon to
reach the highest degree of her abil-
ity occurs when Valerie, pure in heart,
sets a day upon which she tells Ne
vile she will come to him as his COM
mon law wife. In this scene Miss
Young is supreme. She compels the
sympathy of the spectator, especially
so when the spectator has followed
her through the previous action in
which the adopted daughter of Ne
ville's parents, who is also in love with
the artist, has extracted Valerie's
promise not to marry Neville because
it would ruin his career if he were to
marry his model. In fact, the role of
Valerie is a difficult one, which has
been handled by Miss Young in a
manner that proves she is an emotion
al actress of high calibre.

"Sacrihce.

Margaret Ellington, the distinguish
ed star Of the speaking stage, makes
her film debut in the gripping drama,
"Sacriice," which will be the Mon
day attraction at the Grand. Miss
Ellington is seen as the daughter of a
diplomat, and also as cabaret dane
er in a neighboring and hostile coun-
try. The girls, who are half-sisters,
become involved in the international
spying systems of their respective
countries. One of them is finally
caught and executed for betraying
military secrets, while the other is
reunited with her lover after many
dramatic adventures. The scenes of
the play are unusual in their beauty.
