Because Of this rcGcence members OF the BLACK

DRAMATIC INCIDENT OF
NORTHWEST is WOVEN
IN "BRING HIM IN

II. II. Van Loan, the we'll known
author and short story writer, after
a trip to Canada and the great
north woods, incorporated many of
his adventures into the Earle Will
Jams picture, Bring Him In"
which is being repeated today for
the last time at the Lyric theater.
To get local color, Mr.. Van Loan
visited a dance hall in Claire. The
place was filled with typical mot
ley gathering of miners, prospect
ors. Indians, and dancing girls.
There he heard q story which is
used as an incident in Bring Him
In" A pretty little Indian girl was
trying to induce her drunken father
to go home with her and number
of roughneck hangers-on were try
ing to prevent 1t. A man rushed
forward to intervene when a shout
of warning from the crowd checked
him. Turning. he saw the brilliant
scarlet uniform of the famous
Northwest Mounted Police flashing
In the doorway. The officer rush

CATTLE WAR ON THE
WESTERN PLAINS FURNISH
THEME FOR "BLACK SHEEP

Things begin to happen in the
very first scene of BLACK Sheep"
which opened at the "B" theater
yesterday nd which is being re-
peated today.
Even before you are comfortably
seated you will find yourself neck
deep in interest in this dynamic
drama of one of the most unusual
wars ever staged in this or any
other country. 1t is a picture based
upon the war between the cattle
men and the sheepherders and 1t
was no gentlemen's war either.
The hotbed of these hostilities
was in wyoming, the locale of this
picture, and before it ended many
lives were lost and thousands of
dollars worth of sheep and cattle
were destroyed.
Neal Hart is the star of this pro-
duction, which excels any of his
previous efforts both in histronic
and artistic effects. He is support
ed by an exceptionally clever cast,
which makes this one of the best
western productions ever shown at
the "B" theater.
The lover of out-of-door drama,
