Court" produced as a special film by
William Fox, comes to the Princess
theatre on Monday and Tuesday. first

people who lived on the Mississippi river.
and it was fitting that he Should choose

Pilots of the river boats. in aking

And that is the name by which the
world knows Observation-Disclosures.
