At THE GARRICK.

Current at the Garrick theatre IS
the production The Last Trail"
from Zane Grey's story Of the same
name. Like all OF the Grey stories
It has characters that call forth
the best that Is in one. Men and
women OF his tales are the charao-
ters who have made the wonderful
west wonderful. II Is TO them that
the credit Of its settlement Is due.
But this is a story OF the modern
west and It lacks not one BIT the
thrills and the excitement that
would be expected in a tale of forty
nine.
Clyde Cook IN his comedy, THE
Chauffeur" offers some speedy
laughs. This acrobatic laugh-mak-
er Is never still a moment and his
labor is the enjoyment OF the spec
tator.
The reel Who's Who" showing
the backs OF prominent business
men in this city. IS creating no little
excitement. There is a keen inter
est in establishing the identities Of
the men winning the prizes offered
for a correct answer.

Green Temptation" which the
Queen showed for the first time
yesterday.
Miss Compson portrays the versa
tile role Of a woman whose life
undergoes two big. vital transitions
She has three names in the picture

crooks in Paris; then the theatrical
dancer. the idol Of the French capi-

yelopments and the changes that
have taken place in the heart OF the
