REX THEATRE Montgomery & Warner, Props. X JLs Nhjr ■ JtraL JL “WHEN MEN WOULD KILL” In Three Parts Briefly told, ths story concerns the long standing warfare between the Charltons and Redferns. Grace Chariton, a general favorite with everybody, is sent to New York to study voice under the leading teachers of the metropolis. During her rise to fame, and her subsequent successful appearance in grand opera, Grace never forgets the lion-hearted Jim Redfern, who has completely won her by hie primitive wooing. Much aS she loves Jim she does not hesitate to take sides with her family against him when the feud breaks out anew. ' Grace receives a telegram that her father has been Wounded, and hastens to her humble home to direct the fight for revenge waged by her brothers against the Redferns. Later, Grace receives a bullet in her shoulder that was intended for her father. The next night, the Carltons home takes fire, and they are rescued with great difficulty by old man Redfern and his sons. Jim Redfern's heroism in rescuing Grace, has brought the feud to an end, and the story closes with the marriage of Grace and Jim, and the pact of friendship sealed forever between the families of Charlton and Redfern. This human Interest story introduces some striking innovations in the way of nature scenes. The sugar mill camp where the feudists take refuge, is an example. "When Men Would Kill" makes a powerful appeal to your sense of justice and fair play, and provides all the excitement that you demand of a feature production.
