Two names well-known ir. the land of riction are credited with the authorship ,f this sp'.endid 'ltagraph release. They are Dr. Cyrus T. Hrady and I-Mward leple. and the result is a ni"t promisir.i: photoplay. The story deals with t i adventures of a young man nied on a Texas ranch, who impersonates an Knglish lord and wins the love of an American girl. The complications :nolve the hero in an exciting robbery, from which his name is cleared by the cleverness of the girl he loves. The co-stars are seen to excellent advantage in this story, w hich is of a liuhter vein than some of their past successes. , For Monday and Tuesday Hol-

trodueing a happily w edded young couple held aloof from the carefree

whirl by their gentle idealism, epitomized in their charming concep tion of youth, love and honor. Into this oasis among soul affinities ami seekers after new' thought, there enters, in the form of men and women of their acquaintance. and strangely odd cults, one who decriefaithful love and predicts that th two trembling at the world (! probDi-'s will in time "betray each ether."

"ON TKTAL" IN PICTUllKS. a picturization of Cohan and Harris stage success of a couple seasons ago. will be shown at the Oliver theater for five days starting on Oct. 17. This piece is weli remembered for the original way in which it was presented on the stage, what would naturally be the last scenes, the trial being given first and the succeeding scenes being in reality "cut backs." It was one of the most interesting offerings of the season and as a picture. It la said to be equally Interesting.

AT THE OLIVER

"MISS SPIlIXfJTI.MIl" j An eventful theatrical offerinc; will ; be presented at the Oliver theater on Oct. I.", when Klam ami Frlanger's most important musical comedy priduction of last season. '.Miss Springtime," will be the at- I traction. J "Miss Springtime," the one mu-' sieal comedy that ran throughout

the entire theatrical year in New York, will bo seen with a cast, the names of which are a guarantee for

its excellence, and with a prouction. scenically and from a costumic j point of vl?w, elaborate and hand-i fconie. Al?o there vill be every de

tail of perfection and beauty that characterized the production during Its extensive runs in New York and Hoston. Guy Ivolton contributed the 'Springtime" book anil I S. Wodshonse the lyrics. The stage direction is that of the experienced Julian Mitchell and Herbert Cresham. The fccenery is all by Joseph I'rban. a creatle painter of daring originality und poetic im .glnation. The first two sets of the musical

comoily are laid in a small Kuropean

village during the gayetles of "(Mil Home wpk," which a resourceful newspaperman has undertaken to boon through up-to-date American methods. The third act reveals the tage of a continental opera house and is a massive and magniMeent illustration of Mr. I'rban's creative art. The story of Mended sentiment, youthful romance and crisp, compelling humor, has to do with a Krct village girl's adoration of a

famous operatic baritone. it is or 1
