This plo- ture is being repeated this evening as it will easily stand up for two nights if not for several more. Feature a young gentleman who 1s utterly afraid of anything that be- longs to the family of quadrupeds known as horses. Place him in a po- aition where he is made a hero of a horseman by accident, and then force him by circumstance on the wildest horse of many stables, ‘The Hotten- tot,” and you have something of what Sam Harrington, played by the inimit- able Doug McLean {s up against. Madge Bellamy as Peggy Fairfax is an inspiration, however, for if the young man would win the heart of Pegsy it is} up to him to win the atecplechase.

The patron of the picture is able to see practically the entire race ag though he were riding along side of the entrants. The steeplechase has been prociatm- ed by many as the greatest race put on celluloid. After viewing the pie ture, good reason gor the judgment is seen Johnson, If. C. Giffin, ¢. M. Giffin, rg. — H.
