B. Warner, the, English actor famed for his "Alias Jimmy Valen tine" on the speaking- stage, will make his debut as a star of the screen Wed nesday and Thursday when he is pre upntpd hv Thomas H. Ince in a red- ! blooded f riangle-Kay Bee feature, en itited "The Raiders." Written by J. G. Hawks and direct ed by Charles Swickard, under the su pervision of Thomas H. Ince, the pro duction is said to be among the most likable of Ince's stories, and an es pecially strong vehicle for the intro duction of Warner to the photoplay world. . Warner plays the part of Scott Wells, a junior clerk in a New York , brokerage firm, whose' daring, com bined with the deft handling of a col ;ossal business deal, forms the basis I of the narrative. The role is one that fits the actor's talents admirably. The scenes are laid in New York City and the Adirondack mountains, and the action moves with great swiftness. Many of the incidents in the tale occur in the New York Stock ; Exchange, and for the filming of I these an exact reproduction of the ex I change was constructed one of the (largest and most realistic sets ever built. Warner's leading woman is Dorothy Dalton, who already has been seen by Triangle patrons in "The Disciple" with William S. Hart. "Look Pa, How 'Gets-It Works!" ! Xiffc Your Corn Eight Off Never Fails.
