Hart picture, that is, it has thrills, colorful . atmosphere and splendid character delineation. Mr. Hart is cast as "Bowie" Blake, a brusque, callous-souled faro dealer in a western town, whose destiny is shaped the moment Tarleton, a mon omaniac artist, and his patient wife arrive at the place. Tarleton, who has long been looking for a suitable model for his masterpiece, "Lucifer, Son of the Morning," recognizes in Blake the ideal subject he has been seeking. Blake angrily refuses to humor the artist, but the lattcr's wife, realizing that disappointment means her hus band's death, pleads with Blake, her goodness and purity affecting him like magic. Soon after'" "Bowie" Blake has begun to pose, the doctor decrees that Tarleton, to preserve his life, must move to a higher altitude. Tho "bad man," who has begun to feel strange emotions since his as sociation with the first good woman come into his life, agrees to move al so, and the odd triangle departs for the mountains. But Blake finally loses control of himself and insults Naomi. Stung at her scathing denunciation and morti fied at his own weakness, he sorrow fully "hits the trail," leaving the woman alone with her husband in the mountain cabin. A solitary ride through the night, however, serves to readjust his thoughts, and realizing the peril of Naomi, left with no one but her. feeble-minded husband, turns about, resolved to take his medicine. Blake arrives at the cabin just ai two desperadoes are casting lotSj for the possession of Naomi. They nave al ready shot the unfortunate artist and I slashed his masterpiece. Blake makes short work of the two and carries the senseless woman to a cave in the mountains. Fright having affected her mind, Naomi is like a child, remembering none of the past. But an accident finally restores her memory, at which time Blake, forgetting his good reso lutions, immediately claims tho girl as his own. Then Nnomi exerts her pure womanly influence and thereby helps the man in the towering battle which he suddenly realizes must be fought. Having conquered his passion, Blake LA GRANDE TO BE JUNGLE TOWN WHEN AL G. BARNES' BIG CIRCUS ARRIVES More Than 1000 Educated Animals in Circus Stunts. Imagine over 1000 animals 'n one assemblage. Imagine' looking into the cold, cruel basilisk eyes of hun dreds of the jungle's richest treas ures. Imagine youself face to face with these hundreds of lions, tigers, leopards and others of tho man-eating beasts.
