The famous racing play, "His Last Dollar," with David Hlgglna In the role origlnaUy created by him. Is the most thrilling drama of Its type ever produced In America. The success of the original pro duction was so decisive and notable that the title of the play has become a by-word In racing circles, and for many years a "David Higglns" has been commonly accepted as representing the lust dollar In one's possession. In the film production David Higglns' unusual characterization of Joe Draxton, the millionaire ex-jockey, surpasses his Impersonation In the stage version, and many scenes. Including the exciting situations at the Mock Exchange, and the great race Itself, that were only described In the play, are vividly depicted In the film adaption. In all these, Mr. Higglns' versatility Is revealed to a marked degree, and his talents as actor and horseman are shown unhampered by the Inevitable limitations of a stage production. Joe Braxton, first a little newsle of the slums, goes South, learns to handle horses, becomes a noted jockey, then drifts West and for years Is a cowboy, Investing his earnings In cattle, lands, and finally mines, until he is a millionaire. Coming East, the self-made man determines to enjoy a life of ease and forget the hardships of his youth. Still unmarried, he becomes the catch of the social season, and Is eventually entrapped Into an engagement with Viola Grayson, a young beauty whose mercenary mother urges her Into the affair with Braxton, who admires, but does not love, the young woman. Vi ola herself Is In love with Tom LI nson, a friend of Braxton s, who is by no means the blg-souled, open hearted man that Braxton Is. Llnson Is a schemer, who has planned to ruin Braxton and enrich himself with his friend's fortune. Llnson goes South, with a letter of Introduction from Braxton to an old Southern Colonel, who had formerly befriended the ex-Jockey. In the South Llnson wins and woos Eleanor Downs, the Colonel's young and pretty daughter, and being ordered from the house by the Col onel. Linson persuades the unsophisticated girl to elope with him. In vain. Llnson returns to New York and Inveigles Braxton Into a heavy stock speculation. In which ho hopes to fleece his friend. Meanwhile old Col. Downs, losing money and health, sends Eleanor East to run their horse, "Mongrel," in the great Futurity Race. Eleanor and Braxton meet, and In that meeting Braxton learns the differ ence between true love and false, while Eleanor, too, loses her heart Khe discovers the plot to ruin Praxton, and learns that Viola Is false to him. Though Llnson threatens to ruin her reputntlon with the story of their proposed elopement, she does reveal the truth to Braxton, who believes Eleanor, Vlefles Viola and Llnson. and rushes to the stock exchange to fight for his tottering fortune. The ex change closes In time to save him from being quite wiped out, and he knows that the afternoon's Fu turity F.ace will make or break him. for ho has placed all he did not put Into the Wall f-'treet venture on Eleanor's hors Mongrel." which is to run against Pompadour, the favorite, Llnson's horse. The great race Itself, the rascally tricks of Linson, the dramatic hand to hand fight between the rival jock eys, their magnificent riding, the attempted fouling of "Mongrel," and the splendid triumph of Braxton and Eleanor over their enemies. Is vividly shown In one of the greatest and most realistic race-track scenes ever portrayed before the camera. At Its close, Eleanor and Braxton decide to finish life's race together, and the drama ends happily. MARY PICKFORD r who (;cts a laiigkk salary tiiax ouh president in "Behind the Scenes" THE NOTED PLAY OF THEATRICAL LIFE. Mary Pick ford gives a pathetic charm and winsome grace to the dainty little actress who Is the hero ine of "Behind the Scenes" the charming drama of theatrical life by Margaret Mayo, authoress of the famous farce, "Baby Mine," and the current comedy success, "Twin Beds." As Dolly Lane, Mary Pick ford stirs the pulse and grips the heart, and gives one of the best screen performances of her career. Dolly Lane Is a poor and pretty little musical comedy soubrette, rehearsing and playing day and night, living In poor lodgings quietly and meagrely, and devoted to her work and stage a mb.lt Ion. One night, In the final scene of the play, she and her comrades throw confetti into the audience, nearly blinding a young man who sits In one of the front rows of the orchestra. Dolly's sincere concern over the acci dent amply atones for it, and the young man, Steve Hunter, Induces his friend, a wealthy young chap, to take him behind the scenes after the performance. There he and Dolly meet, and their romance begins. Though not a devotee of the theatre himself, Steve Is not long In falling In love with little Dolly, and one night they are made man and wife. One day Steve receives word that an old uncle In the West Is dying and that he Is to come to htm Immediately. Steve goes, and Dolly now gives all her heart and energy to her work, succeeding so well that when ah accident happens one day at rehearsal to the leading woman, Dolly Is given that exalted . position and told to be ready that night. She hurries home, her heart full with the success so near at hand, to find Steve has returned from the West, the heir to his dead uncle's great wheat farm. She hears Steve's news, hardly conscious of what It means, and then quickly tells htm of her own good fortune; but Instead of congratulating her, Steve tells her she will have to abandon her' position on the stage and go West with him. After a terrific struggle between ambition and love, Dolly yields, sur renders her career and leaves all behind her to go West. But she soon wearies of the quiet farm and Steve's seeming neglect of her for his work, and one day, she returns to the city. There she finds a wealthy man only too ready to back her as a star In a new play. Trying to forget 8teve, she throws her whole soul Into her ambition, and the new play and star become the sensation of the theatrical season. But success without Steve to share It turns to ashes In her grasp, and when that night the wealthy producer. of the play comes to her dressing- room,' locks the door and demands the price of her triumph, she for the first time realizes the nearness of the abyss and its yawning terrors. As she des perately plays for time she hears Steve's voice. The manager hastily gives up the key, and she admits Steve while the other conceals himself. Steve, however, learns of his presence In the room, pulls him from his hiding place, and, with one glance of scorn at Dolly, leaves without hearing her explanation. Despairing and disillusioned, Dolly resigns from the cast and takes the next train for the West In the golden harvest field, on a sunshiny day, she again meets Steve and tells him all, and as his forgiving arms , embrace her the tawdry glitter of the tinselled past Is forgotten, and the real drama of life unfolds be fore them.
