Reginald Gardiner, featured member of the cast, shows him the bad news spread In "Florian" ri Ii fi Every now and then there comes to the screen a picture so great, so gripping in theme, that it writes a new page in screen history such a picture opens for today and tomorrow only at the New Riallo theater. It is "Florian," starring Robert. Young and a beautiful white stallion from the Austrian Lip piba stud farm, who plays the title role. The picture is a cavalcade of the pomp of Aus tria and the fall of the empire. Amid this cavalcade of thrills, spectacle and turmoil is told the love ?ory of a boy and a girl, she a duchess, he a groom in the stable, tending Florian, the emperor's magnificent stallion, which they both love. Their romance is forbidden by their difference of station but the World war sweeps this away and they travel half-way around the world in search of Florian. i.4i.i.ii.V,..... .VWa, The Amazing Story of the Emperor's Stallion.
