in four parts, a Famous Player at
| traction with William Faruum in the
title role, at the Grand. The story in
brief: David Corson. Quaker, posses

and Satan came also. He threy his

with a victorious spirit in command.
A grand lesson in this beautiful pic

the 5th installment of the Trey O’
Hearts, which will be shown Friday
