TWELVE MILITARY PONIES, groomed and caparisoned to the highest degree of perfection, performing a series of evolutions and maneuvers that are a revelation in animal training.

Her funny antics bring roars of laughter from young and old. She dearly loves a romp with the children at the daily receptions after matinees. Her rocking chair reposes are unique. "DIAMOND," the trotting-bred contortion horse, whose demonstration of animal intelligence and feats of agility surpass the imagination.

Polaire is the leading character. They have featured her particularly in this production and it is another world-beater. Mile. Polaire is delighted to be called the ugliest in the world. She wears a pearl ring in her nose. She says. "It is a fad I started two months ago in Paris, and when the American women try it, they, too, will wear them. The French actress has arrived here from Europe within the past two weeks, and when the steamer reached the pier she was weeping, being troubled about the loss of her pet pig. One day, while she was holding the pig on deck, it jumped out of her arms into the sea. Around its neck was a collar studded with diamonds and rubies, but Mile. Polaire would not say whether she was crying for the pig or her jewels. An incomplete report published in a few trade journals tending to imply that the temporary injunction obtained by the Liebler Company against the film production of "In the Bishop's Carriage ' applies to every print o. this film, produced by the Famous Players Film Company, violates the spirit of the writ as in text and effect the injunction was only designed to prohibit the Famous Players Film Company from manufacturing, producing, exhibiting, or causing to be manufactured, produced or exhibited any films based on the subject during the pendency of the action, but is not intended to govern, and does in no manner restrict, the exhibition of the prints released before the issuance of the injunction. Thomas W. Ross, who has starred in the original production of "Checkers" and who made the hne "Gee, ain't it hell to be poor" a little more generally known than the national anthem, has been engaged by the All Star Feature Corporat'on to play the role he originally created for the photoplay production of "Checkers" soon to be made. This production will, of course, be made under the stage direction of Augustus Thomas, who acts as general director of productions for all the silent plays which are to be made by the All Star Feature Corporation. Other engagements made for the All Star production of "Checkers" are Katharine La Salle and William A. Williams. M:ss La Salle last season played opposite to Edmund Breese in "The Master Mind." Previously she was leading woman for Thomas W Ross in "The Only Son," and was seen as The Governess in "Shorty McCabe." Miss La Salle plavs Pert Barlow, opposite to Mr. Ross, in "Checkers." For leading juvenile Williar A. Williams has been engaged. Mr Williams was starred in "Quincv Adams Sawyer" for three years and starred himself in "The Lottery Man" for one year.
