170 CLASS 8— Dramas 8054 Code SAKU The Return of Draw Egan Triangle Featuring William S. Hart, Robert McKim, Marguery Wilson and Louise Glaum Draw Egan is the head of a band of notorious outlaws, who are closely pursued by the sheriff and a large posse. Up hill and down vale, through stupendous mountain passes, ride the outlaws, hotly pursued. At a cabin in the mountains they make their last stand, and a terrific bombardment occurs. The bandits make their escape through a trapdoor. The cowardly member of the band, "Arizona Joe," sneaks out of the background, only to fall into the clutches of the posse. The band scatters and a little later we see Draw Egan alone maintaining his usual reputation for bravery in a saloon quarrel, where he is narrowly watched by Mr. Buckton, who is looking for a town marshal for the neighboring town of Yellow Dog. Next we see Draw Egan as the champion of the reform element in the town of Yellow Dog, maintaining law and order in the saloon and closing it on Sunday. He is a model town marshal, but much of the credit of his rule is due to his affection for Myrtle Buckton, the daughter of his sponsor. "Arizona Joe" escapes from the penitentiary, returns to the town, recognizes [he marshal as his former bandit chief and spurred to revenge by the Queen of the Dance Hall (Louise Glaum), who has been plainly snubbed by the marshal, he decides to "show him up" before the town. Of course, his friends in the Reform League are aghast at this new information, but the marshal, while admitting his identity and expressing his willingness to "give up" at sundown, expresses his intention of holding office long enough to make a prisoner of "Arizona Joe." Joe tries to shoot him from ambush, but fails and is victim of the marshal's unerring aim. After having a few hours to think it over, the Reform League decides that a live town marshal, even if he is an ex-bandit leader, is better than a dead one, or one returned to jail. Therefore, they retain him as marshal and pronounce him friend. The marshal's romance reaches a happy climax, in which we all rejoice. This is one of William S. Hart's best type of western pictures, and with due tolerance for the bar room and dance hall scenes as typical of a by-gone era, the average audience will heartily appreciate this subject. 1553 feet— on 4 reels Rental $3.00 8059 CodeSAKUR The Americano Triangle Featuring Douglas Fairbanks and Alma Rubens "Now," said the president of the mining company, "let your eye make a dotted line to the point in the map," placing his finger on Paragonia, Central America. Douglas Fairbanks fixed his concentrated gaze on the pink-colored, triangular section dotted with volcanoes and murmured, "It's far, far from Brooklyn and I will not go." The president tried to make Fairbanks accept his proposition. He offered him a good salary to go down to Paragonia and open the mines. But money had no charms as compared to Brooklyn, New York, with its Queensboro subway, its proximity to Coney Island, and its nice neat little haberdashery shops with their breezy Arrow collars, tailored suits and custom shoes. Just then Douglas saw Alma Rubens. She was playing the role of Senorita For maximum enjoyment
