Red Feather Photoplay of Four Weeks from J This Week WARREN KERRIGAN, in "The Beckoning Trail." A Romantic Drama of the East and West. Thirtieth Red Feather Production. Directed by Jack Conway. In the case of J. Warren in this big play the loss of his fortune was "good for what ailed him." And that he lost it by the "wine, woman and song" route only emphasized the fact that any change in J. Warren's glad young ways would be for the better. He thinks he is in love with Maude George, but in reality he is simply dazzled by the bright lights of the greatest little street in the world. After a particularly hilarious and expensive evening he gets a letter from his lawyer and learns that his tangible assets consist of some ancient mining stock in an undeveloped mine, youth, health and pluck. He goes West and finds that a squatter with a lovely daughter, Lois, is on his claim, and that Harry Carter, the big boss of the district, is trying to jump the claim and throw the old man and his daughter out. Warren helps the squatter work and defend the mine, but does not disclose his ownership. In the meantime Maude has been trying to lure Warren back to Broadway. Finally she comes West to try personal persuasion. Lois is in love with him and when Maude arrives she believes her love is in vain. Warren is lured by the "beckoning trail" and returns to New York. But it doesn't seem to be the same, and he finds his thoughts turning to another "beckoning trail," with Lois at the end of it. He returns to the mine and finds Carter has driven the old man away. He goes to Carter's office, where a gang of Carter's toughs are laying for him. Then and there is one of the greatest fights in moving pictures. If you don't think J. Warren Kerrigan can put up a good scrap, see this one. He licks six men single handed and wrecks the whole place. One of the best Red Feathers that ever floated from the home nest.
