EMPIRE

A gripping story of a man’s unavailing struggles to lead a normal and useful life after having served a term in prison is told in ‘ Invisible Stripes,’ which is at the Empire. The two major characters in the story are men of widely differing outlooks. When they are released from prison, one, knowing that it will only be a matter of time before he is again pounced upon by the law, cynically returns to his customary haunts, but the other, who has just completed his first gaol sentence; is determined to go straight. The stigma of a prison sentence clings to him, however. INDIAN THRILLS. A drama dealing with the sotting of North America’s Western plains is told in ‘ Gerommo,’ the next film to be presented at the Empire. Employing Preston Ellen Drew, Andy Devine, Gene Locknart, "William Henry, Chief Thunder Cloud, Ralph Morgan, Marjorie Gateson, Kitty Kelly, and hundreds of others, the story of the Apache Indian war lord has a “ chase ” in almost every reel. Indians chase a wagon train, a stage coach, an ammunition train, ranchers and settlers, and the soldiers in return chase the Indians.
