POLLARD’S PICTURES. A SPECIAL HAMPTON FEATURE TO-NIGHT. A beautiful love story, a deep intrigue, and a strange, glamorous eolorfnl setting found in New York by delving into the mysterious Chinese underworld, combine themselves in “The Money Changers,” a soul-stirring drama. It is a Mnmpton-Pfttke production written for the screen by Upton Sinclair, and showing at tin* Prin-

cess Theatre to-night. “The Money Changers” has been acclaimed to Ih> far more than a fascinating narrative of strange adventure come to life on tho shadow stage, ft is a photoplay with a sweeping, virile human appeal, ft is at once the sweetest love story ever told and a powerful, tense and thrilling drama enacted against a background strange and weird where incense mingles with poppy smoke. Its action is motivated I>v untold millions of dollars and the lure of women. “The Money Changers” is as remarkable for the assemblage of famous players'who compose the cast as for its smashing action and intense human drama.
