EVERYBODYS’ PICTURES

“A FOCI, and ms MONEY —TO-NIGHT.

Scones in “ A Fool ami his Money,” the Erie Kenton-Columbian Production, which comes to the Princess Theatre to-night, range from an American hoarding house to a castle in old world Europe. The foreign atmosphere is authentic, ns lias been verified by many people who watch closely the technique of pieTuros. The castle exterior is most imposing, while the interiors portray the high ceilings and big fireplaces peculiar to Kuropeati architecture of the middle ages. The castle itself is an exasf repliesi of the old Von Elm stronghold on the Rhine, it having been reproduced from drawings and photographs brought from the original for that purpose. The picture was taken from the novel til the same name by George Barr McCutcheon. and features Madge Bellamy and \\ illiain Haines as the leads and supported by Stuart: Holmes and Alma Bennett with a host of other stars. What would you do if you wore handed three hundred thousand dollars? This boy bought himself a castle, and with it lie got a ghost and a lot of trouble. George Barr McGufcheon wrote a delightful romance about it. and the picture matches the story in every way. The latest in topieals and a good comedy complete a line display tonight.

On Friday Hoot Gibson appears in his latest Western drama ‘‘The Artzona Sweepstakes.”
