AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODY® PICTURES. REX, THE WILD HORSE, TO-NIGHT. That remarkable equine screen star, Rex, who lias already displayed his talents in “ Wild Beauty,” ” Uoofbeats of Vengeance,” and other Universal production will appear on the screen again at the Princess Theatre to-night in his latest picture “ Wijti. Blood.” He is supported by Jack Perrin, Ethlyne Clair, and Nelson McDowell, not to forget another clever horse actor, Starlight. In “ Wild Blood,” Rex, a wild horse, has a hazardous life of it eluding capture at the hands of an unscrupulous rancher, whom he instinctively hates. The’ rancher has designs on the daughter of a miner avlio had just arrived and had staked a claim, and Rex’s equine mind /prompts him to take sides with the miner and the girl. Life is ifull of hardships for the girl, whose circumstances are poor and she falls victim to the suggestions of the unscrupulous rancher that they go to the city together. Rex plays a prominent part in the chase after the subsequent fleeing couple, and enlists the aid of his herd of wild horses to mete out justice to the villain. The stampede of wild horses in the climax of the picture is replete with thrills and provides a fitting conclusion to a thoroughly entertaining screen attraction. A topical and comedy complete the display to-night.
