FLOWING GOLD.’’

Author Beach has chosen for the setting of his story a small town m Texas which had. been thrown into a furore by the discovery of oil in the vicinity. It immediately becomes the Mecca of fortune-seekers and ad-, venturers of every kind, among whom are Calvin Gray and Hemy Nelson. Nelson, a former army officer, has gone there to become rich, .Gray to avenge himself on Nelson because the latter had been instrumental in getting him dishonourably discharged from the army. The enmity between the two men i<s intensified when both fall in love with the same girl. Many attempts are made to “get” Gray, but lie frustrates the plots and eventually lias the joy of seeing his enemyrthe loser in the battle of wits. This picture, which is to be shown to-morrow night, features Anna Q. Nilsson and Milton Sills.
